ANC utilises more advanced technology to actively cancel noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (inverted noise) to make zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro too have ANC making either of the devices ideal for plane rides and morning commutes. The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 and Jabra Elite 7 Pro work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the setting that suits your travel or that enhances your chill time.
