Active noise cancellation uses more advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (noise) then adding -1 (inverted noise) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The Beats Studio Buds Plus have ANC allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.
The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX too have ANC making both devices ideal for plane rides and morning travels. Each operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the mode that you prefer for travel or that enhances your chill time.
