Thermal management systems for electronic devices and related methods

At least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to at least:

• detect ambient noise;
• identify a sound of interest value associated with the ambient noise and a background noise value associated with the ambient noise;
• determine a signal-to-noise ratio based on the sound of interest value and the background noise value;
• compare the signal-to-noise ratio to a sensitivity threshold;
• and
• in response to determining that the signal-to-noise ratio exceeds the sensitivity threshold, operate a thermal management system of an electronic device with one or more restrictions.
