Galaxy Buds+

I have shopped around for headphones for years, I've had Sony's, a pair of JVC's just to name some and the bud+ are definitely my favourite on sound, customizability and colour. the amount of things you can customize on these is amazing (with the app), they aren't noise cancelling but the fit makes them pretty much noise cancelling, I have a keyboard with blue switches so it's quite loud and I pretty much can't hear it when wearing the bud+. I love how much you can do with the app like what taps can control what and how ambient sound makes it so you can wear both earphones and still be able to hear what's going on around you and you can control how loud the pass-through is as there is 4 setting for ambient sound. the equaliser means you can have the headphones set to your personal preference ranging from base boost to clear and there is 6 setting for this as well as you can make the bud+ have their own volume so can go louder than what your phone has set but I don't think you'd need this feature unless your work around loud machinery because them on the dynamic setting on full is very loud and make sit virtually impossible to hear other things that aren't what you're listening to. The base on these is amazing, listening to things such as bring me the horizon and YungBlud is next level with these on. The colour range these come in means that if you and someone else have the same brand you won't get mixed up as you aren't limited to either black or white. Both the earphone box and the earphones themselves don't feel cheap and I have the blue so the pearlescence on the earphones is a nice touch. Defiantly worth the money and they have surpassed my expectations on everything, I don't own a Galaxy phone and they still work amazingly. ---------------------------------------------------------- Update from November 18th 2021: (had them around 7 months) I still absolutely love these headphones, the only issues I have had with them is that they can take a while to get fully charged if you let them die and forget to charge them instantly but other than that I still stand by my review. the case is very durable as I have now dropped it onto concrete a few times but the lid didn't stay closed so I nearly lost a bud but that was mainly my fault for not putting them in a secure pocket while not using them. I have also used them while getting dental work and I could still hear what was being played and I have never had pairing issues with them on any device ( I've used them on my google phone, my surface pro and my PC and never had an issue with them). Still very comfortable and the charge from full is still amazing as I use them for my commute to and from University (the journey is between 2/3 hours and being on a bus for that long you need something loud enough to drown out the bus) and I use them while being at University and I've never had them die. so I'd rate them 9/10 but if the lid had a better mechanism for staying closed it would be a 10/10

The galaxybuds+ after multiple years of use are still some of the best in ears that i've used from day to day. Whilst working, they are amazing you can listen to your audio, I usually like some crude comedy podcasts hosted by Theo Von where they tell jokes i can't have on loudspeaker due to the nature of the jokes. TWO WORDS: TOUCH CONTROL, you don't have to click into your ear which can be annoying and discomforting due to air pressure and ears being sensitive to it. It even works through thin gloves. The galaxybuds noise passthrough is their greatest feature which allows you to hear your surrounding, this is also very good on public transport where you need to hear announcements and footsteps near you due to shady people unfortunately being alive on this planet. The battery life without noise passthrough is genuinely around 9 hours which is stupendous after two years of basically daily usage. Your phone will most likely die before the earbuds do. The sound signature is just clear and decent overall I doubt if you're an audiophile you'll be thrilled but be able to at least accept that it isn't bad by any means and its pretty mediocre good. For the price its pretty damn good considering they're around a 100 less than apple airpods and very easy to conceal if you have a hat or long hair. Don't expect crazy bass (what are you thinking its wireless earbuds) however THERE IS A DECENT AMOUNT I JUST SAID DONT EXPECT CRAZY. If you want the best possible audio then you're best bet is to just get wired IEMs but for the person who is considering a wireless option since most phones no longer have a 3.5mm jack. THESE ARE A GREAT OPTION! (often on sale for 100 or even less so buy it if you see them on a price cut)

Don't know where to start - amazing! The clarity of music is ridiculous (in a good way) and you can really completely zone out being immersed in your favourite music collection. Call quality is something I struggled with prior to coming to the Samsung buds, having owned the original buds now the buds plus. The battery life is perfect for long journeys and will last you throughout the day with up to 11 hours of listening in a full charge with the ability to get even more life in a day if you charge them in the holder. The holder is small enough to fit in your jeans pocket if needed (not recommended with skinny jeans!) They have a really snug fit inside the ear with the wings not causing any issues with the fit, unless you maybe have ridiculously small ears! There are a variety of controls you can take advantage of by tapping the side of your headphones - my personal favourite is being able to open spotify by just by tapping my right earbud so I don't need to open my phone at all. Full details come with the guide provided in the headphone packaging. Whilst the buds plus do not have the latest noise cancellation technology as seen on the new buds pro - you still maintain a good level of cancellation through the headphone wings and the ear bud going into the ear. If noise cancellation is something you are really looking for I'd suggest upgrading to the pro's but for me these are perfect! Haven't had any problems with them at all when running or working out, however I do not particularly sweat much at all. Work perfectly for all devices but even better with samsung devices as you can sync with the wearables app and adjust the ambient sounds, find your headphones you lose them, change the equaliser settings for music depending on your taste and check battery level. Must purchase!

After upgrading my phone to a s20 last year, it was also time to upgrade my handfree headset too. I was still using a wired handsfree headset for my calls and I thought now was the time to get a set of modern Bluetooth wireless ear buds. With the Samsung Buds+ being on prime day sale they were offered at a fantastic price, so I decided to go for them. Upon receiving them, pairing was straight forward and every time the case is opened it automatically pairs up with the buds seamlessly. The sound quality is good, but not amazing. The bass is balanced so those of you who are bass inclined wont like these. (I would recommend the Jabra 75T if you really like the bass frequencies) The buds are more tuned for an overall balanced sound, the highs can get quite muffled. However these are not high end headphones and therefore compromises have to be made. These are fantastic for a good set of headphones on the move. Reasonably priced and provide a good amount of background noise sealing. The subtle wing tips on these are great and help keep the buds in your ear, which means you could actually do a run with these. I haven’t tried it personally but from the way it sits in my ear it should stay. The wing tip edge isn’t too intrusive and doesn’t cause any pain over long periods. Although with everyone’s ears being different this might not be the case for you. The feature where it uses the outer mics to allow to hear the outside world is useful. You can control the intensity of this. You don’t need the app to run the buds but you don’t have access to the equilizer and therefore you can tailor the buds to your sound taste. Fantastic battery life and perfect for handsfree calling. You can use one ear bud if you wish for telephone conversation whilst keeping the other bud in the case. I love listening to music too, and whilst its no match for my Bose QC35’s the form factor of these buds mean you tend to choose the buds when heading out the door purely for convenience and size. They are not the best but definitely a good all rounder pair of wireless buds. Beware of fakes. Make sure you buy from a reputable supplier (direct from Samsung or direct from amazon uk etc) I recall the fakes have a plastic inner disc vent and the genuine ones are silver metal I believe.

i have to give these 5 stars as i am completely satisfied with them. I use them for both my android (Samsung) phone and min Win10 PC. Connectivity is seamless, the touch functionality works both for Android and Win 10 (you can single tap when watching or listening on any bud to stop/play the content both on Win10 and Android). They connect without any trouble to my phone and laptop. Sound wise, you won't find better sounding buds/wireless in ear devices that sound better than the Galaxy Buds + at this price point (£135). They have a dual sound production inside ( separated lows and highs), which generate that audiophile type sound, smooth, not over pronounced either in the lows/med/or highs. I would say best thing i have heard thus far. Bass is tight, goes low but not too in your face. They pack a punchy sound but not the type a bass head would enjoy. They have good mids and smooth highs, very suitable for long listening sessions. I forgot to mention they have equalizer presets in the Galaxy app, and i would suggest the Dynamic setting. Sounds the best to me. Battery holds stellary through out the day, definitely as advertised. Comfort wise, they feel good they hold really well and would never fall. They come packed with different ear fittings so if you have bigger/smaller ears they fit in both cases. It is true that if you have them on for over 3 hours at a time there is some uncomfortable feeling but that is the case with any buds. I would say comfortable for up to 3 hrs continuous listening then a bit of discomfort. Another thing that may interest buyers: sound isolation. These don't have ANC. Still,though, because of their extremely good fit in the ear canal, they provide the best sound insulation i have ever experienced with buds. Honestly, unless you specifically want ANC, they do the job and then some. I honestly find myself sometimes behaving to be really careful about my surroundings while walking through Streets as i cant hear much of my surroundings even when listening at moderate volume. So in conclusion: if you find these discounted from £135, and you want true wireless buds, with amazing sound, good fit, and very nice functionalities--- PRESS THAT BUY BUTTON. Even a £135 they are a very good buy.

I had been looking for a while now for the best ear buds I could find for the money. I was tempted to get a £20-£30 pair as there seemed to be some good ones for that price...however a colleague of mine showed his off (these ones!!) and said how amazing they were, and that he loved them. I then, the next day, had an email about Amazon's Spring Deal and there they were, about £40 off the price, so I snapped them up! I love them! The good points... - They arrived nice and snug in their container. Its exceptionally well made and they snap in a charm. - The charging is excellent and you can see how well charged they are with their downloadable App - They are a great fit in my ears, and together with the extra silicone ear and wing tips - Their sensitivity for pausing and resuming is excellent, a bit too good as if you brush them in error it activates - They connect super easy when using them, and self activate the Bluetooth on my phone - really nice! - The sound quality is superb! The sound for the other person listening when you call is great too. I speak to my nan every night on FaceTime, she's 96 and very hard of hearing - she hears me perfectly when I use them. Crisp high notes, powerful basslines and clear sound. - The accompanying case is lovely, very sleek, fits well in my pocket The bad point (only 1) - I knew this before I bought them but I have an iPhone 7+ and the connectivity can sometimes be a bit temperamental - if my Grandma calls me or I answer a call sometimes I have to un-connect and re-connect the Bluetooth before they connect. Only ever so often, but that is the only bug bear - but DO NOT let them put you off....they are FANTASTIC nonetheless. Pairing couldn’t be simpler. Open the case, pop them in, start streaming Overall I'd give these earbuds 9.8/10, the only .2 is the connection issue I touched on above. But they are an amazing product and I would highly recommend you purchasing them :-)

I've always had issues with earbuds falling out, which is why I never invested in wireless earbuds in fear of losing them. I only decided to invest in these after a friend let me use his and I jumped around the room trying to get them to fall out, but they sat securely. First few days wearing them I was amazed at their noise cancelling, unless people were standing quite close to me I could barely hear them, and the sound coming from them is really good. Excellent quality. I can use either earbud to skip songs or play previous song and I can just tap my ears to adjust the volume. The vibration of the ear tapping tells the earbud you want a volume change. I don't have to use my phone for anything music related. I can press and hold the side of the earbuds to get my phone to do certain things. Holding a finger to my left earbud will open Alexa and holding a finger on the right one will turn ambient sound on or off, but you can adjust this in the app. That's just what I've set mine to. But the most useful feature by far is ambient sound. I did a lot of night shifts and I lived just outside of town, so I would be walking a lot at night in deserted streets. I was not comfortable walking with both my earbuds in especially if the noise cancellation was good. But ambient sound will use the buds microphone and feed any sound back through the bud and you can hear everything! You can even adjust the volume at which it feeds it back to you, including amplifying it. Especially useful if someone is talking to you very quietly or you're a bit hard of hearing. The wireless charginf is also a very useful feature. Definitely by far the best earbuds I've bought

I am absolutely blown away by these little things. I have only been using the Galaxy Buds+ for the past few days, switching from my phone (for music), and my PC (for Zoom calls and also music). Despite my limited number of days use, I've used them almost all day, every day and the things that stick out are - in no particular order-: -Ease of use -Battery life -Sound quality Upon unboxing and opening the Buds case, my phone (Galaxy A71) instantly lit up, recognising the buds and installed the Galaxy Wearable app. The app gives you settings like ambient sound, some EQ, touch controls, "Find My Earbuds" and other advanced options. As well as this, the app can tell you the battery percentage of the buds. Speaking of the battery - it's insane. I had a whole stretch between 9am-5pm that I had these buds in constantly- again switching between phone and PC. When I finally finished up for the day, I checked the battery and was at 42%. That's 8 hours of constant use without having the buds back in the charging case. Based on this and the days since, I can safely say that the buds over delivered on my expectations with regards to battery life. Now, the main event, sound quality. Straight to the point here - they over delivered yet again. Considering the size of these things, it packs a punch. Bass is solid. Mids are good, Highs crystal. I genuinely couldn't have asked for them to sound better considering the size. If you're concerned about the lack of ANC, don't be too worried. I find the fit to be so good that I can't even hear myself smash the keys on my mechanical keyboard as I type this. Although, I haven't had the chance to test them on the bus or airplane. I've seen a lot of other reviews saying they didn't receive any UK documentation or warranty info. The product I received did indeed have the correct UK documentation. This is the best purchase I've made in quite some time and would recommend Galaxy Buds+ to anyone looking for TWS Earphones.
