Audio Technica ATH TWX9 ✓
Active noise cancellation utilises advanced technology to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (noise) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 too have ANC which makes both earbuds ideal for flights and morning travels. Each operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the setting that you prefer for travel or that enhances your chill time.

Driver Unit Size
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
10mm
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 5.8mm
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro driver unit is 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, the unit size dictates the loudness of the earbuds.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 driver unit is 5.8mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro by 4.2mm
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not indicate that they deliver better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
20Hz
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 20Hz
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal while at it.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can produce equal bass
Highest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
20000Hz
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 40000Hz
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio device generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, this means that
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
Sound Pressure Level
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
25dB/mW
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 102dB/mW
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's measurement is 25dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's sound pressure level measurement is 102dB/mW. How loud something is can be considered differently by different persons, so we need to have a way of getting a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
