IP ratings is the rating of protection given by a casing, against dust and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value represents protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
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 the second number of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. JBL Wave Buds have a weight of 9g . We take in account a lower weight better because lighter devices are easier to carry.
For a device to be true wireless it must have no cables linking any part of the device together, JBL Wave Buds are true wireless for this case since they don't have wires. This is a major difference since wireless earbuds have cables linking the 2 earbuds .
JBL Wave Buds have sweat resistance
JBL Wave Buds have stereo speakers, what this means is that JBL Wave Buds's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience. ANC uses more advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds.
ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (inverted noise) to make zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
The JBL Wave Buds have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.
The JBL Wave Buds stay well in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces your environment noise and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out at the same. JBL Wave Buds driver unit is 8mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass. The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, its size corellates with the sound made 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 frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. The JBL Wave Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device produces high recognizable frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it. SPL, is the pressure level 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. JBL Wave Buds's battery life is 8 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. 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 JBL Wave Buds's case is said to have a full charge of 24 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before recharging the case itself. It requires 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Wave Buds's battery.
It is recommended to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds when they have been unused for extended periods. JBL Wave Buds have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the earbuds has a low battery. The battery indicator lights indicate the charging state of your earbuds and case.
JBL Wave Buds use USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable. JBL Wave Buds have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. The JBL Wave Buds have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
JBL Wave Buds support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the JBL Wave Buds will work well with your iPad. 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. The 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 filter out noise from the desired sound. The JBL Wave Buds microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa.
The vastness 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 microphone can pick up. The JBL Wave Buds support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to channel ambient sound to still be heard even when wearing the earbuds
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 support the find earbuds feature. The JBL Wave Buds support fast charging. Most often, technologies like Qualcomm’s Quick Charge, are used to lower the time it takes to fully charge a device.
JBL Wave Buds have a multipoint of 2 connections, this feature allows you connect to more than one Bluetooth device and switch between them. Say, you can easily switch calls from one device to another without having to manually disconnect and reconnect. JBL Wave Buds have a mute function, they have the option to mute/unmute a conversation directly from the device.
With the JBL Wave Buds, so you can easily access the volume control, pause, play, mute, etc whichever functions are supported on the device. The JBL Wave Buds have voice prompts. Automatically receive information through audio messages, like if there is a problem with the connection.
JBL Wave Buds come with their own special pouch. Carrying earbuds without a case, or putting them in your pockets without a cover can easily put them at risk of getting damaged.
