    I ordered this as I am a big fan of Samsung products. First time I tried, i was unable to fit in my ears. Then I watched so many youtubes videos to fit this thing in my ears but I could not. The design has a big flaw which makes it very uncomfortable in ears. I used for 15-20 mins and my ears were crying. I had to return it. Sometimes companies try to make a simple thing very complex just to look different and that is why they fail. Not recommended.

    They worked good for 1 week. I had to return them. Volume is to low. The 1st ear buds are louder then this one. Volume control hard to use.

    Not great for people with small ears! I put them on, literally pushing them in. My ears where in so much pain as if i was beat with a baseball bat and my ear canal was red, itchy and swollen. You need to make them smaller for smaller ears. Other than that, they are great!

    They're okay, but will hurt your ear canals if you leave them in for too long.

      Howdy Bondgirl, thanks for taking the available time out of your busy day to share your thoughts with us about your Samsung Galaxy Buds Live. We appreciate your candor as we make every effort to improve the design and functionality of our product line. Our goal is for our customers to feel like they are having the most ideal experiences while using our products. Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on our products for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. You may have worn earbuds that either pinched your ears or were too loose. Both options are equally uncomfortable, whether you're out jogging or just listening to music. Thankfully, you'll never have those problems with your Samsung earbuds. If they don't fit right, you can simply swap the earbud tips and wingtips. If you wear your buds correctly, it will help ensure they remain comfortable while providing the best sound and call quality possible. Your Galaxy Buds Live come with small and large wingtips that you can swap out for a more secure fit. You could even use different sizes for each ear. If your Galaxy Buds Live do not fit comfortably, you can order a pair of Buds Sleeves. Check out, "How to wear you Samsung earbuds" for more information. Feel free to contact Samsung Support if you would like further assistance. Thank you for being a valued Samsung customer. - Debra Samsung

    Comfortable and feels quality. Noise canceling mode doesn't seem to make a difference. Also constantly sounded like I was breaking up to people I was talking to on the phone.

    I use these with my IPhone 12 Pro and I don’t know if it’s because they’re Samsung but the connection sometimes cuts off and it won’t let me turn the music back on by pressing the budz I have to open up my phone and hit play. Connection is weak having my phone in my pocket. I gave the refurbished budz a shot but I’m not liking them so far

    I love these headphones. The only con is people tell me i sound muffled on the phone all the time so I keep having to adjust them to fix my sound. The buds after a couple of months started dying quicker, im assuming the refurbished status was why…
