IP ratings is the level of protection given by a casing, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value means protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IPX4, the Sony WF C700N's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second number of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes.
Compared to the Sony WF C700N, Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
Sony WF C700N have a weight of 9.2g . We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to carry.
The Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS, at 8.12g
weigh less than the Sony WF C700N with a difference -1.08g
True wireless devices have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Sony WF C700N are true wireless for this matter since they don't have cables. This is a major distinction as some wireless earbuds have wires connecting the 2 earbuds together.
Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS also is true wireless because it has no wires connecting the two earbuds together.
Sony WF C700N are resistant to sweat

Both Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS and Sony WF C700N have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation makes use of more advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Sony WF C700N have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background noise.
Sony WF C700N stay tightly in place, creating an acoustic covering that tones down your environment sounds and also prevents the earbuds music from leaking out at the same.
The Sony WF C700N driver unit is 5mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the device, the unit size dictates the sound produced by the earbuds.
Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS driver unit is 14.2mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Sony WF C700N by 9.2mm
, 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 yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
The Sony WF C700N's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
Sony WF C700N's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component produces high human frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it.
Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, this implies that
Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Sony WF C700N
