Nothing Headphone (1) vs JBL Live 780NC

The Nothing Headphone (1) and JBL Live 780NC are both over-ear headphones. Like the brand's other entries, the Nothing have a distinct look that makes them a fashion item while retaining functionality. They're more stable than the JBL and have an IP52 rating, making them potentially a better option in the gym, but both headphones suffer in the comfort department. The JBL have superior Bluetooth connection options, featuring lower latency across common codecs SBC and LDAC, while also providing LC3 support that isn't available on the Nothing. And while the JBL have better performing ANC, and a nearly double 60.5-hour battery life, the Nothing support USB audio and have a parametric EQ, offering more options in the audio department.
