Stylish, comfortable, and great for long wear or workouts. Connects easily and automatically with any device, and I even use it for gaming on ps5 with bluetooth dongle.

GREAT EARBUDS!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are great if they fit your ears. For me, they're the perfect size. I like these because I can listen to one earbud at a time (mostly to news), then switch to the other one when the battery runs out. Or when in bed I can wear only one earbud in whichever side of my head is facing up (I'm a side sleeper).

You Won't Be Disappointed!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased Samsung Galaxy Buds Live TWS earbuds for my mom who has trouble with traditional earbuds hurting her ear holes, and doesn't like big cumbersome over-ears. And she can't be happier. The fit was perfect for her right out of the box (I tried them too, and fit well), also she thinks they are spectacular to look at with that blue. I tend to agree, except for the the shape when looking at them on table. But when in ear, they look awesome!! Sound quality is an A-, (I have the Buds Pro and those are an A+). Bass is full, but a little short on detail, and highs can come through a little shrill and thin. But the overall sound that comes out of these things is pretty amazing when you consider there is no seal with your ear holes. Your basically just blasting music at your ears, kind of like when we used to carry a boombox on your shoulder aimed at your head. I know I' old too, that was back in the late 80s, early 90s, but same concept.) Never thought of carrying one on each shoulder, WOW. Sorry, got distracted. Anyways, for two speakers the size of my finger tip, with know seal in your ears, THESE ARE AMAZING!! The only better way, is in ear. She also says these are the first headphones she can lay on her side with. Noise cancelling is as good as it can be without a seal. All in all if you have trouble or discomfort with traditional earbuds, then you can't do any better than these.

Comfort is King
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds really surprised with comfort and sound quality. For an open ear design the sound is quite good. The bass is slightly better than galaxy buds plus even without having that seal. The comfort is great. My work allows for us to wear earbuds so wearing these for long periods of time is easier than it was with my galaxy buds plus. Only negative thing I can say is that the ambient mode isn't really helpful here. I still sound like a robot in my head. You really don't need it on at all since these are open ear design. All the outside noise is piped in. There is Active noise cancelling but it is very minimal. Cancels out low frequency but high frequency noises are still very much there. Overall if you these are great. If you are ok with outside noise coming in then these are great. It is perfect for me because I need to hear my surrounding while working.

Best Buds
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My last pair of buds were Skullcandy and people always complained about not being able to hear me clearly due to background noise. I love the active noise canceling feature. People can actually hear me now! I also love the touch features and the ability to disable them when I need to. This buds fit comfortably and feel great in my ears.

Ear buds that'll blow you away!
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great range of high end and low end sounds. Unbeatable noise cancelling as well as many features built into the Samsung Wearables app. Highly recommend. Holds a good charge, and charges quick to ensure you have music or can take a phone call on-the-go.

Finally not painful headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have issues with headphones making my ears hurt after a short period of time. Over ear, on ear, and in ear. They all hurt. I was skeptical about whether these would work, but I'm so happy i purchased. No pain at all after extended wear. And i was surprised at how well they stay in. I havent had a single issue during any workouts of them falling out.

Older Version but Exceptional Sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These buds sound like you're there when listening to a video or audio. It also fits wonderfully into the Galaxy universe and I like the rose brown color because you can't see them in your ear. Also, they're extremely comfortable so no irritation for prolonged use. I have a Galaxy Fold 5 and they are just as good as my $300+ Bose Quiet Comfort II buds.

Great earbuds, stay in ears, good sound, case
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great ear buds. Originally I was concerned with fit due to not having different tips for the ear canal. I've always had 1 size smaller than the other with ear buds to fit correctly. The first few hours I could feel the pressure in my smaller ear, then it went away as my ear adjusted. Now I wear multiple hours a day without any issues (driving for Bluetooth, music, etc). Sound quality is good. I'm not an audiophile, but I do like to have clear treble and decent bass. Obviously, you can get a better overall sound from Over the Ear style with bigger tweeters/speakers in headphones - but I don't always want to wear/I can't always wear that style (driving, work). The ability to use just 1 earbud helps when just doing a quick call. The case acts as both charger and battery pack reserve. I have yet to kill both ear buds and charger case in the same day. Earbuds last about 6 hours. Then case can recharge another 2 or 3 times before getting low. Both the earbuds and charger case have battery indicators in the App. Also a low battery audible signal in ear bud that is low. The App has the ability for EQ settings (dynamic, clear, bass, etc) as well as Noise Cancelation on/off. Overall, nice set of ear buds. Stay charged as long as I need. I also put buds back in case when not using. Sound quality is good for my use. They fit and stay in place (surprisingly) without any support - Includes working, walking/running, shaking head, skating.

Super Comfy and Easy to Use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the most comfortable earbuds I have worn, and they are the only pair I don't rip out as soon as I am done using them. They allow more air flow in the ear and are cooler than other buds that seal into the ear. I am not an audiophile, in that I am not that critical of sound quality, but the sound on these is very good to my unsophisticated ear. I use these with my Pixel 4XL and my Macbook. They paired super easy to the phone out of the box. The live pairing is nice. Once I looked figured out how to manually engage pairing mode, the second device paired easily. Touch controls are sensitive, but not terribly so. You can customize them in the app a bit, and that makes them better. My only complaint is about the live noise cancelling and that is mostly because I am using them "off label" so to speak. I often use headphones to block snoring from my spouse. These reduce the noise well, but pipe the snoring to a single ear and it just doesn't work for me. In all other situations the selective noise cancelling is great. You can get a similar experience for less money or with AirPods, but the comfort is tops, to me at least. User Tip: The user manual Samsung provides in the Wearable app and the Quick Start guide are super lacking in detail, but the Wearable App is pretty self explanatory, and I was able to find the answers to any questions with a quick Google.

Five star audio/design; doesn’t work w/iPhone
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The design is innovative and despite the bean jokes they are incredibly comfortable and fit surprisingly well. The audio is full and dynamic, and I don’t know why some users can’t hear the ANC at work but I can. Sure it isn’t the AirPods Pro level sound isolation, but it gets the job done and there is less ear fatigue. My major complaint and why it gets a three star is it utterly fails to work with iPhone. The iOS app is buggy. It won’t connect with iPhone to play music (even when it says it’s connected via the app, it doesn’t show up in Bluetooth). This is bad when you consider even closed off Apple allows their AirPods to link to Samsung devices. Part of the problem with these buds is there is no link button on charger case, a major omission. Of course it pairs seamlessly to my Samsung Tab S6 Lite. A great product...for Samsung use exclusively.

Really Want to Keep These, However.....
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After 4 days, I really want to keep these, however, still not sure. I tried the Buds Plus before these, but they were uncomfortable and no matter how many combinations of wingtips/eartips I tried, they would not stay in my ears, so am trying these. I like the Buds Live much better as there is nothing jamming into my ear canal, so that's a win. They are comfortable, sound great, the app is great, but there are still two items I am hoping sort out in the next few days. 1) the right bud is not secure in my ear. I have contacted Samsung and am awaiting the Bud Sleeves--hoping this resolves the issue as I really want to keep these. 2) The Buds Plus allowed me to set touch controls to control volume AND use voice assistant. It seems I cannot have both of these functions at the same time with the Buds Live. If there is a way to do this, please advise. Not having this functionality may be a deal breaker for me, however, if right bud does not stay in ear, that is a definite deal breaker. Will update final decision.
