not a fan of huawei earbuds but I got a pair as a present.
Only use I see for this thing is to listen to music with my notebook and maybe with the android device (an asus with android 8).
I’ve never used wireless earbuds, so I have no idea how to start.
Help appreciated
You should be able to pair them just like any Bluetooth audio device, providing your system has a Bluetooth radio chip in it. Most laptops made in the last 10 years do. I use my Redmi buds on my desktop and laptop without issue.
They aren’t proprietary, they’re Bluetooth.
Pair them with your computer and they’ll work.
What do you mean, “proprietary”? Don’t they connect via Bluetooth?
They generally all connect over Bluetooth so should work just fine.
The only sticking point may be if Linux doesn’t have the proper codecs like aptX or LDAC (and the earbuds support them) you won’t get as high quality audio as you should.
I’ve had no problems with LDAC. There is a free software LDAC decoder in Debian.
Yeah. It will almost certainly work, but you might not get the same quality as you get on Android. Check the specs of your specific model of earbuds to see which codecs they support. LDAC should work on Debian, but as far as I know Huawei’s proprietary L2HC codec does not work on Linux.
I’m not 100% sure about this since I’ve never used Huawei earbuds myself.
AirPods work so… how much more proprietary can you get? :P
How are they connected?
If it’s through bluetooth, that should be perfectly fine.
Check the debian wiki for instructions.
