Work Well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have spent well over $100 a year for the past couple of years dealing with other Bluetooth headphones that did nothing for me. As soon as one would go out, the other would shortly after; making me have to return to Best Buy and replace them. But these earbuds have been the best thing that's happened to me in the tech world thus far. Inexpensive, never taken back to store yet, one goes out of power the other keeps working. Not much more I can say about these buds but that I wish I would've known about them sooner.

Decent workout earbuds but not apple airpods.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These ear buds were pretty decent. However at times it felt like listening through a tunnel, now that could have been because I had the smaller bud ends on instead of medium. They were decent price at near half off and easy to setup, use, and manage during a workout. They did work great for a workout as it has said and great for running and getting sweaty. However we did return them as they're not Apple Airpods sound quality.

Best fit, good enough sound and features
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As someone who has used the Sony 1000x m3, the Sennheiser momentum, the Jabra elite and the BO play true wireless, I can say these fit better than any other ones I've ever tried. I can't say they have the best features or the best sound quality, but everything's good enough and the fit is perfect. I wouldn't say sound quality is the best thing to prioritize in a device like this. Portability and comfort is what they nailed perfectly. Probably the best alternative airpods option on the market in terms of comfort and portability.

Great for working out!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's great for working out. I haven't really used ambient mode except the day I tested it out. It completely blocks out everything around you and the sound quality is great. I typically recharge once a week. Great sound focus too. When I'm driving and listening to music in my car, people can hear me as if they were in the car with me. But as for casual use I may invest in some air pods. With air pods you'll forget they're in your ear. Theyre a little more comfortable. But if you listen to lots of music the galaxy buds are the way to go.

Sounds great, but no info?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like everything about these -- they're comfortable, fit great with the choice for the wingtips which is a nice feature, and sound great. I am frustrated though that there was not a single piece of paper in the packaging that goes over the different commands for them, eg how to pause, skip, etc. Kind of annoying I have to go searching for this info (which is not even here) Overall I recommend these but wish it had more (or any) info in the packaging about the specs

Sounds great, feels great!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I had to pick between Samsung’s Galaxy Buds or Apple’s AirPods, I’d choose the Galaxy Buds any day! The bass hits your ear drum on another level, the microphones hear you and only you, and if you are pairing them with a Samsung Galaxy phone you get amazing features like the equalizer and the ability to hear your surroundings while listening to audio. Battery life lasts way longer than any other wireless earbud I have purchased. Gets me thru an entire 8hr shift. Great price and great product.

My year owning them.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For over a year, I have owned them and there are no problems with battery or use, the tactile functions still perfectly well and no signs of wear show on them in the chrome parts were you touch them. I personally take good care of my electronics and these buds are in perfect condition and no signs of slowing down and my 6 hours of use at work still stand to this day. And I hear them as clear as the newer buds, for me its the same, one of my best purchases I have done.

Perfect earbuds for me
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They've been working perfectly. Sound great and get pretty loud. They block out a lot of sound when you have them on and it is barely noticeable to other people when you have them on. Touch controls work perfectly but I have them off because I hit them by accident sometime. They hold a pretty good charge and recharge pretty quickly. I also love how in the software you can customize your buttons and see exactly how much battery you have. Perfect earbuds

Great sound quality
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these after returning the Anker earbuds and have been very pleased with the sound quality of the Galaxy buds. I've never spent so much on earbuds before but it's honestly been worth it. I don't use them for very long stretches at a time, but I haven't had to recharge them after that first initial one out of the box. Definitely recommend these ones! (Also, they switch between my Galaxy S7, ipad mini, and macbook pro without any effort on my part. It's even better than I expected on that front.)

Not bad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not bad for the price. Easiest to use, perhaps, with other Samsung products. On non-Samsung Android products, need to download the Samsung Wearables app, which isn't hard to do and is a fairly handy app. That said, at $130 I'd be tempted to bump upward a bit and look at the Jabra line. Were I to head upward in price a little further, I'd probably eyeball the Sony noise-canceling variety. But these certainly are decent for around $130, even better if on sale.
