IP ratings refer to the rating of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IP57, the Beoplay EX's rating for solids indicates that ingress of dust is not totally prevented but dust does not enter in harmful quantities to interfere with the correct operation or impair safety, and of liquids that they are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes. Compared to the Beoplay EX, Jabra Elite 7 Pro have a rating of IP57 meaning that
they both have the same rating against dust
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
Beoplay EX have a weight of 12g . We prefer a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are easier to move with.
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro, at 10.8g are lighter than the Beoplay EX by -1.2g True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, Beoplay EX are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables.

The Jabra Elite 7 Pro also have stereo speakers Active noise cancellation makes use of advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
Beoplay EX have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise.

Beoplay EX's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through. Jabra Elite 7 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that both devices produce equal bass The Beoplay EX's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio component produces high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that both devices generate equal treble The Beoplay EX's battery life is 8 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge.
