✓
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 ✓
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (inverted noise) giving zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 too have Active Noise Cancellation making either of the devices ideal for plane rides and rush hour commutes. Each work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the setting that suits your commute or that suites your relaxation time.
