Ingress protection ratings refer to the level of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IP68, the JBL Endurance Peak 3's rating is read as, the first number of 6 denotes that they are completely dust proof, and of liquids that they are protected against the effects of continuous immersion in water, ingress of water in quantities causing harmful effects shall not be possible. Conditions should be more severe than for numeral 7..
Compared to the JBL Endurance Peak 3, JLab Go Air have a rating of IP44 meaning that
JBL Endurance Peak 3 has a higher dust resistance than JLab Go Air
and that of liquids is that,
JLab Go Air has a lower liquid rating than JBL Endurance Peak 3
The JBL Endurance Peak 3 have a weight of 25g . We consider a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to transport.
JLab Go Air, at 10g
weigh less than the JBL Endurance Peak 3 with a difference -15g
True wireless devices have no wires linking any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 3 are true wireless for this case since they have no cables. This is a key difference as some wireless earbuds have wires linking the pair of earbuds together. JLab Go Air also is true wireless since it doesn't have wires linking the 2 earbuds .
The JBL Endurance Peak 3 come with wingtips, these are commonly used for earbuds for workouts and are usually an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a better fit.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have sweat resistance
JLab Go Air's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use during long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience. Both JLab Go Air and JBL Endurance Peak 3 have stereo speakers
The JBL Endurance Peak 3 sit well in place, creating a sound seal that reduces background noise well as preventing the earbuds music from leaking out at the same. Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which implies that they reduce ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out.
The JBL Endurance Peak 3 driver unit is 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass. The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, the unit size determines the loudness of the earbuds. JLab Go Air driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 2mm
, 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 indicate that they deliver better quality sound. The JBL Endurance Peak 3's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through. JLab Go Air's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
The JBL Endurance Peak 3's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
JLab Go Air's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Endurance Peak 3's measurement is 102dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source. JLab Go Air's sound pressure level measurement is 103dB/mW.
How loud something is can be perceived differently by separate people, so we need to have a way of getting a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms. The JBL Endurance Peak 3's battery life is 10 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
JLab Go Air's battery life is
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 5 hours
. Every time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less listening time. The effect is not noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time. This is given by the manufacturer, and the JBL Endurance Peak 3's case has a full charge of 40 hours.
A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before recharging the case itself. JLab Go Air's charging case has a battery life of 15 hours,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 25 hours
It requires 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Endurance Peak 3's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
JLab Go Air takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the battery,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 0.5 hours
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the earbuds has a low battery. Its lights show the charging state of your device and charging case. JLab Go Air too have a battery level indicator, these enable you to determine the charging state of your earbuds, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 support USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable. The JBL Endurance Peak 3 have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. JLab Go Air has a Bluetooth version of 5,
older than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth. JLab Go Air have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak 3
JBL Endurance Peak 3 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 3 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 3 have 4 microphones. JLab Go Air microphones are 2,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 2
. More microphones record better sound quality and help the earbuds to filter out background sounds. JBL Endurance Peak 3 support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient sound so that they can still be heard even while wearing them
If lost in a room, or can't be found in your bag, JBL Endurance Peak 3 have a find earbuds feature.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have a mute function, they support the feature to mute/unmute a conversation directly from the earbuds. With the JBL Endurance Peak 3, so you can access the volume control, pause, play, mute, etc whichever features are supported on the device. The JLab Go Air also have a control panel on them.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have voice prompts. Automatically receive information through audio messages, say if there is an issue with the connection. JLab Go Air also have voice prompts .i.e the earbuds notifies you when the battery is running low, and you need to recharge them.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 come with their own special case. Carrying earbuds openly, or placing them inside your bag without a cover can easily damage them.
