IP 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 represents protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IP68, the JBL Reflect Aero TWS's rating for solids indicates 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..
Compared to the JBL Reflect Aero TWS, Jabra Elite 7 Pro have a rating of IP57 meaning that
JBL Reflect Aero TWS has a higher dust resistance than Jabra Elite 7 Pro
and that of liquids is that,
Jabra Elite 7 Pro has a lower liquid rating than JBL Reflect Aero TWS
The JBL Reflect Aero TWS have a weight of 13g . We consider a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to transport.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro, at 10.8g
are lighter than the JBL Reflect Aero TWS by -2.2g
True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, JBL Reflect Aero TWS are true wireless for this case since they don't have wires. This is an important distinction since wireless earbuds have wires connecting the 2 earbuds .
Jabra Elite 7 Pro also is true wireless because it doesn't have cables linking the 2 earbuds together. JBL Reflect Aero TWS have wingtips, these are reserved for workout earbuds and come as an optional add-on to the separate silicone ear tip for a better fit.

JBL Reflect Aero TWS have stereo speakers, what this means is that JBL Reflect Aero TWS's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience. The Jabra Elite 7 Pro also have stereo speakers
ANC utilises advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise.
ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) and adding -1 (inverted noise) to make 0 therefore "diluting" the noise.
The JBL Reflect Aero TWS have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise.

JBL Reflect Aero TWS have a unit size of 6.8mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Reflect Aero TWS by 0.8mm
, as many tend to believe 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 mean that they produce better quality sound. JBL Reflect Aero TWS's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can produce equal bass
The JBL Reflect Aero TWS's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component makes high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it. Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, measured 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.

Jabra Elite 7 Pro has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
equal to that of the JBL Reflect Aero TWS
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers. JBL Reflect Aero TWS have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth. Jabra Elite 7 Pro have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the JBL Reflect Aero TWS
The JBL Reflect Aero TWS have 6 microphones.
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro microphones are 8,
more than that of JBL Reflect Aero TWS by 2
. More microphones record better sound quality and enable the earbuds to filter out noise. JBL Reflect Aero TWS have a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are made to filter out background sounds from the desired sound. The Jabra Elite 7 Pro too have a noise-canceling microphone.
This is useful in noisy areas. The JBL Reflect Aero TWS support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient sound to still be heard even when wearing the earbuds
