Customer Ratings & Reviews

So I am no audiophile. I do however still want a clean sound. I use these at the office (home until the shelter-in is lifted) and for walks. I both listen to music and make phone calls. I was using Bose SoundLink AE wireless headset for awhile, but wanted in-ear buds instead. I love the Bose, they sound amazing and have a great battery life, but I just cannot stand having over-ear headsets. So I wanted to find some true wireless earbuds that sounded great, with a clean sound and nice bass profile. The Good: - Price -- although they don't have ANC, they are priced well below other premium earbuds and sound great with great features and build quality. - Excellent sound IMO - Nice bass without drowning out the mids and highs -- I used the app (Galaxy Wearable) to change the EQ to Dynamic and it sounds awesome! Also, if you Google it, there are some great YouTube tricks to update the settings on your phone to further max out the sound quality. Note, I have a Galaxy S10+. - Great sound quality on phone calls - Volume -- I hate when earbuds are low volume. These bad boys can get super loud. BUT, for some weird reason out of the box the max volume is very low. I almost returned them, as the instructions doesn't tell you how to increase the volume to their full potential. Thankfully I found a YouTube video that walks you through maxing out the volume. - Like the ambient sound feature for phone calls (which has different levels) - Very comfortable in my ear -- can wear for hours - They don't fall out -- I can go for brisk walks and runs and they stay in without losing a seal (which is important to have good sound) - The battery life is great -- 11 hours + another 11 hours with charging case - They look great -- very sleek and don't stick too far out of your ears - Solid build -- I bought a pair of Mpow M5 earbuds and although they were pretty nice, they had some quality issues - IPX2 rating -- good enough for working out or walks without worrying about damaging them from sweating - Tap control - I didn't want to have to click a button with earbuds, as that can get annoying. The Buds+ are pretty good with the sensitivity of the taps and the controls are just what I need: volume, pause, skip, answer calls, etc. - Customizable with the app -- can check battery status, customize sound with the preset EQ settings, and more. - Pairing -- maybe because I have a Samsung Galaxy phone, but as soon as I opened the case they paired right away with my phone - Independent ear buds -- these ear buds can be used independently, as opposed to the right ear bud being the main bud and the left dependent, which can cause bluetooth sync issues. Plus, if one of your ear buds is lower on battery, you can use the other for calls. I also think the sound quality is better with independent setup. - Noise isolation -- I had to put on the large eartips and are able to seat them nicely in my ears, which blocks out external noises very well. I don't need ANC as the isolation is fine for me. - Charging case -- very nice and solid. Love the magnets and the case is small enough to easily carry around. - Auto-reconnect -- they automatically reconnect to my phone when I open the case The Bad (there's nothing bad with them, but just less good LOL): - Can only pair with 1 device at a time. I guess you can pair more than one Samsung Galaxy device with the app -- but for non-Samsung devices, this is not possible. I have to unpair them from my phone in order to pair with my laptop for example. - Having to put the earbuds in the case to pair. I tried pairing while they were in my ears, to change devices, but didn't work for me. - No active noise cancelling (ANC) -- but for me that's not a problem as they seat in my ears well and isolate outside noise quite well. - Poor documentation -- I think it's crazy that I was nearly about to return these because the volume was so low and the sound quality initially was weak. But once I found some great tips on YouTube it changed everything - Sometimes taking them out of my ears and putting them into the case, I accidentally tap them and start music playing or something -- nothing serious. Bottom line, I think for most users, especially if you have a Samsung Galaxy phone, these are fantastic. They are not perfect by any means, but all around great and I am pleased with my purchase.

These were Christmas gift for our child and she's 12 dayfit perfectly in her ear. Because they came with different sizes for the ear piece, she says they're comfortable, they are definitely noise. Canceling because if you think your team or your young teen or young kids didn't listen before they definitely aint gonna listen to you now because she can't hear a word I'm saying with these things in her ears. So the noise-canceling is one point love them the purple is so pretty. I love the fact that you can get these different colors. The cases are awesome. She actually likes these better than the other name brand that we had owned previously they charge. So fast and they keep a charge for a long. of time. These are definite plus 4 our household. As my kid travels for sports ten out of ten

The Samsung Galaxy Buds2 are wireless earbuds that promise an exceptional listening experience. They come in four vibrant colors: Graphite, Lavender, Olive, and White. The compact design makes them comfortable to wear for extended periods, and they fit snugly in your ears without any discomfort. The audio quality of the Buds2 is excellent, with deep, rich bass and crystal-clear highs. The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) feature effectively blocks out external noise, allowing you to focus on your music or calls without any distractions. The Ambient Sound feature enables you to hear your surroundings when necessary, such as when you're in a busy area. The Buds2 also feature touch controls that make it easy to navigate through music and answer calls without needing to take out your phone. The battery life is impressive, with up to 5 hours of playback time on a single charge and up to 20 hours with the charging case. The Buds2 also support fast charging, with just 5 minutes of charging providing up to an hour of playback time. One drawback of the Buds2 is the lack of wireless charging capability, which is available on some other earbud models. Some users also reported that the fit was not ideal for their ear shape, leading to discomfort after extended use. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Buds2 are an excellent choice for those looking for wireless earbuds with great audio quality, reliable noise cancellation, and a long battery life. The touch controls and compact design make them convenient to use, and they come in a range of attractive colors to suit your style.

When I first tried the original Galaxy Buds, they were a revelation to me because they were the first true wireless earbuds I ever had. I have since owned and used different over the ear noise cancelling headphones, and true wireless earbuds with noise cancelling. However, I still found myself very excited to try out the new Galaxy Buds+ and so far here are my thoughts: WHAT THESE DO WELL: - The portability and ease of use remain the greatest quality of the Galaxy Buds line. The Buds+ case is so small that they can easily go in your pocket or throw them in your bag without being too bulky. After the initial set up (which is quick), all I had to do is flip open the case and they popped up on my Galaxy S10+ which was nice. - The design of the Buds+ themselves are once again discrete and out of the way. Everything is self-contained with nothing that sticks out away from the Bud and I think that is the way these true earbuds should be designed to look! - Another thing these maintain are the Wireless charging and USB-C charging interface. Both are very forward thinking and make it easy to charge them with the rest of your USB-C products. - The sound is really a great step up for the Buds+ headphones! You can tell there is better clarity and deeper bass than the original Buds. Overall I am very impressed with the audio immersion these supply while being in a such a small package. - Lastly, the Buds+ are excellent workout headphones! Seriously they never pop out no matter if I’m running, walking, at the gym, or playing sports. Really they work well in any environment. WHAT THESE ARE MISSING: - The biggest feature the Buds+ are missing are Active Noise Cancelling (ANC). I thought for sure Samsung would add this feature to the Buds+ given that other companies have done with same with their true wireless earbuds but I understand that Samsung wanted to maintain the small design and improve battery life in exchange for no ANC. - That being said, I compared the Buds+ to more expensive true wireless earbuds with ANC and you can definitely tell the difference in the two. However, in my opinion as of early 2020, ANC in true wireless earbuds are nothing compared to that of ANC in over the ear style headphones. Sure it creates a vacuum affect but when you are not playing music it does not drown out sound that much. - Other than that, these headphones really have everything you would want in a pair of true wireless earbuds. GALAXY BUDS VS GALAXY BUDS+ - The main question I suspect people will have are: why would I buy these over the original Galaxy Buds? Yes, the two devices largely look the same besides some minor cosmetic changes. Still, there are four main reasons why you should choose these over the original Buds: Better Sound Quality, insane battery life, improved calls, and Apple Compatibility. - As stated above, the sound is a much needed improvement to the original Buds. I used the Buds for their portability and ease of use, knowing the sound was just fine. Now I will use the Buds+ knowing that they can perform so much better and will be that much more enjoyable to use. - The battery life is not even a competition. The Buds+ have 11 hours of listening on one charge plus the case provides an additional full charge meaning its 22 hours total. The Original Buds had 6 hours per charge and 13 hours with the case. - The Buds+ also have 3 total microphones compared to the Buds 2 microphones. I have definitely noticed better call quality while using these which are a huge plus for me because I love using the Buds+ for calls. - Lastly, Samsung released an Apple iOS app for the Buds+ which make them much more useful when connecting them to an Apple device. That might not be super useful to some of you, but I think it's always better to have more compatibility than less. BOTTOM LINE: - After a week or month of using the Galaxy Buds+ I believe they will quickly become your go to earbuds. Sure you may get better sound out of more expensive headphones or noise cancelling earbuds, but you will not get the do it all utility of the Buds+ at this price point anywhere else. They sound great, have nice call quality, are simple to use, will last forever, and can be used anywhere you need to use headphones. The Buds+ will once again be the only headphones I use everyday and I think it will be for you too.

The idea of spending over $100 on earbuds doesn't sit easy with some people, and even I was hesitant before purchasing the Galaxy Buds+. When my 15-year-old Sony wired earbuds broke, I did quite a bit of research to see if jumping on the wireless earbuds trend would be worth it, and to figure out which wireless buds to get if so. I'm glad I was able to get the Galaxy Buds+ when they were on sale at the deepest discount they had ever been to date. They sound great, they're easy to use, they fit nicely, they're fairly customizable, and the battery life is excellent. The idea of customizing the sound is maybe a little overhyped in some reviews/articles about the Samsung Galaxy Buds+. You can certainly change the sound settings in the Galaxy Wearable app - and you definitely should change from the default setting, but you're choosing presets rather than doing your own tuning. I'm fine with having presets, but if you're an all-out audiophile and expecting to be presented with a bunch of switches and sliders for full-blown customizability, you won't find that. Normal is the default setting, and it's okay, but I've found Dynamic to be the best. Clear is alright, better than Normal, but still not as good as Dynamic. The Bass Boost setting technically does boost the bass just slightly, but it also makes things kind of muddy - heck, muffled really, it's actually on the quiet side. Don't bother with Bass Boost. Set the buds to Dynamic - that's the way to go! The sound is great when listening to music (of all sorts of genres) and when on conference calls. There are a lot of wireless earbuds out there at a variety of price points, and of course they all sound different. Everything I read said that the Galaxy Buds+ are the best for calls, and these are really quite good on calls. People's voices are clear, the sound is detailed and accurate, there's no hissing or static. As for the quality of the mics, others had no trouble at all understanding me. I sounded loud and clear. There's also an ambient sound feature that's kind of interesting to experiment with. Even with the different levels of ambient sound enabled, things are clear. Outside noises can be sort of digital sounding in moments which are otherwise silent, but still clear, compared to using ambient sound while listening to music. Touch controls are customizable and very nice, though if you touch the buds in just the right way while adjusting the fit, you might end up changing the volume or pausing/playing audio. Using the earbuds with multiple devices is rather easy. It's really pair and play. You don't need to do any complicated procedures with turning the buds off or holding any buttons down and waiting for certain notifications every single time. Pairing to something other than your phone (like a Windows laptop), you do have to press and hold the touchpads on both buds and anticipate eventual beeps, then you'll see it in the list of Bluetooth devices to connect to. But after pairing, it's so easy to switch between my laptop and my phone. The battery life is as good as described. It's incredible. They can keep going for hours. After a rather busy 9-hour work day with lots of calls and some occasional music, toggling between my laptop and my phone, there was still 59% battery (that's not nine straight hours of earbud use, but probably a spread-out total of around 5 or 6 hours). The charging case is the same size as a Matchbox car. There's nothing wrong with the case, no bulkiness or difficulty of operability. You get a light outside to see the battery status of the case, and you get a light inside to see the battery status of the earbuds. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Buds+ are great. They sound really good, they're easy to use on different devices, and the battery lasts for a long time. There might be a lot of buds out there that sound alright while listening to music, but the call quality sets these apart from the rest. Music is good, calls are good, the Galaxy Buds+ will not disappoint!

The sound is perfect. Essentially the same quality as my SteelSeries Arctis Pro, which is considerably more expensive than this, and a headset. The connection works great. Auto stops playback when you take them out of the ear, and ive only had maybe 1 or 2 cut-outs ever in my daily use. They fit great in the ear. Multiple tips you can use, and very snug. They wont fall out, even during running or heavy workouts. Sometimes ill sleep with them on and theyll fall out, but I do toss and turn, so YMMV. The battery is excellent - lasts all night, and most of the day. You can also bring the case with you and it will last 20ish hours, it will hold a charge. The active noise cancelling, as well as the ambient sound boost work good. But i havent used them much, because even with the ambient boost i cant clearly hear when people are talking to me. Both modes will also wreck battery life - a reduction by half or so. The in-app controls work alright and arent frustrating, I only wish it held the EQ setting + ANC setting on an onboard memory or something for when you use it on a non-samsung device, other than that; cant complain. Great for the price, would recommend any day.

Good quality sound and fitment, batteries seem to last longer than my last pair, and no issues w/ connectivity. A step up from the last gen galaxy buds. Ambient sound is the best while listening, so you can stay alert to your surroundings.

First I love the color, I got these earbuds because trying to disconnect my Galaxy Buds+ from my iPhone 12 to my Note 20 Ultra whenever I get a phone call was becoming a nuisance. The Buds 2 sound freaking amazing. I read reviews about some people getting ear infections from these headphones and other ear issues. I experienced something totally different. I understand why people feel the Buds+ are better, that's due to the wing tip and I agree. When I paired the Buds 2 with my Note 20 Ultra I was so pleased because I'm very particular on how I want my music to sound. When I took them out I noticed an ear popping feeling like when you're on a plane and I immediately got a headache. I can honestly agree that the ANC really works. I'm guessing the ANC is the reason for the reaction I experienced. I really wanted to like these but I realize after several tries and several headaches, for me the Buds 2 cannot be used with my Note 20 Ultra. BUT, there's a bright side. Although you can't use the Galaxy wearable app on the iPhone for the Buds 2 they work just fine and I don't get any airplane ear pop and no headaches. Because of the sound and the color I decided to keep them. Like some others I too wish there was a wing tip. I've been switching up the ear bud tips to try to get the best fit. And for those who say they didn't get any extra tips, they are in a tiny box wrapped up in the charging cord. I'll show some photos.

This is my second set of Galaxy Buds 2. They fit nicely and have rich sound. The noise cancelling mode is cool, with the the additional option of turning on ambient sound when you need it. The sound experience is very good overall.

Stay in my ears and sound decent. Perfect for working on the golf course. Being able to control the noise canceling and change songs just with a touch is great. Battery life is plenty and the case fits snug in the small coin pocket of my pants. Also shows Battery life on my phone of the case and earbuds. The sound quality isnt crazy good but fine for me. A little expensive in my opinion but it seems like all wireless earbuds are.

PROs -Great connection with Samsung Devices, including switching between them automatically (can turn off this feature in the Samsung Settings App if, for example, your kid's tablets are connected to your Samsung Profile. -Audio Quality for average users (unsure of Audiophile desires, but I love mine) -Battery, especially wireless charging and LED indicators to know when charging CONS -Occasional Fit problems. I think I have average male ears and am using standard medium tips. Occasionally have to adjust, especially if talking. If I focus on twisting them in when I put them in my wear, they pass the shake test, but if these are going to be running exclusive headphones, consider something with a hook. Case is a nice small square that charges wirelessly. I get plenty of charge out of it, and with wireless charging from Amazon, I can just drop it on the pad at the end of the day. I once forgot that I'd been wearing them through a day of air travel for about 6 hours when it started to warn me that it was starting to run low on battery, but I had been pretty comfortable up to that point. It has some extra features you can enable with the Galaxy Wearable app that are pretty useful like changing hear through or noise canceling (ANC works great, Hear-Through is enough to know someone is trying to get your attention at least, if not making conversations easy). A few complaints, the pause/play sometimes gets funky with the tap and I need to pull my phone out, but never when I haven't been messing with a bunch of apps. Running with these for your music wont disappoint and I think the hear-through is great for the safety part of running outside or in a gym where you don't want to completely shut everything out.

Great update and yes update to the whole Galaxy Buds lineup - do they sound as good as the Buds Pro? No! But they are 90% there. The comfort, fitment, features it's there. I'm not worried about the Buds firmware or updates as Samsung is very good at future firmware updates and fixes. Oh, and I set these up on a Galaxy Tab, updated the firmware ... then I connected them to my iPhone 12 Pro as this is what I use. Yes an iOS user who enjoys other earbuds other than the Walled Garden of Apple. I am enjoying these so far and will update after some use with them.

It is a compact, easy set up & ready to go stylish earbuds. The noise cancelling is so good that sometimes while mixing or listening to music I can't hear anything (including my wife) & it drives her mad lolol. That should tell you how good the noise cancelling is as a stamp of approval.

This headphones are great. Sound. Feel. Stay in ear. The only problem I have is the battery life. I’ve had 2 pairs. Both left earbud went bad after a year and a half. For the price they should last waayyyyyyy longer.

Excellent earbuds work great with my Samsung A14 phones. Stays charged for a long time period and I can wear one at a time for longer periods. Excellent quality for the price, I only wish I could get a bigger discount. I would love it if it was on sale again for $99.

Had the Gear Icon X and then the OG Buds, I got the Pro but had to return it and get this one instead. Good fit and smaller lifhter great sound decent ANC.

I have trouble with a lot of earbuds not fitting my smaller ears, whether the issue is that they fall out of my ears and/or hurt them. These do neither!! They do fill all the limited space my ears give them for sure, but I really expected they might be way too bulky and uncomfortable so this is a very happy surprise. They work great with my Samsung devices of course, the only sad part of this story is that my MacBook hates them and balances all the sound to the left bud, but that's completely Apple's fault. And this is coming from someone who's exclusively used the first gen AirPods for years because they were the only thing that fit my ears comfortably. Usually anything that forms a seal in the ear canal doesn't work for me. But these get an 11/10 for Samsung :)

I love these earphones they sound really good! Cons: The volume dosent get really loud but that's okay, They seem to have problems with Microsoft teams but that must be an individual problem. Pros: they connect when you open the case. You can use each ear piece individually.

Very good quality for the price! I haven't had a problem with them yet and use them everyday. Very user friendly and fast connecting. Good sound quality and pretty comfortable. And a nice snap when you close the case haha.

These have a great transparency mode that’s adjustable, to we’re if you turn it up it like amplifies every thing around you which is perfect if you have kids and you want to be able to hear them , the anc is ok not bad . Can’t really comment on the battery life being I don’t use ear buds so long to we’re they have died , now when I call people they say I sound like I’m far away , but they sound clear . The audio quality is really good for a pair of 130 dollar headphones good separation very good buy . And these maybe the most comfortable ear buds I’ve ever tried there so light you forget there in your ear . Now if you have and iPhone you have to kinda set them up on and android devices to you get them they way you want them but they connect fine . I bought these and a pair of the jabra pros the jabra definitely sound better and have buttons instead of touch sensitive but the anc sucks on them but it’s clear for people you are calling and the transparency mode is not quite as good and the buds 2 are more comfortable so you kinda have to pick your poison but there app is great very adjustable and they are easy to connect on apple or android
