Ingress protection ratings is the rating of protection given by a casing, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Having a value of IP57, the Jabra Elite 7 Pro's rating is read as, the first value of 5 denotes 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 of liquids that they are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes. Compared to the Jabra Elite 7 Pro, Nothing Ear 1 have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
no data available to specify a protection rating
and that of liquids is that,
Jabra Elite 7 Pro has a higher liquid rating than Nothing Ear 1
Jabra Elite 7 Pro have a weight of 10.8g . We prefer a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are easier to transport.
The Nothing Ear 1, at 9.4g weigh less than the Jabra Elite 7 Pro by -1.4g For a device to be true wireless it should have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Jabra Elite 7 Pro are true wireless for this matter since they have no wires. This is a key difference as some wireless earbuds have wires linking the 2 earbuds together. Nothing Ear 1 also is true wireless because it has no cables connecting the pair of earbuds . Jabra Elite 7 Pro have sweat resistance Nothing Ear 1's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc Jabra Elite 7 Pro have stereo speakers, what this means is that Jabra Elite 7 Pro's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Nothing Ear 1 and Jabra Elite 7 Pro have stereo speakers Active noise cancellation utilises advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and then generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 which results in a reduced level of noise.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro driver unit is 6mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the earbuds, the unit size corellates with the sound produced by the earbuds. Nothing Ear 1 driver unit is 11.6mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Jabra Elite 7 Pro by 5.6mm
, 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 yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. Nothing Ear 1's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that both devices can make sound with equal bass Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio component makes high human frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through. Nothing Ear 1's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that both devices can produce equal treble Jabra Elite 7 Pro's battery life is 9 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge.
A device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
