Ingress protection ratings is the rating of protection given by a casing, against solids and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value represents protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to resistance 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, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 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 Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3

Both Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 and Jabra Elite 7 Pro have stereo speakers
ANC uses more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (noise) and producing -1 (inverted noise) giving zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 produce a juicier bass than the Jabra Elite 7 Pro
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component generates high human frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's highest frequency is at 21,000Hz, this implies that
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Jabra Elite 7 Pro
