IP ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by a casing, against solids and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating represents protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX7, the JBL Endurance Peak 2's rating is read as, the first value of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second number of 7 means that they are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes.
Compared to the JBL Endurance Peak 2, Jabra Evolve2 Buds have a rating of IP54 meaning 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 that of liquids is that,
JBL Endurance Peak 2 has a higher liquid rating than Jabra Evolve2 Buds
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a weight of 26g . We take in account a lower weight better because lighter devices are easier to transport.
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds, at 10.8g
are lighter than the JBL Endurance Peak 2 with a difference -15.2g
For a device to be true wireless it should have no wires connecting any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 2 are true wireless for this case since they don't have wires. This is an important difference as some wireless earbuds have cables linking the 2 earbuds .
Jabra Evolve2 Buds also is true wireless since it has no cables linking the pair of earbuds together.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 come with wingtips, these are commonly used for earbuds for workouts and come as an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a better fit.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have sweat resistance
Jabra Evolve2 Buds's resistance to sweat makes both devices ideal for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have stereo speakers, what this means is that JBL Endurance Peak 2's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds also have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and after inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background sounds.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 stay tightly in place, this creates a sound seal that reduces background noise well as preventing the device sound from leaking out at the same.
Both Jabra Evolve2 Buds, and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have passive noise reduction which means that both limit ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass.
The driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size corellates with the sound produced by the device.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 4mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, measured 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.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds's battery life is
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 4 hours
. Every time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, 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 has a charge of 24 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before having to recharge the case itself.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds's charging case has a battery life of 21 hours,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 3 hours
It takes 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery. It is recommended to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds 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 capacity, shows the amount of electrical energy that a battery can keep.
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the earbuds, you just place down on a supported charging pad.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the earbuds has a low battery. Its lights indicate the charging status of your earbuds and charging case.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you to determine the charging state of your earbuds, if charged fully, or the battery is running low.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 support USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current laptops, phones, and tablets.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have Bluetooth version of 5, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
newer than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
Jabra Evolve2 Buds have a maximum range of 20meters,
longer than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 10meters
JBL Endurance Peak 2 support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the JBL Endurance Peak 2 will work well with your MacBook. If you intend on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
