HONOR Earbuds Open: Light, Comforta...

The HONOR Earbuds Open have just been announced at MWC 2025. The earbuds’ open-ear concept allows for comfortable wear while providing decent sound isolation. The ergonomic design makes them easy to put on and take off, and the lightweight construction (just 7.9g per earbud) means they won’t weigh you down. Additionally, the open ear design might be a better fit for users who suffer from various irritations when using in-ear audio devices.

According to the specs, the audio quality sounds (pun intended) impressive, with claimed clear and crisp sound and good bass response. The surround sound feature should add a layer to your listening experience, making it feel like you’re in the middle of the action when watching movies or listening to a concert. Of course, we’ll have to try this later because a tradeshow is hardly the best place to gauge audio quality.

An interesting feature of the HONOR Earbuds Open is their AI-powered language translation capabilities, which support 15 languages. The industry has been working on this for the past decades, but with advances in cloud and AI technologies, we expect steady improvements. The question is whether the feature works well enough to allow for real-world usage. In our experience, text translators have been game changers (esp in places like China, Japan), and the same thing could be true for this concept.

The earbuds should have you covered in terms of battery life. With up to 6 hours of music playback on a single charge and an additional 22 hours with the charging case, you won’t need to worry about running out of juice anytime soon.

The HONOR Earbuds Open, seems like a great product in an extremely competitive market.
