IP ratings refer to the rating of protection given by an enclosure, against solids and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating refers to 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 True Wireless Earbuds (2nd Gen)'s rating is read as, the first number of X denotes 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 Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Earbuds (2nd Gen), 1More Aero have a rating of IPX5 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
1More Aero has a higher liquid rating than Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Earbuds (2nd Gen)

Both 1More Aero and Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Earbuds (2nd Gen) have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation makes use of more advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and inverts the soundwaves to counter it.

1More Aero driver unit is 10mm in diameter,
making both 1More Aero, and Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Earbuds (2nd Gen) similar in how loud their sound gets
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Earbuds (2nd Gen)'s lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component generates low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
1More Aero's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Earbuds (2nd Gen)'s highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device produces high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
1More Aero's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
The Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Earbuds (2nd Gen)'s battery life is 6.5 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. 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.
