IP ratings is the level of protection given by a casing, against solids and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX4, the Devialet Gemini'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 Devialet Gemini, 1More Aero have a rating of IPX5 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
1More Aero has a higher liquid rating than Devialet Gemini
Devialet Gemini have a weight of 8g . We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are more comfortable to transport.
For a device to be true wireless it must have no cables linking any part of the device together, Devialet Gemini are true wireless for this matter since they have no wires. This is a key difference as some wireless earbuds have cables linking the pair of earbuds together.
1More Aero also is true wireless because it doesn't have cables connecting the two earbuds .
Devialet Gemini are resistant to sweat
1More Aero's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
Devialet Gemini 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 1More Aero also have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
The Devialet Gemini have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't need to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise.
The 1More Aero too have Active Noise Cancellation making both earbuds ideal for flights and morning travels. Each operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the noise cancellation type that suits your commute or that suites your chill time.
The Devialet Gemini sit well in place, creating an acoustic covering that reduces background sounds and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out at the same.
Both 1More Aero, and Devialet Gemini have passive noise reduction this implies that they tone down ambient noise without using technology to cancel it out.
Devialet Gemini driver unit is 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, its size determines the loudness of the earbuds.
1More Aero driver unit is 10mm in diameter,
making both devices similar in how loud their sound can get
, 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 yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
Devialet Gemini's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
1More Aero's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
Devialet Gemini produce a juicier bass than the 1More Aero
The Devialet Gemini's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component makes high audible frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it.
1More Aero's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, Devialet Gemini's measurement is 94dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Devialet Gemini's battery life is 6 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
1More Aero's battery life is
more than that of Devialet Gemini by 1 hours
. Every time you recharge your device, they get a little less playing time. The effect is not noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the vendor, and the Devialet Gemini's case is said to have a charge of 18 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.
