Galaxy Buds

[Bkdodger1]

Hey guys and gals .. I figured get a thread going on the buds.. how ya liking them ? What color did you get ? Pros and cons ..

Today is the first day I'm using them ..

 

[icnmayhem]

I like how small they are, that I can just put them in my pocket without a thought. I also like the wireless charging, which is convenient. but sound wise, they suck. the bass is anemic. they sound cheap.

I'm getting the Note 10+ today and I'm getting these same buds!

They are definitely small and easy to carry ... I like bass so that will be a negative for sure ... We shall see.. my primary daily are Airpods ... And other times Beats Solos..

I love mine. I use them every day. The sound isn't as good as my Jabra 65T's but it's still pretty good. I definitely wouldn't say it sucks. That's a bit extreme.

They pair up well and having used Airpods with an iPhone, I can say that if I have to pick one, it would be the Galaxy Buds. Both do a great job pairing and they are easy to carry around. Sound is better on the Buds. Call quality might be a little better on the Airpods. I just hate wearing the Airpods. The more I see people with them hanging out of their ears, the more I feel silly wearing them. Don't have that feeling with the Buds.

I would say it depends on the music you are listening to. if a bassline is important to your enjoyment, then they suck. but to your point, if your music emphasizes bright treble, or doesn't feature prominent bass, then you may find them sufficient. the main benefit to me is being able to toss them in my pocket without a thought, and leaving them in my ears for extended periods of time without fatigue.

I definitely see your point. I'm sure you are correct about the bass. They are really more of a convenience item for me. I use them in the gym, for phone calls at work or home and just casual listening. If I really wanted to listen to music and get the full experience, I suppose that I wouldn't use wireless headphones at all.

How are they for phone calls? I have a pair of buds that I LOVE for music, but the mic for call quality is unusable. I might get the Galaxy Buds with my promotion...if I ever get my preordered phone.

I use them for calls every day. Never had any complaints from the other end and I can definitely hear the caller just fine. I use them inside and outside so noise cancelation must be pretty good on both ends.

They are a good set of buds. That being said, I much prefer my Jabra 65 elites and use them much more often.

I got a pair with S10+ so have been using them since then. While not best sound, I really like and use when exercising/walking, etc. Stay in pretty good, never had them fall out and easy to charge.

I have the black buds but giving them to my husband when my yellow buds come from the voucher for preordering the note10+. When I first bought the black ones. My biggest worry was they would fall out and wouldn't be comfortable. I was wrong big time. Lol. Very comfortable and they stay put. I usually where small tips but with the buds I wear the medium. Seems to make the music sound better. While yes it might not be the best sound, they work well enough for me.

 

[durandetto]

I've been using them since the S10 launch and I'm not mad at them. Even if I paid $130 I would still be happy with them. Sure there's better sounding ones out there but at this price they're hard to beat. I even got the black ones this time around. Giving my kid the white ones.

I haven't had any complaints from people I talk to and I can hear everyone great. I had more complaints with my LG tones and the mic was closer to my mouth.

I got them when they first came out in March and use them daily. They're so great.

If I didn't jump on my order bc I'm like a kid had to order as soon they sent me voucher I would've got them yellows ... Lol

I find them good fit in ear but just early on my tap and press needs work lol

I have the silver one. So far I'm liking it. I thought I was just gonna sell them (since I got them with the special offer in Samsung on the Note 10.

I do always feel like they would fall off but they really haven't. Maybe just adjusting to it this is my first truly wireless headsets.

I had pretty low expectations for mine. I haven't run across any Samsung or AKG buds that fit my ears well. Most times they simply don't seal no matter what tip I use. I had a pair of AKGs that I bought at the airport that sealed okay, but became really uncomfortable the longer I wore them. I put the buds on initially and my first impression was the fit sucked. Popped in the larger seals and these fit perfect now. It's isolating the noise well and the bass went way up. They also don't feel like they are going to fall out either. All in all, I was pleasantly surprised. As for phone calls, I hear otherwise fine. But others say I sound clear but s little far away.

Lamo I know what you mean I almost caved and got the aura glow buds but made myself wait and I'm glad I did lol. My yellow buds shipped today. Woot woot lol. Yeah the pressing does need work lol

I purchased the black options a couple of months ago.

Best fit for me are the pre fitted medium eartips and wings.

They definitely stay put.

I see comply have now released eartips to provide a more snug fit.

I use the Samsung Music App with Dolby atmos on and use the customisation in the apps settings to change around the bass etc.

No complaints from me.
