Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)

✓
Jabra Elite 5 ✓
ANC uses advanced technology to actively counter noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero thus "diluting" the noise.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background noise.
Jabra Elite 5 too have ANC which makes either of the devices ideal for plane rides and rush hour travels. The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and Jabra Elite 5 operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the setting that suits your commute or that enhances your chill time.

Driver Unit Size
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
10mm
Jabra Elite 5 6mm
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, its size determines the loudness of the earbuds.
Jabra Elite 5 driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro 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 it's true that, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
20Hz
Jabra Elite 5 20Hz
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Jabra Elite 5's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
Highest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
20000Hz
Jabra Elite 5 20000Hz
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio component generates high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Jabra Elite 5's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices can generate equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
25dB/mW
Jabra Elite 5 ✗
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's measurement is 25dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
