Back at IFA 2019, the Huawei unveiled its flagship TWS earphone, the HUAWEI FreeBuds 3. The design of the earphones adopted the complex design of a dolphin’s vocal cavity, providing long lasting comfort and stability. From the earphone to the charging case, the HUAWEI FreeBuds 3 delivers a streamlined design language. During Huawei’s HDC 2020 event, the brand announced their new true wireless stereo (TWS) earphones, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro. From the announcement, we saw that the new HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro adopts a similar yet different design from the previous generations, while also boasting a new iconic look with a wide range of smart features. The latest HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro takes a different approach in the design for a more iconic and premium look. The earphones’ stem forms a recognisable square geometric shape, which is unlike the rounded tube before. This unique design is very rare among the industry as well. Aside for the design purpose, would the stem design offer more interactions with its shape, provide more control on music playback through the earphone itself? The HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro also adopts an in-ear design both for wearing comfort and noise cancellation. In-ear design is undoubtedly providing an extra layer of noise cancellation compare to HUAWEI FreeBuds 3, showing Huawei is dedicated to provide an enhanced noise cancellation experience this time. Still, noise cancellation requires both hardware and software to work together, so we could expect Huawei to announce an upgraded or perhaps more intelligent active noise cancellation technology.

The dust-free installation rooms at the department are used for fitting computercut stone guard protection over the vehicle, which is handled by dedicated vehicle lifts to complete the process.

Thanks to this top-end model, the Volkswagen brand developed into one of the world’s leading full-range providers – and now serves all important segments, from the small city specialist to the high-end SUV. The Touareg itself soon became a best-seller: almost one million car drivers decided in favour of generation one and two (beginning in 2010). The current third generation looks set to continue this successful course. With a new maximum of technological innovations, authentic and dynamic SUV design and high degree of suitability for everyday use. The latest generation has new highlights such as maximum connectivity and some partially automated driving functions that significantly increase convenience and dynamics.
