IP ratings refer to the level of protection offered by an enclosure, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX7, the JBL Endurance Peak 2's rating is read as, the first number of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second value of 7 means that they are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a weight of 26g . We consider a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are easier to carry.
The JBL Tune 225TWS, at 9.8g
are lighter than the JBL Endurance Peak 2 by -16.2g
True wireless devices have no wires connecting any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 2 are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables. This is an important distinction as some wireless earbuds have wires connecting the 2 earbuds .
JBL Tune 225TWS also is true wireless since it has no wires linking the pair of earbuds .
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 come with wingtips, these are commonly used for workout earbuds and come as an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a more secure fit.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have sweat resistance
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have stereo speakers, what this means is that JBL Endurance Peak 2's speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The JBL Tune 225TWS also have stereo speakers
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 stay tightly in place, this creates an acoustic covering that reduces your environment noise well as preventing the device voice audio from leaking out at the same.
Both JBL Tune 225TWS, and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have passive noise reduction which implies that both reduce ambient noise without 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.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the earbuds, its size determines the sound made by the earbuds.
JBL Tune 225TWS driver unit is 12mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 2mm
, a common assumption 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 can generate 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 a particular audio device generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through.
JBL Tune 225TWS's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
JBL Tune 225TWS's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means 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.
JBL Tune 225TWS's sound pressure level measurement is 105dB/mW. How loud something is can be taken differently by different people, so we need to have a way of getting a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery life is 6 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. 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.
JBL Tune 225TWS's battery life is
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 1 hours
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less listening time. The effect is not noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the manufacturer, 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 many times before having to recharge the case itself.
JBL Tune 225TWS's charging case has a battery life of 20 hours,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 4 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 when they have been in storage for extended periods.
JBL Tune 225TWS 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, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a battery level indicator, an indicator alerts you when the earbuds has a low battery. The battery indicator lights show the charging status of your device and case.
JBL Tune 225TWS too have a battery level indicator, these allow you to tell the charging state of your device, if charged fully, or having a low battery.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 use USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
JBL Tune 225TWS too use 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.
JBL Tune 225TWS has a Bluetooth version of 5,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
JBL Tune 225TWS 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. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the JBL Endurance Peak 2 will work well with your iPhone. If you are planning 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 JBL Tune 225TWS 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.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have 2 microphones.
While the JBL Tune 225TWS microphones are 4,
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 2
. More microphones result in better sound quality and help the earbuds to filter out background sounds.
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 calculation of its sensitivity. It's the 'loudness' of the sound that the microphone can recognize.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 support fast charging. Commonly, technologies like MediaTek’s Pump Express, are used to lower the time it takes to fully charge a device.
Also the JBL Tune 225TWS too support fast charging. It's very similar to regular charging, only that the battery fills up much faster. Say, with Quick Charge 3.0, the battery can be charged to 50% in 30 minutes.
