Huawei held a big event yesterday with the launch of its P60 series regular flagship and Mate X3 foldable top-of-the-line dog. This was followed by the Matepad 11 2023 tablet, the Enjoy 60 mid-range smartphone, and the FreeBuds 5 TWS headphones, but even that wasn't done. We also got the Freebuds Pro 2+, an enhanced version of its top-quality TWS headphones.
The Freebuds Pro 2+ is largely identical to the Pro 2, but with the addition of several new sensors. These track heart rate and temperature, allowing them to better adapt to your active lifestyle. The company says that this is the industry's first infrared and green dual type heart rate monitoring, which can achieve higher accuracy.
Thanks to the addition of sensors, the left earbud has increased in weight by 0.2 grams and now weighs 6.3 grams, while the right earbud and existing ones weigh 6.1 grams. Free Headphones Pro 2.

Other than that, it's the TWS headphones of the same quality that we really liked in our reviews. You get a 52g case and a 580mAh battery (plus a 55mAh battery in each earbud) that supports USB-C wired and Qi wireless charging.
You get 11mm dynamic drivers and micro tweeters, touch controls, and reliable active noise cancellation. The Bluetooth version is 5.2, and the overall protection level is IP54, which is resistant to dust and splashes.
