Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
Sony WF 1000XM4
✓
Jabra Elite 7 Pro ✓
ANC utilises more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (inverted noise) giving zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background noise.
Sony WF 1000XM4 too have ANC making either of the devices ideal for flights and rush hour travels. Each operate with different noise cancellation settings, pick the mode that suits your travel or that enhances your chill time.

105dB/mW
Jabra Elite 7 Pro ✗
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, Sony WF 1000XM4's measurement is 105dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Has A Neodymium Magnet
Sony WF 1000XM4
✓
Jabra Elite 7 Pro ✗
The Sony WF 1000XM4 have neodymium magnets, when used in audio devices produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output while using less power. They can help produce music at quite a high SPL, using high magnetic flux.
