IP ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by a casing, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX4, the Marshall Minor III's rating is read as, the first value 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 Marshall Minor III, Jabra Evolve2 Buds have a rating of IP54 meaning that
ingress of dust is not totally prevented but dust does not enter in harmful quantities to interfere with the correct operation or impair safety
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
The Marshall Minor III have a weight of 8g . We prefer a lower weight best because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry.

The Marshall Minor III have a unit size of 12mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the device, the unit size dictates the sound produced by the device. Jabra Evolve2 Buds driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Marshall Minor III by 6mm
, 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
Marshall Minor III's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component generates low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. Jabra Evolve2 Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Marshall Minor III's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component produces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. Jabra Evolve2 Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
The Marshall Minor III's battery life is 5 hours, these last less than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge.

Marshall Minor III support USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable. Jabra Evolve2 Buds too use USB TYPE-C.
This USB-C plug is part and parcel of most current electronics. The Marshall Minor III have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. Jabra Evolve2 Buds has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
Marshall Minor III have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth. Jabra Evolve2 Buds have a maximum range of 20meters,
longer than that of Marshall Minor III by 10meters
The Marshall Minor III support APTX HD, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It supports high-quality 24-bit audio (at a bit rate of 576kbps).
Marshall Minor III have 2 microphones.
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds microphones are 6,
more than that of Marshall Minor III by 4
. More microphones result in better sound quality and help the earbuds to filter out background sounds. The Marshall Minor III support in/on-ear detection, the sensors in the device can detect when they are removed from your ears .
The Jabra Evolve2 Buds too support in/on-ear detection, automatically pauses your music, or audiobook when you remove earbuds from your ears saving battery life. Marshall Minor III support fast charging.
Commonly, technologies like Qualcomm’s Quick Charge, are used to lower the time it takes to charge a device. The Jabra Evolve2 Buds too support fast charging. It's very similar to regular charging, only that the battery fills up much faster.
For example, with Quick Charge 3.0, the battery can be charged to 50% in just 30 minutes. Marshall Minor III have a mute function, they support the feature to mute/unmute a conversation directly from the earbuds. The Jabra Evolve2 Buds too support the mute function.
