IP ratings is the level of protection offered by an enclosure, against dust and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value represents protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Scoring 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 value 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, Xiaomi FlipBuds 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 Xiaomi FlipBuds Pro

Both Xiaomi FlipBuds Pro and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have stereo speakers
ANC utilises advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it studies 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 adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero thus "diluting" the noise.
The Xiaomi FlipBuds Pro have ANC allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.
JBL Endurance Peak 2 sit tightly in place, this creates a sound seal that tones down your environment noise and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out .

Xiaomi FlipBuds Pro driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 1mm
, a common assumption 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 are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component produces low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component generates high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level 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.
