Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
Beats Fit Pro
✓
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX ✓
Active noise cancellation uses advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 hence "diluting" the noise.
The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background sounds.
The Beats Fit Pro too have ANC making either of the devices ideal for flights and rush hour travels. Each work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the noise cancellation type that suits your travel or that enhances your chill time.

Driver Unit Size
Beats Fit Pro
9.5mm
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX 9.2mm
The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX driver unit is 9.2mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, the unit size determines the loudness of the earbuds.
Beats Fit Pro driver unit is 9.5mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX by 0.3mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not mean that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Beats Fit Pro
20Hz
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX 20Hz
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal while at it.
Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
Beats Fit Pro
20000Hz
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX 20000Hz
The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio device makes high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
Beats Fit Pro
101.3dB/mW
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX ✗
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Beats Fit Pro's measurement is 101.3dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Has A Neodymium Magnet
Beats Fit Pro
✓
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX ✗
The Beats Fit Pro have neodymium magnets, if used in audio devices produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output using less power to do so. They can help generate music at quite a high sound pressure level, using high magnetic flux.
