ANC uses more advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (inverted noise) giving 0 which results in a reduced level of noise.
The Huawei FreeBuds 5 have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro too have ANC which makes either of the earbuds ideal for flights and rush hour travels. Each work with different noise cancellation settings, pick the mode that suits your commute or that enhances your chill time.
