IP ratings is the level of protection offered by a casing, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating refers to protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).
Having a value of IP68, the JBL Reflect Aero TWS's rating is read as, the first value of 6 denotes that they are completely dust proof, and of liquids 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..

The Beats Fit Pro also have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation uses advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (inverted noise) giving zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
The JBL Reflect Aero TWS 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 earbuds volume to outcompete background noise. The Beats Fit Pro too have Active Noise Cancellation which makes either of the devices ideal for flights and rush hour travels. The JBL Reflect Aero TWS and Beats Fit Pro work with different noise cancellation types, pick the noise cancellation type that suits your commute or that suites your chill time.

JBL Reflect Aero TWS driver unit is 6.8mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass. The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the earbuds, the unit size corellates with the sound made by the earbuds.
Beats Fit Pro driver unit is 9.5mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Reflect Aero TWS by 2.7mm
, as many tend to believe 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 mean that they produce better quality sound. The JBL Reflect Aero TWS's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
The JBL Reflect Aero TWS's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio component produces high human frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through. Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Reflect Aero TWS's measurement is 99dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Beats Fit Pro's sound pressure level measurement is 101.3dB/mW. How loud something is can be taken differently by different people, so we need to have a way of getting an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms. JBL Reflect Aero TWS's battery life is 8 hours, these last longer 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 have to charge the device less often. Beats Fit Pro's battery life is
less than that of JBL Reflect Aero TWS by 1 hours
. Every time you recharge your earbuds, 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 the JBL Reflect Aero TWS's case has a full charge of 16 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.

equal to that of the JBL Reflect Aero TWS
JBL Reflect Aero TWS have 6 microphones. The Beats Fit Pro microphones are 6,
equal to that of the JBL Reflect Aero TWS
. More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out noise.
The JBL Reflect Aero TWS have a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are designed to filter out noise from the desired sound. The Beats Fit Pro too have a noise-canceling type of microphone. Especially useful in noisy environments.
