Ingress protection ratings refer to the rank of protection given by a casing, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IP54, the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4's rating is read as, the first number of 5 denotes 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 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 Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4, Jabra Elite 85t have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
no data available to specify a protection rating
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 have a weight of 12.4g . We consider a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to carry.
The Jabra Elite 85t, at 14g
are heavier than the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 by of 1.6g
For a device to be true wireless it should have no wires connecting any part of the device together, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 are true wireless for this case since they don't have cables.

Both Jabra Elite 85t and Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 have stereo speakers
ANC uses advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds.
How it works, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise.
The Jabra Elite 85t too have ANC making both earbuds ideal for flights and rush hour travels. Each operate with different noise cancellation settings, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for commute or that enhances your relaxation time. Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 sit tightly in place, this creates an acoustic seal that reduces background noise and also prevents the device sound from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which implies that they limit ambient noise without using technology to cancel it out. The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 have a unit size of 7mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass. The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the earbuds.
Jabra Elite 85t driver unit is 12mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 by 5mm
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so it's true that, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they deliver better quality sound. Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, 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.
Jabra Elite 85t's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 produce a juicier bass than the Jabra Elite 85t
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4's highest frequency is at 21,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device makes high human frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it. Jabra Elite 85t's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Jabra Elite 85t
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4's measurement is 107dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4's battery life is 7.5 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge.
