Active Noise Cancellation isn't working on my AirPods Pro

Hello, I'm using AirPods Pro (2nd generation) and I've noticed that the Active Noise Cancellation does not reduce certain types of noise, such as strong air blowing or metallic impacts from machinery. Is this a known limitation of the product or could there be a firmware improvement in the future? I'd like to provide this as product feedback.

Sorry, but Apple can not be reached by posting in these user to user discussions.

You will have to use the Feedback link to tell Apple directly about your wishes for future AirPods firmware updates:

I found, that the Noice Cancellation feature on the AirPods Pro needs a kind of steady noise that can be counterbalanced, to work as expected.
