ANC utilises advanced technology to actively counter noise.
How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and then inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
Audio Technica ATH CKS30TW Plus have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background noise.
Audio Technica ATH CKS30TW Plus stay tightly in place, this creates a sound seal that reduces background noise while preventing the device sound from leaking out at the same.

A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size determines the sound made by the earbuds. The Audio Technica ATH CKS30TW Plus's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio device generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through. Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
Audio Technica ATH CKS30TW Plus produce a juicier bass than the Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus
The Audio Technica ATH CKS30TW Plus's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio component makes high human frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal treble
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Audio Technica ATH CKS30TW Plus's measurement is 110dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source. Audio Technica ATH CKS30TW Plus's battery life is 7.5 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge.
A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings. Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus's battery life is
more than that of Audio Technica ATH CKS30TW Plus by 3.5 hours
. Every time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
