Ingress protection ratings refer to the rank of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX7, the JBL Endurance Peak's rating is read as, the first value of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second number of 7 means that they are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes.
In comparison to the JBL Endurance Peak, Nuraphone NuraTrue 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 has a higher liquid rating than Nuraphone NuraTrue
The JBL Endurance Peak have a weight of 30g . We take in account a lower weight best because lighter devices are easier to transport.
Nuraphone NuraTrue, at 14.8g
are lighter than the JBL Endurance Peak with a difference -15.2g
True wireless devices have no wires connecting any part of the device together, JBL Endurance Peak are true wireless for this case since they don't have cables. This is a major distinction as some wireless earbuds have wires connecting the two earbuds .
Nuraphone NuraTrue also is true wireless since it doesn't have wires connecting the 2 earbuds .
JBL Endurance Peak have 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 are resistant to sweat
Nuraphone NuraTrue's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
The JBL Endurance Peak are both dustproof and water-resistant.
The 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 for some people it is more comfortable than the in-ear foam.
JBL Endurance Peak have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Nuraphone NuraTrue and JBL Endurance Peak have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation makes use of more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 hence "diluting" the noise.
The JBL Endurance Peak have ANC allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.
Nuraphone NuraTrue too have ANC which makes either of the earbuds ideal for plane rides and morning travels. The JBL Endurance Peak and Nuraphone NuraTrue operate with different noise cancellation types, pick the mode that suits your commute or that enhances your relaxation time.

JBL Endurance Peak have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size determines the loudness of the earbuds.
Nuraphone NuraTrue driver unit is 10mm in diameter,
making both Nuraphone NuraTrue, and JBL Endurance Peak similar in how loud their sound can get
, many people have a misconception 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound.
The JBL Endurance Peak's lowest frequency is at 16Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio component produces low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Nuraphone NuraTrue's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
JBL Endurance Peak can produce a juicier bass than the Nuraphone NuraTrue
The JBL Endurance Peak's highest frequency is at 22,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio component produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Nuraphone NuraTrue's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
JBL Endurance Peak can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Nuraphone NuraTrue
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Nuraphone NuraTrue's measurement is 108dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
JBL Endurance Peak's battery life is 4 hours, these last less than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
Nuraphone NuraTrue's battery life is
more than that of JBL Endurance Peak 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 no longer play for long like they used to.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the vendor, and the JBL Endurance Peak's case is said to have a charge of 24 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go many times before having to recharge the case itself.

Nuraphone NuraTrue support USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
JBL Endurance Peak have Bluetooth version of 4.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Nuraphone NuraTrue has a Bluetooth version of 5,
newer than that of JBL Endurance Peak
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
JBL Endurance Peak have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
Nuraphone NuraTrue have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the JBL Endurance Peak
Nuraphone NuraTrue support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Nuraphone NuraTrue will work fine with your iPad. If you intend on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
