Ingress protection ratings is the rating of protection offered by a casing, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Scoring IPX4, the Technics EAH AZ60's rating is read as, the first value of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second value 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 Technics EAH AZ60, JEET W1S have a rating of IPX5 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
JEET W1S has a higher liquid rating than Technics EAH AZ60
Technics EAH AZ60 have a weight of 14g . We consider a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to move with.
The JEET W1S, at 18g
are heavier than the Technics EAH AZ60 with a difference of 4g
For a device to be true wireless it must have no cables linking any part of the device together, Technics EAH AZ60 are true wireless for this matter since they don't have wires. This is a major distinction since wireless earbuds have cables connecting the 2 earbuds .
JEET W1S have wingtips, these are commonly used for workout earbuds and are usually an optional add-on to each silicone ear tip for a more secure fit.
Technics EAH AZ60 have sweat resistance
JEET W1S's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
Technics EAH AZ60 have stereo speakers, what this means is that Technics EAH AZ60's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
The JEET W1S also have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation utilises advanced technology to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it studies the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) giving zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Technics EAH AZ60 have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.
Technics EAH AZ60 stay well in place, this creates a sound seal that reduces background sounds well as preventing the earbuds voice audio from leaking out .
Both JEET W1S, and Technics EAH AZ60 have passive noise reduction this implies that both tone down ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out.
Technics EAH AZ60 driver unit is 8mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the earbuds, the unit size determines the loudness of the earbuds.
JEET W1S driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Technics EAH AZ60 by 3mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
JEET W1S's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through.
JEET W1S's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device generates high human frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal on its way through.
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JEET W1S's measurement is 93dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Technics EAH AZ60's battery life is 7.5 hours, a device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
JEET W1S's battery life is
more than that of Technics EAH AZ60 by 3.5 hours
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
This is given by the vendor, and the Technics EAH AZ60's case has a full charge of 25 hours. A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before recharging the case itself.
It requires 2 hours to fully charge the Technics EAH AZ60's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds when they have been unused for long periods.
The Technics EAH AZ60 have a battery level indicator, an indicator notifies you when the device has a low battery. Its lights show the charging status of your earbuds and charging case.
JEET W1S too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you tell the charging state of your device, if charged fully, or having a low battery.
The Technics EAH AZ60 support USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
The Technics EAH AZ60 have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
JEET W1S has a Bluetooth version of 4.1,
older than that of Technics EAH AZ60
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
Technics EAH AZ60 have a 10meters distance to connect via Bluetooth.
JEET W1S have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Technics EAH AZ60
Technics EAH AZ60 support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Technics EAH AZ60 will work well with your iPad. If you are planning on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The JEET W1S support AAC as well. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate.
Technics EAH AZ60 support LDAC, a codec developed by Sony
which allows streaming high-resolution audio over Bluetooth connections at up to 990 kbps at 32 bit/96 kHz.
It can reach a high bitrate of 990kbps, providing high-resolution audio.
JEET W1S support it as well, LDAC, can automatically adjust to a lower bitrate of 330kbps or 660kbps to increase stability.
