IP ratings is the rating of protection offered by an enclosure, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value represents protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).
Having a value of IP57, the Jabra Elite 7 Pro's rating for solids indicates 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,
Nothing Ear 1 has a lower liquid rating than Jabra Elite 7 Pro
Jabra Elite 7 Pro have a weight of 10.8g . We consider a lower weight best because lighter devices are more comfortable to transport.
The Nothing Ear 1, at 9.4g
weigh less than the Jabra Elite 7 Pro with a difference -1.4g

Active noise cancellation utilises more advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise.
How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro have ANC 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 outcompete background noise.

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. Jabra Elite 7 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, 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
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component produces 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 means that
both devices produce equal treble

less than that of Jabra Elite 7 Pro by 2
. More microphones record better sound quality and enable the earbuds to filter out background sounds. The Jabra Elite 7 Pro use a noise-canceling microphone, these microphones are designed to reduce background sounds from the desired sound.
The Nothing Ear 1 too use a noise-canceling type of microphone. This is useful in noisy environments. Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest mic frequency is 8,000Hz, high frequencies are best for picking up treble.
The highest mic frequency of a microphone is known as its upper limiting frequency. Jabra Elite 7 Pro support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient sound to still be heard even while wearing the earbuds
