Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection given by an enclosure, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX4, the Marshall Minor III's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes.
Compared to the Marshall Minor III, Tozo T10S have a rating of IPX8 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
Tozo T10S has a higher liquid rating than Marshall Minor III
Marshall Minor III have a weight of 8g . We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to move with.
Tozo T10S, at 10g
weigh more than the Marshall Minor III with a difference of 2g
True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, Marshall Minor III are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables. This is a major distinction as some wireless earbuds have wires connecting the pair of earbuds .
Tozo T10S also is true wireless because it has no cables linking the pair of earbuds .
Marshall Minor III are resistant to sweat
Tozo T10S's resistance to sweat makes both devices good 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 separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Tozo T10S and Marshall Minor III have stereo speakers
Tozo T10S are rated 1meters any depth more than that they will be spoilt. Devices that have a higher depth rating are better for swimming.
The Tozo T10S sit tightly in place, this creates an acoustic seal that reduces your environment noise and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out .
Marshall Minor III have a unit size of 12mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, the unit size dictates the sound produced by the earbuds.
Tozo T10S driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Marshall Minor III by 4mm
, 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 deliver better quality sound.
Marshall Minor III's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Tozo T10S's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
Marshall Minor III's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device makes high human frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
Tozo T10S's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
Marshall Minor III's battery life is 5 hours, these last less than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, 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 Marshall Minor III by 3 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 have shorter listening time.
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 enables 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 Marshall Minor III by 3 hours
It requires 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 when they have been in storage for long periods.
Tozo T10S takes 2 hours to fully charge the battery,
more than that of Marshall Minor III by 0.5 hours
The Marshall Minor III, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the device, you simply put down on a compatible charging pad.
Marshall Minor III have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the device has a low battery. The battery indicator lights show the charging state of your device and charging case.
Tozo T10S too have a battery level indicator, these allow you to determine the charging state of your earbuds, if charged fully, or having a low battery.
Marshall Minor III support USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
Tozo T10S too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current electronics.
The Marshall Minor III have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in range, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Tozo T10S has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
The Marshall Minor III have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
Tozo T10S have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
Tozo T10S support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Tozo T10S will work fine with your iPhone. 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 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).
Marshall Minor III have 2 microphones.
While the Tozo T10S microphones are 2,
equal to that of the Marshall Minor III
. More microphones record better sound quality and help the earbuds to filter out noise.
Marshall Minor III support in/on-ear detection, the sensors in the device can detect when they are removed from your ears .
Marshall Minor III support fast charging. Usually, technologies like Qualcomm’s Quick Charge, are used to lower the time it takes to fully charge the earbuds.
