    Best Buds Yet

    As someone who has owned the Samsung Galaxy Buds and the Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus, the Galaxy Buds Live are easily the most stylish and comfortable wireless earbuds I've ever tried. I truly forget that I am wearing them and they are easier to keep clean. Love that the case is flatter and smaller than the previous iterations. Sound quality is pretty great too. Definitely a lot more low end sound on these. I got the Mystic Bronze to match the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra coming out here soon!

    Excellent quality, extremely easy setup as it came charged and ready to play right out of the box, and instantly paired with my Samsung S21. These stay in my ears better than any other headphones or earbuds I’ve ever used. Also, they work independently with no hassle, so I can charge one and wear one while walking about the house. But they do hold a charge practically all day, anyway.

    I love my samsung buds live so much! I have teeny tiny ears and was apprehensive abt purchasing them at first. But they dnt fall out when i talk, chew, yawn, or anything. After a few hours in my ear, my ear gets a little sore. The sounds is loud and i cant hear a single thing except my music or podcast. Im thrilled with my choice and i can finally have peace and tune the screaming little children out with my buds in!

    This is my fourth pair of buds. My first pair of Samsung buds. I've had bose and jbuds before these. By far i love these the most. Sound quality is excellent and the live buds are extremely great mainly by the way they fit and rest in your ear. Theres no squishy thing shoved into your ear canal. Which over time gets uncomfortable. But the live buds there is none of that and battery life and case size are fantastic. Would highly recommend and I am not one to write reviews.

    Sound quality is very good with the Galaxy Buds Live. Unfortunately, the sound, while listening to anything a little above average volume, is easily heard by anyone in close proximity. They stay nicely in my ears and are very comfortable. Plus, the look is pretty innovative. I recommend these IF you listen a lot in private. All in all, I prefer my Galaxy Buds+.

    These earbuds work great. Great sound quality and connectivity. My only criticism is the fit. They are fine for a workout, but you can't wear them running or cycling.

    Do not buy for the noise cancelling.

    The rating says "average" but I'd say, they're okay. Firstly, do not buy these for the noise cancelling. It's basically non existent, it's not even a feature in my opinion. I'll start with the good - I love the concept of open-style earbuds. Like the original airpods, these don't plug up your ears. This is incredibly convenient if you're at work and still need to communicate with people, it's the entire reason I bought them. These are great for that, and since they don't get very loud (more of a negative there) there's a lot of space for me to turn the music down really low so I can still hear it when things get quiet and nobody's talking. People are also complaining that they're uncomfortable, of course they are at first anything that isn't a normal silicone tipped bud is gonna take some getting used to. Stick it out for a day or two and you won't even notice them anymore. And I haven't had many falling out problems, far less than I'd expect from these BEANS. But I don't see that as much as of pro and more of base expectations from $170 earbuds. Also did I mention they look like BEANS? How could you not love the beans?! Well... Now the bad - First off, the case feels terrible. It feels cheap, looks cheap, and squeezing it has this horrible crunch that just, again, feels really cheap. They fall out of their box real easy, it's the regular galaxy buds but worse. I had to get an expensive shell to go around it just to keep them closed as I like to hook them to my belt loop. While they're in your ear you may notice (like I did) that throughout the day they may reposition to where the primary speaker that shoots down your ear canal will get covered up by part of your ear. You'll then start cranking the volume, and when you finally go to fix the bud suddenly things get REALLY LOUD. I didn't start noticing it until yesterday, but now that I have it's a pretty obvious problem. The touch controls on these SUCK, they literally had to make a part on the wearable app to teach you how to tap your bud correctly. It took forever but I finally got it down, you just have to tap it way harder than I was comfortable with at first coming from the original galaxy buds. Also half the time when I go to pause or unpause it just records to taps and skips track which is frustrating. Finally, anytime I've used the noise cancelling (or even the opposite ambiet sound function) I've gotten weird moments where it feels like the bud is adjusting to the environment and starts making this quiet crackling sound for a few seconds. It wasn't often but it caught me off guard when it did, cause again, I could literally feel it adjusting. It's definitely a weird feeling. I just don't bother with those functions. Overall - They're just okay. I'm going to keep using them. They're really convenient for my work and I don't intend on switching to airpods and being a hypocrite, but I have to admit the temptation is really there. I'm in such disbelief by how bad the noise cancelling is, and the fact that they not only spent the money trying to add that feature but actually tried using it as a selling point is unbelievable. They're good as open style earbuds that allow you to hear your environment while listening to your podcasts or whatever. These are absolutely NOT noise cancelling or sound isolating whatsoever. It pains me to say it, but if you're not like me and are willing to give Apple your money, but want an open style earbud, get airpods. 4/10 wouldn't but again but I'll keep them I guess

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
