Ingress protection ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by a casing, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX4, the Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second value of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. Compared to the Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro, Beats Fit Pro have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,

Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 therefore "diluting" the noise.

which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro by 1.1mm
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.

Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
The Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component makes high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro generate a clearer and crispier treble than the Beats Fit Pro
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro's measurement is 92dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Beats Fit Pro's sound pressure level measurement is 101.3dB/mW. The sound pressure level, a device is can be taken differently by separate persons, so we need to have the means to get an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms. The Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro'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 commonly given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often. Beats Fit Pro's battery life is
less than that of Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro by 1 hours
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, 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.
