IP ratings is the rating 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, followed by the one that refers to resistance 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.
Compared to the JBL Endurance Peak 2, Mpow Flame S have a rating of IPX7 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a weight of 26g . We consider a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are easier to transport.
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 matter since they have no cables. This is an important difference as some wireless earbuds have wires connecting the two earbuds together.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have wingtips, these are reserved for earbuds for workouts and are usually an optional add-on to the separate silicone ear tip for a better fit.
Mpow Flame S too have wingtips, these rest against the triangular fossa and form a secure fit to match vigorous movement, they are best suited for sports and other physical activities. If applied rightly, they prevent the earbuds from falling off.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have sweat resistance
Mpow Flame S'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.
Both Mpow Flame S and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero hence "diluting" the noise.
The Mpow Flame S have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 stay tightly in place, this creates an acoustic covering that tones down your environment noise and also prevents the device music from leaking out .
Both Mpow Flame S, and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have passive noise reduction this means that both limit ambient noise instead of actively using ANC to cancel it out.
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 the component that makes sound in the earbuds, its size corellates with the loudness of the earbuds.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio component produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
SPL, 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.
Mpow Flame S's battery life is
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 6 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 have shorter listening time.
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 several times before having to recharge the case itself.
It takes 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery. It is highly adivsable to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds when they have been unused for extended periods.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery power is 60mAh, battery power, 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 device has a low battery. Its lights display the charging state of your device and case.
Mpow Flame S too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators enable you to tell the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 use USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in 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 range, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Mpow Flame S has a Bluetooth version of 5,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
Mpow Flame S 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 the same bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the JBL Endurance Peak 2 will work fine with your iPhone. If you intend on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The Mpow Flame S 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 Mpow Flame S support LDAC, a codec developed by Sony which allows streaming high-resolution audio over Bluetooth connections at up to 990 kbps at 32 bit/96 kHz. It can reach a high bitrate of 990kbps, which provides high-resolution audio.
Mpow Flame S support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps).
Mpow Flame S support APTX Low Latency, a codec developed by Qualcomm. It uses Bluetooth 5.0 technology to provide low latency audio (around 40ms), which is useful when you want to avoid audio lag for example when playing games.
The Mpow Flame S support APTX HD, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It supports high-quality 24-bit audio (at a bit rate of 576kbps).
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have 2 microphones.
Mpow Flame S use a noise-canceling microphone, these microphones are made to reduce noise from the earbuds' sound.
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 calculation of its sensitivity. It's the 'loudness' of the sound that the earbud microphone can pick up.
Mpow Flame S support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to channel ambient sound so that they can still be heard even while wearing them
The Mpow Flame S support in/on-ear detection, the sensors in the earbuds can detect when they are removed from your ears so that the music is paused.
When misplaced in a room, or can't be found in your bag, Mpow Flame S support the find earbuds feature.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 support fast charging. Commonly, technologies like MediaTek’s Pump Express, are used to lower the amount of time it takes to fully charge the earbuds.
