Ingress protection ratings refer to the rank of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value means protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (sweat).

Having a value of IPX4, the JBL Tune Flex's rating is read as, the first value of X denotes 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. The JBL Tune Flex have a weight of 9.6g . We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to transport.

ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero therefore "diluting" the noise.

The magnitude of the analog or digital output signal from the microphone with its input stimulus is a calculation of its sensitivity.

It's the 'loudness' of the sound that the microphone can pick up.
