Honor has quietly unveiled its latest true wireless earbuds — the Honor Earbuds 4 — a feature-rich pair designed to deliver premium sound and effective noise control without a premium price tag.
With dual titanium-coated drivers, robust ANC, and an impressive battery life, these earbuds aim to take on some of the most capable mid-range rivals.
Dual drivers for balanced, high-fidelity sound
At the core of the Honor Earbuds 4 are two drivers per ear — an 11mm dynamic driver paired with a 6mm micro driver.
Both use titanium-coated diaphragms, chosen for their rigidity and responsiveness, resulting in crisp treble, full-bodied mids, and tight bass response.
This dual-driver setup gives the Earbuds 4 an edge in clarity and range, allowing them to handle complex tracks with depth and precision. Honor says the tuning has been optimized for both everyday listening and cinematic audio experiences.
Up to 50dB noise cancellation with ambient awareness
The Earbuds 4 come equipped with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) capable of cutting ambient noise by up to 50 decibels — one of the highest ratings in their class. Whether on a busy commute or in a crowded café, users can expect a quieter, more focused listening experience.
For safety and convenience, two transparency modes let in environmental sounds such as traffic or voices — ideal for joggers or commuters who want to stay aware of their surroundings.
Long battery life and everyday durability
Battery life is another highlight. On their own, the earbuds can last up to 5 hours with ANC enabled, or up to 25 hours with the charging case. Turn off noise cancellation, and total playback stretches to 46 hours, making them reliable companions for travel or workdays.
The Earbuds 4 also meet IP54 dust and water resistance standards, offering protection against light rain or sweat. A low-latency mode ensures smooth synchronization for gaming or watching videos — reducing lag between audio and visuals.
Refined design at an affordable price
Honor has kept things elegant yet understated. The Earbuds 4 come in two color finishes, each accented with metallic highlights on both the earbuds and the charging case. The design feels modern and premium, aligning with the brand’s current minimalist aesthetic.
Priced at around $49 in China, the Honor Earbuds 4 deliver a mix of advanced features and solid build quality rarely seen at this price point. Global release details are yet to be confirmed, but given Honor’s growing global momentum, wider availability seems likely in the near future.
