Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
✓
Sony WF C500 ✗
Active noise cancellation makes use of advanced technology to actively counter noise. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (inverted noise) to make zero therefore "diluting" the noise.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.
Has Passive Noise Reduction

Sony WF C500 ✓
Sony WF C500 sit well in place, this creates an acoustic covering that reduces background sounds well as preventing the earbuds music from leaking out at the same.
Both Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro, and Sony WF C500 have passive noise reduction this implies that they tone down ambient noise without using ANC to cancel it out.
Driver Unit Size
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
11mm
Sony WF C500 5.8mm
The Sony WF C500 driver unit is 5.8mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the device, its size corellates with the sound produced by the earbuds.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Sony WF C500 by 5.2mm
, many people have a misconception 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 indicate that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
20Hz
Sony WF C500 20Hz
Sony WF C500's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well a particular audio device generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
20000Hz
Sony WF C500 20000Hz
Sony WF C500's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio component produces high recognizable frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
Has A Neodymium Magnet
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro
✗
Sony WF C500 ✓
Sony WF C500 have neodymium magnets, when used in earbuds produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output using less power to do so. They can help generate music at quite a high SPL, using high magnetic flux.
