IP ratings is the rank of protection offered by a casing, against dust and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating represents protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IPX4, the Google Pixel Buds Pro'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 low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. Compared to the Google Pixel Buds Pro, 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,

Active noise cancellation utilises more advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds.
ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 therefore "diluting" the noise.
Google Pixel Buds Pro 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 sounds.

Jabra Evolve2 Buds driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Google Pixel Buds Pro by 5mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound. Google Pixel Buds Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio component produces low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal bass
Google Pixel Buds Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio component produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Jabra Evolve2 Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, Google Pixel Buds Pro's measurement is 75dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
