IP ratings is the rank 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 such as dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IPX5, the JBL Live Pro 2's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand medium pressure jet that's 6.3mm diameter, similar to garden hose from any angle for 3 minutes at a distance of 2.5 to 3 metres. In comparison to the JBL Live Pro 2, Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro have a rating of IPX7 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
JBL Live Pro 2 has a lower liquid rating than Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
The JBL Live Pro 2 have a weight of 9.6g . We prefer a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to transport.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro, at 12.6g
are heavier than the JBL Live Pro 2 with a difference of 3g
True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, JBL Live Pro 2 are true wireless for this case since they don't have cables. This is a key difference since wireless earbuds have cables linking the pair of earbuds together. Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro also is true wireless since it doesn't have cables linking the pair of earbuds .
JBL Live Pro 2 have sweat resistance
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use during long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
JBL Live Pro 2 have stereo speakers, what this means is that JBL Live Pro 2's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro also have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and then generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 thus "diluting" the noise.
The JBL Live Pro 2 have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise. The Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro too have Active Noise Cancellation which makes either of the earbuds ideal for plane rides and rush hour commutes. The JBL Live Pro 2 and Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro work with different noise cancellation settings, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for travel or that suites your relaxation time.
The JBL Live Pro 2 stay tightly in place, this creates an acoustic 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 means that both reduce ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out. JBL Live Pro 2 have a unit size of 11mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size determines the sound produced by the earbuds. Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making both devices similar in how loud their sound gets
, 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 yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
JBL Live Pro 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio component produces low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
The JBL Live Pro 2's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces high recognizable frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it. Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
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 Live Pro 2'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 usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's battery life is
less than that of JBL Live Pro 2 by 2 hours
. Each time you recharge your device, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to. This is given by the manufacturer, and JBL Live Pro 2's case has a charge of 30 hours.
A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before recharging the case itself. Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's charging case has a battery life of 20 hours,
less than that of JBL Live Pro 2 by 10 hours
It requires 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Live Pro 2's battery. It is highly adivsable to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro takes 1 hours to fully charge the battery,
less than that of JBL Live Pro 2 by 1 hours
