Jabra Evolve2 Buds IP54

JBL Tour Pro 2 ✗

IP ratings is the level of protection given by an enclosure, against solids and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value represents protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that 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 the second number of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes.

Jabra Evolve2 Buds ✓

JBL Tour Pro 2 ✓

Active noise cancellation makes use of advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (inverted noise) giving 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.

Jabra Evolve2 Buds have ANC allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.
