Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection given by an enclosure, against solids and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IP57, the Samsung Galaxy Buds3's rating for solids indicates 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 are protected against temporary immersion in water under set conditions, say 1 metre for 30 minutes. Compared to the Samsung Galaxy Buds3, Nothing Ear 1 have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
no data available to specify a protection rating
and that of liquids is that,
Samsung Galaxy Buds3 has a higher liquid rating than Nothing Ear 1

Active noise cancellation utilises more advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds.
ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) and producing -1 (inverted noise) to make 0 therefore "diluting" the noise.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't need to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise.

making them have a larger driver unit than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds3 by 0.6mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yes, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound.
Samsung Galaxy Buds3's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio component generates low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal while at it. Nothing Ear 1's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
Samsung Galaxy Buds3's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component makes high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it. Nothing Ear 1's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
The Samsung Galaxy Buds3's battery life is 6 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge.

Nothing Ear 1 has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
older than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds3
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth. Nothing Ear 1 have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Samsung Galaxy Buds3
