The FreeBuds Pro 2+ has built-in the industry’s first three-dimensional multi-sensor architecture intelligent temperature measurement algorithm and realizes 3D temperature measurement.

This pair could enable abnormal heart rate notifications, and health data sync in real-time. This headset brings the joint efforts of Huawei and Devialet. On the other hand, the FreeBuds Pro 2+ uses dual units (a four-magnet dynamic unit and micro-panel tweeter).
