IP ratings refer to the level of protection given by an enclosure, against solids and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value represents protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IPX4, the Devialet Gemini's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes.
Compared to the Devialet Gemini, Jabra Elite 7 Pro have a rating of IP57 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

The Jabra Elite 7 Pro also have stereo speakers
Jabra Elite 7 Pro are rated 1meters any depth more than that you are likely to lose the functionality of your device. Devices that can withstand more water pressure are better for swimming.
Active noise cancellation utilises advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) and producing -1 (inverted noise) giving 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The Devialet Gemini have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background sounds.
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro too have Active Noise Cancellation which makes either of the devices ideal for flights and morning travels. Each operate with different noise cancellation settings, pick the mode that you prefer for commute or that enhances your relaxation time.
The Devialet Gemini stay tightly in place, this creates a sound seal that tones down background noise and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out .

Devialet Gemini have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, its size corellates with the sound produced by the device.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Devialet Gemini by 4mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yes, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not indicate that they deliver better quality sound.
Devialet Gemini's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio device produces low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
Devialet Gemini make sound with a juicier bass than the Jabra Elite 7 Pro
Devialet Gemini's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Devialet Gemini's measurement is 94dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Devialet Gemini's battery life is 6 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 longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's battery life is
more than that of Devialet Gemini by 3 hours
. Every time you recharge your device, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
This is given by the vendor, and the Devialet Gemini's case is said to have a charge of 18 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before having to recharge the case itself.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's charging case has a battery life of 24 hours,
more than that of Devialet Gemini by 6 hours
