Even Mesh Wifi with fast roaming will have delay, just very low delay (below 1 second), short enough not to disconnect video calls / streaming.
Ubiquiti Unifi APs also support fast roaming.
For my home, I mix & match different models with same SSID. There's a 5-10 seconds delay, but since I take 10-20 seconds to walk up the stairs, by the time I'm at first floor, my phone is already connected to first floor AP. Works well most of the time.
In many cases, I believe having 1 AP for each floor is almost necessary, especially on 5 GHz radio and concrete ceilings.
Well not quite true for ubiquiti unifi gear... Ubiquiti Unifi APs also support fast roaming.

I installed a 3APs network in a church and I tried doing wifi calling, WhatsApp call and FaceTime audio call, all are able to be handled well to handover from one AP to another AP without much noticeable delay.
I would say the enterprise network devices are built differently.
