are heavier than the Devialet Gemini with a difference of 2g
For a device to be true wireless it must have no wires connecting any part of the device together, Devialet Gemini are true wireless for this case since they don't have wires. This is a key distinction since wireless earbuds have wires connecting the two earbuds .
Tozo T10S also is true wireless because it doesn't have cables connecting the two earbuds together.
Devialet Gemini have sweat resistance
Tozo T10S's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use during 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, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The Tozo T10S also have stereo speakers
Tozo T10S are rated 1meters any depth more than that they will be damaged. Devices that can withstand more water pressure are better for diving.
Active noise cancellation uses advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
The Devialet Gemini have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.
Devialet Gemini sit well in place, creating an acoustic covering that tones down background noise and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out .
Both of these devices 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, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size corellates with the loudness of the earbuds.
Tozo T10S driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Devialet Gemini by 2mm
, 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 it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound.
Devialet Gemini's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio component generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal while at it.
Tozo T10S's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
Devialet Gemini produce a juicier bass than the Tozo T10S
The Devialet Gemini's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device produces high audible frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
Tozo T10S's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
both devices can generate equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure of sound, measured 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 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.
Tozo T10S's battery life is
more than that of Devialet Gemini by 2 hours
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, 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 vendor, and Devialet Gemini's case has a full charge of 18 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before recharging the case itself.
Tozo T10S's charging case has a battery life of 28 hours,
more than that of Devialet Gemini by 10 hours
It takes 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.
Tozo T10S takes 2 hours to fully charge the battery,
more than that of Devialet Gemini by 0.5 hours
Devialet Gemini's battery capacity is 55mAh, battery power, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can keep.
Devialet Gemini, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the earbuds, you just put down on a supported charging pad.
Devialet Gemini have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the device has a low battery. Its lights show the charging state of your earbuds and charging case.
Tozo T10S too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators enable you to determine the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or having a low battery.
The Devialet Gemini use USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
Tozo T10S too have USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current electronics.
Devialet Gemini have Bluetooth version of 5, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Tozo T10S has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
newer than that of Devialet Gemini
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
Devialet Gemini have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
Tozo T10S have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Devialet Gemini
Devialet Gemini support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Devialet Gemini will work well with your MacBook. If you are planning on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The Tozo T10S 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 Devialet Gemini support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps).
The Devialet Gemini have 2 microphones.
The Tozo T10S microphones are 2,
equal to that of the Devialet Gemini
. More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the earbuds to filter out background sounds.
