Huawei FreeClips earbuds debut in India at ₹14999 with open-ear design and smart features
Huawei has introduced its FreeClips earbuds in India, marking the arrival of a new open-ear audio product in the market. The FreeClips stand out due to their distinct C-bridge design, which positions the speaker on one end and a grip on the other, allowing the earbuds to rest on the outside of the ear rather than fitting inside the ear canal like traditional models. Huawei FreeClips earbuds with open-ear C-bridge design and multi-device connectivity features launched in India. (HUAWEI) Huawei FreeClips Earbuds: Open-Ear Design and Audio Features This open-ear structure means users can remain aware of their surroundings while listening, as the earbuds do not block the ear canal. However, this also means that the FreeClips do not offer active noise cancellation, so ambient sounds remain audible. To manage this, Huawei has equipped the earbuds with a microphone system that uses a multi-channel deep neural network algorithm to reduce background noise and improve voice clarity during calls. Also read: Prowatch X review: Budget-friendly option from Lava for everyday fitness tracking Each earbud contains a 10.8mm dual-magnet driver, which works with a dynamic bass algorithm to deliver balanced sound with clear vocals and deep bass. The earbuds allow users to switch the left and right pieces freely, which provides flexibility in how they wear them. Huawei claims that the FreeClips offer up to eight hours of continuous audio playback on a single charge. The included charging case extends this to a total of 36 hours. Fast charging support enables a quick 10-minute charge to provide up to three hours of playback. Gesture controls cover multiple parts of the earbuds, including areas called the 'Acoustic Ball,' 'C-bridge,' and 'Comfort Bean.' Users can also handle calls by simply nodding or shaking their heads, thanks to integrated motion controls.

Similar designs have appeared before, such as Samsung's Galaxy Buds Live, which have a unique kidney bean shape. Another comparable product is the Noise Air Clips, which also uses a C-shaped frame and comes at a much lower price point. Huawei's FreeClips are priced at Rs. 14,999, which places them in a higher price segment. Also read: Sennheiser Accentum True Wireless review: Impressive noise cancellation capability at Rs.12,990 The earbuds support connection to two devices at the same time, and are compatible with iOS, Android, and Windows platforms. Customers in India can buy the Huawei FreeClips through Amazon India and The earbuds come in Beige, Purple, and Black colours and are now available at the listed price.

India's watch market is set to expand from US$ 3.2 billion in 2024 to US$ 5.13 billion by 2033, with a CAGR of 5.28%. The surge is driven by increasing disposable incomes and high demand for smartwatches and luxury watches. Popular brands like Titan, Apple, and Rolex dominate in various segments. Online retail channels contribute significantly to market growth by improving consumer access to diverse brands. Key challenges include counterfeit competition and shifting preferences towards smart devices. Indian Watch Market Dublin, May 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "India Watch Market Size and Share Analysis - Growth Trends and Forecast Report 2025-2033" has been added to offering. India's watch market, valued at US$ 3.2 billion in 2024, is set to reach US$ 5.13 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 5.28% from 2025 to 2033 This growth is driven by rising disposable incomes, increased demand for smartwatches, and a growing penchant for luxury and branded timepieces. The market is divided by types such as quartz, electronic, and mechanical watches, price ranges like luxury and non-luxury, and distribution channels including hypermarkets, convenience stores, and online platforms. Key players in India's domestic market like Titan, Fastrack, and Sonata face competition from international luxury brands such as Rolex, Omega, and Casio. The surge in smartwatch usage, championed by Apple, Samsung, and Noise, highlights a tech-savvy consumer base. Moreover, watches have transcended their role as mere timekeepers to become fashion statements and status symbols. The burgeoning middle class, along with e-commerce growth, underpins the market's trajectory. The rise of smartwatches has been significant, fueled by health consciousness and digital connectivity. Apple, Samsung, and local brands like Noise dominate this segment, integrating fitness and smartphone features that appeal to urban consumers. Indian brand Lava's Prowatch X exemplifies the trend towards integrating technology with affordability in wearables. E-commerce giants like Amazon and Flipkart have revolutionized the retail landscape, providing consumers with access to a wide range of brands and models. Online platforms offer competitive pricing, financing options, and immersive shopping experiences, such as Amazon's "Watch and Shop" feature, enhancing customer engagement and broadening market reach. However, challenges persist. The market contends with unorganized sectors and counterfeit products that erode brand authenticity. Additionally, as digital devices become prevalent, consumer preference shifts away from traditional mechanical and quartz watches. Brands must innovate and incorporate technological advancements to maintain relevance. The electronic watch segment, led by smartwatches, is the fastest growing, appealing to tech enthusiasts with features like fitness tracking. Mechanical watches, while niche, hold prestige among luxury collectors, with brands such as Rolex and Omega being favorites. Quartz watches remain a staple for budget-conscious consumers due to their affordability and reliability. The men's watch market is diverse, catering to preferences for both elegance and functionality. The luxury sector is expanding, driven by increasing disposable income and the desire for high-end brands. Convenience stores and online platforms have democratized access to watches, offering affordable options that cater to everyday needs.
