Pros and cons

According to our earbuds expert
  • Active noise canceling mutes distracting ambient noise and white noise.
  • When you take the earbuds out of your ears, the music automatically pauses.
  • Noise canceling earbuds don't drown out ambient noise as much as noise-canceling headphones.
Product Expert earbuds

Description

Take the Galaxy Buds Live with you when you travel and enjoy your favorite music in silence. The earbuds have noise canceling, which reduces ambient noise. This way, you hear less of your surroundings and more of your music. When you take the earbuds out of your ears, the music pauses automatically. Do you put them back in your ears? Then the music continues. This way, you won't miss a single note. With the noise canceling turned on, the earbuds last 5.5 hours on a full battery. When the earbuds are empty, you charge them in the charging case. After 15 minutes of charging, you can use them for another 100 minutes.

Also for iOS

With Samsung earbuds, you can also listen to your favorite music on your iOS device. You can easily and wirelessly connect the earbuds to your iPhone via Bluetooth.

Noise canceling

The Buds Live have special microphones that measure and analyze ambient noise. Based on this analysis, an anti-noise is produced. This anti-noise ensures that you hear less of your surroundings.

Note: Samsung does include a charging cable, but no charger. Use your current accessories, or purchase them separately.

Long searched for earbuds that are not in the ear canal. These usually go out after half an hour for me, and I have to push them back again, or they start to irritate. That seems to be more common, but still personal. Not such a design for me anymore. Although these earbuds sit against your ear canal, they remain on the outside. They clamp with a rubber in your ear. It took some getting used to, but the adjustable ear rubbers offer a solution. I now have a large rubber on the right, and a small one on the left, because otherwise the left would pinch (and with me even one ear is apparently not the same as the other).
Sound is really good, much better than expected with this design. With the Wearable app on a Samsung phone, you can adjust it entirely to your own wishes with different sound profiles. Bass is really punchy, the highs are also nice and crispy. I mainly listen to classical music and after reading several reviews I had my doubts, but this doubt was immediately removed the first time. Wonderful sound stage. They are of course not high-end over-ear plugs, but I don't think I've heard such beautiful sound quality with true-wireless earphones before.
I also use the earbuds on my PC, mainly when doing video conferencing. Paired the buds with the PC and the phone. Too bad you can't connect both at the same time (pair!), but you can easily connect the earbuds to your PC via the bluetooth menu on the PC, even if they are already connected to your phone. You don't have to pair again.
Audio quality of the microphone may also be there. Only had positive reactions so far.
In my opinion, touch control could be slightly better, because when you want to move the earbuds, you quickly activate the touch control by accident. This can lead to skipping to the next number, or in a bad case, to the unwanted end of your phone call.

If, like me, in-ear monitors (those earbuds that you have to push all the way into your ear canal) just don't feel comfortable with, your only option so far has been the non-Pro version of the Apple AirPods. With the Galaxy Buds Live from Samsung, you now have something you didn't have before: choice! Do you think the battery life of the Airpods is a bit too short? Try this one. Is the sound of the AirPods not quite to your liking? Try this one! Do you not find the AirPods completely comfortable? Try this one! By the way, this is really the party piece of the Buds Live: they are great and they just stay put (at least for me, but everyone has different ears of course).

Cons? Ehmmm... the equalizer in the software only has presets that you can't adjust yourself. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
For the rest, in my opinion, they are the perfect earplugs for anyone who does not like in-ear monitors. I haven't been this happy with a present for myself in a long time!
