Ingress protection ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by a casing, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value represents protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IP68, the JBL Endurance Peak 3's rating for solids indicates that they are completely dust proof, and the second number of 8 means 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..

no data available to specify a protection rating
and that of liquids is that,

Both Nothing Ear 1 and JBL Endurance Peak 3 have stereo speakers
ANC uses more advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (inverted noise) giving 0 therefore "diluting" the noise.
Nothing Ear 1 have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.

both devices can produce equal bass
The JBL Endurance Peak 3's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio component produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Nothing Ear 1's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured 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.
