Ingress protection ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by an enclosure, against solids and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX4, the Beats Studio Buds's rating is read as, the first number of X denotes 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 Studio Buds, 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,
they both have the same rating against liquids

Beats Studio Buds have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience. The Beats Fit Pro also have stereo speakers
ANC utilises advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it.
Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (inverted noise) giving zero thus "diluting" the noise.
Beats Studio Buds have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise. Beats Fit Pro too have ANC which makes either of the devices ideal for flights and morning travels.

A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, the unit size dictates 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 Beats Studio Buds by 1.3mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound.
The Beats Studio Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component produces low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal while at it. Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
The Beats Studio Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device makes high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it. Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices can generate equal treble
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Beats Studio Buds's measurement is 100.5dB/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, something is can be taken differently by separate persons, so we need to have a way of getting a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
Beats Studio Buds's battery life is 8 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. 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 Beats Studio Buds by 1 hours

If you intend on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well. The Beats Fit Pro 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 Beats Studio Buds have 6 microphones. The Beats Fit Pro microphones are 6,
equal to that of the Beats Studio Buds
. More microphones record better sound quality and help the device to filter out background sounds. The Beats Studio Buds have a noise-canceling microphone, these microphones are made to filter out background sounds from the desired sound.
