HUAWEI FreeBuds SE 4 wireless earbuds, which feature active noise cancellation and up to 50 hours of battery life, can now be secured for £14.24 through a combination of an Argos price reduction and a TopCashback new-member bonus. This represents a significant saving against the original £59.99 retail price.
The deal, highlighted by commerce content editor Harriet Morphy-Morris, requires shoppers to purchase the earbuds from Argos while signing up as a new TopCashback member. New members receive a £15 cashback bonus when spending £15 or more, effectively reducing the £29.99 sale price at Argos to £14.24.
How the £14.24 price is achieved
Existing Argos customers who are new to TopCashback can still reduce the price to £14.74. At checkout, a £4.95 delivery fee is optional, with a free click and collect service available as an alternative.
To secure the deal, shoppers should sign up as a new member at TopCashback for free, search for Argos on the site, click through and buy the item normally, and then receive £15 cashback when spending £15 or more. The cashback will track to the TopCashback 'Earnings page' within seven days of the purchase.
Features and user feedback
The HUAWEI FreeBuds SE 4 combine active noise cancellation with a robust battery life in a stylish pair of earphones. With dynamic sound quality, the pair is said to hold its own against the likes of Apple AirPods and Samsung Galaxy Buds by blocking out background noise without the hefty price tag.
Users have drawn comparisons between the affordable pair and their Apple counterpart. "I would say, same quality as an Apple Pro Earbuds but a Huawei Price tag", remarked one everyday user in their review on Argos.
The earphones offer up to 50 hours of playtime with the charging case, and a mere 10-minute charge delivers four hours of listening. They are also IP54 dust and splash-resistant, and compatible with both iOS and Android.
Alongside being likened to AirPods, FreeBuds SE 4 users have praised the 'superb' battery life and sound quality. As one customer stated: "I am happy with the sound quality, it is clear and has no gritty noise."
Another user said: "The noise cancellation options are great for me...the battery is superb, and I have only charged it once; it has lasted me nine hours of usage so far without needing to charge the case."
Alternative premium earbud deals
For those seeking Apple alternatives, AO is offering a rare £19 discount on AirPod Pro 3s, reducing the Active Noise Cancelling pair from £219 to £200 for non-members, with members paying £196. The AirPod Pro 3s feature a comfy silicone ear tip and heart rate sensors in the buds for workout tracking.
Samsung's Galaxy Buds 4Pro True Wireless are also on sale at £219, with shoppers able to paste in the code BUDS30 to cut the price at checkout. The true wireless design includes adaptive active noise cancellation.
One user of the HUAWEI earbuds noted a minor drawback while praising the overall value: "They're not the most comfortable earbuds I've used, but the sound quality is very good and the battery life is amazing. Honestly, for the price, I was surprised by both the sound and how long they last on a single charge. Overall, great value for money and I'd definitely recommend them."
