Honor has launched the Earbuds Clip-On Pro in China, its latest open-ear audio device.
The earbuds feature a cuff-like design that clips onto the outer ear, priced at 599 yuan (approximately $88).
Design and Build
The Earbuds Clip-On Pro use a C-shaped chassis with aerospace-grade nickel-titanium memory wire. A three-point support structure distributes weight evenly for secure fit during workouts.
The earbuds come in Prism Black and Rose Gold with polished metallic accents. They carry an IP55 rating for dust and water resistance.
Audio and Microphone
Each earbud is equipped with 10.8mm dual-magnetic titanium-coated drivers. They support the LHDC 5.0 codec and have Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification.
To reduce sound leakage, Honor incorporated a reverse acoustic system.
For calls, a triple-microphone setup includes two air-conduction mics and one bone-conduction VPU, paired with AI noise reduction that filters wind noise up to 9 m/s.
Smart Features
The earbuds integrate with Honor's YOYO voice assistant, accessible via touch or voice commands. The companion app offers real-time dual-ear translation, automatic transcription, and smart summarization.
The assistant can read notifications aloud, reducing the need to check the phone. Connectivity includes Bluetooth 5.4 and dual-device pairing across Android, iOS, and HarmonyOS.
Automatic wear detection and intelligent left/right channel recognition simplify usage.
Battery Life
Each earbud houses a 56mAh battery, providing up to 11 hours of standalone playback with voice wake-up off.
The 500mAh charging case extends total battery life to 47 hours.
Recharging the earbuds takes about 50 minutes, while the USB-C case charges in just over an hour.
Alongside the earbuds, Honor also unveiled the Honor 600 series smartphones, Watch 6 Plus, and Pad 20 tablet.
