Love these buds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They aren't noise cancelling but they do drown out some of the exterior noise. The sound quality is wonderful and I love the size of the case and that it charges the buds. They hold an all day charge for the most part. I'm just learning some of the tap, double tap commands, etc. They're pretty cool. They integrate well with my Note 20 Ultra. They do hurt my ears slightly because I have small ears. I have this problem with all earbuds so it's not a design flaw. The fit is really tight. They don't fall out even if you shake your head around. Great design. Love the color. They're exactly as pictured. Kind of pricey like the phone and the watch but I love the color so I had to have them.

Amazing sound with only a few minor drawbacks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.+ Easily the best audio quality so far from Samsung's line of Galaxy Buds. Largely in part thanks to improved drivers and a new "bass duct". the bass is extremely punchy. Mileage will of course vary based on your streaming platform of choice. Lossless audio really works well here. + Open ear design, like the normal Airpods. + Unlike Airpods, these actually stay in extremely well, as they are super lightweight, and do not have a boom mic sticking out weighing them down. + Can be paired to 2 devices at once. Which is perfect if you own a phone and tablet, or even 2 phones. + The microphone for phone calls is amazing. It is one of the best I've used for it's ability to single out your voice and block out background sounds. So those you are talking to will hear you much better. - The touch controls can be a little awkward and sometimes not responsive. Though they do have some nice options however in how you can control them. I just find myself sometimes having to tap again a different way to get the results I want. It's not terrible, but compared to previous Galaxy buds, the touch controls on these are not as good. Definitely serviceable though. - The Active Noise Cancelling, which is one of the big selling points of these... This is the main reason I am giving them 4 stars instead of 5. They do have noise cancelling, yes, but since they are an open ear design, the noise cancelling is just not good. My previous Galaxy Buds, which do not have ANC actually do a better job of blocking out background noise, due to creating a seal in your ear canal with the silicone tips, and using passive noise isolation instead. To summarize, I am really pleased with this purchase. I have had them for a while now, and am extremely pleased with the overall audio quality for music and phone calls. They are also super comfortable in my ears personally. I would however not recommend them for ANC. For everything else though, yes! Buy these!

Wow, finally.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All the in ear earbud headphones keep sliding out on me because I sweat a lot. I have to keep adjusting them and it’s a frustrating. I put these buds live in and it was instant love. They didn’t move. I tried jumping jacks, running up and down the stairs, and shaking my head vigorously left and right. Sounds great, very comfortable (most comfortable headphones I have ever worn) looks sharp. Sits flush with your ear, doesn’t bulge out and doesn’t have a stick attached to it. Negatives: Very sensitive. I have a bad habit of keep touching them and I’m either pausing the music, skipping songs, or changing volumes. There is a way to change the settings, once I do and get more accustomed I’m sure this will be no problem. Also, ipx2 rating. Again I sweat a lot, I don’t know how they will hold up after many exercises. Still in the test phase. I’ll update on this at a later time.

Older beans but better then any other ones.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.10 out of 10. I have bought these 2 different times. My first pair got a bit of water on them (not water resistant in the slightest) but oh my lerd! The sound quality is absolutely unmatched for juat being little beans you put into your ears. The bass is rich and full the voice quality is amazing and the shape doesnt fatigue the ears what so ever for me at least.

Great sound but with one flaw.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These ear buds have the best sound I've heard for music, that is coming from 60 dollar buds I have. So its big step up. I listen to audio books and the sounds is there. Adjusting the EQ between Dynamic and Treble for these is fine. The software on my android "Gear Wear" works great when needed to change settings. No crashing and easy to use. They fit my ears very well. I have to use the larger rubber pieces, the fit feels better. As for the feel. I real don't notice them in my ears. It feels like somethings in there but not. I can still hear things around me alot. The ANC is like everyone else says. It cuts out the heavier But that's it. I leave it off. Now the one flaw, The Connectivity! These ear buds work great. As long as the Phone you are using is not block by ANYTHING! In my left,right or back pocket while I'm at work fine. As soon as i put my hand, box, jacket, bag, over those places they lose signal and cut out. Even sitting down. If i cover the phone to much they cut out. Tried with my Note 20, wifes S10, even my fathers LTE android phone. As soon as something kind of covers the phones bluetooth antenna they cut in and out. These could be The best earbuds now, if it was for that one flaw. I like them and plan "with a little difference in not covering my phone" keeping these.

The first wireless earbuds that fit in my ears!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been through so many wireless earbuds that seem to nearly all claim that they fit well in small ears once adjusted however they do not. This product does to me and I have very small ears. It might be the fact that the buds fit the shape of the ear canal and then once you turn them they fit snuggly in place. I had to use the smallest ear wings as they all give you 2 types- small and large. You can buy replacement wing tips and sleeves for the product but please do your research first. I ended up watching several Youtube videos in order to understand how to put them in correctly. When I first got the item and read the instructions I thought that I had put them in place correctly but they ended up scratching my inner ear for several weeks. You put the buds in your hole, shape them to the ear, and then turn. It also takes a while to get used to the controls. I wear them to work 8 hours 5 days a week. The controls can be a bit sensitive when pausing music or turning the volume (one bud will have up and the other down) so you have to press it just right. Can last 6 hours without being charged and the case itself lasts much longer. Make sure to have the Samsung wearable app so that you can control the equalizer, 360 audio, noise cancelling, find your buds feature, and which buds controls which volume. Now these buds don't completely cancel out sound but in my very loud work environment they do a pretty good job of at least minimizing it. They are super lightweight, charge fast, and contain a wonderful sound.

Comfy-Great Sound-Good Battery-Nintendo Switch
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Work pretty great and are comfy in my ears, never been a fan of the earbuds with stems in the ear canal. These just nestle into the dip of the ear for a good seal, Might want Qtips afterwards if you have earwax. When both buds are in the sound is amazing, easily connects to my phone AND Nintendo switch!! Great for wireless gaming with amazing sound. The also have really good battery life, the case has great battery life too. Would recommend getting a shell to go around the case though, the case scuffed pretty easy.

Good Overall
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome earbuds. Sound good and fit great (in my ears). I think that the sound quality is okay, the bass could be better. Wingtips are a game changer, don't even feel like they are in my ears. Audio quality sometimes cuts down for a few seconds in the beginning when connecting and playing music, but then becomes better, so minor bug.

Great Clear Sound, Confortable Fit & Bass Strong
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these Samsung Buds Live, actually bought the Buds Pro 2 then returned as its not as comfortable in the ear also its a bit pricey, the Buds Pro 2 does have more noise cancelation and probably 2 features that the Buds Live do not have. But all in all, if your the type of person that does not always listen to music all the time then this is the type of earbuds you need. Very simple with less features but packs clear sound, decent active noise cancelling, strong clear bass and a natural fitting on your ears. Plus it comes with large earbud sizes. Worth the money :)

Amazing, even with an iPhone!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these. I am forever on the look for the most comfortable earbuds for my evidently-stubborn ears. I loved the sound from the AirPods Pro, but no matter what eartips I used, they always fell out after a few minutes. Incredibly annoying. The Galaxy Buds and Buds+ were incredibly uncomfortable - though also their sound quality was pretty good (not as good as the AirPods, clearly). My wife wanted to get a pair of these Galaxy Buds Live on sale, so when she got them I tried them on and heard a few songs and was astonished at how high the sound quality is and how comfortable the rather unorthodox fit is. Regarding the fit - I was incredibly skeptical since their release as the problem with the "normal" earbuds fitting right while remaining comfortable, I figured these oddly shaped ones would not fit at all. I was absolutely incorrect. The unique shape/fit of these out the box is incredibly comfortable and secure. They do not "wiggle" they do not slip around and they certainly have not popped out. Currently I've had them in my ear for about two hours while working and not the least bit uncomfortable - nearly forgettable to be honest. The sound quality is great. Even though I'm an iPhone user, the Samsung Buds app is great and makes pairing easy. The different settings for the sound does make a great difference depending on what you like (I stick with Dynamic for the most part). The only other real benefit to these over others, aside from the AirPods, is that the case these come with is so incredibly small. I love it; I bring my buds with me everywhere in case my wife wants to spend a lot of time looking around at the department stores so that I have stuff to listen to. And these case is absolutely wonderful in it's size and functionality. The battery length is great. The ANC is not as stout as the AirPods Pro, but that is expected with the fact these do not go into the ear canal (another bonus to me in terms of comfort). That said, the reduction in outside noises is absolutely great and a welcomed addition. No complaints at all right now.

perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.However I love how I can hear everything around me with the headphones if I lover the volume, I can talk to people without turning off the music or taking them out. And exactly as you said the ears need to get used to them. When I started wearing them I had some pain after a few hours of using them but now they are like a part of me. I don't feel them inside my ear and they NEVER fall out. I can jog, cycle, jump, run and they wont fall out. 10/10 for me

Excellent little beans
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly I love these, they're comfortable, they sound solid with music and podcasts, they pick up my voice well for phone calls, and I don't feel like they're going to fall out. Occasionally if I'm wearing them all day I get mildly uncomfortable, but it's definitely not every time, and it goes away quickly/can be avoided altogether if I occasionally alternate between listening with one earbud at a time.

I like so far
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I actually like these ear buds. They are pretty comfortable for an ear bud... they definitely are noise canceling and have a good battery life. I'm enjoying these so far and i was the skeptical one bc i don't like things in my ear lol but these i can tolerate. The only con and it may be a user error but i can't connect them to my laptop. Like when I'm on a zoom call. I don't like that, at all. But i could be doing something wrong so i won't knock them for that.
