The limitation on active noise reduction is mostly latency, and hardware constraints when using adaptive filtering in a small package without a large battery.
Whatever "Adaptive EQ" means it may or may not be particularly novel. I've seen worked on things similar for years - changing filter parameters in response to microphone input isn't always easy but it's not untrod ground.
Going to have to listen to it to be the judge of anything, like all audio products.
Adaptive EQ is a well established piece of jargon in telecommunications. I’m not sure if that’s actually what they’re doing here, but it would be interesting if they are. The ear canal makes a resonant cavity and they could notch out annoying peaks in the mid-highs that vary from each seating of the buds. This could also be used to level out the magnitude response if they hadn’t made it an open cavity.
