Ingress protection ratings is the level of protection offered by a casing, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating represents protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX5, the Soundpeats Mini Pro's rating is read as, the first value of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand medium pressure jet that's 6.3mm diameter, similar to garden hose from any angle for 3 minutes at a distance of 2.5 to 3 metres.
Compared to the Soundpeats Mini Pro, Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX have a rating of IP57 meaning 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 that of liquids is that,

are heavier than the Soundpeats Mini Pro by of 2.06g
For a device to be true wireless it should have no wires connecting any part of the device together, Soundpeats Mini Pro are true wireless for this case since they have no cables. This is a major difference since wireless earbuds have wires connecting the 2 earbuds .
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX also is true wireless since it doesn't have wires connecting the 2 earbuds .
Soundpeats Mini Pro have sweat resistance
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc

Soundpeats Mini Pro have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX and Soundpeats Mini Pro have stereo speakers
ANC makes use of more advanced technology to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and 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 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Soundpeats Mini 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 overcome background noise.

Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX driver unit is 9.2mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Soundpeats Mini Pro by 0.8mm
, 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 yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through.
The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well a particular audio component generates high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro's battery life is 7 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
