IP ratings refer to the level of protection offered by an enclosure, against solids and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to 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 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, Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
JBL Endurance Peak 2 has a higher liquid rating than Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a weight of 26g . We take in account a lower weight best because lighter devices are easier to carry.
For a device to be true wireless it should have no wires linking any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 2 are true wireless for this case since they have no wires. This is a major difference since wireless earbuds have wires linking the two earbuds .
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro also is true wireless since it doesn't have cables linking the two earbuds together.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have wingtips, these are commonly used for workout earbuds and are usually an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a better fit.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have sweat resistance
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
The earbud foam is designed to be ultracompact and lightweight, with almost no interference with earrings, spectacles, hats, or hairstyles. The Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro have an earbud foam to some it is more comfortable than the in-ear foam.
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 Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro also have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 which results in a reduced level of noise.
The Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 stay tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces background noise well as preventing the device sound from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which implies that both limit ambient noise without using ANC to cancel it out.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 driver unit is 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 determines the loudness of the earbuds.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro driver unit is 13mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 3mm
, 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 it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio device produces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro'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 produces high audible frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
both devices can generate equal treble
SPL, 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, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro's battery life is
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 3 hours
. Each 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 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 full charge of 24 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before having to recharge the case itself.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro's charging case has a battery life of 25 hours,
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 1 hours
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 long periods.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro takes 2 hours to fully charge the battery,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery power is 60mAh, battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro's battery power is 60mAh.
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 2
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the earbuds has a low battery. Its lights display the charging state of your earbuds and case.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro too have a battery level indicator, these enable you tell the charging state of your earbuds, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro too support USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current electronics.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have Bluetooth version of 5, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in range, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro 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 to connect via Bluetooth.
Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro 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. Because 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 well with your MacBook. If you are planning on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have 2 microphones.
The Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2 Pro have a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are intended to reduce background sounds from the desired sound.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa. The size 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 voice that the earbud microphone can recognize.
