Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live
✓
JBL Wave Beam ✓
ANC utilises advanced technology to actively counter noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero hence "diluting" the noise.
JBL Wave Beam have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live too have ANC which makes either of the earbuds ideal for flights and rush hour travels. The JBL Wave Beam and Samsung Galaxy Buds Live operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the mode that you prefer for commute or that suites your chill time.

making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Wave Beam by 4mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.

Lowest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live
20Hz
JBL Wave Beam 20Hz
The JBL Wave Beam's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal bass
Highest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live
20,000Hz
JBL Wave Beam 20,000Hz
The JBL Wave Beam's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component makes high human frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live
✗
JBL Wave Beam 100dB/mW
