Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection given by a casing, against solids and liquids. 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 resistance against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IPX4, the Beats Studio Buds's rating is read as, the first value of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second number of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes.
Compared to the Beats Studio Buds, Jabra Evolve2 Buds have a rating of IP54 meaning 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 that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids

Both Jabra Evolve2 Buds and Beats Studio Buds have stereo speakers
ANC uses advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 hence "diluting" the noise.
Beats Studio Buds have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.

which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Beats Studio Buds by 2.2mm
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
Beats Studio Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component produces low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
The Beats Studio Buds's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device produces high human frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
both devices can generate equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, Beats Studio Buds's measurement is 100.5dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
