Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)

Active noise cancellation makes use of advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then 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 since you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro too have ANC making either of the earbuds ideal for flights and morning travels. Each work with different noise cancellation settings, pick the mode that you prefer for commute or that enhances your chill time.
Has Passive Noise Reduction

Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro ✓
The JBL Wave Buds sit tightly in place, creating an acoustic covering that tones down your environment noise well as preventing the device sound from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction this implies that they tone down ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out.
Driver Unit Size
JBL Wave Buds
8mm
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro 10mm
The JBL Wave Buds driver unit is 8mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the earbuds, its size dictates the loudness of the device.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro driver unit is 10mm in diameter,
making them have a larger 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 mean that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
JBL Wave Buds
20hz
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro 20hz
JBL Wave Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device produces low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
JBL Wave Buds
20,000hz
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro 20,000hz
The JBL Wave Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio component generates high human frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices can generate equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
JBL Wave Buds
100db/mw
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro 25db/mw
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, measured 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.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's sound pressure level measurement is 25dB/mW. The sound pressure level, a device is can be considered differently by different people, so we need to have the means to get an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
