The 'FreeBuds Lipstick,' created by HUAWEI's Paris Aesthetics Research Centre, has debuted in Canada for a limited time. This pair of earbuds places an emphasis on luxury designer aesthetics and is inspired by high-end lipstick cosmetics. The case that holds and charges the FreeBuds Lipstick is metallic black with a metallic gold stripe. Under the black lid is a shiny gold base that holds the two deep red earbuds, which resemble lipstick coming out of its holder.

The physical design of the earbuds emerged as a result of testing on more than 10,000 human ear models and creating a product that comfortably fit within every ear, even under motion-intense situations. These headphones do not compromise on audio quality either. The earbuds feature a sample rate of 48 kHz and AEM EQ adjustment through the 'HUAWEI AI Life App.'

The FreeBuds Lipstick will be available from February 1st to 10th for $348.99 CAD.
