Selecting a pair of ear tips

The earbuds come with three pairs of shape-memory foam ear tips (S-, M-, and L-sized) and four pairs of silicone ear tips (XS-, S-, M-, and L-sized), with the M-sized silicone ear tips attached by default.
Choose the ear tips that provide the desired noise canceling effects and comfort when worn (the following uses the left earbud as an example).
To install the ear tips:

1. Align the slots on the ear tip with the buckles on the earbud.
2. Push the ear tip slot onto the upper buckle and then gently stretch the tip until the slot is attached to the lower buckle.
   
3. Make sure that both ear tips are securely attached.
4. Put on the earbuds. Open the HUAWEI AI Life app, or open the Bluetooth settings, and touch Tip fit test to test the fit. After replacing your ear tips with another pair of a different material, touch Tip type, and select the ear tips in use to match them with the optimal noise cancellation and sound settings.
