Audio quality

So I fired up Tidal and plugged in the headphones from the box, tuned the advanced sound settings to fit my hearing range, and turned on upscaling. Holy crap. for a pair of Freebies, I am super happy with them.

They definetely sound better than the Buds, though I use the Buds for running, and they sound good for $130 true wireless. Comparing then to my Bowers and Wilkins Px... well, I can't plug those in yet, and wired vs bluetooth isn't fair, or $350 vs free, but they sound good. I probably won't bother buying a wired dongle for the Px.

I think they put out more bass than the Buds.

I thought with correct cable the Bowers & Wilkins PX can use the USB C port.

Don't know. Wasn't included in the box. I broke down and bought the adapter

So I finally tried out the included AKG earbuds last night. After a quick firmware update for the earbuds, I cranked up some Sister Hazel, and holy crap! They actually sound good. Keep in mind, I am no audiophile, and I normally use my Bose Wireless earbuds or my JBL headphones (both BT).

are these AKG bt too or require an adapter?

The only problem I have with the AKG earbuds is that they don't seem to stay in my ears.

I always give them headphone to my nephew's.
My ears are big. So I need headphones that's cover ear or clip around ear.
Even the Samsung new ear buds wasn't staying in comfortably.
My wife took them...

The included AKG earbuds are USB-C, no adapter needed. Just plug it in. Mine did a quick firmware update.

I usually give them away too. At least the Buds stay in my ear.

I had looked into those... Thought it came with a cable.

I have a question:
When I was watching you tube the sounds come from ear piece and bottom speaker, when I block the top ear piece the sound is still strong even in back of the phone , so I thought the microphone next to the sim tray might be another speaker I block that and ear piece still strong sound . Where is this other top speaker? Did Samsung use the sound wave through display?

No sound wave through the display but the body does act as a sound chamber. You can feel it more naked.... Not you, the phone

No this different from body sound chamber like pixel , I remember early leaks mentioned Samsung would use sound wave display , but dont know never experience that tech yet.

I haven't seen them boast about that feature. There is definitely sound at the top. Go look at the tear down.

Show me where it was confirmed by Sammy. I'm not saying it isn't but unless I see proof, no cigar.
