IP57 water and sweat resistance is a standout upgrade, giving strong protection against sweat, rain, dust, and brief immersion compared with prior generations.
IP57 water and dust resistance is repeatedly highlighted as a major plus for workouts and daily durability. Most reviews still caution that it’s not meant for swimming or extended submersion, and the case may not share the same protection.
The buds and case carry an IP54 dust and water resistance rating, making them well-suited for sweaty workouts, commutes, and light rain. They’re still not designed for rinsing under a faucet or submersion.
The earbuds are repeatedly cited as IP55-rated, making them suitable for sweaty workouts and light rain. Several reviews note the case typically does not have an IP rating.
IP52 is unusual for over‑ear ANC headphones and helps with sweat and light splashes, but it’s a limited rating—fine for commutes and light gym use, not heavy rain or soaking.
The earbuds are commonly noted as IP54 dust and splash resistant, making them suitable for workouts and rain. Reviews consistently note this is not sufficient for swimming or heavy water exposure.
IPX4 water/sweat resistance is consistently noted, making them suitable for sweat and light rain. They are not intended for heavy water exposure or submersion.
IPX4 is repeatedly noted as sufficient for sweat and light rain during workouts/commutes; the charging case typically lacks water resistance, so care is needed in wet conditions.
There is no official IP water/sweat rating, so these are best treated as travel and office headphones rather than workout gear; caution is advised around heavy sweat or rain.
Multiple sources point out the PX7 S3 lack an advertised water/sweat resistance (no IP rating), indicating they should be treated as non-waterproof. This positions them as better suited for commuting, office, and travel rather than workouts in heavy sweat or rain exposure. Overall, water resistance is effectively absent/unspecified.
There is no official water or sweat resistance rating, and multiple reviewers explicitly caution against wearing the Momentum 4 in rain or using it as a workout headphone.
The QuietComfort Ultra lack any formal water or sweat resistance rating, so reviewers advise against heavy workouts or extended use in rain, framing them as primarily indoor and travel headphones.
There is no water or sweat resistance rating, and the headphones are explicitly described as not waterproof. They are best treated as indoor/commute headphones rather than workout gear.
These headphones do not carry an official water or sweat resistance rating, so this review recommends avoiding heavy workouts or wet weather and treating them primarily as indoor or travel-focused cans.
