Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
Sony WF 1000XM4

Marshall Minor III ✗
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (noise) then producing -1 (inverted noise) to make zero thus "diluting" the noise.
Sony WF 1000XM4 have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise.

6mm
Marshall Minor III 12mm

A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the device, the unit size corellates with the sound made by the device.
Sony WF 1000XM4 driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Marshall Minor III by 6mm
, 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 yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Sony WF 1000XM4
20Hz
Marshall Minor III 20Hz
The Marshall Minor III's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Sony WF 1000XM4's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
Highest Frequency
Sony WF 1000XM4
40000Hz
Marshall Minor III 20000Hz
The Marshall Minor III's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces high recognizable frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
Sony WF 1000XM4's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, this means that
Sony WF 1000XM4 can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Marshall Minor III
Has A Neodymium Magnet
