Huawei brings the only Airy C-Bridge, Open-Ear TWS to the Philippines, releasing on Feb. 19

Published Feb 17, 2026 02:22 pm
Huawei introduces the Huawei FreeClip 2, the next evolution of open-ear listening, designed for users who want premium sound, all-day comfort, and a truly secure fit, with a “never feel, never fall” experience that keeps them aware of their surroundings. Built around Huawei’s signature Airy C-Bridge Design, this functional tech accessory elevates the feel and sound of open-ear earbuds with an effortless, barely-there wearing experience and intelligent, crystal-clear audio for listeners who are always on the go.
The Huawei Airy C-Bridge is scheduled for release on Feb. 19.
Fashionable styles and secure fit with the Airy C-Bridge Design
The Huawei FreeClip 2 helps users move through long workdays, active routines, and social events without feeling weighed down. Building on the success of the first-generation FreeClip, the Huawei FreeClip 2 introduces a lighter, softer design and a new look. The Acoustic Ball, which houses the audio driver, is contoured and weighted to sit naturally near the ear canal, directing sound precisely while maintaining an open-ear design. It is balanced by the Comfort Bean, a broad, soft contact surface that provides a stable, ergonomic fit. When gently rested behind the ear, it distributes pressure across a wider area, delivering a truly comfortable wearing experience even after hours of continuous use.
At the core of this evolution is the upgraded Airy C-Bridge Design, crafted from skin-friendly liquid silicone and a high-performance shape-memory alloy that is 25% softer than the previous generation and has been tested to withstand over 25,000 bends (equivalent to daily use for around seven years at 10 bends per day).
With each earbud weighing just 5.1 grams and optimized using data from more than 10,000 ear samples, the Huawei FreeClip 2 adapts naturally to different ear shapes, helping users move freely without readjusting or worrying about slippage. Whether you’re walking between meetings, heading out for a workout, or catching up with friends, it stays comfortably in place while blending seamlessly into your everyday look.
Designed as both cutting-edge audio technology and a fashion statement, the Huawei FreeClip 2 is more than just an audio device—it’s wearable tech jewelry. It comes in a range of trendy colorways to match every style and mood. Users can choose from Denim Blue, inspired by classic denim textures, for a relaxed yet fashion-forward look; White for a clean, elegant aesthetic; Black for a bold, modern finish; and Rose Gold for a soft, refined touch. Select color variants also feature a fine-grained denim texture across the C-bridge and charging case.
To further personalize the look, users can style their HUAWEI FreeClip 2 with interchangeable accessories, including Star Design, Butterfly Design, Flake Design, and Tassel Design. These stylish accessories transform the earbuds into expressive accents that pair effortlessly with everything from casual streetwear to polished workday ensembles.
Crystal-clear calls with an adaptive multi-mic system
The Huawei FreeClip 2 pushes open-ear audio further by delivering clearer sound and more reliable calls in real-world environments. Equipped with an advanced three-microphone system, including a Voice Pick Up (VPU) bone-conduction microphone, the earbuds use a multi-channel DNN noise-cancellation algorithm to isolate voices and suppress background noise, keeping conversations clear even in crowded streets, busy cafés, or windy outdoor settings.
At the heart of its audio performance is Huawei’s first powerful dual-diaphragm driver in a True Wireless Stereo (TWS) design, engineered to deliver impressive sound in a compact form factor. This innovation boosts volume and bass performance by 100% compared to the previous generation, delivering fuller, more dynamic audio for music, podcasts, and video calls.
An integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) AI Processor further elevates the listening experience by enabling faster, more precise audio processing. With Adaptive Volume, the Huawei FreeClip 2 detects ambient noise and automatically adjusts playback to keep content clear, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. Meanwhile, Adaptive Voice Enhancement intelligently amplifies voices based on both the content being played and the surrounding noise. Whether taking a call on a busy sidewalk or listening to an audiobook during a commute, voices stay crisp and intelligible.
All-day listening experience with long-lasting battery and IP57 protection
The Huawei FreeClip 2 offers up to nine hours of listening on a single charge and up to 38 hours with its charging case, keeping users connected from morning to night. With fast-charging support that delivers up to 3 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge, the earbuds are always ready when time is limited.
The Huawei FreeClip 2 also supports dual-device connection, allowing seamless switching between devices, ideal for hybrid work, creative multitasking, and on-the-go lifestyles. Compatibility across iOS and Android devices ensures a smooth, uninterrupted experience throughout the day.
Designed for active lifestyles, the HUAWEI FreeClip 2 features IP57 water resistance, protecting against sweat, splashes, and dust. Intuitive gesture and head-motion controls, including swipe, tap, and nod or shake, allow users to manage volume, playback, and calls effortlessly, completing an open-ear experience that feels natural, responsive, and ready for everyday use.
Enjoy seamless comfort and crystal-clear audio with the Huawei FreeClip 2
The only Airy C-Bridge open-ear TWS with unmatched comfort, a secure fit, and supreme audio, the HUAWEI FreeClip 2 is designed for those who move between work, workouts, and everyday life without missing a beat, offering a seamless, stylish extension to busy lifestyles with clear sound.
