Buds Live remain my favorite earbuds. With the "Bass" EQ setting and ANC on, they sound significantly better than any other open-ear buds I have tried (including Airpods 3). Additionally, they have *flexible* noise isolation - the further you slide them into your ears, the more noise they block. Also, you can easily replace their batteries, which adds a lot of value since you don't need to buy new buds every 2-3 years. It's a shame they didn't sell well enough to continue the product line. Beans are the best!

[@bruxi78230]

Regarding your point about Samsung wanting to do like Apple. It's really a case of simple math. Upper management at Samsung can easily analyze the Apple device business vs Samsung's. The biggest question is how does Apple earn about 8 times more profit from their sales than Samsung? Next step is upper management goes to the CEO of Samsung Mobile Experience and says what are you doing to close the gap. He is doing the most logical thing.
