IP ratings is the level of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating refers to protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IPX7, the Raycon Fitness Earbuds's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second value of 7 means that they are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes. Compared to the Raycon Fitness Earbuds, JBL Wave Beam 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,
JBL Wave Beam has a lower liquid rating than Raycon Fitness Earbuds
Raycon Fitness Earbuds have a weight of 141.75g . We take in account a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to carry.
JBL Wave Beam, at 8.8g
weigh less than the Raycon Fitness Earbuds with a difference -132.95g
True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, Raycon Fitness Earbuds are true wireless for this case since they have no wires. This is a major difference as some wireless earbuds have wires linking the two earbuds together. JBL Wave Beam also is true wireless because it has no cables connecting the two earbuds .
Raycon Fitness Earbuds have sweat resistance
JBL Wave Beam's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
The Raycon Fitness Earbuds are both dustproof and water-resistant.
Raycon Fitness Earbuds have stereo speakers, what this means is that Raycon Fitness Earbuds's speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience. Both JBL Wave Beam and Raycon Fitness Earbuds have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation utilises advanced technology to actively counter noise. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and generates a mirror signal to counter it.
In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Raycon Fitness Earbuds have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds. The JBL Wave Beam too have ANC which makes either of the devices ideal for flights and rush hour commutes.
Each operate with different noise cancellation settings, pick the setting that suits your commute or that suites your chill time. The Raycon Fitness Earbuds sit well in place, this creates an acoustic covering that tones down your environment sounds while preventing the device voice audio from leaking out at the same. Both JBL Wave Beam, and Raycon Fitness Earbuds have passive noise reduction which means that both tone down ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out.
Raycon Fitness Earbuds have a unit size of 8mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass. The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size determines the sound produced by the earbuds. JBL Wave Beam driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
making both devices similar in how loud their sound gets
, 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 yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound. The Raycon Fitness Earbuds's lowest frequency is at 10Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. JBL Wave Beam's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
Raycon Fitness Earbuds produce a juicier bass than the JBL Wave Beam
The Raycon Fitness Earbuds's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
JBL Wave Beam's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
Raycon Fitness Earbuds generate a clearer and crispier treble than the JBL Wave Beam
Raycon Fitness Earbuds's battery life is 12 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings. JBL Wave Beam's battery life is
less than that of Raycon Fitness Earbuds by 4 hours
. Every time you recharge your device, they get a little less listening time.
The effect is not noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time. This is given by the vendor, and Raycon Fitness Earbuds's case has a charge of 44 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go many times before recharging the case itself.
JBL Wave Beam's charging case has a battery life of 24 hours,
less than that of Raycon Fitness Earbuds by 20 hours
It requires 1 hours to fully charge the Raycon Fitness Earbuds's battery. It is highly adivsable to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds for the first time. JBL Wave Beam takes 2 hours to fully charge the battery,
more than that of Raycon Fitness Earbuds by 1 hours
The Raycon Fitness Earbuds have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the device has a low battery.
The battery indicator lights show the charging status of your device and case. JBL Wave Beam too have a battery level indicator, these allow you to tell the charging state of your earbuds, if charged fully, or having a low battery. The Raycon Fitness Earbuds support USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
JBL Wave Beam too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current laptops, phones, and tablets. The Raycon Fitness Earbuds have Bluetooth version of 5.3, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
JBL Wave Beam has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
older than that of Raycon Fitness Earbuds
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers. Raycon Fitness Earbuds have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth. JBL Wave Beam have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Raycon Fitness Earbuds
Raycon Fitness Earbuds have 4 microphones.
While the JBL Wave Beam microphones are 2,
less than that of Raycon Fitness Earbuds by 2
. More microphones record better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background sounds. The Raycon Fitness Earbuds have a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are intended to reduce noise from the earbuds' sound. The JBL Wave Beam too use a noise-canceling microphone.
This is useful in noisy environments. The Raycon Fitness Earbuds support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to channel ambient sound to still be heard even while wearing them
The JBL Wave Beam support ambient sound mode as well, it’s useful when you want to listen to music while being aware of what’s happening around you, for example when you’re having a run but would still want to hear traffic. The Raycon Fitness Earbuds support fast charging.
Commonly, technologies like MediaTek’s Pump Express, are used to reduce the time it takes to fully charge the earbuds. JBL Wave Beam too support fast charging. This kind is similar to regular charging, only that the battery fills up much faster.
Say, with Quick Charge 3.0, the battery can be charged to 50% in thirty minutes.
