Technics Eah Az80 Vs. Jbl Wave Buds Review

IP ratings refer to the rating of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value means protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).

Scoring IPX4, the Technics EAH AZ80's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second value of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. Compared to the Technics EAH AZ80, JBL Wave Buds 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, they both have the same rating against liquids The Technics EAH AZ80 have a weight of 14g . We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to transport.

JBL Wave Buds, at 9g are lighter than the Technics EAH AZ80 with a difference -5g True wireless devices have no wires linking any part of the device together, Technics EAH AZ80 are true wireless for this case since they have no wires. This is a major distinction as some wireless earbuds have cables connecting the two earbuds together. JBL Wave Buds also is true wireless since it doesn't have wires linking the two earbuds . Technics EAH AZ80 have sweat resistance JBL Wave Buds's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc Technics EAH AZ80 have stereo speakers, what this means is that Technics EAH AZ80's speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.

Both JBL Wave Buds and Technics EAH AZ80 have stereo speakers Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and then generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 therefore "diluting" the noise.

Technics EAH AZ80 have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds. JBL Wave Buds too have Active Noise Cancellation making both devices ideal for plane rides and rush hour commutes. The Technics EAH AZ80 and JBL Wave Buds work with different noise cancellation types, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for commute or that enhances your relaxation time.

Technics EAH AZ80 stay well in place, creating a sound covering that tones down your environment sounds and also prevents the device voice audio from leaking out . Both of these devices have passive noise reduction this implies that both limit ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out. Technics EAH AZ80 have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass. The driver unit is the component that makes sound in the device, the unit size determines the loudness of the earbuds.

JBL Wave Buds driver unit is 8mm in diameter, which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 2mm , as many tend to believe 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. Technics EAH AZ80's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, 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 on its way through.

JBL Wave Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that both devices can make sound with equal bass Technics EAH AZ80's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. JBL Wave Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that Technics EAH AZ80 generate a clearer and crispier treble than the JBL Wave Buds The Technics EAH AZ80's battery life is 7.5 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.

JBL Wave Buds's battery life is more than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 0.5 hours . Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time. This is given by the vendor, and Technics EAH AZ80's case has a charge of 17.5 hours.

A charging case with more battery hours allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go many times before having to recharge the case itself. JBL Wave Buds's charging case has a battery life of 24 hours, more than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 6.5 hours It requires 2 hours to fully charge the Technics EAH AZ80's battery. It is recommended to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds when they have been in storage for long periods.

JBL Wave Buds takes 2 hours to fully charge the battery, equal to that of the Technics EAH AZ80 Technics EAH AZ80, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the earbuds, you just put down on a compatible charging pad. The Technics EAH AZ80 have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the earbuds has a low battery.

Its lights show the charging state of your device and case. JBL Wave Buds too have a battery level indicator, these allow you to tell the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or having a low battery. Technics EAH AZ80 have USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.

JBL Wave Buds too have USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current electronics. The Technics EAH AZ80 have Bluetooth version of 5.3, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in range, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.

The Technics EAH AZ80 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth. JBL Wave Buds have a maximum range of 10meters, equal to that of the Technics EAH AZ80 Technics EAH AZ80 support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio.

It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.

Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Technics EAH AZ80 will work well 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 JBL Wave Buds support AAC as well. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate.
