Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
JBL Wave Buds

Jabra Elite 7 Pro ✓
ANC utilises more advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) then adding -1 (inverted noise) to make zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
JBL Wave Buds have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise.
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro too have ANC making both devices ideal for flights and rush hour travels. The JBL Wave Buds and Jabra Elite 7 Pro work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the mode that suits your commute or that enhances your chill time.

Driver Unit Size
JBL Wave Buds
8mm
Jabra Elite 7 Pro 6mm
The JBL Wave Buds have a unit size of 8mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, its size corellates with the loudness of the device.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Wave Buds by 2mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they deliver better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
JBL Wave Buds
20Hz
Jabra Elite 7 Pro 20Hz
JBL Wave Buds'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.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
JBL Wave Buds
20000Hz
Jabra Elite 7 Pro 20000Hz
JBL Wave Buds's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component generates high human frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
JBL Wave Buds
100dB/mW
Jabra Elite 7 Pro ✗
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Wave Buds's measurement is 100dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
