Anker Soundbuds NB10 vs Bragi Dash

Not only do these have an IPX5 rating for splash/sweat resistance, but there also is a nano-coating applied to the interior parts. The chances of liquids causing damage to these are substantially minimized.

These have active noise cancelling which helps minimize outside noise frequencies that may mix with your music

The Anker NB10 earbuds have plastic hooks that go behind the ear. These help maintain a snug fit and prevent the earbuds from accidentally falling out of the ears.

The playback controls are placed on the earbuds, making it easy to switch tracks and change the volume without having to take out your phone or portable music player.

The IPX7 certification means these can work even when used while swimming. Do note however that increased water pressure (like when diving) can still cause damage.

The highs and mids have good detail but are not forward or boosted. Instead, they have a smooth quality to them that makes them easy to listen to. Bass quantity is pretty high, and with good power too.

The Dash features 4GB of internal memory. This allows the earbuds themselves to hold up to 1000 songs, which can be played without connecting to a music player or smart phone.

Users can make taps or swipes on the Bragi Dash's touch-sensitive areas on the earpieces. This can help to play or pause music, skip current track or play previous track, control volume as well as other functionality.

With these earbuds synced with the Bragi companion app, users can track fitness-related stats like heart rate, distance traveled and the like.
