How to Make Crystal-Clear Calls Even in the Middle of a Concert

Yelling at your smartphone’s mic is often the only way to get the person on the other end of the call to hear you when you are in the middle of a concert, club or in the gym trying to talk over loud music. If you are wearing earbuds, you’re forced to either raise your voice like you’re calling for help or take one out and switch to your phone’s mic. It’s clumsy, awkward, and frankly outdated.

That’s why a new feature on the HUAWEI FreeBuds 6 is catching attention. The earbuds offer advanced call noise cancellation that manages to keep voices clear, even in environments with noise levels as high as 95dB – comparable to a live rock concert or a packed movie theatre. In testing, voices on the other end of a call sounded surprisingly crisp, even during high-energy activities like a Zumba session. It’s a notable step forward for anyone who’s ever had to shout over background noise just to be heard.

For those who rely on Bluetooth earbuds, this represents an innovative step forward in voice clarity. The key lies in the new VPU bone conduction microphone built into the FreeBuds 6. Instead of relying solely on traditional microphones, this system detects micro-vibrations traveling through your facial bones as you speak. Because these vibrations aren’t affected by surrounding noise, the earbuds are able to isolate your voice more effectively, even in loud environments.

The HUAWEI FreeBuds 6 also utilises an improved AI call noise cancellation algorithm. With this smarter algorithm, the earbuds perform combined noise cancellation on the sound signals collected by different microphones to improve call noise cancellation performance.

Most notably, the FreeBuds 6 brings the added benefit of Active Noise Cancellation despite the open-fit design. That means not only does the other person hear you clearly, but you too can hear them effortlessly. With noise on both ends being dealt with, what remains is an interruption-free calling experience.

So, taking clear and quiet calls at concerts is not magic. It’s just the result of some thoughtful engineering in the FreeBuds 6. The same approach applies to its Dual Driver acoustics, which deliver an impressive range of sound, from incredible highs to deep, thundering lows.
