Both the Baseus MC1 Pro and the QCY Crossky C50 offer an open-ear fit, providing comfort without blocking out external sounds. The Baseus model is rated IP67 for ingress protection, making it both waterproof and more resistant to dust and debris. In contrast, the QCY Crossky C50 has a slightly lower rating of IPX5, which means it is water-resistant but not fully waterproof like the Baseus model.

Both products are wireless, with no cables, and neither includes wingtips. Additionally, neither model features RGB lighting or a UV light, and neither has a display. Both have stereo speakers for audio output.

In terms of water protection, the Baseus MC1 Pro stands out with its higher waterproof rating, while the QCY Crossky C50 provides a solid water resistance level with its IPX5 rating.

Sound quality:

has passive noise reduction
lowest frequency 20 Hz 20 Hz
highest frequency 40000 Hz 20000 Hz
supports spatial audio
has Dolby Atmos
has Dirac Virtuo
has a neodymium magnet

The Baseus MC1 Pro and the QCY Crossky C50 both lack active noise cancellation (ANC) and passive noise reduction, so neither offers enhanced isolation from external sounds. They also both support a frequency range starting at 20 Hz, ensuring deep bass frequencies, but they differ in their high-frequency response. The Baseus model has a broader range, reaching up to 40,000 Hz, while the QCY model is limited to 20,000 Hz, potentially offering less high-frequency clarity.

Neither product supports spatial audio, Dolby Atmos, or Dirac Virtuo, and neither uses a neodymium magnet in its speaker drivers. These features are absent in both models, so sound quality differences will likely be limited to the frequency range and basic driver characteristics.

Overall, the most notable difference in sound quality specs is the higher maximum frequency of the Baseus MC1 Pro, which may result in a slightly richer sound experience in the treble range compared to the QCY Crossky C50.
