Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)

JLab Go Air ✗
ANC uses advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The Huawei FreeBuds 5i have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.

Driver Unit Size
Huawei FreeBuds 5i
10mm
JLab Go Air 8mm
Huawei FreeBuds 5i have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size corellates with the loudness of the earbuds.
JLab Go Air driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Huawei FreeBuds 5i by 2mm
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Huawei FreeBuds 5i
20Hz
JLab Go Air 20Hz
The Huawei FreeBuds 5i's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal while at it.
JLab Go Air's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
Huawei FreeBuds 5i
40000Hz
JLab Go Air 20000Hz
The Huawei FreeBuds 5i's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio device generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
JLab Go Air's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
Huawei FreeBuds 5i produce a clearer and crispier treble than the JLab Go Air
Sound Pressure Level
Huawei FreeBuds 5i
✗
JLab Go Air 103dB/mW
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JLab Go Air's measurement is 103dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Has A Neodymium Magnet
Huawei FreeBuds 5i
✗
JLab Go Air ✓
The JLab Go Air have neodymium magnets, if used in earbuds produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output using less power to do so. They can help generate music at quite a high SPL, with the use of high magnetic flux.
