Ingress protection ratings refer to the level of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IPX4, the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)'s rating is read as, the first value of X denotes 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.
In comparison to the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen), Energy Sistem Sport 5 have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have a weight of 10.6g . We consider a lower weight best because lighter devices are more comfortable to transport.
The Energy Sistem Sport 5, at 18g
weigh more than the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) by of 7.4g
True wireless devices have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) are true wireless for this case since they have no wires. This is a major distinction since wireless earbuds have cables linking the 2 earbuds together.
Energy Sistem Sport 5 also is true wireless because it doesn't have wires linking the pair of earbuds .
The Energy Sistem Sport 5 come with wingtips, these are reserved for workout earbuds and come as an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a better fit.
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) are resistant to sweat
Energy Sistem Sport 5's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use during long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have stereo speakers, what this means is that Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)'s speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The Energy Sistem Sport 5 also have stereo speakers
ANC utilises advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background sounds.
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) stay well in place, this creates an acoustic seal that tones down your environment sounds and also prevents the device music from leaking out .
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction this implies that both limit ambient noise without using ANC to cancel it out.
Energy Sistem Sport 5 driver unit is 14mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass. A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size determines the loudness of the device.
The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)'s lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Energy Sistem Sport 5's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can produce equal bass
The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)'s highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio component produces high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Energy Sistem Sport 5's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices can generate equal treble
The Energy Sistem Sport 5 have neodymium magnets, if used in audio devices produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output while using less power. They can help produce music at quite a high SPL, with the use of high magnetic flux.
The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)'s battery life is 6 hours, a device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chanrgings.
Energy Sistem Sport 5's battery life is
less than that of Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) by 1 hours
. Every time you recharge your device, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the manufacturer, and Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)'s case has a full charge of 24 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go many times before recharging the case itself.
Energy Sistem Sport 5's charging case has a battery life of 20 hours,
less than that of Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) by 4 hours
It requires 1.5 hours to fully charge the Energy Sistem Sport 5's battery. It is recommended to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds when they have been unused for long periods.
Energy Sistem Sport 5's battery capacity is 40mAh, battery capacity, shows the amount of electrical energy that a battery can keep.
The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen), the device supports wireless charging. To charge the device, you simply put down on a compatible charging pad.
The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the device has a low battery. Its lights display the charging status of your earbuds and case.
Energy Sistem Sport 5 too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators enable you to determine the charging state of your device, if charged fully, or having a low battery.
The Energy Sistem Sport 5 have USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have Bluetooth version of 5.3, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in range, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Energy Sistem Sport 5 has a Bluetooth version of 5,
older than that of Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
The Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
Energy Sistem Sport 5 have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) will work well with your iPad. 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 Energy Sistem Sport 5 support AAC as well. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate.
Energy Sistem Sport 5 support LDAC, a codec developed by Sony which allows streaming high-resolution audio over Bluetooth connections at up to 990 kbps at 32 bit/96 kHz. It is capable of a very high bitrate of 990kbps, providing high-resolution audio.
