Good idea. I am fine with the silicone tips, but I never tried the foam tips. Maybe I'll give them a test drive

[@SamtheCanuck]

Mike O'Brien I think it’s a good idea I looked for a KZbin video that showed the comply tips with the galaxy Bud’s or Bud’s + and couldn’t find a single one. Since they make a set of tips specifically for these buds I feel like that would be worthwhile content as I suspect these will be pretty popular.

Lost Remnant I ended up scrapping the foam tips found the stock tips more comfortable. Might be the angle the comply tips went into my ear.

[@achilles4872]

In my opinion you as a tech KZbin reviewer are more objective than any other tech reviewers whom many have their own agenda to downgrading any non US tech products. Especially for Samsung brands. I've seen many tech reviewers tone down the greatness of any Samsung products so that they could pinpoint some flaws that underlying just how good the devices are actually as a whole unit. You my friend, are an absolute honest and objective tech reviewers stand out among the rest. Try to keep this mindset from now onwards. I'm glad there are people like you on the tech world. I'll cheer on your great future, good luck.

[@gersonrendon2188]

Just what I was looking for. I've been tempted to buy airpods for so long now but I hated the stems, how they fit my ears and the lack of isolation. Basically just wanted them because I wanted a pair of reliable earbuds. But then these pop out cheaper with better battery, wireless charging, interchangeable ear tips and ear hooks (unlike the cheap Xiaomis I've been rocking) and great music controls. I will be buying them. Thanks for your review.

[@tusharaggarwal9115]

I want to buy them..... I am really worried if they fit same as akg earphones that came in box with s10 coz they fuck my ear canals and i don't like the sound quality.... which i am sure will be better with these one but really concerned about how it will fit

[@johnboy8705]

Hey Mike is the ambient sound better than on the regular buds due to having extra microphones??

[@geraldmills6361]

Ambient mode works great. No lag. Plus my battery life last more than 11 hours. Worth every penny.

[@stiphiny]

First time wireless earbuds user here.. Great job on this video. Helped me decide what to buy as a first timer... Pretty painstaking process of choosing which wireless earbuds to buy considering how many super cheap to very expensive options are out there. Keep up the good work...

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Thanks! And yeah you're telling me. I have dozens of earbuds that I try every month. Some are cheap, some are nice. I understand how confusing it probably is for a first time buyer to find a pair that suits your needs

[@chaikagaz]

I bought a few as a first timer. I have samsung galaxy buds as entry level, sony wf1000xm3 which is mid tier that i like the best cause it sounds amazing and has noise cancellation. Then for high tier i got the sennheiser true momentum wireless they sound the best but suck at everything else like call quality, battery drain, and aethetic.

[@albertli5491]

Thanks Mike for the information! I just got one this week and still learning about it!

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Enjoy your new buds!

[@stevem5787]

Have you ever listened to Shure 535 or the 846? To me, those set the standard for sound quality for ear buds that are not wireless. If so, how do the Sennheiser Momentum 2s sound in comparison?

[@kepagu]

try recording at 60fps and slow it down to 30 when doing b-rool.

[@gregjacobs189]

I use bass boost, I think it matches the true audio better than normal, do most people use dynamic though? I just want the closest to true audio

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

I think it depends a lot on the style of music you listen to. I listen to music that sounds best with dynamic but bass boost is good for some of my music too

[@shiningdawn8578]

The bass boost is too bloated for me. Everything else is very dulled, in order to enhance the bass. I've been trying to get used to the Buds+ for several days, and I just can't cope with how bad they sound to me. The mids are so strong, and sound stage so narrow, that it feels like they're being forced into my ear. The mids are just physically painful to hear. The bass is present, but has the impact of a wet noodle being dragged behind the mids. I won't be able to return them for a few more days, so will give them a few more tries.

[@Sabianism]

@@shiningdawn8578 I'd recommend going into your phones EQ settings and adjusting stuff around. As a musician I can say these are some of the best buds I've ever used, wireless and non wireless. You just have to know what you're doing. I'd recommend putting it on dynamic in the bud settings on the app. And going on your settings in phone and doing custom and putting everything up a half db up from 0.

[@phanindramvr2215]

Hi, how do you find the music with these? I see reviews that are pretty mixed, some say it flats, some say its rich. How would the average, everyday consumer describe the audio?

[@ActionHeinz]

Got mine for under $100 new and sealed. Samsung bundles these at the moment (where I come from) with smartphones and tablets. So people who don't want to use them sell them separately for really low prices. They are great, functionality, sound, feel... Sure there are better ones out there but the complete package for $100 is an absolute no brainer!

[@eluminaryxarrais7735]

These are the first fully wireless earbuds that have the battery life I need to even consider giving them a chance. Most of the others are in the 4 to 6 hour range which is just not enough to get through a shift which is what I primarily need them for. I bought them and I'm quite pleased from them I'm moving over from the oneplus bullets Wireless V2. I'm getting pretty close to the 11 to 12 hours battery life per charge I'm betting you're getting less because you're using ambient sound more than I do. I've noticed with that on the battery does drain substantially quicker

[@the1techguy579]

Tnx for the review! Love it! One question is the fit the same as the previous version?

Thanks! Unfortunately, I don't have any games on my phone to test with. I have been so focused on my channel lately that I have not played a mobile game in a very long time. Otherwise, I would definitely test this out for you!

[@zckom]

Great reviews, I feel like wanna get one for myself. Can you comment on the game mode?

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

I actually didn't notice any lag between A/V while testing there, and when I switch into gaming mode, I really don't see much of a difference honestly. Maybe someone else noticed something? I and just speaking based on using my buds with video

[@lightstorm6652]

Have you tried the super hearing ambient sound option in the labs settings and also the gaming mode if that improves the ambient sound delay?

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

I have and the super ambient mode is weird for me (I have excellent hearing, so the only situation where I would potentially find that useful would be if I am working out and listening to loud music, but still need to hear quiet ambient sounds. Otherwise it sounds more like a karaoke machine with very high gain. The gaming mode did not make a noticeable difference for me in video, but I do not play enough games to have tested it out

[@chantiacalhoun9147]

[@fredericktodd5789]

I got my Buds+ yesterday. Still on the fence about the Bass. But sometimes I like to listen to music on my laptop. When I paired them to my laptop the controls wont work, no pause/play, volume up/down or anything. Im thinking its because they run with the app. Any thoughts on this?

[@Shine-zg4gg]

I have a surface pro 6 and my bud+ works just fine with it

[@DeneF]

Thanks Mike. Nice, clean and informative as usual. A question if I may? Being an older man and hearing frequency changes for men as we get older, I need lots of treble but I only listen to spoken word, never music. Bearing these things in mind. Do you think they might be worth a punt? I already have many pairs but I surprisingly like the reviews for a Samsung product for once. Many thanks from England.

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Hey Dene, I think these would be worth a try for you. With the tuning and DSP, these have better mids and highs than the previous earbuds, but you may want to mess with the EQ. I noticed that of the 6 different EQ presets, dynamic was the only one I really liked. If you are not worried about size, aesthetics, or features as much, then you may also want to give the Anker Soundcore Liberty 2 Pro earbuds a shot. They have more EQ options and decent mids as well

Did you get 'em? I'm about to get those next month !

[@paulscott6463]

@@Mr.Lara01 yes, and they are pretty good, I'm still not convinced they will stay in place when I'm on the treadmill but il get back to you on that once I have tried them a few times

[@TejaKarlapudi]

Can I talk to Google Assistant by Just and and fold by leaving the phone locked?

[@szavrski]

Can it be paired with two devices simultaneously (e.g. laptop and mobile phone)?

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

These do have multipoint connectivity, but it is limited to only devices with BT 5.0

Question: The tick watch pro 4g LTE I have EE will I still get LTE but lose 4G or since I don’t give vodaphone I completely miss the LTE feature?

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Unfortunately I'm not sure how to help with that :(

[@Hmmmm521]

Mike O'Brien no worries!

[@jazzmanofjax]

Overall, Spot on with your review! Very well done!

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Thanks, Keith! I am really glad you liked the review! What do you think of these earbuds?

[@jazzmanofjax]

@@MikeOBrienMedia Even thought I had the galaxy buds 1 gen, I bought them for the sound boost and ambient sound has gotten very much better. These and my Sony Wf-1000xm3's are the best for every situation!

[@jazzmanofjax]

@@MikeOBrienMedia Also, I found that listening 50% or lower I like the Bass boost setting. What do you think?

[@araffaelegmw]

great review i hopefully have a pair of these coming in a month or two as they were included with my new samsung galaxy a52 5g

[@nopiatl]

I see several reviews of these head new Galaxy buds I just want to know are they loud er do they have more Bass

[@kelvinrios2054]

Yes.

[@geefaerie8556]

Why do mine only last for 2 hrs and they're new

[@_fiftyseven_]

Then I gotta switch from my galaxy buds. Are the galaxy buds+ available in black color?

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Yep, they call it cosmic black!

[@MikhaelHld]

Great review!

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Thank you so much!

[@AbhishekSingh-vh3jj]

Very nice work bro. Keep it up. Cheers!!!

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Thank you so much! I appreciate the positive feedback :)

Mike have tried these in windy conditions and with passthrough set to medium or higher, I didn’t try low, wind speed over 20 mph renders passthrough almost unusable, they need to sort this. So battery in real life is about 40 mins longer than the Jabra 75t’s in real life

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

Passthrough will do that with any earbuds from what I've seen. It's just the nature of the wind blowing over a microphone. I leave my passthrough off on windy days

I upgraded to the Galaxy S20+ here in the UK and as part of the promotion currently running until tomorrow, I will be getting a pair of the Galaxy Buds+ for free alongside my phone. I currently have a Samsung phone but I've been using the 1st gen Apple AirPods that I've had since they came out alongside it. I've always preferred Apple earphones because those rubber tips on other earphones, never stay in my ears regardless of the brand or tip size! My AirPods have seen better days however so if these Galaxy Buds+ don't fit my ears properly and constantly fall out, I'll be getting myself some Huawei Freebuds 3 as they are similar to the design of the AirPods and have seen some great reviews on them.

[@crud3lis]

I'm planning to get them, but the one thing I don't like is how glossy the Plus are. The original Buds look way better in my opinion.

[@MikeOBrienMedia]

You may want to consider getting a skin or case from Amazon! Any case for the original Galaxy Buds should fit these as well

[@niekw01]

I always wanted it to be glossy

[@cazterk]

redmi tws airdots?

[@michaeljohnson7785]

corona?

[@NicholasWhiteley]

+Mike O'Brien do you think these can compete with the call quality if Plantronics Voyager 5200?
