Happy new years.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound quality with the noice cancelation and ambient sound i was very pleased. Only downside is when i go running they do need adjusting to prevent slipping. They got ran over for newyears i left them on the trunk of my car and fell off in the middle of the street. surprisingly still work i was able to track them once i relized what happend (14hours later) and the head phones still work perfectly fine , case got a little beat up.

I see no significant scratches or fractures on the earbuds, they are truly durable, ordered them for one day deliver and they got here on time and the packaging was splendid and of qualilty.

Affordable and highly reliable
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using the Buds2 for more than 6 months and I have been quite pleased with them. Of course they pair seemlessly with my Galaxy S22. But I also use them with my Macbook Pro M1 and my iPad pro. What I really appreciate is the active noise cancelling function. It really blocks out much of the outside noise! Though I wish the battery life was a little bit better, the case provides extra power and it chargea the buds quite fast. Highly recommend to anyone, android or apple user, who need a reliable set of wireless earphones.

Samsung - Galaxy Buds+ True Wireless Earbuds
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are a solid "True Wireless" set of earbud headphones. Sound is very good, especially since there are ways to adjust sound levels through the app. Fit and comfort are on point. Touch buttons are very sensitive when putting them in-ear, but that is not an issue. Pus, so far battery life has been superb. Even though these are not ANC, I'm quite impressed at how well these cancel external sounds to where I find myself using the Ambient aware option when speaking to people while I'm wearing them.

Astounding Noise Canceling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've bought 2 pairs of these galaxy buds in the last month because of how great the noise canceling is. I lost one from the first pair, so I decided to buy a different brand because I'm thinking this brand big brand is made for "studio" use so the noise canceling must be great... but NOT AT ALL so i returned them and bought a second pair of the galaxy buds. I watch a lot of YouTube videos during the day so I wear them so I won't disturb the ones around me. These are a really awesome pair of buds.

Very good with some flaws
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Short version: These are worth getting, but they need some EQ to get them to sound their best. They are comfortable, lightweight, and the case has a small footprint. The features are great for this price point. Long Version I'm an android, Galaxy Note 9 User. With some tweaking these can sound amazing. As far as features go, these ticked all the boxes for me. Those boxes are wireless charging, independent earbud use, touch controls, pass through hearing, and fins/wings to hold them in ear. You'd be surprised at how many true wireless earbuds that list eliminates, even ones that are supposed to have better sound. Aura Blue looks amazing in person. The case is sort of metallic in color and it is hard to photograph. The pictures on the website and even on the box don't do it justice. They are very deep blue in person. As soon as I saw these I wanted them. The buds themselves have a mix of gloss for the touchpad, and matte for the buds. They're not as slippery as the black version which I really like. The fins and eartips could use some extra sizes such as extra large and extra small. There are a wide variety of ear cartilage shapes and the more options the better. Speaking of sound, these sound very flat and neutral with stock settings. These have a dual driver setup with one dedicated toward the low end/bass. However, your first impression will be, "where's the bass?" Instead of being tuned bass heavy, they are tuned relatively flat. Still, due to the dedicated bass driver, they can handle heavier bass settings in post EQ processing. I'm glad these are not tuned bass heavy but this leads to my first gripe. The EQ in the wearables app is straight up garbage. It is lacking in any real control. The presets do not highlight the capabilities of the drivers. The "Dynamic" setting sounded the best on the original Galaxy Buds, but in the Buds+ it created a very annoying harsh sound in the upper frequencies. It made "S" sounds in vocals too sibilant (think of a snake hiss sound), same thing with high hats. I found leaving it on normal or soft sounds best, then I EQ in two, that's right, two other locations. If you are on android and you have your music on your device as opposed to streaming it, you NEED to get the app Poweramp. It has a very robust EQ that supersedes the phone's global EQ. On Samsung phones, the default system wide EQ will lower your volume if you boost a frequency higher than one "tick", PowerAmp mitigates this. I add bass and boost upper mids with powerAmp. This thickens the low end and makes vocals and guitars extra clear. The second app I use for EQ is powerEQ. This allows me to access another level of bass that triggers a sub bass subwoofer type of low end that is very pleasant. I add a few points of bass there, a little bit of surround, and here's the most important part: I add gain to the signal. This gain give you back the volume you use from boosting the bass signal in either powerEQ or the android global EQ (if you're not using power amp) With this combination of EQ tricks the galaxy buds + feel like a clean platform for you to shape to your liking. This could ALL be avoided if Samsung gave us a 10 band graphic EQ or even better a parametric EQ. One can only hope. If you don't want to bother with those apps, make sure you at least turn on Dolby Atmos if you are on galaxy phones, use the advanced sound tuning (the one that gives you the hearing test) and it will boost a bunch of frequencies for you. Bottom line, post processing is your friend. My 2nd gripe was the battery life of the case. I went through 3 pairs of galaxy buds (two of them through amazon) because the case would drain very quickly. What was happening is the buds would reach 100% charge. Then for no good reason one would drop to 99% and the case would do its thing to charge it to 100% again. This loop would happen several times until the bud settled. For example. Using the buds for an hour would leave them at around 90% battery. The case would be at 100% and drain to about 89 to get the buds back to 100%. I would check the battery and every 20 minutes I would lose a few percent until the case battery would settle at around 67-70%. All to bring back about an hour's worth of charge. Ridiculous! It has to be a bug where the case thinks one of the buds is not fully charged. Anyway, I returned two pairs to amazon and decided to go for these because of the color and I figured Best Buy would have a different batch that might not be affected by what i'm calling a bug/defect. So far I'm right. The Aura Blue color have not drained and it looks like i'l be getting closer to the 11 hours than the 5 I was getting before. If it starts happening to these I'll update the review. Due to this flaw I made sure I got the extended warranty. If this is how it starts, I can't imagine where battery life will be in a year or so. Battery life of the earbuds themselves is stellar. I left the volume at 50 and let music play until they both died. They lasted for 12 hours. Ambient mode was off, and I wasn't using the touch pads. I literally left the buds on my desk playing music. I'd pick them up every so often to make sure sound was still coming out of them. In real world usage it will be less than 12 hours because of volume, ambient mode , and touch pad use. Ergonomics are good. I Like the touch pads and I like that you can lock them. I lock them when I work out so that when I wipe my sweat I don't accidentally trigger a pause/volume/ whatever. I wish you could use gestures instead of taps. It would be cool to swipe up and down for volume, and left and right to change songs or activate voice assistant etc. Call quality is almost excellent. It is not as good as speaking directly into your phone. It is a slightly softer presentation than that. However it is worlds better than the old Galaxy Buds and even some over ear headphones I've used. These do not sound muffled and they do a pretty good job of isolating your voice from background noise. No one I've been on a call with has asked if i'm using headphones or asked me to repeat things. Lack of noise cancelling is not an issue for me. I think these do a great job of isolating external sounds and once the music starts I can't really hear anything. I had these and the Sony wf sp800n at the same time. The noise cancelling on those was only ok. It dulled low frequency noise but introduced a bit of hiss and you could still hear high frequency constant noises. For example the hum of the air conditioners compressor was muted, but the chirp of its fan was not. These isolate enough noise that it feels like wearing earplugs. So if you're going to be crossing the street you should probably use ambient mode. Personally noise cancelling is not a must for me, if it is for you then its omission will be a deal breaker for you. Final Thoughts: My perfect Galaxy Buds would have swipe gestures for the touch pads, a 10 band parametric eq, and a bigger battery for the case. Other than that I think these are a solid buy. I've attached screen shots of my power amp, powerEQ and wearables settings.

Very nice
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They have been very good quality. The galaxy buds are the first quality earbuds I've used or purchased. So they are a decent jump up in quality. I've had them for maybe two months now. I haven't had any problems besides my ears hurting after having them in for a while, but I don't think this is a common issue. Overall good quality and I like the designated app for it.
