Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
OnePlus Buds Z2
✓
JLab Go Air ✗
Active noise cancellation uses advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 hence "diluting" the noise.
The OnePlus Buds Z2 have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.
Has Passive Noise Reduction

JLab Go Air ✓
JLab Go Air sit tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces background sounds while preventing the earbuds sound from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction this means that both reduce ambient noise without using technology to cancel it out.
Driver Unit Size
OnePlus Buds Z2
11mm
JLab Go Air 8mm
JLab Go Air have a unit size of 8mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the earbuds, its size corellates with the sound made by the device.
OnePlus Buds Z2 driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JLab Go Air by 3mm
, as many tend to believe 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
OnePlus Buds Z2
20Hz
JLab Go Air 20Hz
JLab Go Air's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component produces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
OnePlus Buds Z2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
OnePlus Buds Z2
20000Hz
JLab Go Air 20000Hz
JLab Go Air's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio device produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
OnePlus Buds Z2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
both devices can generate equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
OnePlus Buds Z2
✗
JLab Go Air 103dB/mW
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JLab Go Air's measurement is 103dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Has A Neodymium Magnet

JLab Go Air ✓
JLab Go Air have neodymium magnets, when used in audio devices produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output using less power to do so. They can help generate music at quite a high SPL, with the use of high magnetic flux.
