IP ratings is the rank of protection offered by an enclosure, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX4, the JLab Go Air Pop's rating is read as, the first number of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. Compared to the JLab Go Air Pop, Beats Studio Buds have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids

Beats Studio Buds driver unit is 8.2mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JLab Go Air Pop by 2.2mm
, 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 it's true that, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound. JLab Go Air Pop's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal while at it.
Beats Studio Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
JLab Go Air Pop's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device produces high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it. Beats Studio Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JLab Go Air Pop's measurement is 103dB/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. How loud something is can be perceived differently by different persons, so we need to have a way of getting an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms. The JLab Go Air Pop's battery life is 8 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge.
A device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often. Beats Studio Buds's battery life is
equal to that of the JLab Go Air Pop
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
This is given by the vendor, and the JLab Go Air Pop's case is said to have a charge of 24 hours.

Beats Studio Buds has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
newer than that of JLab Go Air Pop
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
JLab Go Air Pop have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth. Beats Studio Buds have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the JLab Go Air Pop
JLab Go Air Pop support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps.
Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the JLab Go Air Pop will work well with your iPad. If you are planning on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The Beats Studio Buds support AAC as well. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate. JLab Go Air Pop have 2 microphones.
While the Beats Studio Buds microphones are 6,
more than that of JLab Go Air Pop by 4
. More microphones record better sound quality and help the device to filter out noise. JLab Go Air Pop microphone sensitivity is measured at -42dBV/Pa. The vastness of the analog or digital output signal from the microphone with its input stimulus is a measure of its sensitivity.
