IP ratings refer to the rating of protection offered by a casing, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IPX2, the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they are protected against drops falling when tilted at 15° in 4 fixed positions.
In comparison to the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live, 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 Samsung Galaxy Buds Live
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Live have a weight of 11.2g . We consider a lower weight best because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry.
The Tozo T10S, at 10g
weigh less than the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live by -1.2g
True wireless devices have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Samsung Galaxy Buds Live are true wireless for this matter since they don't have wires. This is an important difference as some wireless earbuds have wires linking the 2 earbuds together.
Tozo T10S also is true wireless since it has no wires linking the 2 earbuds .
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live 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
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live have stereo speakers, what this means is that Samsung Galaxy Buds Live's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The Tozo T10S also have stereo speakers
Tozo T10S are rated 1meters any depth more than that you are likely to lose the functionality of your device. Devices that can withstand more water pressure are better for swimming.
ANC makes use of advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero thus "diluting" the noise.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Live have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.
Tozo T10S stay well in place, creating an acoustic covering that reduces background noise while preventing the device music from leaking out at the same.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Live have a unit size of 12mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, the unit size dictates the sound produced by the device.
Tozo T10S driver unit is 8mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds Live by 4mm
, a common assumption that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Live's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Tozo T10S's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device makes high human frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
Tozo T10S's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live's battery life is 6 hours, a device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, 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 Samsung Galaxy Buds Live by 2 hours
. Each time you recharge your device, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.

Tozo T10S's charging case has a battery life of 28 hours,
more than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds Live by 13 hours

equal to that of the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live will work fine with your iPad. 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.
