Ingress protection ratings refer to the rank of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating refers to protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IP54, the Jabra Evolve2 Buds'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 can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. In comparison to the Jabra Evolve2 Buds, JBL Live Pro 2 have a rating of IPX5 meaning that
no data available to specify a protection rating
and that of liquids is that,

Active noise cancellation uses advanced technology to actively counter noise. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it.
In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.

making them have a larger driver unit than that of Jabra Evolve2 Buds by 5mm
, as many tend to believe 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound. The Jabra Evolve2 Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through. JBL Live Pro 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well a particular audio device makes high human frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
JBL Live Pro 2's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices can generate equal treble
