IP ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by an enclosure, against dust and water. 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 protection against liquids (water).
Having a value of IP54, the Nothing Ear 2's rating is read as, the first value of 5 denotes that ingress of dust is not totally prevented but dust does not enter in harmful quantities to interfere with the correct operation or impair safety, 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 Nothing Ear 2, Beats Fit Pro have a rating of IPX4 meaning that

both devices make sound with equal bass
Nothing Ear 2's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal treble
