Ingress protection ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by an enclosure, against solids and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IPX4, the Marshall Minor III's rating for solids indicates 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, JLab Go Air have a rating of IP44 meaning that
they are protected against objects greater than 1.0mm such as wire
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
Marshall Minor III have a weight of 8g . We consider a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are easier to transport.
JLab Go Air, at 10g
weigh more than the Marshall Minor III by of 2g
True wireless devices have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Marshall Minor III are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables. This is an important distinction as some wireless earbuds have cables connecting the 2 earbuds together. JLab Go Air also is true wireless since it doesn't have cables connecting the 2 earbuds .
Marshall Minor III have sweat resistance
JLab Go Air's resistance to sweat makes both devices ideal for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
Marshall Minor III have stereo speakers, what this means is that Marshall Minor III's speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both JLab Go Air and Marshall Minor III have stereo speakers
Marshall Minor III have a unit size of 12mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass. The driver unit is the component that makes sound in the device, the unit size corellates with the sound made by the device. JLab Go Air driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Marshall Minor III by 4mm
, a common assumption 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 indicate that they deliver better quality sound. Marshall Minor III's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through. JLab Go Air's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
The Marshall Minor III's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device makes high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
JLab Go Air's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices can 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 for a single charge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often. JLab Go Air's battery life is
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less playing time.
The effect is not noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time. This is given by the manufacturer, and Marshall Minor III's case has a full charge of 25 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before recharging the case itself.
JLab Go Air's charging case has a battery life of 15 hours,
less than that of Marshall Minor III by 10 hours
It takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the Marshall Minor III's battery. It is recommended to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds for the first time. JLab Go Air takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the battery,
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
The Marshall Minor III, the device supports wireless charging.
To charge the earbuds, you just put down on a supported charging pad. The Marshall Minor III have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the device has a low battery. Its lights indicate the charging state of your earbuds and case.
JLab Go Air too have a battery level indicator, these enable you tell the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low. Marshall Minor III have USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable. 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.
JLab Go Air has a Bluetooth version of 5,
older than that of Marshall Minor III
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers. The Marshall Minor III have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth. JLab Go Air have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
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).
The Marshall Minor III have 2 microphones. The JLab Go Air microphones are 2,
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
. More microphones record better sound quality and help the earbuds to filter out background sounds. Marshall Minor III support in/on-ear detection, the sensors in the device can detect when removed from your ears .
Marshall Minor III support fast charging.
Most often, technologies like Qualcomm’s Quick Charge, are used to reduce the time it takes to fully charge a device. Marshall Minor III have a mute function, they have the feature to mute/unmute a conversation directly from the earbuds. With the Marshall Minor III, so you can easily access the volume control, pause, play, mute, etc whichever features are supported on the device.
JLab Go Air too have a control panel on them. Marshall Minor III support voice prompts. Automatically receive information through audio messages, say if there is a problem with the connection.
The JLab Go Air too have voice prompts meaning the earbuds notifies you when the battery is running low, and you need to recharge the device. Marshall Minor III come with a special case. Carrying earphones openly, or placing them inside your bag without a casing may easily damage them.
