The headphones maintain the [open-ear design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/openear-audio-technology) of the original, but sees them transformed with metallic finishes that are complemented by decorative accessories created exclusively for the brand by Les Néréides. The accessories include such accents as bees and flowers, which transform the tech product into a piece of jewelry as a nod to its permanent placement in the lifestyle of many consumers. The Huawei FreeClip 2 S Signature Edition earbuds have also had their charging case redesigned to expand internal storage space by 20%, but still keep it small enough for everyday use.
