Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating refers to protection against solids such as dust, while the second 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, Technics EAH AZ80 have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
no data available to specify a protection rating
and that of liquids is that,
Technics EAH AZ80 has a lower liquid rating than Samsung Galaxy Buds3
Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have a weight of 9.4g . We prefer a lower weight better for the reason that lighter devices are easier to move with.
Technics EAH AZ80, at 14g
weigh more than the Samsung Galaxy Buds3 by of 4.6g
True wireless devices have no wires connecting any part of the device together, Samsung Galaxy Buds3 are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables. This is a major difference since wireless earbuds have wires linking the pair of earbuds together. Technics EAH AZ80 also is true wireless since it has no cables linking the pair of earbuds .
Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have sweat resistance
Technics EAH AZ80's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The Technics EAH AZ80 also have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of advanced technology to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background noise. The Technics EAH AZ80 too have ANC which makes both earbuds ideal for plane rides and rush hour travels. The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 and Technics EAH AZ80 operate with different noise cancellation settings, pick the mode that you prefer for commute or that suites your chill time.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have a unit size of 11mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass. A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the earbuds, the unit size corellates with the sound made by the earbuds. Technics EAH AZ80 driver unit is 10mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds3 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 yes, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not indicate that they produce better quality sound. Samsung Galaxy Buds3's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. Technics EAH AZ80's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
The Samsung Galaxy Buds3's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well an audio device generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Technics EAH AZ80's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, this implies that
Technics EAH AZ80 can generate a clearer and crispier treble than the Samsung Galaxy Buds3
Samsung Galaxy Buds3's battery life is 6 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often. Technics EAH AZ80's battery life is
more than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds3 by 1.5 hours
. Each time you recharge your device, they get a little less listening time.
The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time. This is given by the manufacturer, and the Samsung Galaxy Buds3's case has a full charge of 24 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go many times before having to recharge the case itself.
Technics EAH AZ80's charging case has a battery life of 17.5 hours,
less than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds3 by 6.5 hours
It requires 5 hours to fully charge the Samsung Galaxy Buds3's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds when they have been in storage for extended periods. Technics EAH AZ80 takes 2 hours to fully charge the battery,
less than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds3 by 3 hours
The Samsung Galaxy Buds3, the device supports wireless charging.
To charge the device, you simply put down on a supported charging pad. Technics EAH AZ80 also support wireless charging, take note of the charging standard of the earbuds. The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the earbuds has a low battery.
Its lights show the charging status of your device and case. Technics EAH AZ80 too have a battery level indicator, these allow you to tell the charging state of your device, if charged fully, or the battery is running low. The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 use USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.

Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have Bluetooth version of 5.4, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data movement between devices placed in range, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Technics EAH AZ80 has a Bluetooth version of 5.3,
older than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds3
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers. The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth. Technics EAH AZ80 have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Samsung Galaxy Buds3
Samsung Galaxy Buds3 support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio.
It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Samsung Galaxy Buds3 will work fine with your iPhone.
If you intend 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. The Technics EAH AZ80 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.
