Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)

✓
Nuraphone NuraTrue ✓
Active noise cancellation uses advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and then generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero hence "diluting" the noise.
The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background noise.
Nuraphone NuraTrue too have Active Noise Cancellation which makes either of the devices ideal for flights and morning commutes. Each operate with different noise cancellation settings, pick the setting that suits your travel or that suites your relaxation time.

Driver Unit Size
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX
9.2mm
Nuraphone NuraTrue 10mm
The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX have a unit size of 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 makes sound in the earbuds, its size dictates the sound made by the device.

making them have a larger driver unit than that of Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX by 0.8mm
, 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not indicate that they deliver better quality sound.

both devices can produce equal bass
Highest Frequency
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX
20000Hz
Nuraphone NuraTrue 20000Hz
