How Does Noise Cancellation Work on AirPods Pro?
Noise cancelling is a feature of the AirPods Pro dubbed Noise Control. Noise Cancellation and Transparency are the two types of noise control. Both improve your listening experience by filtering out background noise. It also means that you can listen at a lesser volume and avoid hearing damage.
Noise Control detects ambient sound levels using the AirPods’ built-in microphone and filters them using the software. Transparency Mode permits some sounds, such as voices, to pass through with the expectation that you will still wish to hear them. Noise cancellation is a little unusual. It shuts out as much sound as possible, giving you the sensation of being completely immersed in what you’re listening to while substantially lowering the noise level of everything around you.
