Nothing Ear 1 ✓

JBL Endurance Peak 2 ✗

ANC uses more advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero thus "diluting" the noise.
