Ingress protection ratings is the rank of protection offered by an enclosure, against dust and water. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value represents protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX4, the Technics EAH AZ80'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. In comparison to the Technics EAH AZ80, Beats Fit Pro 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
The Technics EAH AZ80 have a weight of 14g . We take in account a lower weight best because lighter devices are easier to transport.
The Beats Fit Pro, at 11.2g
are lighter than the Technics EAH AZ80 by -2.8g
True wireless devices have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Technics EAH AZ80 are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables. This is a key difference since wireless earbuds have cables linking the two earbuds .
Beats Fit Pro also is true wireless because it doesn't have cables linking the two earbuds together. Technics EAH AZ80 have sweat resistance
Beats Fit Pro's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
Technics EAH AZ80 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.
The Beats Fit Pro also have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation utilises advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and after inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (inverted noise) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The Technics EAH AZ80 have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise. The Beats Fit Pro too have ANC which makes both earbuds ideal for flights and morning travels. The Technics EAH AZ80 and Beats Fit Pro operate with different noise cancellation settings, pick the setting that you prefer for commute or that enhances your relaxation time.
The Technics EAH AZ80 stay tightly in place, creating a sound seal that reduces background sounds and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out .
Both Beats Fit Pro, and Technics EAH AZ80 have passive noise reduction this means that both tone down ambient noise instead of actively using technology to cancel it out. The Technics EAH AZ80 have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass. The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, the unit size corellates with the sound made by the earbuds.
Beats Fit Pro driver unit is 9.5mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 0.5mm
, as many tend to believe 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. Technics EAH AZ80's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Technics EAH AZ80's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device generates high human frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
Technics EAH AZ80 can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Beats Fit Pro
Technics EAH AZ80's battery life is 7.5 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Beats Fit Pro's battery life is
less than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 0.5 hours
. Every time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less listening time. The effect is not noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time. The battery life of the charging case is given by the vendor, and Technics EAH AZ80's case has a charge of 17.5 hours.
A charging case with a longer battery life allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before recharging the case itself. Beats Fit Pro's charging case has a battery life of 21 hours,
more than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 3.5 hours
It requires 2 hours to fully charge the Technics EAH AZ80's battery. It is highly adivsable to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
Beats Fit Pro takes 1 hours to fully charge the battery,
less than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 1 hours

Technics EAH AZ80 have Bluetooth version of 5.3, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Beats Fit Pro has a Bluetooth version of 5,
older than that of Technics EAH AZ80
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers. Technics EAH AZ80 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth. Beats Fit Pro have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Technics EAH AZ80
Technics EAH AZ80 support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio.
It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since 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 AZ80 will work fine with your iPhone.
If you are planning on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well. The Beats Fit Pro 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 AZ80 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 is capable of a very high bitrate of 990kbps, which provides high-resolution audio. Technics EAH AZ80 have 8 microphones.
The Beats Fit Pro microphones are 6,
less than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 2
. More microphones record better sound quality and enable the device to filter out noise. Technics EAH AZ80 use a noise-canceling microphone, these microphones are made to reduce noise from the earbuds' sound. The Beats Fit Pro too have a noise-canceling microphone.
Especially useful in noisy environments. The Technics EAH AZ80 support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient sound to still be heard even while wearing them
