For features, the earbuds still run on Apple’s H1 chip, enabling a familiar set of functions including Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), Transparency mode, Adaptive EQ, Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking, automatic device switching, Audio Sharing, and hands-free Siri. FaceTime calls also benefit from Dolby Atmos spatial audio.
