Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)

✓
JBL LIVE 300 ✗
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 therefore "diluting" the noise.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise.
Has Passive Noise Reduction

✓
JBL LIVE 300 ✓
The JBL LIVE 300 stay tightly in place, this creates an acoustic covering that tones down background sounds while preventing the device voice audio from leaking out .
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction this implies that both limit ambient noise without using technology to cancel it out.
Driver Unit Size
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
10mm
JBL LIVE 300 5.8mm
JBL LIVE 300 have a unit size of 5.8mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, the unit size corellates with the loudness of the device.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro driver unit is 10mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL LIVE 300 by 4.2mm
, 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 yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
20Hz
JBL LIVE 300 20Hz
The JBL LIVE 300's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
20000Hz
JBL LIVE 300 20000Hz
JBL LIVE 300's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well a particular audio component produces high human frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
25dB/mW
JBL LIVE 300 95dB/mW
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL LIVE 300's measurement is 95dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's sound pressure level measurement is 25dB/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.
