Huawei Launches FreeBuds 7i in Germany With Spatial Audio and ANC for €99.99

Early reviews cite strong comfort, with limited ANC plus awkward app access challenging non‑Huawei users.

Overview

  • The earbuds introduce Spatial Audio with head‑tracking via an onboard IMU, a first for Huawei’s i‑series, alongside Hi‑Res certification and an 11 mm quad‑magnet driver.
  • Independent tests report effective reduction of low, constant noise, yet high frequencies remain audible, so noise cancellation falls short of full hush.
  • Reviewers describe clear detail and good imaging but note thin bass, restrained mids, and occasionally harsh treble depending on the track.
  • Huawei’s AI Life app unlocks EQ, ANC tuning, and firmware updates, though it is absent from Google Play and typically must be sideloaded or installed via AppGallery.
  • Battery life measured about 6.5 hours with ANC on in testing, with a 10‑minute quick charge yielding over 3 additional hours and a manufacturer claim of up to 35 hours including the case.
