IP ratings is the rank of protection given by a casing, against solids and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value means 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 is read as, the first value 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.
Compared to the JBL Endurance Peak 2, JLab Go Air have a rating of IP44 meaning that
they are protected against objects greater than 1.0mm such as wire
and that of liquids is that,
JBL Endurance Peak 2 has a higher liquid rating than JLab Go Air
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a weight of 26g . We prefer a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to move with.
The JLab Go Air, at 10g
weigh less than the JBL Endurance Peak 2 by -16g
For a device to be true wireless it should have no cables connecting any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 2 are true wireless for this matter since they have no wires. This is an important distinction since wireless earbuds have cables linking the pair of earbuds .
JLab Go Air also is true wireless since it doesn't have cables connecting the pair of earbuds .
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 come with wingtips, these are reserved for workout earbuds and are usually an optional add-on to the separate silicone ear tip for a more secure fit.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have sweat resistance
JLab Go Air'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, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The JLab Go Air also have stereo speakers
JBL Endurance Peak 2 sit tightly in place, this creates an acoustic seal that tones down background noise while preventing the earbuds music from leaking out .
Both JLab Go Air, and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have passive noise reduction which implies that they tone down ambient noise without using technology to cancel it out.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 driver unit is 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the device.
JLab Go Air driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 2mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
JLab Go Air's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal bass
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
JLab Go Air's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate 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.
JLab Go Air's sound pressure level measurement is 103dB/mW. The sound pressure level, a device is can be considered differently by different people, so we need to have the means to get a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
JLab Go Air have neodymium magnets, when used in audio devices produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output while using less power. They can help generate music at quite a high SPL, using high magnetic flux.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery life is 6 hours, a device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chanrgings.
JLab Go Air's battery life is
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 1 hours
. Every time you recharge your device, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
This is given by the manufacturer, and JBL Endurance Peak 2's case is said to have a charge of 24 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.
JLab Go Air's charging case has a battery life of 15 hours,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 9 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 when they have been unused for long periods.
JLab Go Air takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the battery,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 0.5 hours
JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery power is 60mAh, battery capacity, shows the amount of electrical energy that a battery can keep.
JLab Go Air's battery power is 43mAh.
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 17mAh
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the device has a low battery. Its lights display the charging status of your device and charging case.
JLab Go Air too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators enable you to tell the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or having a low battery.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
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.
JLab Go Air 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.
JLab Go Air have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
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 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 MacBook. 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.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have 2 microphones.
JLab Go Air microphones are 2,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
. More microphones record better sound quality and enable the earbuds to filter out background sounds.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa. The magnitude 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 sound that the microphone can recognize.
The JLab Go Air microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa. Microphone sensitivity is a measurement of a microphone's efficiency as a transducer.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 support fast charging. Most often, technologies like MediaTek’s Pump Express, are used to lower the amount of time it takes to fully charge a device.
With the JBL Endurance Peak 2, so you can access the volume control, pause, play, mute, etc whichever functions are supported on the earbuds.
JLab Go Air too have a control panel on them.
