Here bro still working fine after 3 years
This guys videos are perfection. I'm a fussy buyer and you absolutely smashed this really impressive mate
Thank for the kind words 🙏
got buds 2 pro why its not comes with other sizes tips? @@techwithbenefits
Yes i agree, he is very good and to the point.
Definitely saved me the hassle of trial and error. I better understand the features. And I got an idea of how they fit. Thank you for the advice. ❤
You are the first youtuber that made the comparison between this 3 buds. For that you have a new subscriber 😊
That was an excellent review. You gave viewers such a detailed, but clearly understandable explanation of the strengths and weaknesses of each bud that their only difficulty will be in deciding which of the features is most important to them. I think I've made my choice, so, thank you very much.
Loves the Buds2 Pro, but really would love it even more if it would sport the wing tips. As always, thanks for your reviews.
Thank you 🙏
still not understanding why they even got rid of those, they were unique looking and comfortable and the fans loved them, the bean design is just so much worse all around
Yeah, the Buds & Buds+ might not have the higher battery life & sound quality, but gadamn do they fit comfortably and stay in. FE & FE+ are a nice callback. I definitely dig the flat touch area.
@@douglaswalker7707Yes they look like crap in your ears. Don't like the design at all.
Finally! Someone with good review i like it a lot that you say your opinion on buds not like everyone say "what do you think" and then i dont know what to pick, perfect and clean review🎉 thank you😊
What a great review. I bought the Buds2 earlier this year and used them mostly for the gym, but without the wing tip, they just fell out of my ears over and over again while working out. I wasn't sure if I wanted to spend as much as what the Buds2 Pro cost, and certainly dont need all the extras as far as software, so having come across the Buds FE, it's nice to see they will serve for the purpose I need them for. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. You've got a new subscriber out of me!
Thank you so much! The Buds FE are seriously great and I enjoyed them a lot!!
Just received the FE and couldn't agree more. This review is spit on , I agree 100%. Just want to add that ANC + passive noise control on the FE is even better than on the 2pro for me since I could never get a good fit with the 2pro
Highly recommend the FE
Absolutely! I'm loving using my Buds FE for all of those reasons you mentioned in your comment! Thank you 🙏
How is the Fe for calls in noisy backgrounds like traffic \ wind \ machines
@@sandeept_soul they are better than the plus, which is already pretty damn good, so you really should have a problem
@@douglaswalker7707 thanks
I got the 2 over the pros because I seen a lot of reviews of people saying they couldn't get a good fit with the pros, so I when with the smaller 2s and couldn't of been more happy, even tho I did have to sacrifice some really cool features but there still really close to each other too. Fit is more important if you can't get a good seal to use all the features. Just give you a idea for what I hear. If I have to active nosie on and I am flying I don't hear the enegings of a plane while I am listening to content. If I am not listening to anything and I just have them in, it's just barely noticeable. If I had the pros I doubt it would be just as good cause of the seal.
I really needed this video! Samsung should pay you for explaining their offering. Brilliant job.
Love your VS, love the TV vs Soundbar comparison. I went with the FE too with price/value.
Thank you! I was debating by FE and Pro2. Initially i was leaned towards pro2 just for the (supposingly) superior sound but your video changed ny mind lol going for FE! Thanks
Why?
yeah I also wonder why
@@suguha5908 I can answer why I'm leaning toward the FE. The FE is less than half the price, offers a remarkable upgrade over the galaxy bud+ (the headphones I'm coming from which fit very well for me) in the form of better sound, ANC, a more reliable mic, and better holding power. I don't believe the pro 2s are genuinely worth more than double the price when I'll probably feel like I'm in a new era of sound just getting the FEs. Now in gonna try and listen to both and see if the difference in audio quality closes the gap but I'd rather dump $100 dollars for earbuds and get 200% of my current experience than spend $230 for 220% of my current audio enjoyment.
Your review is spot on. I own Buds Live, Buds 2, Bose, and Buds Fe... I always grab my Buds Fe... They fit better, are more comfortable, and the sound is just as good as all the others if you ask me, but I am not an audio person. I mainly listen to videos and podcasts, more so than music. It's just not that big of a difference for me when it comes to sound for the things I use my earbuds for... I prefer practically over features. This is the first pair of earbuds I have ever owned that doesn't get uncomfortable after wearing several hours. I can actually fall asleep with these in my ears and wake up them with my ears instead of trying to find them in my bed... I think the noise cancelation is better than any of my other earbuds. Get them for free with the Samsung Ultra 24 order instead of the Samsung Pro version. Great review as always!.. Oh yeah, about the software features, I have never once used any of those features with any of my higher-end earbuds. Who has time to worry about all that? As long as our devices work correctly, sound good, and have a good user experience, that is what matters. Unless of course, someone is one of the rare people who have way too much time on their hands. 🤷♀️
Why you need so many, especially when you're only using the cheapest ones? 😅
Everyone's entitled to their opinion. Even if their opinion is just flat out wrong.
Time is a luxury I hope 1 day I will be able to enjoy. Yet "labs", in my life, is an investment of my time I choose to spend on because, unlike you, music in my ears within any time I'm allowed, brings tranquility, peace, emotions and so much more into my life. And without it, I would not be able to keep the pep in my step from Friday to Friday and still be grounded to my existence.
😅you definitely hit a nerve for me to give this time to write this with your assumption when I gotta get going. But I will copy and save this for myself to read later and see if I wasted energy by overreacting. 😅
Anyway, take care buddy
I am impressed with the clarity of this presentation!
Best review I've seen. Just subscribed! Thank you and keep up with the good job. Cheers from Brazil :)
Excellent review!
Thank you so much for this review!
Thank you for a great review 👍
Your Samsung videos are really good. I really enjoy your video format
Thank you 🙏
Thank you. Very helpful.
Very informative!!! Thanks!!!
Excellent review..Looking to buy my first pair..I'm going to buy the FE based on your review..thanks 👍🏾
Great review, subscribed
Thank you for this comparison. Got all the info I needed.
Thanks for you videos! I got a set of the Buds Fe based on your intial impressions video. I already have the pros and pros2.
These fe's are the perfect headphones for the gym and activities. So comfy and they stay put. Tuning is bass heavy which is perfect for the gym. Just enough noise cancelling. The slightly duller mids and highs are noticable but then again there's no ear fatigue.
Thanks so much 🙏 the only downside to Buds FE is no wireless charging. But it's minor in the grand scheme of things, you can still charge them at least!
Better than pro 2?
What about the water resistance of the FE's? Is it enough when you sweat like a pig during workout and live in a city where it's often raining?
I believe the FE has lower IPX rating which you need to consider for working out because of the sweat and all.
Love this video, helped me choose the right ones, thanks!
Great and so usefull review , thank you
I've watched 3 different comparison videos on this topic and yours was by far the BEST. I love your attention to detail, and I don't get lost/lose track of what product you're talking about. Nice, detailed, systematic review. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Excellent video. Thanks
I already have the Galaxy Buds2 Pro and love them. Was considering changing it the Galaxy Buds FE but after seeing this video and hearing your findings then I am sticking with my Buds3 Pro’s purely because of the software features.
Have just ‘subscribed’ and look forward to hearing more from you about Samsung products
Sh!t where did you get the "buds3 Pro" lol
Yoo wtf where did you buy the buds 3 are you living in 2024?
Awesome video. thanks for all the info. Getting a S24 and a set of FE are free with the phone so i wanted to know if I should retire my old buds and now I know I can. Thanks so much again
Hey man, first time viewer on your channel here. Great vid! I recently did a long term review of the Buds 2 Pro and was very curious about the new FE buds that go back to old designs, your comparison was very extensive. IMO a bit disappointing they didn't use wireless charging in the case. Subbed!
Thanks for the sub!
Thank you for your great review.
Keep these videos up man! Love the information you give
Thank 🙏
I’m impressed on how this guy is able to help me making a choice, many videos just feel like, oh this one’s good, but not better, there is a cheaper and bla bla bla, i don’t really feel like i’m close to making a choice. Otherwise, by watching these i understood really well the pros and cons of each device, and got a real answer at the end. Simple, the fe are overall best, but if you got more to spend and want some fancy features you may get the pro ones.
Great video!!!
Thanks so much for your video 😍😍😍
great comparison mate
Nicely done! Glad I subscribed! I still love my buds 2 pros.. 😊
Would be great if you recorded the buds' microphone in a noisy environment to have that comparison. Personally, I don't usually use earbuds at home.
Regardless, I'll go with FE to have that fit, my ears are large, and my current fin-based buds are perfect for me. Thanks for the vid
Thank you for this video, helped me decide on what to get and went with the fe :)
You will not be disappointed!
Very good review 👍
You have earned a subscriber
. Great video
great job mate
I have the Buds2 Pro & I just got my Buds FE today.
The Buds FE fit in my ear SOOOO much better & more comfortably.
Battery life on my Buds2 Pro were pretty awful, even from the start. I had them replaced & still the same thing.
Sound is nearly identical to me.
Very happy with the Buds FE.
thanks for the feedback, I m very excited now. I m getting my FE today!
@@virulentSI I fell asleep with them in my ear last night. Didn't wake up once from ear pain.
Is it worth getting the buds2 pro for 40 dl new from Samsung ( is a promotion)
@@jadielrmz.
@jadielrmz damn where'd you see this promotion? it's $190 CAD on their website even after a $100 discount so I just went with them yesterday
great video. thanks
Thanks for the awesome video - just bought the buds 2 pro (I know way too late) and they are amazing !
Loved this review...I have the both the 2 and the 2 pro. I use the pros right now, of course, with the 2's as a back up in case I lose them or whatever...anyway I have the FE's ordered and on the way. Got em cause I KNEW the wing tip design would fit better for me like the past model with that design. My only question is do the FE's have the "read text out loud" feature in them cause I really like that with my Pro's. 🤔
Can I buy the 2 off ya?
Thanks Dan!! You should do a buds fe vs buds live video, for the wing tip fanatics considering upgrading (it's me, I'm the fanatic)
I'd love to but unfortunately I don't own a pair of Buds Live's. One thing I'll say is the lives don't really create a seal nor have good ANC (open ANC isn't real ANC lol)
The sound bar is the noticeable difference between the earbuds. Thanks that says it perfectly to make a decision about what is going in my ears! 🕺
Thanks!❤
FE or 2 pro is a very hard desicion. Thanks for the review!
Which one did you choose?
Great video
Great review. Sub earned. Just about to buy the pro2 buuuut seems FE is what i actually need. Think pro2 are bad for gym/running or just not as good. Will i regret getting them if gym will be were i mainly use the m?
With the smallest plugs they fit perfectly 👌 amazing quality, 1st pair of buds. Will leave another comment after taking them to the gym 🙏
Looking forward to hearing how they went?
@techwithbenefits 10/10 for the gym because they fit so well. The noise canceling + sound quality still wows me too.
thanks for comparing the cases too. Im already sold on the FE from before, since I love the wingtips of my OG Buds. I would sacrifice some high end features for the wingtips.
Really helpful...
Great video, thank you so much for your content! QUICK QUESTION: I have the Buds 2, will upgrading to buds 2 PRO be a better noice cancellation / microphone combo?
I live in a noisy place and the Buds 2 is amazing, wondering if I should upgrade to the Pro version
watched your video and it helped me pick the buds2 pro, thanks a bunch 🙂
Thank you for this video. I lost my buds+ and was going to upgrade. From your video i decided to just replace my buds+ with a new pair of buds+. I use them all the time outside and on my bike so i want the wingtips and i charge everything wirelessly.
great detailed review. the only thing i'm left wondering is mic performance in a noisy environment.
I wish Samsung would put wing tips on their entire lineup. My only concern about the FE is the ipx2
Thank you for this video. I bought the Buds Pro 2 but returned them after a few hours. I just could not get a good fit despite trying all the different tips. The better SQ was wasted due to the poor fit.
I've now bought the Fe based on your video. I'm coming from the Buds+ which fit me perfectly so I'm hoping these will do so too.
I'm a little confused what the 360 mic does. Don't all ear buds just use the on board mics they have?
I was torn between 2 and FE. Your review made the choice for me, thank you -- you've got a new subscriber.
Hey man great video thanks! I have one question tough, do they have any noticable latency when watching a video? Like that you see them talking but hear it slightly later? or is it barely noticable
I've had the buds2 for a couple of years now, and I'm still happy with them.
I bought myself a high end set of over the ear headphones from Bowers and Wilkins. Since that purchase, I've found many audio products lacking, including the original Galaxy Buds Pro. I believe that this is due to many audio products lacking support for high resolution sound. The Buds 2 Pro have no such deficiency. Their sound is simply excellent. If you own a Samsung phone and you value high quality audio, then look no further than the Buds 2 Pro!
I found this to be true for me to I also own a few pairs on wired high end headphones from hifi man sennheiser etc. As well as b and o ex which are simply the best but the buds 2 pro are great for the price especially since you can get them for less now.
Same here
honestly - I think that anybody trying to enjoy high res sound with earbuds are kidding themselves.
Thanks for making this video! I'm still using a Galaxy Buds+ and was thinking about upgrading just for the sake of upgrading. These buds have been in use for the past couple of years and work amazingly still.
But now that I've seen this I think I'll keep using them until they stop working. I like the wingtip design but just as importantly I like being able to wirelessly charge my buds overnight.
I have the buds fe and they're just like my Buds plus. Active noise cancelling- NOT. Fit for the FE , I had to put on the larger ear pieces. Looks Fe and Buds+ - I don't see any other than FE can take the wing off. Worth 99.99, not a chance. I'm listening to this on my Buds+, can barely tell any difference with the FE. I was miffed after trying the FE because the noise cancellation just is bad, none existant, but I chose not to return them.
Buds fe has 1 speaker.... and buds + has 2 way speaker, so its worse sound quality, just bass? Thats all i hear, so its not worth it. Buds + is still alive after 3 years...
What I own like atleast 10 pairs, idk how you can only own 1 tf.?!
@@Blu3_777 because whats the point of having 10 pairs
@@privxete4089 when one dies I use other. And they have different use cases.
But honestly I, I, I, im just crying out out for helppp, I think I got earbud addiction 🥺
I had the pro/2Pro and now will definitely go for the FE since my ears are very big and the buds 2 pro only fit well with the large sednaear XL but the pressure in ear is non comfortable. Still im not fine with the price since I get brand new buds 2 pro for 100 bucks and the FE costs the same with less feature. Still have lying around brand new white sealed buds2 pro. Will sell them soon
I'm using the galaxy buds+ since 3-4 years now and they still work perfectly. Looking for a change though. Now my most used feature by far is actually the volume control by double tapping the left (down) or right (up) ear. This so handy for quickly changing volume even if you wear a hoody for example.
Not sure if I missed it, but do the Buds FE have that feature too? How can you control volume with those?
Same way
The Galaxy Buds has had impressive sound quality since the original buds back in 2019
Even before the buds when samsung was doing the Gear IconX's, the sound was still better than the competition at the time.
I'm wearing my Buds2 and I've been listening to them all night at Work and: THE BASS is deep and rich down to 15Hz, also I do listen to Bass Music with them.
I removed the rubberized coating on the buds2 pro. Took a bit of time but they look nice
Dan you are Samsung man thank you for your adivce , ill be getting the Buds FE
Had the Buds 2 and upgraded to the Pro last year. Love the grippy design...helps with it not slipping out of your fingers. Lots of minor premium features that only enthusiasts will use but it's why they're the flagship set. But for regular people that aren't audiophiles, the cheaper ones are just fine and you'll never even notice the differences
The ANC from Buds 2 Pro is much more better then anc of buds 2 and I think that it is one of the most important things for regular people when is looking for buy a earbud. I have Buds2 and Buds2 Pro and I recomend to everyone pay a little more and buy a Buds2 Pro. I have these two Buds.
@@MTulio815is there sound difference cuz i already have buds 2 and planning to upgrade and what about bass ?
This channel is underrated. Anyway great video. Can you tell me the average screen on time of s23 fe, does it last full day ?
Thank you. I know I rate it 😂
The S23 FE can get between 6-8 hours of SOT and can easily last the day!
Thanks❤❤
Nice video!
Can you compare S22 (snapdragon) vs S23 FE?
I mean the main reason I wanna get the fe is the wing tip cuz I loved the buds + cuz of its battery life also comfort but I'm looking for a stronger bass 🔊 so what do u recommend??
Still use a the buds (1) for 5 years, but its time to change :D Thank you for the review.
I'm an old guy with defective hearing. My Buds 2 have adjustable ambient hearing enhancement for both volume & clarity. 1.Perfect for TV listening, without high volume, freaking out other family viewers.
2. Great for picking out a conversation, in a crowded room.
Like the FE for the wingtips, but are the ambient noise controls, exactly the same as the Galaxy 2 buds?
Thanks great video
I am interested in Galaxy buds for exactly the same reason - helping to understand people in a group.
But no reviewer cares about these features. What a pity.
You are the first one who comapre buds 2pro talk about 360° audio recoding...
Ohters neglect it.
This is very useful when you capture video and rewatch later and hear 360 audio means you relive the movement
I love the 2 pro, I got it as a gift, I wished so hard for them because of the features, and I got really surprised by the sound quality, it's amazing, and the voice detection is a most for me, I use it almost all day because of it and to not get bored when doing tasks😂
Do you work out / run? If so, please let me know if they stay secure in your ears! I want the pros, but if FE stays better in your ears, i will go with them.
@nataliekoop3098 yes, I use them to train, they don't even move, maybe if you sweat a lot and if the sweat goes down your ears might me a problem but another big issue, non (imo), hope could make you made a great choice 😁
I had the buds live that I got given for free then traded them in for the buds 2pro and it's been great. Love the matte finish of the buds and inside but preferably none matte finish on the outside.
Samsung with it's buds have been solid. Black and white colours timeless but would love to see more colour options.
Traded em in tf? I mean own the buds2 pro but I also own 3 pairs of buds live I would never trade em in. Trippnn smh
@@Blu3_777 Getting Buds 2 pro cheaper with a free wireless charger was a good deal.
As a buds plus user i love the wingtip design of the FEs but that double tap edge for volume control is a must for me.
Also in my country the 2 pros cost similar if not less The FEs somehow with bank discounts. Will be mainly using this for Gym. Hopefully it fits well in my ear.
Did it fit in your ear? I am a buds plus user as well.
Could you help with info on which of the FE or Pro works better for zoom/microsoft teams video calls? I always have an issue with my audio clarity for recipients on the other side. Or my own voice at my end is muffled when the ANC is on
Would the FE be a big sound improvement over the old Buds plus?
I have the Galaxy buds pro but they just don't fit. And they hurt my ears trying to smash them in. They do sound good though.
12:20 just a note, to get that to work consistently, you have to double tap from behind your ear. I'm currently using the buds+ so not sure if it's the same for the newer models.
Thanks for the video!
How is the Bluetooth signal range on them (all three models) in case you get physically far away from the phone with the Buds in your ears?
I have just recently received the FE buds, love the overall sound quality and the fit. My 9nly problem is that I have an iPhone 13 and I downloaded the Samsung buds app, but I can’t get it to recognise it, so I can’t go into the settings and change anything. Hopefully either Samsung or apple will come up with a solution for this minor issue. I exchanged points for them, and from what I’ve seen of the price, I got a real bargain. My points dollar value wouldn’t have been enough, probably only would have given me about 75% of the money. It looked like it was a special item that was limited, so they’ve probably stopped that particular item for that price, so I’m very happy with them. Hopefully I’ll work out how to get them to work with my iPhone, or either of the companies will bring out an update to fix my app issues. Good video by the way, shows that for such a reasonable priced set of buds, they are actually very good.
Where did you get em them. Becareful they might be fake if the app doesn't recognize them
@@Blu3_777 , they were sent by Harvey Norman and I got them using my flybuy points.ive looked over them and the numbers and serial numbers match. It might be that because I have an iPhone and not a Samsung phone that there’s an incompatibility.
On Samsungs website. It says the galaxy buds iOS app isn't supported. You can only use Bluetooth with them. Which is strange why have an app for iOS but doesn't work
I'm glad you made this video because I am hung up on the FE or Pro 2 price isn't an issue since they are in a range I can afford, but the FE has got me with it's wing tips, price point, and not being that different from my buds 2 which I lost the left one since I use the left one the most since it stay in my ear the longest than the right one. the Pro 2 is also pulling me towards it since it 1up the buds 2 and I am wonder how long and that stay in the ear against the FE..... with that black spot on the end to helps it stay in longer. I'm still racking my head since they are low priced and both are good, but thanks for the video.
I am currently using the G Buds2. Thinking about upgrading to the G Buds 2 Pro, however the G Buds FE with its lower price is something to consider. Good comparison Review Tech With Benefits.
Excellent analysis Thank you
Been testing Sony Wf-1000xm4, Sennheiser Momentum TW3, but i still like how the Buds2 Pro sounds and more comfort in my ears.
Which has better bass out the Three
@@Blu3_777 Sony Wf-1000xm4.
CMIIW
@@TomyJaya365 weird I thought my buds2 pro had better bass. Thanks for the response
I do wish you would have discussed battery time. I still hv my original Buds Pro that I love but one is starting to act up a bit...they're old so, I expect failure to occur. Meantime, I've always been a little disappointed that playing music yields about 3 hours. I hope these newer models do a bit better - I've decided to snag the Buds2 Pro bc music quality and ambient control are top needs for me...and I do love the voice detect on my current Pro's - real handy. But - the rich sound with deep bass? That's the kicker for me.
I have an earbuds edge hack for the B2P! Just flick the top of your ear instead of touching the Buds, works so much better!
I just got the FE and for the price over $100 cheaper they are hands down my new favorite. And they actually stay in my ear, the Buds Pro2 always fall out. And I bought the comply foam tips for my buds FE and they almost sound as good as the Pro2.
I am looking into a new set of buds after I lost my Airpods of 4 years. One thing I love about the Airpods, they don't talk to you when you first put them in. I have to ask, do the FEs greet you with some voice or is it a simple chime to say they connected?
Which buds shall i buy ? Buds 2 pro or buds fe ?
Am I just crazy or does the FE handle wind noise better with the ANC? The ANC itself is stronger on the Pro but if I am not just smoking crack then the ANC on the FE is more useful as soon as you step outside.
I have the buds plus and they work just fine i love them
I just got the FE in an offer with a new phone, I didn't realise they don't support wireless charging until I opened the box. Absolutely bizarre, considering that means that you can't power share from your phone to your buds. I LOVE the wingtip though.
