Do not get if you have iPhone
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These buds sound great but if you're using an iphone everyone you call will hate you. Anytime I make a call it's either "you sound like you're breaking up", "you're cutting in and out", or "sounds like you're under water" Music sounds great for the $$ but will intermittently cut out like you're out of range of your phone which isn't too much a problem.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendDo not buy! Common defects
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wore them for 1 day and out of the box the left bud had some static during the active noise canceling mode. Kept wearing them and after a few hours the left earbud suddenly screeched with feedback that actually hurt my ear. Never dropped, no sweat, no chance for dust. Gave them another shot on day two and learned the mic doesn't work. People say I sound muffled and far away. It cuts in and out. Thought I just got a bad pair but then looked online to see this is an extremely common issue. Do not buy! Fastest return I've ever made. I loved the galaxy buds+ so this is a huge disappointment.

Removed wireless charging to bring back the fin.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Finally the fins return from the Buds+, but Samsung removes wireless charging for the case that's been on every variation of the iconic clam shell case. Samsung gave a little and took a lot. Smh

I was expecting more
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was disappointed with these headphones, which are designed for dual-earbud use. Personally, I prefer using a single earbud, but this setup falls short. It blocks 50% of your hearing, requiring you to remove them to hear clearly. During exercise, they tend to slip out due to sweat. Unfortunately, they didn't live up to my expectations, which were shaped by my experience with Beats and Apple phones, where I could receive notifications and caller ID announcements.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot Bose….but you shouldn’t expect them to be
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These air pods are alright. Nothing really stands out about them good or bad…I use them during work outs and the sound quality is what I would expect from a cheaper pair of pods which is what these are.

11th samsung pair. And Mic still sucks!!!!!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.the microphone is the worst. Ive been using samsung headphones for many years. Ive gone through 11 wireless ear buds. Never once has someone said "I hear you fine". I only get complaints and I am forced to remove the buds from my ears. Im effin done with samsung headphones. Im on my phone for 15 hrs a day. Im a doorman in manhattan and i do nothing for a living other than use my phone. Save your time and money. The pros that are 200+ $ isnt any better. I had a few of those too. Because the audio microphone is so bad. I purchased the cheaper ones. All i did was waste more money. The only thing this is good for is to listen. Samsung just doesnt and cant ever get it right. Meanwhile my cousin is using these beats for his android and i hear him perfectly. And always goes in and out of connections.

Horrible earphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not buy. I purchase 3 sets, one for myself and the others gave as gifts. All 3 sets the left earphone stopped charging in less than 6 months. Absolutely a total waste of money :(
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWack headphone
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could give these headphones a negative stars, I would. The noise cancellation part isn’t canceling anything but my heavy breathing. I understand it’s Samsung but don’t say it’s compatible to IPhone if it doesn’t let you end calls or skip music. I gave it the opportunity to redeem itself everyday and it was trash. I highly don’t recommend and keep your money.
