Galaxy Buds review: everything but the basics

Ғылым және технология

Samsung’s Galaxy wireless buds were our shiny gleam of hope for cutting the headphone cord. The Galaxy Buds feel like feathers, they’re easy to sit in your ears, and they seem to get Samsung’s claimed six hours of battery life on a charge (with seven more in the case). The small form factor allows the case to easily fit in my pocket, but the problems set in when you begin to use them.

    I agree.. especially on the dynamic mode - the audio quality is true and not too saturated or fuzzy from bass. It sounds true to the audio mix which apple and others blow out of proportion with bass. It's not all about bass people 🙄 and idk if the update mine received today did anything to the mic but I called my girlfriend within the first hour of receiving them and she said I sounded fine and I was outside sooooo.. who's paying you to do a bad review? 😂

    The audio quality for music is actually amazing. It's well balanced and true audiophiles will appreciate the dynamic setting on the EQ. Bass is right where it needs to be. I mean if you feel the need to damage your ears then so be it. Samsung did a great a great job of reproducing music like the artist intended. If the track was mixed and mastered well, then the Galaxy Buds will accentuate this. Similarly, if the song was mixed and mastered poorly, then the buds will expose that as well. However, I do agree that the microphone needs an update.

    Completely disagree with you. Just don't understand how you can miss the mark this badly. My Galaxy Buds have never dropped a connection from my s10 since the day they shipped to me, and in the several weeks I've had them I expected the sound to cutout given where I live, but with nearly 80ft and three walls in between me and my phone and the buds haven't lost connection once. I also came from the Jabra 65t, and I can tell you right now, the difference in sound quality is nearly imperceptible. The drivers they both utilitize are practically the same size, so don't know why you would even think that. The bass on the Jabra may be a little deeper, but then again the buds are louder in my opinion and if I had to scale it the Jabra's base would be a 9 and the Galaxy Buds would be an 8. Lastly as someone who goes on runs downtown no-one has ever complained about call quality or sound cutting out when I wear my buds. Yeah the ambient sound is a little tinny compared to the Jabra 65t but I can tell you that I certainly here a lot more around me than with he Jabra. It's like the distance the mics can pick up noise is extended farther than my 65t used too. All in all I just don't agree with many of your points if any at all. The recorder was a nice idea, but even during the comparison outside I could still hear you clearly on the buds and I channeled the sound through my phone speaker to really test it. I think you have a really nice review style; your presentation is concise and not super wordy. Nice camera work and succinct writing. I just don't agree with your review, but that doesn't mean it wasn't well constructed. Hopefully I'll find common ground in your future work.

    Larry J if you go back, this review says "I don't like these, they're a failure" and then 95% of the review is positive things. They fit well, feel great, good isolation, sound is definitely on par, convenient. But the mic is slightly worse. She never says anything about being overpriced because they aren't, they are underpriced. I used to use airpods and if those weren't overpriced then nothing is. These have more features, better fit and isolation and the same or better on every else as airpods, for $70 less. The way she made this video seems manipulative.

    I purchased the galaxy buds 3 days ago and I totally fell in love with them! I think the audio quality is good (mostly compared to that of the headphones I used to use). The mic isn't great but I think it's not that bad,still haven't tried it for phone calls though. It seemed pretty good to me after using it for ambient sound (which is a really useful feature for me). The battery life is awesome,they always last so long. The only thing I complain about is that they're not that comfortable in my ears but I can deal with it.
