Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
JBL Tune 230NC
✓
Beats Studio Buds ✓
Active noise cancellation utilises advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero hence "diluting" the noise.
The JBL Tune 230NC have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.
Beats Studio Buds too have ANC which makes either of the earbuds ideal for plane rides and morning commutes. Each operate with different noise cancellation types, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for commute or that enhances your relaxation time.

Driver Unit Size
JBL Tune 230NC
6mm
Beats Studio Buds 8.2mm
The JBL Tune 230NC have a unit size of 6mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, the unit size determines the loudness of the device.
Beats Studio Buds driver unit is 8.2mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Tune 230NC by 2.2mm
, many people have a misconception 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
JBL Tune 230NC
20hz
Beats Studio Buds 20hz
The JBL Tune 230NC's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Beats Studio Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal bass
Highest Frequency
JBL Tune 230NC
20,000hz
Beats Studio Buds 20,000hz
JBL Tune 230NC's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well an audio component makes high recognizable frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
Beats Studio Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices can produce equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
JBL Tune 230NC
105db/mw
Beats Studio Buds 100.5db/mw
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Tune 230NC's measurement is 105dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Beats Studio Buds's sound pressure level measurement is 100.5dB/mW. The sound pressure level, a device is can be perceived differently by separate persons, so we need to have the means to get a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
