Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection offered by an enclosure, against solids and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX5, the 1More Aero's rating is read as, the first number of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand medium pressure jet that's 6.3mm diameter, similar to garden hose from any angle for 3 minutes at a distance of 2.5 to 3 metres.
Compared to the 1More Aero, BLX Earbuds Gen 1 have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
1More Aero has a higher liquid rating than BLX Earbuds Gen 1
BLX Earbuds Gen 1 have a weight of 44.5g . We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to move with.

ANC makes use of more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (inverted noise) giving 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The 1More Aero have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.

1More Aero driver unit is 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass. A driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the device.
1More Aero's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio component generates low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
BLX Earbuds Gen 1's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
1More Aero's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well an audio component generates high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it.
BLX Earbuds Gen 1's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
both devices can generate equal treble
1More Aero's battery life is 7 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
BLX Earbuds Gen 1's battery life is
less than that of 1More Aero by 2.5 hours
. Each time you recharge your device, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
