IP ratings is the rank of protection given by an enclosure, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value represents protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX7, the JBL Endurance Peak 2's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes.
In comparison to the JBL Endurance Peak 2, Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
JBL Endurance Peak 2 has a higher liquid rating than Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a weight of 26g . We prefer a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are easier to carry.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II, at 12.5g
weigh less than the JBL Endurance Peak 2 with a difference -13.5g
True wireless devices have no wires linking any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 2 are true wireless for this matter since they have no wires. This is a major difference since wireless earbuds have wires connecting the two earbuds together.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II also is true wireless because it has no cables connecting the 2 earbuds .
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 come with wingtips, these are commonly used for earbuds for workouts and are usually an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a better fit.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II too have wingtips, these rest against the triangular fossa and form a secure fit to combat vigorous movement, they are best suited for sports and other physical activities. When applied as directed, they secure the earbuds from falling off.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have sweat resistance
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use during long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II also have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) and producing -1 (inverted noise) to make zero thus "diluting" the noise.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 sit tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces background noise while preventing the device sound from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which implies that they reduce ambient noise without using ANC to cancel it out.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass. The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the device.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device produces high audible frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Endurance Peak 2's measurement is 93dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery life is 6 hours, a device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II's battery life is
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
This is given by the vendor, and JBL Endurance Peak 2's case is said to have a charge of 24 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II's charging case has a battery life of 18 hours,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 6 hours
It requires 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II takes 2 hours to fully charge the battery,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery capacity is 60mAh, battery power, shows the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the earbuds has a low battery. Its lights show the charging status of your device and case.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators enable you tell the charging state of your earbuds, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II too have USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current laptops, phones, and tablets.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have Bluetooth version of 5, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II has a Bluetooth version of 5.3,
newer than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
JBL Endurance Peak 2 support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the JBL Endurance Peak 2 will work fine with your iPad. If you intend on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II support AAC as well. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have 2 microphones.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II microphones are 8,
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 6
. More microphones record better sound quality and help the earbuds to filter out background sounds.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II have a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are intended to reduce background sounds from the earbuds' sound.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa. The extent of the analog or digital output signal from the microphone with its input stimulus is a measure of its sensitivity. It's the 'loudness' of the voice that the earbud microphone can recognize.
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient sound so that they can still be heard even while wearing them
