IP ratings is the level of protection offered by a casing, against solids and water. 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).
Having a value of IPX4, the Technics EAH AZ80's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids 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
Technics EAH AZ80 have a weight of 14g . We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to move with.
Beats Fit Pro, at 11.2g
are lighter than the Technics EAH AZ80 with a difference -2.8g
For a device to be true wireless it must have no cables connecting any part of the device together, Technics EAH AZ80 are true wireless for this case since they don't have wires. This is a major distinction as some wireless earbuds have cables linking the pair of earbuds together. Beats Fit Pro also is true wireless because it has no wires linking the two earbuds .
Technics EAH AZ80 have sweat resistance
Beats Fit Pro's resistance to sweat makes both devices ideal for use during long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc

The Beats Fit Pro also have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation makes use of more advanced technology to actively counter noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and inverts the soundwaves to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) and producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero hence "diluting" the noise.
Technics EAH AZ80 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 outcompete background sounds. The Beats Fit Pro too have Active Noise Cancellation making either of the earbuds ideal for plane rides and rush hour commutes. Each work with different noise cancellation types, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for travel or that enhances your relaxation time.

The Technics EAH AZ80 driver unit is 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass. The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, the unit size determines the loudness of 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
, a common assumption 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 indicate that they produce better quality sound. Technics EAH AZ80's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal while at it.
Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
The Technics EAH AZ80's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well a particular audio device makes high human frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it. Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this implies 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 before recharge. 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
. Each time you recharge your device, they get a little less listening time. The effect is not noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time. The battery life of the charging case is given by the vendor, and the Technics EAH AZ80's case is said to have a full charge of 17.5 hours.
A charging case with a longer battery life enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go many 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
