Buds Live are super nice!

Is there an option to sync your sound in your TV settings? they work fine on my Samsung TV.
They work fine with my very old Samsung TV as well, but I'm connecting to an Apple TV.

I don't think these buds have the low latency AptX codec, which is what ensures exact synch with audio and video. Sometimes stopping and restarting video works though.
 
They are connected as Bluetooth speakers but left isn't the same as right so I'm hearing the same thing twice.
 
Hi guys. Just so you know. Another member @zorian99 already posted that they requested some sleeves from Samsung support to stop their buds falling from awkward ears.

Having the same issue with my left bud I rang Samsung UK support and they just called me back. I mentioned the forum post and he looked into it for me.

The sleeves are called SKIN CAPS if anyone else needs to request them. They asked me for the Model number, serial number and colour of my buds live and I had to email proof of purchase to them.

Once validated they said it would take 3-5 days to get them.

So thanks for the advice and I am passing on my experiences as well.

Thanks for posting this!! I just had a horrible experience with Samsung yesterday about this via phone. I have the email address of a CSR who helped me with something else, so I may just email her to see if she can help with this.

I really like them for same reasons you do, but they've never been secure in my ears.
 
Does any one have issues with the Beans staying in your ears during work-outs or runs? I'm kinda on the fence with them for this reason alone.
I run with mine and they do not fall out. They do sort of feel like they might because they don't go in the ear but they stay put nicely. It's a nicer feeling than in-ear buds. I can't wear the in-ear very long before I need to take them out, but not these. Impressed with them so far. Haven't worn them in the rain yet but it was close today.

I really love mine too. I was at the gym (which is a REAL shocker for anyone that knows me) riding on a bike and, as sad as it is to admit, I sweat like it's pouring rain... So these guys got pretty drenched. They stayed in my ears regardless and I just cleaned them with a dry cloth when done and am going to try and find something to clean these with after a workout that won't kill them. I'm good with alcohol pads if they are not dripping wet, but I would rather have something that isn't as... chemically? Maybe just a damp cloth with water.

You can clean and disinfect them, and the case, by wiping them down with isopropyl alcohol.

I have had one hell of a time trying to explain what these are on Samsung support lol, I'll keep trying :)
Anyone happen to have a part number?

I know exactly what you mean, I've tried today with the chat people and ended up just giving up LOL
Hopefully I'll have an answer by email tomorrow.
 
I used the shop samsung app and took almost an hour talking to get the sleeves...they told me I'd get them in 2 days and Im still waiting a week later so who knows how they will work :(

Yeah the mod gave me a link which I was using anyway, no joy there, I think I might just have spoken or chatted to every Samsung operative available
yesterday evening lol.

Might try again later:)

Check my last post there on the Samsung Community, I think I had success as I have just received an email confirming the request.
 
I've run into an issue twice when using these with the Microsoft Teams app. We use the app for work meetings sometimes, but I connect the video with my laptop and do the audio through my phone. For some reason, the buds become unavailable as an option on teams. All the settings look ok and calls through the phone still work fine. Rebooting the phone resolves it, but this really shouldn't occur. Anyone else run into something similar?

You should have stopped at Microsoft Teams...

Seriously, I have not had any issues with BT with Teams, not sure what the deal might be. Re-Pair them?
 
Does anyone have the Anker liberty pro 2 to compare with the galaxy buds?

If so which one do you like best?

I was thinking of using one of my $150 credits for the buds but I've also heard really good things about the liberty pro 2's.
 
Buds live are super comfy BUT for me the lack of isolation is bothersome. Turning on ANC really doesn't do a hell of alot and the difference is small. My gotos are still the galaxy buds plus as my daily driver and the live are my backup for calls and wireless music.
 
I really like these, and they're the main reason that I upgraded but I'm having fit issues, especially the left one. It's never secure and within minutes the top of it (with the rubber piece) is always sticking out of my ear. It's very frustrating as I prefer open style and there's nothing else like it in wireless that I'm aware of.
