Making ambient sounds easier to hear
When you enable the AMBIENT SOUND feature, the sounds around you will be mixed together with the
playback sound. This feature is useful when you want to listen to music while being careful of your
surroundings, such as when you are out walking, when you want to briefly talk with someone and so on.
