Not the same as no ANC
A pair can offer both ANC and transparency mode as switchable settings rather than one or the other.
Where it helps most
Walking near traffic, ordering at a counter or having a quick conversation are common uses for transparency mode.
Check the switching experience
How easily you can toggle between ANC and transparency varies by app and by physical controls on the earbuds.
