Abstract: Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Buds alongside the Galaxy S10, replacing a couple iterations of the admittedly mediocre IconX earbuds. These new earbuds traded off some of the less important features from its predecessors while making improvements in all th...

These compact, lightweight noise-isolating true wireless earphones should fit most ears securely. They sound decent, battery life is good (around 6 hours at moderate volume levels) and their compact charging case offers USB-C wired and wireless charging
Bass isn't all that deep, charging case only delivers a little more than one full charge, certain features only work with Android phones
Although their sound quality doesn't wow, the Galaxy Buds are certainly worth considering if you're a Samsung Galaxy or Android phone owner...
Stylish design, Comfortable to wear over long hours, IPX2 certification, Support for wireless charging, Adequately wide sound stage and imaging
Bass output could've been better, Touch controls not reliable, Gear Wear app not supported on iPhone, Photos by Raj Rout, ShareTweet, Facebook Comments
So, should you buy the Galaxy Buds? Well, for the pair's asking price of Rs 9,999, the earphones should certainly be on the top of your wishlist. Not only does the pair cost less than most other truly wireless earphones in the market, but it also offers a...
Excellent audio performance with rich, full bass and bright, well-defined highs, Easy to operate, Solid mic intelligibility in quiet spaces
Poor mic intelligibility in loud scenarios, So-so charging case battery life, Not waterproof
Samsung's wire-free Galaxy Buds earphones deliver fantastic audio performance for a reasonable price, which is enough to overcome some dubious marketing claims...
Bluetooth 5.0, AAC and scalable Samsung codec support, Battery life and wireless charging, Adaptive dualmicrophone array, Ambient Sound mode and touch controls, Compact build
No aptX support, Only IPX2 waterresistance, Lacks internal storage
Without question, these are the perfect complement to the Samsung Galaxy S10 lineup. The earbuds' remarkable battery life separates it from the crowd of true wireless contenders, while its easy-to-operate touch controls make quick commands a breeze. What'...

Impressive range and strong wireless connection, Light and generally comfortable, Good battery life, Wireless charging battery case is convenient,
Touch controls are fiddly, Ambient Sound feature leaves room for improvement, No high water-resistance rating
While Samsung's previous truly wireless earphones tried to stand out with features like coaching and heart rate monitoring – features that most people don't really need in a product of this kind – the Samsung Galaxy Buds stick to the basics. They are a no...

Abstract: Samsung's Galaxy Buds are very late to the race, but they arrived in style. Boasting a plethora of features AirPods users have been asking for, these truly wireless earbuds don't disappoint for the money.Galaxy BudsGalaxy Buds pairing processGalaxy Buds s...
Excellent comfort for all activity, Solid sound quality for wireless earbuds, Compact case with wireless charging, Good Bluetooth and L/R connection, More than adequate battery life
Case only provides 1 full recharge, Touch controls require precise control, "Ambient sound" passthrough is useless

Good battery life within the buds, Small, discreet and generally good looking, Good audio customisation options, Dualmicrophone with ambient sound functions, Wireless Charging
General volume is just a little too quiet, Abysmal regional pricing, Limited charge held in the case
Samsung, with the Galaxy Buds, have far improved on the IconX range and have made a great quality wireless bud, with a great battery life within the buds, making them excellent for day to day usage. This is improved by them both looking discreet but also...
