Ingress protection ratings is the rating of protection offered by an enclosure, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (sweat).

For a device to be true wireless it must have no wires connecting any part of the device together, JBL Tune Flex are true wireless for this matter since they have no wires. This is a major difference since wireless earbuds have wires linking the 2 earbuds . JBL Tune Flex have sweat resistance JBL Tune Flex have stereo speakers, what this means is that JBL Tune Flex's speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience. Active noise cancellation makes use of advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds.

ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 thus "diluting" the noise.

Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.

The JBL Tune Flex's battery life is 8 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
