Huawei has today announced the FreeBuds 3 — the world’s first open-fit, active noise cancellation Bluetooth earphones — are now available in a limited-edition Valentine Red version, just in time for those looking for the perfect gift. This comes as Huawei announces exclusive new deals on gifts, including the full FreeBuds 3 range and select Watch GT 2 Sport models.
