right, i mean more that they talk about the custom chips and teraflops and all of that, so you'd think with that much hardware they could say "lossless audio". i'm guessing it's not lossless, but if the quality is high enough that's fine. is it even bluetooth?
When connected to Apple devices, the AirPods actually use a custom Bluetooth profile where they do narrowband SBC over Bluetooth LE for voice and AAC over Bluetooth.

They can do both at the same time too, so it doesn't have the annoying problem of music falling back to SBC as soon as an app tries to use a microphone, like on Android/everything else.
