Sony LinkBuds S ✓
Active noise cancellation makes use of advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The Sony LinkBuds S have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background sounds.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 too have ANC which makes either of the earbuds ideal for plane rides and morning travels. Each work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for travel or that enhances your relaxation time.

Driver Unit Size
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3
7mm
Sony LinkBuds S 5mm
The Sony LinkBuds S have a unit size of 5mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass.
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, the unit size corellates with the loudness of the device.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 driver unit is 7mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Sony LinkBuds S by 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 it's true that, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3
5hz
Sony LinkBuds S 20hz
Sony LinkBuds S's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio device generates low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, this means that
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 make sound with a juicier bass than the Sony LinkBuds S
Highest Frequency
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3
21,000hz
Sony LinkBuds S 40,000hz
Sony LinkBuds S's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio component makes high human frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's highest frequency is at 21,000Hz, this implies that
Sony LinkBuds S produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3
