Ingress protection ratings refer to the rank of protection offered by an enclosure, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value of the IP rating represents protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to protection 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, Nothing Ear 1 have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,

Active noise cancellation uses advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (noise) and producing -1 (inverted noise) giving 0 which results in a reduced level of noise.
Soundpeats Mini Pro have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.
