are heavier than the Devialet Gemini by of 1.94g
True wireless devices have no wires connecting any part of the device together, Devialet Gemini are true wireless for this case since they don't have cables. This is a key distinction as some wireless earbuds have wires connecting the 2 earbuds together.
Soundpeats Mini Pro also is true wireless because it has no cables linking the pair of earbuds together.
Devialet Gemini have sweat resistance
Soundpeats Mini Pro's resistance to sweat makes both devices ideal for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
An earbud foam is made to be ultracompact and lightweight, with little interference with earrings, spectacles, hats, or hairstyles. The Soundpeats Mini Pro have an earbud foam to some it is more comfortable than the in-ear foam.
Devialet Gemini have stereo speakers, what this means is that Devialet Gemini's speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Soundpeats Mini Pro and Devialet Gemini have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of more advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero thus "diluting" the noise.
The Devialet Gemini have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background noise.

The Devialet Gemini sit well in place, creating a sound seal that tones down your environment noise and also prevents the earbuds music from leaking out .
Both Soundpeats Mini Pro, and Devialet Gemini have passive noise reduction which means that both limit ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out.
The Devialet Gemini have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size determines the sound produced by the earbuds.
Soundpeats Mini Pro driver unit is 10mm in diameter,
making both Soundpeats Mini Pro, and Devialet Gemini similar in how loud their sound gets
, 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 yes, 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 audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Devialet Gemini's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio device makes high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level 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.
The Devialet Gemini's battery life is 6 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Soundpeats Mini Pro'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 barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
This is given by the manufacturer, and the Devialet Gemini's case is said to have a full charge of 18 hours. A charging case with more battery hours allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before recharging the case itself.
Soundpeats Mini Pro's charging case has a battery life of 14 hours,
less than that of Devialet Gemini by 4 hours
It requires 1.5 hours to fully charge the Devialet Gemini's battery. It is highly adivsable to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
