The FreeBuds Pro 5 are compatible with a range of audio codecs, including AAC, SBC, LDAC, and L2HC. They feature an in-ear, stem-style design and are supplied with silicone eartips. The accompanying charging case presents a pill-shaped form factor.
Regarding connectivity and durability, the earbuds support Bluetooth 6.0 and multi-device pairing. The charging case is rated IP54 for dust and water resistance, while the earbuds themselves possess an IP57 rating.
Battery performance is estimated to provide up to 8 hours of continuous playback on a single charge with ANC disabled, extending to 33 hours when utilizing the charging case. With ANC enabled, the earbuds are projected to offer up to 5 hours of listening time, and up to 22 hours with the case.
