Jbl Wave Buds Review

IP ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by a casing, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (water).

Having a value of IP54, the JBL Wave Buds's rating for solids indicates 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. The JBL Wave Buds have a weight of 9g . We consider a lower weight best because lighter devices are more comfortable to move with.

True wireless devices have no wires linking any part of the device together, JBL Wave Buds are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables. This is a key distinction since wireless earbuds have cables linking the pair of earbuds together. JBL Wave Buds have sweat resistance JBL Wave Buds have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.

ANC uses more advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.

The JBL Wave Buds have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise. The JBL Wave Buds stay tightly in place, this creates an acoustic seal that tones down background noise well as preventing the device sound from leaking out . JBL Wave Buds have a unit size of 8mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass. A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size dictates the sound produced by the device.

The JBL Wave Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low 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, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it. SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Wave Buds's measurement is 100dB/mW.

Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source. The JBL Wave Buds's battery life is 8 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 longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.

This is given by the vendor, and the JBL Wave Buds's case has a full charge of 24 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before having to recharge the case itself. It takes 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Wave Buds's battery.

It is highly adivsable to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds for the first time. JBL Wave Buds have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the earbuds has a low battery. The battery indicator lights indicate the charging state of your device and charging case.

JBL Wave Buds use USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable. The JBL Wave Buds have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. JBL Wave Buds have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.

JBL Wave Buds support AAC, a codec that is 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.

Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the JBL Wave Buds will work fine with your MacBook. If you are planning on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well. JBL Wave Buds support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm.

It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps). JBL Wave Buds have 2 microphones. The JBL Wave Buds use a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are designed to reduce noise from the earbuds' sound. JBL Wave Buds microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa.

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 voice that the microphone can pick up. The JBL Wave Buds support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient noises so that they can still be heard even when wearing them JBL Wave Buds support in/on-ear detection, the sensors in the earbuds can detect when they are removed from your ears so that the music is paused.

When misplaced in a room, or can't easily find them in your bag, JBL Wave Buds have a find earbuds feature. JBL Wave Buds support fast charging. Most often, technologies like MediaTek’s Pump Express, are used to lower the time it takes to charge the earbuds.

The JBL Wave Buds support multipoint of 2 connections, this feature allows you to link to more than one Bluetooth device and switch between them. For example, you can seemlessly switch calls from one device to another without having to manually disconnect and reconnect. JBL Wave Buds have a mute function, they support the feature to mute/unmute a conversation directly from the device.

The JBL Wave Buds, so you can access the volume control, pause, play, mute, etc whichever features are supported on the earbuds. The JBL Wave Buds support voice prompts. Automatically receive information via audio messages, like if there is a problem with the connection.

JBL Wave Buds come with a special pouch. Carrying earphones openly, or putting them inside your pockets without a casing can easily damage them.
