Vivo TWS 5 Pro Specifications and Features
The Vivo TWS 5 Pro adopts an in-ear design and comes equipped with four microphones, including two analogue and two digital microphones, along with a VPU bone-conduction microphone. This setup enables active noise cancellation of up to 60dB, while the environmental call noise reduction feature is claimed to suppress surrounding noise by as much as 100dB during voice calls.

Users have the option to switch between multiple sound profiles that include Standard, Clear Vocals, Deep Bass, Bright Treble, Audiobook and Ultimate Mastery, depending on the users' personal listening preferences.
One of the most standout features in the earbuds is the integrated Hi-Fi DAC chip, which is claimed to offer a dynamic range of 113dB for improved and enhanced audio performance. Gamers also get a low-latency mode that reduces delay to as little as 42ms.
The earbuds can stay connected to as many as three devices simultaneously, making it easier to switch between a phone, tablet or laptop.
