WATCH THE SOUND

Huawei’s latest innovation combines a smartwatch and True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earbuds in a single convenient device.

The Huawei Watch Buds is a smartwatch that houses the earbuds inside it. With just one push of the crown, the dial pops up like a pocket watch. The two earbuds are held on the other side of the dial with the help of an attachable magnetic design. The buds can be taken out smoothly from any angle without having to exert any force.

The Watch Buds comes with a stainless steel case, a 1.43-inch circular AMOLED screen and a full-grain leather strap. The device weighs only 66.5g excluding the strap, while each individual earbud comes in at 4g making them easy and light to wear. The earbuds have a compact form and in-ear design that provides good passive noise cancellation. It weakens surrounding ambient noise when the active noise cancellation function is switched on. The buds also come with innovative wide-area touch controls. Users can just tap their ears to access multiple functions such as answering or rejecting a call, playing or pausing a song and even enabling or disabling noise cancellation.

Moreover, the Huawei Watch Buds include various fitnesstracking functions such as sleep tracking and analysis, blood oxygen level check and smart heart rate monitoring. The device has a battery life of three days and is compatible with both Android and iOS devices through the Huawei Health Connect app. ✤

Performance Meets Accessibility

Sennheiser has launched the Profile USB Microphone offering an easy and stylish solution for enhanced streaming and podcasting applications.

With the steady rise of podcasting and streaming content across the world, the Profile USB Microphone with a cardioid condenser was created to provide a simplistic plug-and-play device that offers high-quality audio and design. Cardioid mics pick up sounds from the front only and condenser mics are very sensitive to sound, which allows this product to offer a sharp audio quality. Suitable for those starting out and seasoned professionals alike, the device delivers a natural, warm sound that accentuates the body and presence of the human voice.

The Profile USB Microphone has three fundamental controls: Gain Control to adjust the sensitivity of the mic, effectively setting the level for users’ sessions. Mix Control can be used to balance the microphone with users’ device audio and monitor what matters most in the mix. A dedicated Volume Control is available to set headphone audio levels, while a softtouch mute button allows users to silence their microphone discreetly. A multi-function LED ring turns from green to orange to indicate when the signal is too hot with distortions. Quality audio is dependent on microphone placement. The Profile Streaming Set features an adjustable boom arm with a sleek and modern design, ideal for on-camera applications.

Integrated cable management and an included three-metre USB-C cable provide flexibility with positioning and help to maintain a clutter-free workspace. ✤
