It can offer up to 31dB of noise cancellation. It also includes an ‘Auto Mode’ that adjusts for noise reduction and ambient sound based on the environment, with different settings for Street, Commuting, and Home.

As for audio input, the earbuds use a combination of air-conduction and bone-conduction microphones to better isolate the user’s voice from surrounding noise. The ASUS ROG TWS Speednova offers a total battery life of 46 hours with Bluetooth and 36 hours with 2.4 GHz connectivity. The earbuds feature customizable ASUS Aura RGB lighting and are available in black and white. They retain features like wireless charging and an IPX4 rating for water resistance.
