There are no additional features like noise cancellation. But for the money, these are the best fully wireless headphones. You can give it as the 22nd Birthday Gift.

Pros

Great sound

Reliable for TWS headphones. Excellent treble, good scene elaboration and musical U-shaped frequency response.

Comfortable and secure fit

You can spend 3 hours or more in headphones without discomfort. They will not fall out on the move or on the run.

Compact dimensions

Headphone cases are smaller than most competitors. They don't protrude from the ears at all. It won't even hurt to lie on your side.

Solid build and versatile design

The materials are good, there are no complaints about the assembly. Waterproof IPX7

Headphones look good, though not very bright.

Autonomy up to 10 hours on a single charge

Plus 2.5-3 charges from the case. From 0 to 100%, the earphones are charged in about 1.5 hours.

Bluetooth 5.2 and aptX

Most often, the connection is reliable, there is no desynchronization of picture and sound. aptX support in TWS is always a great and rather rare feature. Headphones work separately.

Minuses

Mediocre voice transmission

As a headset, the headphones can be used without problems only in a quiet environment. But even there the voice of the interlocutor is partially distorted, as well as his own.

 No additional features and applications

Noise reduction, transparency, smart pause, multipoint, fast charge. All this is not. Applications for settings are also not provided. If these points are especially important, it is worth looking at other models.

 Rare problems with Bluetooth communication

The radius of confident work is 7-8 meters, then artifacts begin.

 Heavy case

A nitpick, but still. 😉 And the metal coating can get scratched pretty quickly.
