Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
✓
JBL Wave Buds ✓
ANC utilises advanced technology to actively cancel noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
JBL Wave Buds have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro too have Active Noise Cancellation which makes either of the devices ideal for plane rides and morning commutes. Each work with different noise cancellation types, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for travel or that suites your chill time.
Has Passive Noise Reduction

JBL Wave Buds ✓
JBL Wave Buds sit tightly in place, this creates a sound covering that reduces background sounds while preventing the device sound from leaking out .
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which implies that they reduce ambient noise instead of actively using ANC to cancel it out.
Driver Unit Size
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
11mm
JBL Wave Buds 8mm
JBL Wave Buds driver unit is 8mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is the component that produces sound in the earbuds, the unit size dictates the sound made by the device.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Wave Buds by 3mm
, as many tend to believe 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 are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
20Hz
JBL Wave Buds 20Hz
The JBL Wave Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
20,000Hz
JBL Wave Buds 20,000Hz
JBL Wave Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device produces high recognizable frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices can generate equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
✗
JBL Wave Buds 100dB/mW
The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure 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.
