Moreover, this earphone holds a IP54 weather proof rating for daily use, tap controls and infrared sensors – we will talk more about these features further ahead in this review.

Operation & Control

The have a G-sensor incorporated on each earpiece that allows touch-like use.

Why we say “touch-like”? Because the tech used inside it is not touch sensitive like seen on the Xiaomi Mi Airdots, MEIZU POP or QCY T1 PRO Touch, but tap sensitive through the G-sensor.





Translated into daily use, if you gently touch the back earpieces will not respond, you need to tap no them.

Left earpiece:

  • Double tap: Activate Voice Assistant

Right earpiece:

  • Double tap: Play/pause

Calls Commands:

  • Double tap right earpiece: Answer/end call

LED Status Light: The case of the HUAWEI Flypods Lite has a LED light that informs the status of the device, like: charging, pairing mode, on, etc.

Charging: On the rear bottom of the charging case there is the micro USB port to connect the charger to a USB wall charger. The charging case and the earpieces get charged through this connection. Moreover, each earpiece can get charged on-the-go whenever they are magnetically placed in the charging case.

A full charge takes 1 hours and grants 3 hours of continuous use and 40 hours of standby time. In addition to this, the battery case offers 3 full extra charges, resulting in a total battery life of 12 hours.

Accessories & Packaging

The HUAWEI HONOR FlyPods AM-H1C / Flypods Lite unboxing results in 3 pair of eartips, 1 pair of eartips with an extra silicone ring, a micro USB charging cable, 1 pair of “sport” eartips and the charging/battery pack.

The unit comes inside a square packaging with a small size and a very nice turquoise color.

B

Bass & Sub Bass

The HUAWEI HONOR FlyPods AM-H1C / Flypods Lite has very important punch and remarkably deep bass for a TWS, that will make happy listeners looking for a bass-intense true wireless earphone or who enjoy very energetic listening sessions.

As a reference, the Flypods will not be as balanced as the Lenovo AIR and will offer a bass tuning more inline with the QCY T1 PRO, QCY Q29 PRO.

With an extreme EQ approach, the already powerful bass gets insanely strong, punchy and deep.

Mids & Vocals

The HUAWEI HONOR FlyPods AM-H1C / Flypods Lite mids have very warm and full sound but expect noticeable congestion too.

For a true wireless earphone aimed to consumers, their midrange will be welcomed by many but it will not be a crystal clear sounding earphone that can match audiophile’s demands.

Nonetheless, their relaxed male vocals and sufficiently crisp higher mids might offer a friendly sound for everyday commute.

Moreover, their peaks rarely get excessively hot or harsh.

With an EQ a slight retuning will respond well giving a bit of a cleaner and less congested midrange but do not expect extreme changes.

Highs & Treble

The HUAWEI HONOR FlyPods AM-H1C / Flypods Lite highs are relatively dark but are able to offer a slight trace of brightness as to cover energetic, bass-centered listening sessions or everyday non-critical listening.

Do not expect that the Flypods resolve much detail, though.

On the other hand, sibilance and piercing peaks are nearly never present making them a good match for treble sensitive people.

Fair results with a bump to their brightness and a more open sounding highs can be achieved with a custom EQ.

Sound Leak

SI

Sound Isolation

The sound isolation provided by the HUAWEI HONOR FlyPods AM-H1C / Flypods Lite is about average with even probable a less efficient isolation than many normal earphones.

To their benefit, a partial awareness of the environment will be granted on most occasions. This noise awareness of the surroundings will be a useful feature for activities where this is needed or if users prefer not to be totally isolated from their environment.

Comfort

Response to Equalization

The response to EQ of the Flypods Lite showed important empowering of their bass, cleaner mids and vocals and a much more open and brighter sound without introducing significant deterioration of the sound.
