JEET W1S's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
Marshall Minor III have stereo speakers, what this means is that Marshall Minor III's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both JEET W1S and Marshall Minor III have stereo speakers
JEET W1S sit tightly in place, this creates a sound seal that tones down your environment noise and also prevents the device music from leaking out at the same.
The Marshall Minor III driver unit is 12mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is the component that makes sound in the device, its size determines the sound produced by the earbuds.
JEET W1S driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Marshall Minor III by 1mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so it's true that, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound.
Marshall Minor III's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal while at it.
JEET W1S's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Marshall Minor III's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio component generates high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
JEET W1S's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, JEET W1S's measurement is 93dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
The Marshall Minor III's battery life is 5 hours, a device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
JEET W1S's battery life is
more than that of Marshall Minor III by 6 hours
. Every time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
This is given by the manufacturer, and the Marshall Minor III's case has a full charge of 25 hours. A charging case with more battery hours allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before having to recharge the case itself.
It takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the Marshall Minor III's battery. It is highly adivsable to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
Marshall Minor III, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the device, you simply place down on a compatible charging pad.
The Marshall Minor III have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the device has a low battery. Its lights display the charging state of your device and case.
JEET W1S too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you to determine the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
Marshall Minor III support USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
The Marshall Minor III have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
JEET W1S has a Bluetooth version of 4.1,
older than that of Marshall Minor III
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
Marshall Minor III have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
JEET W1S have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
JEET W1S support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the JEET W1S will work fine with your iPad. If you intend on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
JEET W1S 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 can reach a high bitrate of 990kbps, which provides high-resolution audio.
The JEET W1S support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps).
JEET W1S 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 Marshall Minor III 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).
JEET W1S support APTX HD too.
Latency refers to the time it takes for the audio signal to be transmitted to your earbuds. JEET W1S have a latency of 88ms, a lower latency reduces audio lag and is particularly important when playing games or watching videos.
Marshall Minor III have 2 microphones.
While the JEET W1S microphones are 1,
less than that of Marshall Minor III by 1
. More microphones result in better sound quality and help the earbuds to filter out background sounds.
