Ingress protection ratings refer to the rank of protection offered by a casing, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Having a value of 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 number 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, Nothing Ear 1 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 Nothing Ear 1
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a weight of 26g . We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to transport.
Nothing Ear 1, at 9.4g
weigh less than the JBL Endurance Peak 2 with a difference -16.6g
True wireless devices have no wires linking any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 2 are true wireless for this case since they have no cables. This is a key distinction since wireless earbuds have cables connecting the 2 earbuds .
Nothing Ear 1 also is true wireless since it has no wires linking the 2 earbuds together.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have wingtips, these are commonly used for earbuds for workouts and are usually an optional add-on to the separate silicone ear tip for a better fit.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 are resistant to sweat
Nothing Ear 1's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use during long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
JBL Endurance Peak 2 have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Nothing Ear 1 and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have stereo speakers
ANC uses more advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero thus "diluting" the noise.
Nothing Ear 1 have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background noise.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 sit tightly in place, creating an acoustic covering that tones down background sounds while preventing the earbuds sound from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which implies that both 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, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, its size determines the sound produced by the device.
Nothing Ear 1 driver unit is 11.6mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 1.6mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component produces low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Nothing Ear 1'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 tells how well an audio component generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
Nothing Ear 1's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
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, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
Nothing Ear 1's battery life is
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 1 hours
. Each time you recharge your device, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the vendor, and JBL Endurance Peak 2's case is said to have a full charge of 24 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before recharging the case itself.
Nothing Ear 1's charging case has a battery life of 29 hours,
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 5 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.
Nothing Ear 1 takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the battery,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 0.5 hours

Nothing Ear 1, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the device, you just put down on a supported charging pad.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a battery level indicator, an indicator alerts you when the earbuds has a low battery. Its lights show the charging state of your device and charging case.
Nothing Ear 1 too have a battery level indicator, these allow you tell the charging state of your earbuds, whether fully charged, or having a low battery.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
Nothing Ear 1 too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug is part and parcel of most current laptops, phones, and tablets.
The 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.
Nothing Ear 1 has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
newer than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
Nothing Ear 1 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 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 iPad. 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.
