IP ratings refer to the rating of protection given by a casing, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX4, the Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed'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.
In comparison to the Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed, OnePlus Buds Pro 2 have a rating of IP55 meaning 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 that of liquids is that,
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed has a lower liquid rating than OnePlus Buds Pro 2
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed have a weight of 12g . We take in account a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to carry.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2, at 9.8g
weigh less than the Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed by -2.2g
True wireless devices have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed are true wireless for this case since they don't have wires. This is a major difference as some wireless earbuds have wires connecting the pair of earbuds together.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 also is true wireless since it has no cables linking the 2 earbuds .
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed are resistant to sweat
OnePlus Buds Pro 2's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use during long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
An earbud foam is designed to be ultracompact and lightweight, with almost no interference with earrings, spectacles, hats, or hairstyles. The Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed have an earbud foam to some it is more comfortable than the in-ear foam.
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed have stereo speakers, what this means is that Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both OnePlus Buds Pro 2 and Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation makes use of advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) and producing -1 (inverted noise) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 too have ANC making both devices ideal for plane rides and morning travels. Each work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the noise cancellation type that suits your travel or that enhances your chill time.
The Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed stay tightly in place, creating an acoustic covering that reduces background noise well as preventing the device voice audio from leaking out .
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which means that they tone down ambient noise without using ANC to cancel it out.
The Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed driver unit is 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, its size corellates with the sound produced by the earbuds.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed by 1mm
, as many tend to believe 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 imply that they deliver better quality sound.
The Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2's lowest frequency is at 10Hz, this implies that
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 produce a juicier bass than the Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component generates high recognizable frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, this means that
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's measurement is 95dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2's sound pressure level measurement is 97dB/mW. How loud a device is can be taken differently by separate persons, so we need to have a way of getting an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's battery life is 6.5 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2's battery life is
more than that of Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed by 2.5 hours
. Each time you recharge your device, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
This is given by the manufacturer, and Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's case has a full charge of 24 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go several times before recharging the case itself.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2's charging case has a battery life of 30 hours,
more than that of Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed by 6 hours
It requires 3 hours to fully charge the Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's battery. It is recommended to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 takes 1 hours to fully charge the battery,
less than that of Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed by 2 hours

The OnePlus Buds Pro 2 support AAC as well. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate.
Latency refers to the time it takes for the audio signal to be transmitted to your earbuds. Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed have a latency of 40ms, a lower latency reduces audio lag and is particularly important when playing games or watching videos.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 have a latency of 54ms. In the audio field, latency is another word for a delay.
OnePlus Buds Pro 2 have 6 microphones.
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed use a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are designed to filter out noise from the earbuds' sound.
The OnePlus Buds Pro 2 too have a noise-canceling type of microphone. This is useful in noisy environments.
The Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed microphone sensitivity is measured at -26dBV/Pa. The extent of the analog or digital output signal from the microphone with its input stimulus is a measure of its sensitivity. It's the 'loudness' of the sound that the earbud microphone can recognize.
While the OnePlus Buds Pro 2 microphone sensitivity is measured at -38dBV/Pa. Microphone sensitivity is a measurement of a microphone's efficiency as a transducer.
The Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's highest mic frequency is 10,000Hz, high frequencies are best for picking up treble. The highest mic frequency of a microphone is known as its upper limiting frequency.
Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed's lowest mic frequency is 100Hz, low frequencies are best for picking up bass. The lowest mic frequency of a microphone is defined as its lower limiting frequency.
The Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to channel ambient noises so that they can still be heard even while wearing them
