Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection given by a casing, against solids and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value means protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IP68, the JBL Endurance Peak 3's rating for solids indicates 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..
In comparison to the JBL Endurance Peak 3, JLab Go Air Pop have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
no data available to specify a protection rating
and that of liquids is that,
JLab Go Air Pop has a lower liquid rating than JBL Endurance Peak 3
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have a weight of 25g . We consider a lower weight best because lighter devices are more comfortable to move with.
The JLab Go Air Pop, at 7.4g
weigh less than the JBL Endurance Peak 3 with a difference -17.6g
True wireless devices have no cables connecting any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak 3 are true wireless for this matter since they have no wires. This is a major distinction since wireless earbuds have cables linking the pair of earbuds together.
JLab Go Air Pop also is true wireless since it doesn't have wires connecting the two earbuds together.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have wingtips, these are commonly used for workout earbuds and are usually an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a more secure fit.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have sweat resistance
JLab Go Air Pop's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use during long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
JBL Endurance Peak 3 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.
The JLab Go Air Pop also have stereo speakers
The JBL Endurance Peak 3 sit tightly in place, creating a sound seal that reduces background sounds well as preventing the device 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 ANC to cancel it out.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the earbuds, its size corellates with the sound made by the earbuds.
JLab Go Air Pop driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 4mm
, many people have a misconception 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 are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they deliver better quality sound.
JBL Endurance Peak 3'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 while at it.
JLab Go Air Pop's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
JBL Endurance Peak 3's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well an audio component produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
JLab Go Air Pop's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
The sound pressure level, 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 Pop's sound pressure level measurement is 103dB/mW. How loud something is can be considered differently by separate persons, so we need to have a way of getting an objective 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 before recharge. A device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
JLab Go Air Pop's battery life is
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 2 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.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the vendor, and the JBL Endurance Peak 3's case is said to have a charge of 40 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.
JLab Go Air Pop's charging case has a battery life of 24 hours,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 16 hours
It takes 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Endurance Peak 3's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds when they have been in storage for long periods.

The JBL Endurance Peak 3 use USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
JLab Go Air Pop too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug is part and parcel of most current electronics.
The JBL Endurance Peak 3 have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
JLab Go Air Pop has a Bluetooth version of 5.1,
older than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
The JBL Endurance Peak 3 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
JLab Go Air Pop 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 fine with your iPhone. If you intend on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The JLab Go Air Pop support AAC as well. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate.
JBL Endurance Peak 3 have 4 microphones.
The JLab Go Air Pop microphones are 2,
less than that of JBL Endurance Peak 3 by 2
. More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background sounds.
JLab Go Air Pop microphone sensitivity is measured at -42dBV/Pa. The vastness 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 sound that the earbud microphone can recognize.
