Our Verdict

JBL Endurance Sprint Wireless

JBL Endurance Dive Wireless

The JBL Endurance Sprint Wireless and the JBL Endurance Dive are almost identical headphones in design. Their in-ear fit is the same, and the only real difference between these models is that the Dive have a shorter and thicker cable, which is better suited for swimmers. Performance-wise, they are very similar, but the Sprint have a small edge over the Dive. Their sound profile is more accurate, and we measured about two additional hours of continuous playback time on the Sprint. On the other hand, the control scheme of the Dive feels a bit more responsive, and they have helpful onboard storage since Bluetooth protocol won’t work in the water. They also have a better wireless range.
