Ingress protection ratings is the rating of protection offered by an enclosure, against solids and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value represents protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX5, the 1More Aero's rating is read as, the first number of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand medium pressure jet that's 6.3mm diameter, similar to garden hose from any angle for 3 minutes at a distance of 2.5 to 3 metres.
In comparison to the 1More Aero, JLab Go Air have a rating of IP44 meaning that
they are protected against objects greater than 1.0mm such as wire
and that of liquids is that,
1More Aero has a higher liquid rating than JLab Go Air
JLab Go Air have a weight of 10g . We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry.
For a device to be true wireless it should have no wires connecting any part of the device together, 1More Aero are true wireless for this case since they have no wires. This is a major distinction as some wireless earbuds have cables connecting the 2 earbuds .
JLab Go Air also is true wireless since it has no wires connecting the two earbuds together.
1More Aero have sweat resistance
JLab Go Air's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
1More Aero have stereo speakers, what this means is that 1More Aero's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both JLab Go Air and 1More Aero have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation uses advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then adding -1 (inverted noise) giving zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
The 1More Aero have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise.
1More Aero stay well in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces your environment noise while preventing the device sound from leaking out at the same.
Both JLab Go Air, and 1More Aero have passive noise reduction which implies that both limit ambient noise instead of actively using ANC to cancel it out.
1More Aero 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 produces sound in the device, its size determines the loudness of the device.
JLab Go Air driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of 1More Aero by 2mm
, as many tend to believe 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
The 1More Aero's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio device produces low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
JLab Go Air's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal bass
The 1More Aero's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well an audio device makes high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
JLab Go Air's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, JLab Go Air's measurement is 103dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
The JLab Go Air have neodymium magnets, when used in earbuds produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output using less power to do so. They can help generate music at quite a high SPL, using high magnetic flux.
The 1More Aero's battery life is 7 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
JLab Go Air's battery life is
less than that of 1More Aero by 2 hours
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less playing time. The effect is not noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the manufacturer, and the 1More Aero's case is said to have a full charge of 21 hours. A charging case with more battery hours allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go many times before recharging the case itself.
JLab Go Air's charging case has a battery life of 15 hours,
less than that of 1More Aero by 6 hours
It requires 1.5 hours to fully charge the JLab Go Air's battery. It is highly adivsable to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds when they have been in storage for extended periods.
JLab Go Air's battery power is 43mAh, battery capacity, shows the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store.
1More Aero have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the device has a low battery. Its lights indicate the charging state of your earbuds and case.
JLab Go Air too have a battery level indicator, these allow you determine the charging state of your earbuds, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
1More Aero support USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
1More Aero have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
JLab Go Air has a Bluetooth version of 5,
older than that of 1More Aero
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
1More Aero have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
JLab Go Air have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the 1More Aero
1More Aero support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the 1More Aero will work well with your iPad. If you intend on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The 1More Aero have 6 microphones.
The JLab Go Air microphones are 2,
less than that of 1More Aero by 4
. More microphones record better sound quality and enable the earbuds to filter out background sounds.
The 1More Aero have a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are intended to reduce noise from the desired sound.
The JLab Go Air microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa. The vastness of the analog or digital output signal from the microphone with its input stimulus is a calculation of its sensitivity. It's the 'loudness' of the sound that the microphone can pick up.
1More Aero support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient noises to still be heard even while wearing them
When lost in a room, or can't be found in your bag, the 1More Aero support the find earbuds feature.
1More Aero support fast charging. Commonly, technologies like Qualcomm’s Quick Charge, are used to reduce the time it takes to charge a device.
The 1More Aero have a mute function, they have the option to mute/unmute a conversation directly from the earbuds.
The JLab Go Air, so you can access the volume control, pause, play, mute, etc whichever functions are supported on the device.
JLab Go Air have a warranty period of 2 Years, the period of time that warrant free repair and adjustment services in case of a malfunction occurring under normal use that has followed instruction manuals.
1More Aero have voice prompts. Automatically receive information through audio messages, like if there is an issue with the connection.
The JLab Go Air too have voice prompts .i.e the device will notify you when the battery is running low, and it's time to recharge them.
1More Aero come with their own special case. Carrying earbuds openly, or placing them inside your bag without a cover can easily damage them.
