Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro | Review

Reviewing the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro, fresh ANC true wireless earbuds whose noise cancelling abilities aren't as strong as some of the best TSW options in 2021. They're an improvement vs the Live and Plus buds, but there are plenty of caveats.

At £219 UK, Samsung's earphones are as expensive as brilliant rivals like the Powerbeats Pro and those Airpods, and the audio quality is certainly just as strong if not better. Bass addicts will maybe not be satisfied, but I loved the Galaxy Buds Pro's clarity and depth of sound across the range. These earbuds are definitely among the greatest for audiophiles.

However, the ANC noise cancellation isn't as effective on voices and other BG noise, while fresh features like the voice detection don't add any real value. The Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro offer quite average battery life as well, with around five hours of use per charge with that ANC active.

Check out my review of other TWS earbud alternatives, such as the Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Pro, to see what your options are. You can buy these Buds from Samsung and other retailers from Jan 29th in the UK, let me know your thoughts below!

I'm using the buds while listening to you about the buds

I've had them for 2 years now and they still work like they are new!
Never had any problems with them and they still sound really good, I definitely recommend them.

"So Samsung really wants to be inside of YOU" What an intro 😂

Every lockdown I seem to be watching even more of your contact dude, thanks for keeping me sane!

Most of review is about features and app options, i would rather talk about the voice quality, music playback, bass, mic quality, ANC etc. Thats what i care about when i am working or having a run.

i just bought my bud pro. I have no problem or complains about it. i think it's the best in the market. Note that everyone has different hearing health status.

I was in a samsung store today to take a look at these and they are really not "chunky" as you say! They are really small, smaller that buds live.

You're the first one to actually review the buds! Finally!

I don't understand how all these review guys don't know about Samsung sound assistant, which has a eq you can fully adjust and fine tune to your liking. Everyone is always like, well the l these buds only give us presets, that's it. WRONG. Which is very limiting obviously. Been using the sound assistant even with jabras, Jaybird and buds plus it dramatically improves the sound on any headphones or buds. USE IT

2:59 'switch back to tablet to continue watching had the chance to test that particular feature"

your sense of humor got me watching the vid till the end. usually, as soon as I get the information I need from a vid, I like and leave. Thank you for the review

[lesliebedu-addo]

Love ur reviews. Watching all the way from Ghana, West Africa...

[noaharcinthiran]

I fucking love this guy, he gives good info and sometimes out of no where drops some mad shit which makes want to pay attention. Great plan.

I love UK reviewers slang, such as, "piddle about". It's almost like a very refined approach. 30 quid. Blow your bloody brains out. Whateva, very detailed review within a quick 10 minutes. Bro, you get it all right. No bugger of complaints here. Bloody hopeful more reviewers follow your method albeit being moist in seconds. Great bloody well job mate!

[ljungan]

I ordered mine today. Hope they're coming soon, need it in my body. The original buds I dropped in Germany while on vacation, so been using some cheap replacements until now. Only thing I hate about the wireless headphones in general, high risk of dropping or forgetting them somewhere ^^

[theblackcroww]

thank you for wearing them for most of the video really gives viewers a great idea of the new look.
( Wanted to update 2 years still using the same buds dropped a few times but still sounding like new!)
I switched to iphone so lost some features but cant space myself from switching buds

[randerins]

Got my pair today and GODDAMN!!! Insane quality and loudness. I'm in love 😍

[maritjansen]

Hi! Thanks for the review, I just got these. I instantly noticed that the opening/closing mechanism of the case feels a bit flimsy and, when fully opened, you can move it about a little. Did I get a get a dud or is this just how it is? The buds+ mechanism feels a lot more sturdy and reliable, by comparison. Would love to hear experiences from others!

What I noticed with Bixby voice activation is that, it requires that you manually set it for voice activation in the settings after every update thereof.

Been looking at these or the soundcores so really looking forward to that video. I used to own the galaxy buds plus however had to sell due to the lack of water resistance (I work outside 6 hours plus per day and use them all day) really like the look of these but that price is higher than I'd have hoped
