IP ratings refer to the level of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating represents protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX5, the Soundpeats Mini Pro's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand medium pressure jet that's 6.3mm diameter, similar to garden hose from any angle for 3 minutes at a distance of 2.5 to 3 metres.
In comparison to the Soundpeats Mini Pro, 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,
Soundpeats Mini Pro has a higher liquid rating than JLab Go Air
Soundpeats Mini Pro have a weight of 9.94g . We take in account a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to move with.
JLab Go Air, at 10g
are heavier than the Soundpeats Mini Pro with a difference of 0.06g
True wireless devices have no wires linking any part of the device together, Soundpeats Mini Pro are true wireless for this case since they don't have wires. This is a key difference since wireless earbuds have wires connecting the pair of earbuds together.
JLab Go Air also is true wireless since it doesn't have wires linking the 2 earbuds .
Soundpeats Mini Pro have sweat resistance
JLab Go Air's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use during long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
An earbud foam is designed to be ultracompact and lightweight, with almost no interference with earrings, spectacles, hats, or hairstyles. The Soundpeats Mini Pro have an earbud foam for some people it is more comfortable than the in-ear foam.
Soundpeats Mini Pro have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The JLab Go Air also have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 thus "diluting" the noise.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears as you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro sit well in place, this creates an acoustic covering that reduces background noise and also prevents the device music from leaking out .
Both JLab Go Air, and Soundpeats Mini Pro have passive noise reduction this means that both limit ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro driver unit is 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the device, its size corellates with the sound made by the earbuds.
JLab Go Air driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Soundpeats Mini Pro by 2mm
, 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 imply that they deliver better quality sound.
The JLab Go Air's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
JLab Go Air's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, JLab Go Air's measurement is 103dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
The JLab Go Air have neodymium magnets, if used in earbuds produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output using less power to do so. They can help generate music at quite a high SPL, using high magnetic flux.
Soundpeats Mini Pro's battery life is 7 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
JLab Go Air's battery life is
less than that of Soundpeats Mini Pro by 2 hours
. Every 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 Soundpeats Mini Pro's case has a full charge of 14 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.
JLab Go Air's charging case has a battery life of 15 hours,
more than that of Soundpeats Mini Pro by 1 hours
It requires 1.5 hours to fully charge the Soundpeats Mini Pro's battery. It is highly adivsable to fully charge 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 Soundpeats Mini Pro
Soundpeats Mini Pro's battery power is 45mAh, battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store.
JLab Go Air's battery power is 43mAh.
less than that of Soundpeats Mini Pro by 2mAh
Soundpeats Mini Pro have a battery level indicator, an indicator alerts you when the earbuds has a low battery. Its lights indicate the charging state of your device and case.
JLab Go Air too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you tell the charging state of your earbuds, if charged fully, or the battery is running low.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro use USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
Soundpeats Mini Pro 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 Soundpeats Mini Pro
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
Soundpeats Mini Pro have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
JLab Go Air have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Soundpeats Mini Pro
Soundpeats Mini Pro support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Soundpeats Mini Pro will work fine with your iPad. If you are planning on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps).
Latency refers to the time it takes for the audio signal to be transmitted to your earbuds. Soundpeats Mini Pro have a latency of 60ms, a lower latency reduces audio lag and is particularly important when playing games or watching videos.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro have 6 microphones.
While the JLab Go Air microphones are 2,
less than that of Soundpeats Mini Pro by 4
. More microphones record better sound quality and help the earbuds to filter out noise.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro use a noise-canceling microphone, these microphones are made to reduce background sounds from the desired sound.
The JLab Go Air microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa. The amount of the analog or digital output signal from the microphone with its input stimulus is a measure of its sensitivity. It's the 'loudness' of the voice that the earbud microphone can pick up.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to channel ambient noises to still be heard even when wearing them
If misplaced in a room, or can't be found in your bag, the Soundpeats Mini Pro support the find earbuds feature.
Soundpeats Mini Pro support fast charging. Most often, technologies like Qualcomm’s Quick Charge, are used to reduce the time it takes to fully charge a device.
