IP ratings refer to the level of protection offered by a casing, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Scoring 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, LG Tone Free Fit TF8 have a rating of IP67 meaning that
they are completely dust proof
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a weight of 26g . We consider a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to transport.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8, at 5.7g
are lighter than the JBL Endurance Peak 2 by -20.3g
For a device to be true wireless it must have no cables connecting any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 2 are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables. This is a key distinction since wireless earbuds have cables connecting the pair of earbuds .
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 also is true wireless because it doesn't have cables connecting the 2 earbuds together.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have 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.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 too have wingtips, by resting against the triangular fossa and form a secure fit to match vigorous movement, wingtips are best suited for sports and other physical activities. If applied correctly, they prevent the earbuds from falling off.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 are resistant to sweat
LG Tone Free Fit TF8's resistance to sweat makes both devices ideal for use during long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
The LG Tone Free Fit TF8 are both dustproof and water-resistant.
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 LG Tone Free Fit TF8 also have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of more advanced technology to actively cancel noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) then producing -1 (inverted noise) giving zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 have Active Noise Cancellation enabling 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 sit well in place, this creates an acoustic covering that reduces your environment noise well as preventing the earbuds sound from leaking out at the same.
Both LG Tone Free Fit TF8, and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have passive noise reduction this means that they limit ambient noise instead of actively using ANC to cancel it out.
The 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.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 4mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yes, 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 a particular audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal while at it.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component makes high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means 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.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery life is 6 hours, a device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8'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 listening 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 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 allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before having to recharge the case itself.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8's charging case has a battery life of 20 hours,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 4 hours
It takes 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery. It is highly adivsable to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 takes 1 hours to fully charge the battery,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 1 hours
JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery capacity is 60mAh, battery capacity, shows the amount of electrical energy that a battery can keep.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8's battery power is 68mAh.
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 8mAh
The LG Tone Free Fit TF8, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the earbuds, you simply place down on a supported charging pad.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a battery level indicator, an indicator alerts you when the device has a low battery. Its lights show the charging state of your earbuds and charging case.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you tell the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or having a low battery.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 use USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 too support 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 movement between devices placed in range, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 has a Bluetooth version of 5.3,
newer than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
LG Tone Free Fit TF8 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 can provide 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 MacBook. 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 LG Tone Free Fit TF8 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.
