There Good. Only for the right people though.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They sounded pretty okay reminded me of AirPods but it could have sounded better if the buds app worked. I’m not sure if it’s cause I’m on iPhone or I got unlucky but the app wouldn’t work. It seem to work for other people so maybe I did get unlucky. I recommend these for Android users because it seems to work better with Android.

||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These were nice fir a little while but didnt last long. I bought in August and they started acting up probably about May. Going to replace soon (August). On calls, the microphone goes out after about 8 minutes. I can hear the person perfectly, but they can't hear me.

Not Good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received the Galaxy buds FE on 5/31 and after 7 days the left side earbud has been acting up giving out static noise. On phone calls, everyone says i sound far away and when i put the left earbud in the case and only use the right, people can hear me just fine. As of 6/15 they are no longer returnable to best buy so i went back to using my Blue Galaxy Buds+ which still work just fine and i dont have issues when taking phone calls.

Good buds
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good pair of buds. The down side to it all is the sound quality and ambient noise canceling feature. Also the buds easily falls off my small ears.

Sound quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you're looking for clear sound, long-lasting battery life, and a comfortable design, Samsung earbuds deliver. The audio is clear and balanced, with deep, non-saturating bass and well-defined highs. They're perfect for listening to music, podcasts, or watching videos without missing a beat. The Bluetooth connection is fast and stable, even when you're slightly away from your phone. They're compatible with Samsung devices, but they also work perfectly on Android and iOS. As for battery life, they offer up to 5-8 hours of continuous use (depending on the model), and the charging case adds several extra charges. They also feature fast charging, so a few minutes connected gives you hours of playback. The design is lightweight and ergonomic, they fit well in the ear and don't fall out easily, even during exercise. Some models include water and sweat resistance, making them ideal for workouts. Strengths: Clear, quality sound Long-lasting battery life Stable and fast connection

Finally, A Galaxy Bud That Fits!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've tried all the previous Galaxy Bud offerings, and none of them fit my ear properly, as they'd always just fall out, even with the large tips. In fact, the only earbuds that have ever fit me well, of all the many I've tired, are the Master & Dynamic MW08 Sport, and those are $400 earbuds. All that to say, that for a mere 70 bucks (on sale), the Buds FE are THE perfect fit, for me anyways. I can wear them all day at work (8 hours), and they never budge, nor have I had to adjust them even once. While they don't have the same soundstage or overall sound quality as the MW08 Sport (nor would I expect them, given the price difference), they DO sound great, even better than some of the $100-$200 earbuds I've tried over the years. If you're on a Samsung device, as I am (S22 Ultra), you get the benefit of the Samsung Seamless Codec being the default codec choice, which previously was only available to the Buds 2 Pro. It's a notch above the more common Samsung Scalable Codec, as it can also decode higher quality audio. Comfort wise, they feel fine in ear, though after about 4-5 hours it can cause some discomfort, at least for me anyways, though nothing bad enough to take them out of my ears. The case is plenty small to fit in a pocket with ease, so no worries there. Took about 2 hours to fully charge the case, with the Buds in it. The lack of wireless charging is a non-factor to me, as I never use that anyways, though I can understand to some it might be an issue. The noise cancelling I can't speak on, as I have not tried it myself. The app says both buds need to be in your ear in order to utilize it though, can't just do one like some other brands can. At 70 bucks though on sale, I'll make the bold claim that you won't find a better earbud at or near that price point. Even for 100 bucks, they'd still be well worth it!

Good
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been using my Samsung earbuds for a while now, and they’re excellent! The sound quality is clear, with deep bass and crisp highs, making music and calls sound great. The noise cancellation works well, blocking out background noise when I need to focus. They’re also super comfortable and stay in place, even during workouts. The battery life is impressive, and the fast charging feature is a big plus. Connectivity with my Samsung phone is seamless, but they still work well with other devices.

Great first earpods
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been reluctant to try earpods because I was worried about a number of things--them not fitting comfortably, falling out of my ears and getting lost, connectivity issues, etc. A friend suggested I try these as my first pair because they're affordable and I have a Samsung galaxy phone. I'm a total convert. I've had zero connectivity issues, between the earbuds and the case I've never had issues with running out of battery, and they stay in my ears without problems. I ended up not using the "wings," but they were easy to remove and they stay in my ears without the wings.

They fit! ANC works! Good price! Would buy again!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dang they're really good for 80 bucks!! (Sorry not sorry about the long review, just skip to the end for the bottom line.) I'm usually more of a top(ish) of the line buyer, but let's face it - I like champagne but I'm on more of a beer budget. I really liked the Samsung something buds that came in dark blue and were sort of triangularly shaped (from like maybe 4 years ago?). They gave out after 3 years and then I washed them so...(And don't get me started on those stupid little slippery shiny beans that Samsung came up with next.) Since I have owned a few Pixels by now, I was excited to grab the latest Google buds. They sound great, but want to know where these designers are getting their degrees from, or maybe they slept through their ergonomy lectures, because I don't know whose ears their recent models of various brands fit without falling out. It's like are they even beta testing their stuff on real ears??? Because why would you sell buds without fins? (It's not just Google. Apparently it is the latest rage.) My ear canals are too petite to shove them in brute force, so it was like trying to keep marbles in my ears from falling out.) So after my Google buds remained a fail no matter how I hacked them, I felt foolish spending a ton of money so I got these FE ones as a replacement when the price dropped. And I am super impressed. They securely stay in my ears on the job site, are comfortable for hours, the ANC makes my day so peaceful (It cuts down machine noise, and I can't hear people talking at all!), and they sound really good with both speech and music!!! Like really clear and rich, not thin or tinny or too bassy or muddled. Way, way better than I expected for 80 bucks!! (Yeah, there's that quibble when the ANC picks up particular noises in a particular way (I can't even remember now, it doesn't really happen that often, maybe once a week in several hours daily use, like lets say I scrape something inside a closet or something), then it suddenly amplifies that sound for a couple seconds. It's not horrible, just a little startling. Would I buy them again? 100% absolutely, 10 thumbs up.

Good Earbuds, Great Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While these earbuds may not be the best, they certainly aren't the worst. For the price, these earbuds are great, with good sound, connectivity, and battery life. I bought these as a gift for a family member of mine; she took them on a plane with her to travel, and according to her, the noise cancelling worked great. Pros: -Good quality noise cancelling and transparency mode -Great price -Good fit and multiple replacement ear cushions provided -Good quality audio (excellent for the price) -Connects well (to iPhone; unfortunately, there is no app available on the app store for them) Cons: -No auto-pause feature (in-ear detection) where the media played automatically stops when an earbud is removed -Can become uncomfortable to wear after a few hours of use -Audio can slightly be heard from people nearby (but only if the sound is up high)

A modernized blast from the past
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just like the title says it's a blast from the past has this device brings everything that Samsung could cram into it to keep the price down into a modern earbud with the design from a fan favor version of the Galaxy buds. What you get here is a familiar yet refreshing taking my opinion on a more classic version of the Galaxy buds brought up to Modern standards and despite missing some features that a lot of people would consider essential like wireless charging these do not slouch in the other departments. These little Fan Edition earbuds are base cannons and performance champions for what they are and from Samsung who tends to usually price their accessories and stuff like earbuds and watches relatively high it's nice seeing something in the $100 range that feels premium. Thanks to the week tips as well these are nice and comfortable to wear and the built-in noise canceling is also very good. I do wish Samsung would bring back the Pod design for their earbuds rather than sticking with the stem but it's nice to have these as an option over the more expensive alternatives from the brand. Audio qualities incredible and latency is very minimal and watching videos and playing mobile games. I personally went for the Black version of the earbuds as I thought they looked a little bit classy inside of a white clam shell and they do. The bat texture on them is also very nice as it's easy to clean

Worth the price
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had these earbuds iver a year now and im still very happy with them. The sound is clear, with multiple modes to listen. The noise cancelling works great but i think the "be aware" setting could be better. I dont use it though so its not a problem for me personally. My only major qualm is that when you connect them to SmartThings app, it doesnt do a great job of tracking individual earbuds. Itll often show them as being in the same place they were 30+ minutes ago rather than updating as they move. I havent noticed any drop in quality, they auto connect quickly and easily, and you can customize the click settings so whatever tap you do links to whichever feature (ex: 2 taps for volume up-1 tap for volume down, 3 taps for skip, etc) I get about 8 hours of life from them but they charge quite quickly in the case. The case takes a bit of time to charge but I only need to plug it in every 2 days or so. I do use these for several hours daily though.

Clear sound
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought when i lost the case for my old ear buds. These are much better. Fit comfortably. The touch sensors work great when I am running. Clear sound with music or phone calls and noise counseling is phenomenal. They connect easily, charge fast, and last a long time.

Great, in my experience
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best when paired with a Samsung phone, for which I have. Good customizability of what pressing/tapping the buttons in specific ways does (with the options to disable them) and the fit test is helpful. The pre-set equalizer settings is a nice touch, Dynamic being my favorite and my preferred, which works well for heavier/louder music like metal music in case any heavy music listeners out there are curious. Gotta love the easy switching between Noise-cancelling mode and Ambient mode, but if you wanted it on "normal" mode/default, you will have to go into the earbuds settings on your phone and simply tap. It's all easy and simple to do. The battery lasts a good amount of time, and a good thing to do when you know you wont use it for any period of time is to pop them in and keep them charged however little it may be.

Good pair of buds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Generally prefer something that hooks on the ear, but couldn't find a pair with good reviews and an affordable price so decided to try these. Primarily use them for listening to music while working out and at work. Haven't tried them for phone calls. Pros: - Fit pretty good in your ear and are comfortable - great sound and base - affordable - good battery life on the buds. The case battery is ok. - pairs with samsung devices seamlessly - noise cancelling and ambient sound functions work well, almost too well. Cons - the automatic pairing with other samsung devices every time upon opening the case is a little annoying. - connection range is good not great. I've had other ear pieces where I can wonder away a good distance without the connection getting choppy - would not recommend running/walking alone with the ambient sound or noise cancelling on. Tried both out in the gym and I could almost hear nothing but the faint sounds of weight clanging with either on and it made me wonder about safety.

Incredible Sound and Comfort – Highly Recommend th
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE Wireless from Best Buy, and I am beyond impressed with them! The sound quality is absolutely fantastic – crisp highs, rich mids, and punchy bass. Whether I’m listening to music, podcasts, or taking calls, the audio is crystal clear. The fit is super comfortable too, with the different ear tip sizes ensuring a secure and snug fit for all-day wear. I’ve had no issues with them slipping out, even during workouts. The noise cancellation is also impressive, helping me zone out and focus on whatever I’m doing. Battery life is solid as well. I can easily get through an entire day of use without needing to recharge. Plus, the case is compact and makes it easy to carry around. Overall, these buds offer amazing value for the price. If you’re looking for a high-quality wireless earbud with excellent sound, comfort, and battery life, the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE are definitely worth it!
