Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)

Active noise cancellation utilises advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and then generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
The Huawei FreeBuds 5i have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise.
The JBL Tour Pro 2 too have ANC making both earbuds ideal for plane rides and rush hour travels. Each operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the mode that suits your travel or that suites your chill time.

Driver Unit Size
Huawei FreeBuds 5i
10mm
JBL Tour Pro 2 10mm

JBL Tour Pro 2 driver unit is 10mm in diameter,
making both JBL Tour Pro 2, and Huawei FreeBuds 5i similar in how loud their sound gets
, 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Huawei FreeBuds 5i
20Hz
JBL Tour Pro 2 20Hz
The Huawei FreeBuds 5i's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
JBL Tour Pro 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
Highest Frequency
Huawei FreeBuds 5i
40000Hz
JBL Tour Pro 2 20000Hz
The Huawei FreeBuds 5i's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio component generates high human frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
JBL Tour Pro 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
Huawei FreeBuds 5i can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the JBL Tour Pro 2
