The OnePlus Buds Z2 also have stereo speakers
ANC uses advanced technology to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) then producing -1 (inverted noise) to make zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
OnePlus Buds Z2 have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 stay well in place, creating a sound covering that reduces your environment sounds and also prevents the device sound from leaking out .

OnePlus Buds Z2 driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 1mm
, 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 yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
OnePlus Buds Z2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can produce equal bass
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates high recognizable frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it.
OnePlus Buds Z2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
The sound pressure level, 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.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery life is 6 hours, a device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chanrgings.
OnePlus Buds Z2's battery life is
more 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 not noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
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 allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before recharging the case itself.
OnePlus Buds Z2's charging case has a battery life of 31 hours,
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 7 hours
It takes 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Endurance Peak 2's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
OnePlus Buds Z2 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 power, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can keep.
OnePlus Buds Z2's battery power is 40mAh.
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 20mAh
