The Mi Air 2 Pro will feature 12 mm drivers and a choice of aptX Adaptive and LHDC V3 audio codecs. The latter promises sub-100 ms latency, aptX Adaptive is a low latency codec as well (50-80 ms).

The active noise cancellation will be improved to 35 dB reduction, which matches Apple’s AirPods Pro. There will be a “transparent” mode to disable ANC temporarily.
