Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
OnePlus Buds Pro 2
✓
JLab Go Air ✗
Active noise cancellation utilises more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero hence "diluting" the noise.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.

Driver Unit Size
OnePlus Buds Pro 2
11mm
JLab Go Air 8mm
The OnePlus Buds Pro 2 driver unit is 11mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, its size determines the sound produced by the device.
JLab Go Air driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of OnePlus Buds Pro 2 by 3mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
OnePlus Buds Pro 2
10Hz
JLab Go Air 20Hz
OnePlus Buds Pro 2's lowest frequency is at 10Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
JLab Go Air's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 produce a juicier bass than the JLab Go Air
Highest Frequency
OnePlus Buds Pro 2
40,000Hz
JLab Go Air 20,000Hz
OnePlus Buds Pro 2's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well a particular audio component generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
JLab Go Air's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 generate a clearer and crispier treble than the JLab Go Air
Sound Pressure Level
OnePlus Buds Pro 2
97dB/mW
JLab Go Air 103dB/mW
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, measured in decibels, dB, OnePlus Buds Pro 2's measurement is 97dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
JLab Go Air's sound pressure level measurement is 103dB/mW. The sound pressure level, something is can be taken differently by separate persons, so we need to have a way of getting a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
