Anyone making full use of galaxy buds and galaxy watch 46 mm ?

[Shahzad Ghani One]

Super happy with my galaxy s10 plus and thinking about getting buds and watch 46mm .it would be super helpful if any one using these can share their opinions

I usually play games like clash of clans clash royale pubg pvz2 ..and i love to wear headphones while playing . Is there any serious audio latency issue while playing games or watching movies?

Can buds connects automatically with watch or everytime we have to manually reconnect them. Do these both work smoothly with each other? Drop connections etc

Thank you

I use both several times a week at the gym and mowing the lawn. Never had an issue. They connect to the phone when you open the case. Been flawless for me. No latency issues

I have the s3 frontier if that makes a difference.

buds are a nice addition, i use them maybe once a week though.. and I'm looking into getting the watch..

Thanks for replying good to know buds have no latency issues. Do they connect automatically with watch as well ? As they do with the phone

 

[Philipmom]

They only connect to the phone not the watch.

I have the 42mm watch and the buds. It's great to have everything work together without issues

I use both the 46mm Galaxy watch and the earbuds and everything works great together.

My only gripe is that when I am playing music from my phone to a Bluetooth speaker and wearing my watch ( working in garage, yardwork etc) I usually set my phone down next to the speaker but when my watch gets out of range of the phone, music pauses. Very frustrating, work around?

What happens if you go into Wearable, Notifications and scroll to the bottom and turn off Smart Relay?

Toggling smart relay has no effect.

I use the buds every on the way to and from work, and at work when I need to focus.

My main pro tip is to use the the built-in Samsung EQ (search for 'Sound Quality and Effects' then 'Equalizer' the Custom)... the standard EQ that the buds have is way way way too high on the treble. Reduce the frequencies at 8khz and 16khz. I also boosted the low end a bit at about 125Hz.

Also turn on Dolby Atmos and set it to the 'Music' setting (not 'Automatic').

In the Galaxy Buds app, set it to Dynamic.

This will dramatically improve the sound quality (for me at least).

I use buds and watch everyday. I dont play games much but like to watch youtube and Netflix no issues there. Use my watch and buds in gym. After one UI update of my gear 46mm watch battery life has increased to almost double. I use watch with always on. I wear it 7 in morning to 11 in night my leftover battery used to be 7-8 percent and now it's around 65 percent everyday.
