Pro has supported Snapdragon Sound" pop-up window, while the headset with other certified devices can also cross brand restrictions to provide a quality wireless listening experience.
Noise Cancellation Experience
In order to achieve a better comprehensive noise reduction effect, TWS 3 Pro allows the new independent professional audio chip and Qualcomm S5 audio Soc chip together, with a new optimized acoustic algorithm, so that the noise reduction depth of 49dB, effectively eliminate wind noise, human voice, and can adapt to the environment intelligent adjustment; noise reduction bandwidth of 4000Hz, in addition to the subway, aircraft roar and other heavy low frequency noise, the human voice, crying In addition to subway, aircraft roar and other heavy low-frequency noise, human voice, crying and other medium and high frequency noise can also be better abated.
There are three noise cancellation modes to choose from: daily deep, regular and light. You can also turn on intelligent dynamic noise cancellation, which supports dynamic detection of environmental noise and changes in wearing status, and adapts to match the most appropriate noise cancellation mode to avoid excessive ear pressure or insufficient noise cancellation depth caused by improper noise cancellation strength, providing the most appropriate noise cancellation experience continuously and steadily.

After turning on the intelligent dynamic noise cancellation function, we tested several different scenarios in the order from quiet to noisy.
The actual experience, the headset adjusts the response speed of noise reduction intensity is very fast. In the office with a light noise cancellation can eliminate the noise generated by the air conditioning and computer host operation, while ear pressure is low, long time use is also very comfortable.
Moving outdoors, where the noise is much louder and more complex, the TWS 3 Pro also performs well, suppressing most of the noise, whether it's from an outside air conditioner or a parking lot area.
When you walk to the roadside, TWS 3 Pro recognizes the loud noise generated by passing vehicles and increases the noise reduction intensity, effectively weakening the heavy low frequency noise and overlaying a little music to easily cover up most of the noise. This also applies when riding the subway and bus, leaving more quiet for the ears, better hearing protection, and avoiding the impact of noise on the mood.
TWS 3 Pro's noise cancellation performance is strong enough, the strength of the same series of TWS 3 should not be underestimated, thanks to the ultra-wide frequency sound unit and noise reduction algorithm doubled the chip platform, Vivo TWS 3 maximum noise reduction depth of up to 48dB, compared to the previous generation noise reduction depth increased to 1.8 times, noise reduction bandwidth range also reached 4000Hz, the actual experience of the comprehensive noise reduction effect can be said to be where to play The actual experience of the comprehensive noise reduction effect can be said to be where to play, the results can completely play into the first echelon.

The actual experience, we randomly selected a few pop and rock style songs for listening, TWS 3 Pro's performance can be said to prove their true wireless Hi-Fi headphones "strength. The sound of rustling insects for about 10 seconds before the intro is played on the TWS 3 Pro is so detailed that it makes people feel as if there are real insects around. 1:39 onwards the bass effect in the backing track is also strong. The sound of Pang's voice has an ethereal, stripped-down feel, and it expresses bitter love songs with a distinctive flavor.
The song "Radio Ga Ga", the title track of Queen's album "The Works", not only returns to rock style, but also adds a lot of synthpop elements, while the arrangement is more commercial and the lyrics are catchy, which broke the charts in many countries back then and still endures. Listening to the song with TWS 3 Pro, the effect is still quite shocking, the performance and electronic music are interwoven, the sound of many instruments are accurately restored, and the layers are clear and rich in detail, combined with the perfect interpretation of the lead singer, the single loop is very catchy, often can not help but follow the line "Radio Ga Ga" followed by The "Radio Goo Goo" is very enjoyable.
It is worth mentioning that the 360° surround space audio function is also strongly logged in TWS 3 Pro, supporting head tracking technology, real-time adjustment of the head surround sound field, realistic reproduction of the real sound environment, and the adaptation strength is also quite sincere, supporting the mainstream music platform sources, as well as Akiyon and Youku multi-channel sources, can not go to concerts to listen to live, to the cinema to watch blockbuster days, you can also use TWS 3 Pro at home to enjoy a different way.
