IP ratings refer to the level of protection given by a casing, against dust and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating means protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IPX5, the Soundpeats Mini Pro's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second number of 5 means 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, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,

An earbud foam is made to be ultracompact and lightweight, with almost no interference with earrings, spectacles, hats, or hairstyles. The Soundpeats Mini Pro have an earbud foam for some people it is more comfortable than the in-ear foam.
Soundpeats Mini Pro have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 and Soundpeats Mini Pro have stereo speakers
ANC utilises advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and after inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (inverted noise) giving zero hence "diluting" the noise.
Soundpeats Mini Pro have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.

Soundpeats Mini Pro driver unit is 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size corellates with the loudness of the device.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 driver unit is 7mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Soundpeats Mini Pro by 3mm
, 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 deliver better quality sound.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device produces low audible frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's highest frequency is at 21000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device makes high human frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal on its way through.
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's measurement is 107dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
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 longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's battery life is
equal to that of the Soundpeats Mini Pro
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the manufacturer, and Soundpeats Mini Pro's case has a full charge of 14 hours. A charging case with more battery hours allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before having to recharge the case itself.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's charging case has a battery life of 21 hours,
more than that of Soundpeats Mini Pro by 7 hours
It takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the Soundpeats Mini Pro's battery. It is highly adivsable to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds when they have been unused for extended periods.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 takes 1.5 hours to fully charge the battery,
equal to that of the Soundpeats Mini Pro
Soundpeats Mini Pro's battery power is 45mAh, battery power, shows the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the earbuds, you just put down on a compatible charging pad.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro have a battery level indicator, an indicator shows you when the earbuds has a low battery. The battery indicator lights display the charging state of your earbuds and charging case.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 too have a battery level indicator, these enable you determine the charging state of your earbuds, if charged fully, or the battery is running low.
The Soundpeats Mini Pro have USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current laptops, phones, and tablets.
