They would stay in your ear even with a lot of movement. Also great price for it. The only bad thing I could say abot them is the microphone, it could be better.

Solid pair of earbuds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm coming from the gear iconX 2018 model and was very interested in these. Pairing it with a Samsung phone is very easy and integrates with the Samsung app to allow customisation and increased dynamic EQ. The sound quality sounds somewhat flat ,but after doing updates and turning on the dynamic EQ it was great. They get fairly loud and are so small and convient. Battery life is solid and the connection is good. I upgraded to this solely for the size, the icon X weren't that big but the charging case is noticeably bigger. So much so, that I didn't like carrying it in my pocket. I do miss the 4gb of onboard storage and the fitness coach, but other than that these are my go to everyday ear buds and still fit great.

They Stay
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They stay in my ears when I run. They don't fall out when I run even with a lot of sweat. Easy to control just by tapping. They are super light and don't weigh you down. The charging case is an absolute boss (don't lose it). Extra power when needed. You can listen in one ear or both. What I do not like is that they aren't loud enough. The ambient setting let's in to much noise. It's really not needed. The sounds comes in louder from my watch than my phone.

Great wireless earbuds, great sound, plug and play
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, these things are comfortable and come with accessories if your ears are a little smaller or little bigger. Luckily for me they fit perfect with the default rubber ear cone. Has Bluetooth 5.0 which is a big benefit. Honestly you should never run out of charge with these babies, I do work doing drilling/construction and the ambient sound settings, not even only having the option for it makes working while on the jobsite(life) a lot safer. The buds themselves have a very clear sound and I can tell a difference between a normal quality song on Tidal compared to Hi-Fi and Master that Tidal offers. Bass is not really that great so I wouldn't recommend bass boost, they are wireless earbuds so don't expect bass so low that it shakes your brain. Battery life on the buds fully charged is about 6-7 hours then you can charge them in a charged case back up to 13 hours of battery life when you are on the go with a case that doubles as a wireless charger. One full charge provides up to six hours of play time and the charging case provides up to an additional seven hours. Really good earbuds for Samsung users. Next versions can only get better. Justin

Super solid pair of earbuds.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super solid pair of ear buds, works well for my school-work lifestyle. The connectivity is good, the sounds is way above average, ambient sound is a plus, not super amazing but pretty good. There is quite a lot of passive noise cancelation so it is great for long study sessions. Comfort in ear is also good, I've done 6hr plane rides with no discomfort compared to other headphones, really light too.

Daily wireless earbuds.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have become my go to earbuds when I want to quickly listen to music without having to pull out my over the ear headphones. The sound quality is really good, and crisp. These also are comfortable to wear although they sometimes fall out. I've gone running and they haven't fallen out, and other times where I'm just walking and they won't seem to stay in. I've swapped tips and ends, and one is either slightly too small or slightly too big for my ear. Probably user error. They are also easy to connect to your device. Just open the case and they immediately connect if you paired them previously. If not, then the pairing pop up will begin once you open the case near a new device. Just like with airpods. The battery life is also great. I charge these maybe once a week, sometimes less than that since the case also has a battery and recharges the earbuds once you put them back in. I owned the original Gear Icon X earbuds from Samsung and these are a vast improvement over those in pretty much every way. If they had to improve, I would say I wish they got louder, had slightly better fit, and if they found a way to reduce accidental touches when you first put them in. When you first put them in, you may accidentally activate the touch controls and music starts immediately playing. Other than that. These are my go to's and I have no complaints, and would buy them again.

Great true wireless earbuds
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since I have an iPhone I was iffy about buying this but overall it provides great sound quality and noise cancellation. If your interested in buying these over air pods I do recommend doing so... cheaper buy but has a better fit in the ear and way better noise cancellation something airpods doesn’t really give.. also note that I do own power beats wireless and I feel as if it’s the same feel in the ear and noise cancellation just without the connecting wire between the 2 pods for power beats wireless.. overall galaxy buds are a great Bluetooth buy for any type of device

happy so far
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these earbuds because I work around machinery all day long and wanted something to block out background noise, but didn't have any wires that could get caught while i was working. Sound quality is good and the passive monitoring works well enough that i can have a conversation without taking them out although it picks up machine noises a little better than voices but still works well enough. Battery will go a full 8 hours without charging and still have around 40% left and i charge the case every couple of days. One downside for me is the case is fairly magnetic so it picks up small metal debris from my pocket and it caused some wear marks to show up inside the case rather quickly. Also wear them while using power equipment and mowers and almost can't hear the engine over the music on low. Overall happy with the purchase
