Beats

Sennheiser		—
Bluetooth and codecsBluetooth 5.4 (Classic and LE Audio); SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX Adaptive/Lossless, LC3; A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, TMAP, PBP

aptX Lossless needs a Snapdragon Sound phone that supports it; an iPhone uses AAC. According to Sennheiser, Auracast broadcast listening only arrives through a firmware update. Multipoint lets it switch between two devices.

BatteryUp to 7.5 hours per charge (ANC off) / up to 7 hours (ANC on); up to 30 hours total with the case; lithium-ion, 75 mAh per earbud, 820 mAh case

Times were measured with an iPhone at medium volume (85 dB). According to Sennheiser, 8 minutes of charging gives about 1 hour of playback; the battery protect mode in the app slows charging and slightly lowers maximum capacity to extend battery lifespan.

Sennheiser		Up to 40 hours with ANC off, up to 24 hours with ANC or Transparency on; Fast Fuel gives up to 4 hours from a 10-minute charge; rechargeable lithium-ion

Charging is via USB-C; no power adapter is included.

Noise cancelling—Fully adaptive Active Noise Cancelling (ANC); Transparency mode

Adaptive ANC keeps adjusting the cancellation to the fit and surrounding noise. Transparency mode passes outside sounds such as announcements or traffic through the microphones.

Beats
Spatial audio—Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking; Dolby Atmos content

Head tracking keeps sound anchored to the screen as you turn your head; this works with Apple devices.

Beats
Wired audio—Lossless audio over USB-C with three sound profiles (Beats Signature, Entertainment, Conversation); 3.5 mm analogue input

On a USB-C cable the headphones act as a digital audio interface; the sound profiles are only selectable on this connection: Signature for music, Entertainment for films and games, Conversation for calls and podcasts. The 3.5 mm input is for analogue sources such as in-flight entertainment.

Beats
Wireless—Class 1 Bluetooth; on Apple: one-touch pairing, “Hey Siri” and Find My; on Android: Google Fast Pair, Audio Switch and Find My Device

Class 1 Bluetooth uses higher transmit power for longer range and fewer dropouts. Beats says pairing on Apple spreads to every device on the iCloud account; on Android the Beats app adds settings.
