  • The short answer to this is Yes. If you are in the market for a new set of headphones and consider $199 a doable price to pay, then these are very good earphones. Gym and fitness-focused users will certainly get more out of them than other users but gener...

  • Battery life and charging process improved, Pairing and connections work well, Media transfers and updates now handled by phone
  • Still expensive for "secondary" headphones, Not everyone will value the fitness features, Battery life less than typical neckbud-style headphones, Sound quality isn't great
  • With the second generation IconX headphones, Samsung has fixed two of the biggest issues with the buds: they now last longer (and charge faster), and the software experience has improved markedly. That means you don't have anxiety about battery life every...

  • Good all around Bluetooth ear buds with some cool features

  • On-board storage still good, Improved ergonomics
  • Not a huge improvement over original buds
  • In Samsung's efforts to lean into everything that worked about the original IconX, they've pivoted away from everything the product could be. They're successful in that they improve upon the original, but every step of the way it's clear that Samsung took...

  • Samsung's Gear Icon X 2018 is a small, comfortable-to-wear, totally wireless earphone that has improved battery life and a smaller charging case than the previous model's. They fit discreetly, sound decent for this type of headphone, and have touch contro
  • Some of the features don't work with iOS devices; touch controls are a bit hit or miss
  • Samsung has improved the second-generation Gear Icon X to become one of the better totally wireless headphones, especially for Galaxy phone owners...

  • On-board storage still good, Improved ergonomics
  • Not a huge improvement over original buds
  • Much like Jabra's second-gen Elite Sport earbuds, the Samsung Gear IconX 2018 feel distinctly more like an easy-iteration than a valuable evolution. The biggest gains here come with the improved ergonomics and buffed battery life. However, beyond those ga...
