Jbl Reflect Aero Vs. Nothing Ear 1 Review

Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection offered by an enclosure, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value means protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).

JBL Reflect Aero are resistant to sweat Nothing Ear 1's resistance to sweat makes both devices ideal for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc The JBL Reflect Aero are both dustproof and water-resistant.

JBL Reflect Aero have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience. Both Nothing Ear 1 and JBL Reflect Aero have stereo speakers Active noise cancellation utilises advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then generates a mirror signal to counter it.

Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero which results in a reduced level of noise.

JBL Reflect Aero have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds. Nothing Ear 1 too have Active Noise Cancellation making both devices ideal for plane rides and morning commutes.

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.

The JBL Reflect Aero's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Nothing Ear 1's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that both devices can make sound with equal bass The JBL Reflect Aero's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through. Nothing Ear 1's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that both devices generate equal treble SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JBL Reflect Aero's measurement is 99dB/mW.

Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
