ANC makes use of more advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 thus "diluting" the noise.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro have Active Noise Cancellation enabling 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.
Nothing Ear 1 too have Active Noise Cancellation making both devices ideal for flights and rush hour commutes. The Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro and Nothing Ear 1 work with different noise cancellation settings, pick the noise cancellation type that suits your travel or that suites your chill time.
