Not what you're used to
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've seen a lot of negative reviews on other sites, and I can pretty much guarantee that such reviews are hasty. I was about to be one of those to leave a bad review within the first hour of wearing these, but I decided to bear with it for a day and a half and do some of my own experimentation. I'll try to give some info not shown in other reviews. It does take a bit to get used to, especially if you've never used open air earbuds. Do some experimentation with the fit so you'll be comfortable. It does come with two sets of different sized earmoulds. These are definitely more comfortable than in-ears for me. I don't really like the passive seal of in-ears since my eardrums are sensitive to pressure changes when I take them on and off, and I like to hear my environment when needed, hands-free. I mainly bought these because I like to lie down on my side when consuming media. Headphones and in-ears protrude outward too much and push into my ears; not so much with these. Sound quality depends heavily on how close the speakers are in your ear canal, so adjust as needed. You're not gonna get audiophile-level sound with these, but these deliver sound with way more quality than what you would expect from a product like this. Effective ANC is especially hard to pull off with open air earphones, but these do alright if you adjust them properly. 4 stars because these are a bit pricey, but what can I expect from a product first of its kind? TL;DR - Experiment with the fit of these, or they won't please.

Highly Recommended
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These kidney bean shaped earbuds fit comfortably & securely in the ears, went for a 3 mile run outdoors & didn't have to adjust them once. Since there is no rubber to completely seal off your ear, you may hear slight ambient sounds from your surroundings but luckily these earbuds have deep bass & I can immerse myself in the Dolby Atmos on Samsung Galaxy phone to almost completely drown out the exterior noise. Make sure you switch the touch controls to volume up & down on the Samsung Wearable app, when I first used them the volume was disappointingly low but perfectly loud now..

Magic beans without the beanstalk
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not perfect but still well worth it. Never found a set of earbuds that fit and stay put the way these do, they don't look like they would but they do. You can play around with positioning and get a good fit and sound. Sound quality is very good, it's noise cancelling isn't as strong as some others but I prefer the semi open design it's not stuffy/blocked feeling. Get occasional dropouts but not too often. For the unique form factor the compromise is worth it to me.

KEEP THE BEAN SHAPE
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.second pair, the bean shape is a cut above compared to any other brand. Super comfy and good battery life. I hate the designs that go into my ear canal. So this literally perfect. Apple followers try to mock them but they are beyond practical. I Work all day with them in my ear listening to Spotify or listening in on twitch streams. They are great and hope that Samsung doesn't do away with their shape. even if they are considered "older" models I feel that they are perfect and can last at least two years of daily use. you wont regret this purchase.

Superb!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a pair of air pods prior to these. I love these eqr buds SO much! The fit is amazing. The sound is great as well. I feel like i am being submerged in the sounds. This is the first pair of ear buds that fit my ears. No need to mess with the different size pieces, just pup these in and they hold. I have recommended these to many people who now have a pair of their own after trying mine out.

Fantastic!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely LOVE the new Buds Live. Samsung did a fantastic job. I have a pair of AirPod Pros, and a pair of Amazon Alexa Buds (which are surprisingly awesome) and the new Samsung "Beans" are my new fave. So comfortable to wear! A terrific and ingenious design, it feels like I'm not wearing any earbuds at all. True all day wear ability. Sound is above average. The companion app is full featured and well done. Five Stars! These buds are winners.

The best wireless earbuds on the market.. for some
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Samsung Galaxy Buds Live are possibly the best wireless earbuds I've ever used. The sound quality is wonderful for an in ear device, the mic picks up audio really well and even on a windy day, it filters out annoying background noises pretty well. If you've used any Galaxy Buds before these, the sound very similar. However they are a bit bassier, which depending on your musical tastes may or may not be beneficial. These earbuds require a pretty up to date phone to use (the day I bought them they refused to pair until I completed the software update issued the night prior). The Galaxy Wearable app is a must have for users of these earbuds, offering sound profiles, updates and training for the capacitive sensors which I found myself unable to consistently press for the first few days of use. However with practice I can now control my media playback with ease. The final feature of note with the app is the ability to turn on Active Noise Canceling, which after using these earbuds has become a must have feature. Working in a loud kitchen with industrial fans and putting in these earbuds is like magic. The roar of machinery fades with a pleasant tone, and suddenly voices are clearer, and it sounds like I'm in a room with a much smaller tower fan. However, no Buds Live review would be complete without mentioning the fit. The Buds Live rest in your ears with little adjustability. Those with smaller ears will likely find these earbuds uncomfortable, and those without will find them most comfortable if they are just put in and forgetten.

Best earbuds for the money.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 2nd pair of these earbuds. I had the first pair from release in 2021. By far the best earbuds i have owned or tried. I wear these nearly 24 hours a day swapping ear to ear throughout the day. Battery life is fantastic in both the individual earbuds and the case for recharging. I understand they may not be the most comfortable for everyone because of the design but if they do fit your ears they are the best. Sound quality from speaker is pretty good not a ton of bass but still good. Microphone is also great.

Best earbuds for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these. These are my 2nd pair. I accidently dropped first case in the parking lot and lost one of the earbuds to my first pair. Love how these fit in my ears and the sound quality is fantastic. I did have to learn something's with them. Like you can go into the app and fix it to where you aren't accidently turning them off while you workout. Also the battery life on these is amazing since the case charges them after each use. I just charge the case every other week if that.

Deep bass. Comfortable fit.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Deep bass. Comfortable fit. The signal is pretty finicky. The sound will briefly glitch frequently but only lasts for a moment. Trouble is I listen to a lot of creepy stories. So when narrator's voice distorts randomly, it freaks me out for a second. haha. Best feature: I do not get ear-fatigue no matter how many hours I wear them.

Best ear buds I've owned
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 4th pair of the Samsung buds. I started with the Galaxy Buds+ and loved them until I lost them. Then moved on to the Buds Pro and Buds 2 Pro and only had them a few weeks before returning them because of the horrible fit and them constantly falling out of my ears, even just walking. I decided to give Samsung buds one more chance and I'm glad I did. These buds fit some comfortably in the ear and are much more discrete than other models. Definitely worth getting.

Great buds! Amazing sound and features.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tryed several earbuds before to get this ones. I loved it! Amazing sound, great features and comfortable fit. The app is seamless to use and full of features that improves the daily use. I use this in my everyday day, 10 hr average and no complaints. ANC is not what you expect but really enhance sound quality when you're in a call. Perfect for me because very often people ask me anything and i dont need to take it off or play pause.. i can heard what ever they say...even so the sound is great! Highly recommend!!

Great buy!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these earphones! I have the first samsung buds still which these buds live have for sure better sound quality. I really enjoy the bass sound these earphones provide. Also I heard from another review that these earphones don't fit your ear correctly or fall out. I myself have no issues with them falling out of my ear. They also do not hurt my ear like the samsung buds + I have after wearing them for a few hours. Great buy for me.
