Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection offered by an enclosure, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value means protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX4, the Beats Fit Pro's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids 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 Beats Fit Pro, Mpow Flame S have a rating of IPX7 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
Beats Fit Pro has a lower liquid rating than Mpow Flame S
The Beats Fit Pro have a weight of 11.2g . We take in account a lower weight better because lighter devices are easier to transport.
For a device to be true wireless it should have no wires linking any part of the device together, Beats Fit Pro are true wireless for this case since they have no wires. This is an important distinction since wireless earbuds have wires connecting the two earbuds together.
Beats Fit Pro have wingtips, these are reserved for earbuds for workouts and are usually an optional add-on to the separate silicone ear tip for a better fit.
Mpow Flame S too have wingtips, these rest against the triangular fossa and form a secure fit to match vigorous movement, wingtips come in handy for sports and other physical activities. If used as directed, they prevent the earbuds from falling off.
Beats Fit Pro have sweat resistance
Mpow Flame S's resistance to sweat makes both devices ideal for use during long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
Beats Fit Pro have stereo speakers, what this means is that Beats Fit Pro's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The Mpow Flame S also have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation makes use of more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Beats Fit Pro have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise.
The Mpow Flame S too have ANC making either of the earbuds ideal for flights and rush hour travels. The Beats Fit Pro and Mpow Flame S work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the mode that suits your travel or that enhances your chill time.
The Beats Fit Pro sit tightly in place, this creates a sound covering that tones down your environment sounds and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which implies that both reduce ambient noise instead of actively using ANC to cancel it out.
Beats Fit Pro have a unit size of 9.5mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass. The driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, its size determines the sound made by the device.
The Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal while at it.
The Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it.
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.
Beats Fit Pro have neodymium magnets, if used in earbuds 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.
Beats Fit Pro'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 given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
Mpow Flame S's battery life is
more than that of Beats Fit Pro by 5 hours
. Each 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.
This is given by the vendor, and the Beats Fit Pro's case is said to have a charge of 21 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.
It takes 1 hours to fully charge the Beats Fit Pro's battery. It is recommended to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds when they have been unused for extended periods.
Beats Fit Pro's battery capacity is 55mAh, battery capacity, shows the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store.
Beats Fit Pro have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the earbuds has a low battery. Its lights show the charging status of your earbuds and charging case.
Mpow Flame S too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you to determine the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or having a low battery.
The Beats Fit Pro support USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
Beats Fit Pro have Bluetooth version of 5, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data transfers between devices placed in range, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Mpow Flame S has a Bluetooth version of 5,
equal to that of the Beats Fit Pro
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
Beats Fit Pro have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
Mpow Flame S have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Beats Fit Pro
Beats Fit Pro support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Beats Fit Pro will work fine with your MacBook. If you intend on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The Mpow Flame S 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.
The Mpow Flame S 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, which provides high-resolution audio.
The Mpow Flame S support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps).
Mpow Flame S support APTX Low Latency, a codec developed by Qualcomm. It uses Bluetooth 5.0 technology to provide low latency audio (around 40ms), which is useful when you want to avoid audio lag for example when playing games.
The Mpow Flame S support APTX HD, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It supports high-quality 24-bit audio (at a bit rate of 576kbps).
Latency refers to the time it takes for the audio signal to be transmitted to your earbuds. Beats Fit Pro have a latency of 70ms, a lower latency reduces audio lag and is particularly important when playing games or watching videos.
