Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to actively cancel noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and after inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out.
In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.

making them have a larger driver unit than that of Jabra Evolve2 Buds by 3.5mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound.
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal while at it. Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component makes high recognizable frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it. Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
