making both devices similar in how loud their sound gets
, 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 yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound. OnePlus Buds Z2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can produce equal bass
The OnePlus Buds Z2's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
