As for new features, Apple describes them as minimal, which is typical. The latest firmware versions, 7B20 and 7B21, are said to include bug fixes and other improvements. However, this isn’t very informative Apple should update their release notes as they did with 7B19, providing detailed information. If bugs are being fixed, users deserve to know what they are.

Another issue it seems like it fixes is head gestures so sometimes this wasn’t working for some people but if you’re using head gestures which is nice to answer a phone call it looks like it’s working so you can shake your head left or right or up or down to either answer or deny a notification or respond to it so that’s great that looks like it works fine now and the options are here with your different head gestures if you want to utilize that it looks like it’s working fine for everyone.

In terms of overall noise cancellation, after the latest firmware update, it’s working very perfectly with the noise cancellation feature with this now you can’t find background noise while listening to music.
