Jabra Elite 5 ✓
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and then generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
The Jabra Elite 5 have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 too have ANC which makes either of the earbuds ideal for plane rides and morning commutes. The Jabra Elite 5 and Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the mode that suits your travel or that suites your relaxation time.
