Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection offered by a casing, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IPX5, the 1More Aero's rating for solids indicates 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, Nothing Ear 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,
Nothing Ear 1 has a lower liquid rating than 1More Aero
The Nothing Ear 1 have a weight of 9.4g . We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are easier to move with.
For a device to be true wireless it must have no cables connecting any part of the device together, 1More Aero are true wireless for this matter since they have no wires. This is a key difference as some wireless earbuds have wires linking the two earbuds .
Nothing Ear 1 also is true wireless since it doesn't have cables linking the 2 earbuds together.
1More Aero have sweat resistance
Nothing Ear 1's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
1More Aero have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Nothing Ear 1 and 1More Aero have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation uses advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
1More Aero have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't need to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.
The Nothing Ear 1 too have Active Noise Cancellation which makes both devices ideal for plane rides and rush hour travels. The 1More Aero and Nothing Ear 1 work with different noise cancellation settings, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for commute or that enhances your relaxation time.
The 1More Aero stay tightly in place, creating a sound seal that tones down background sounds well as preventing the earbuds music from leaking out .
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction this implies that they reduce ambient noise without using ANC to cancel it out.
The 1More Aero have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size determines the sound made by the earbuds.
Nothing Ear 1 driver unit is 11.6mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of 1More Aero by 1.6mm
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
1More Aero's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio device produces low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal while at it.
Nothing Ear 1's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal bass
The 1More Aero's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio component makes high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
Nothing Ear 1's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies 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 before recharge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.

Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the 1More Aero will work fine with your iPhone. 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 1More Aero have 6 microphones.
While the Nothing Ear 1 microphones are 6,
equal to that of the 1More Aero
. More microphones record better sound quality and enable the earbuds to filter out background sounds.
