"Calls: 10/10 ... in a dynamic loud noise environment ... test the HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 3 to actually know how the Best Call Quality should sound like"
"The noise-reduction on these is really remarkable, both as a listener, but especially for the other person on a phone call. I can finally walk along the beach, with wind blowing in from the ocean, and people can hear and understand me clearly! That is what set me on a quest to find new earbuds, and Huawei freebuds pro 3 deliver! ... I can ride my bike in wind and traffic noise, listening to music or podcasts, and then answer a phone call without missing a beat, and the other person can hear me clearly. ... If you are looking for an earbud that will let you ride your bike on the boardwark, with ocean wind and people and traffic, and take calls effortlessly, where people can hear you clearly without having to stop or find shelter or hold your phone closer...the Huawei freebuds pro 3 are the way to go. ... So, yes. I am still happy with them, and they are awesome at being able to have a coherent conversation even while walking along a windy, noisy beach."
"I wanted really good call quality because I take a lot of calls when I'm on a call in central City, and they have been amazing. ... I take a call in a cafe full of people and crying kids and the other person can't hear a thing"

"They block out almost all the noise in loud environments in my testing. ... I tested them in cafe's, city streets, and sometimes construction sites. ... They do a phenomenal job with call ENC"
"the ANC is literally on par with the best from Sony and Bose."
"I think the best earbuds with noise rejection (wind and otherwise) are the Huawei Freebuds Pro 3 or Pro 4."

"I am happy to say that the Huawei freebuds pro 3 work GREAT with an Apple ecosystem. Pairing with my iPhone first and then Macbook, the multipoint bluetooth just works. I can listen to a podcast on my phone, and then watch a video on the laptop, and then take a call on my phone, and then join a slack or teams meeting on the computer, and it all just works. No fiddling with the app or anything like that."
"Multi-point pairing has worked great for me (Galaxy S23, Pixel Watch 3, Windows desktop, and Steamdeck)."
"they keep a solid connection when my phone is in my pocket, or when my laptop is stationary and I am walking around the house...they are less finicky about position or distance than the airpods, which was surprising to me."

"I work 11-hour overnight shifts and use them on low volume, ANC turned off, for background ambiance. I easily get the quoted 6-8 hours of battery life outside the case."
"Battery is really great!! (9/10)"

"Huawei appears to have zero customer support in the US, which is worth knowing. ... No warranty service, no non-warranty service, just no way to reach anyone for help with anything, other than the info on their website. ... All of their customer support channels appear to ask first which country you are in, and if you pick USA, it dead-ends. ... If you buy these and you live in the US, it's important to know that you will be wholly reliant on the seller's return/service/warranty policy, because Huawei may as well have gone out of business, from what I can tell. ... I bought my first pair on Amazon, evidently through Amazon marketplace, although I wasn't paying attention at the time. They worked fine for just over a month, and then one earbud started to have intermittent problems where it was outputting a low, constant hum and crackly audio, or sometimes no sound."

"I tried to find right EQ for me for almost half and a year and still not satisfied. ... Yes, the sound is good, but there is some points like soundstage, bass and sibilance which you can't adjust with EQ fully. ... Yes, you can reduce those effects, but with loose of overall sound brightness and etc. ... in this Huawei I had to try change something and unable to find something good."
"the bass lacks volume, mid bass is strictly reduced."
"highs are very sharp and can cause sibilance in female vocal."

"there is no ability to activate LDAC in PC. Because you need to activate it through the app on every device you are listening for, and there is no app for Windows or MacOS. ... And there are some strange things from Huawei like impossibility to use LDAC with PC."

"Its not the best for call quality. ... the person on the other side usually here a muffled blur. ... Do not buy this thing if calls are your priority."
"I also opted for a call center style headset with a boom mic for more important calls, because my job is highly dependent on it. This makes my voice much more natural and louder."
