IP ratings refer to the level of protection given by a casing, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating represents protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IPX7, the JBL Endurance Peak's rating for solids indicates 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, JBL Live Pro 2 have a rating of IPX5 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
JBL Endurance Peak has a higher liquid rating than JBL Live Pro 2
JBL Endurance Peak have a weight of 30g . We take in account a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to move with.
The JBL Live Pro 2, at 9.6g
are lighter than the JBL Endurance Peak by -20.4g
For a device to be true wireless it must have no cables linking any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak are true wireless for this case since they have no cables. This is an important difference as some wireless earbuds have cables connecting the pair of earbuds together.
JBL Live Pro 2 also is true wireless because it has no wires linking the 2 earbuds together.
JBL Endurance Peak have wingtips, these are commonly used for workout earbuds and come as an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a better fit.
JBL Endurance Peak are resistant to sweat
JBL Live Pro 2's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use during long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
The JBL Endurance Peak are both dustproof and water-resistant.
An earbud foam is made to be ultracompact and lightweight, with little interference with earrings, spectacles, hats, or hairstyles. The JBL Endurance Peak have an earbud foam to some it is more comfortable than the in-ear foam.
JBL Endurance Peak have stereo speakers, what this means is that JBL Endurance Peak's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both JBL Live Pro 2 and JBL Endurance Peak have stereo speakers
ANC uses advanced technology to actively cancel noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The JBL Endurance Peak have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise.
The JBL Live Pro 2 too have ANC which makes either of the devices ideal for plane rides and rush hour travels. Each operate with different noise cancellation types, pick the mode that suits your commute or that enhances your chill time.

A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, its size corellates with the loudness of the earbuds.
JBL Live Pro 2 driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 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 it's true that, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
The JBL Endurance Peak's lowest frequency is at 16Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
JBL Live Pro 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
JBL Endurance Peak make sound with a juicier bass than the JBL Live Pro 2
JBL Endurance Peak's highest frequency is at 22000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio component generates high human frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it.
JBL Live Pro 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
JBL Endurance Peak can generate a clearer and crispier treble than the JBL Live Pro 2
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Live Pro 2's measurement is 93dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
The JBL Endurance Peak's battery life is 4 hours, 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.
