Alongside the launch of the Honor 50 series of smartphones, the company also unveiled its new TWS earbuds - the Honor Earbuds 2 SE.

Honor Earbuds 2 SE Overview:

To note, this is Honor's first set of earbuds after its separation from Huawei. The Earbuds 2 SE comes in a stem design and silicone tips to secure it into your ears. It has a glossy finish and fits in a rectangular charging case. Each bud weighs about 5.5 grams and is IPX4 certified for water resistance. Honor Earbuds 2 SE comes in two color options: Magic Night Black and Iceland White

Features

In terms of specs, the Earbuds 2 SE brings Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). It is driven by a moving coil unit with a 10mm polymer composite diaphragm. Similarly, like with many Honor earbuds, it features a transparency mode that allows you to listen to ambient sound without removing the earbud. Furthermore, there is a low-latency gaming option that is only available on devices running Magic UI 4.0 or higher. When making calls, it brings a dual microphone AI call noise reduction feature that employs beamforming technology to decrease background sound like wind noise.

Battery and Controls

The earbuds pack a 55mAh cell each and Honor is promising up to 10 hours of listening time with ANC turned off or 7.5 hours with ANC enabled. The charging case, on the other hand, contains a 410mAh battery and can provide up to 32 hours of playback. Its USB-C connector also supports fast charging. According to Honor, a 10-minute charge will provide 4 hours of listening time. You can operate it via capacitive touch controls built into the stem of both earbuds. A double-tap on either the left or right earpiece will play/pause music or accept/end a call. Similarly, long-tapping on either earbud activates or deactivates ANC and transparency mode.
