- Reviewing the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro, fresh ANC true wireless earbuds whose noise cancelling abilities aren't as strong as some of the best TSW options in 2021. They're an improvement vs the Live and Plus buds, but there are plenty of caveats.
At £219 UK, Samsung's earphones are as expensive as brilliant rivals like the Powerbeats Pro and those Airpods, and the audio quality is certainly just as strong if not better. Bass addicts will maybe not be satisfied, but I loved the Galaxy Buds Pro's clarity and depth of sound across the range. These earbuds are definitely among the greatest for audiophiles.
However, the ANC noise cancellation isn't as effective on voices and other BG noise, while fresh features like the voice detection don't add any real value. The Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro offer quite average battery life as well, with around five hours of use per charge with that ANC active.
Check out my review of other TWS earbud alternatives, such as the Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Pro, to see what your options are. You can buy these Buds from Samsung and other retailers from Jan 29th in the UK, let me know your thoughts below!
I've had them for 2 years now and they still work like they are new!
Never had any problems with them and they still sound really good, I definitely recommend them.
that's really cool and all!, but I do not recommend them. they're quite annoying. mine have problems with literally anything and I bought them 7 months ago
@@ch0mb3r Got mine today and it's a REAL game changer! I hope I won't run into issues eventually
@@randerins glad for you. Also hoping for you to not get into those bugs or problems!. now, I'll point out some problems that I had
Poor connection, always powering off randomly, tried everything but they still were falling, poor battery life, didn't charged NOTHING, Samsung Wearable App detected the earphones but didn't wanted to connect. And a lot more. But getting that off of the way, hope yours works perfectly. Take care, mate 🫂
I'm using the buds while listening to you about the buds
What do ya think, are they really as good as people say? Do they fall out for you? Experienced any issues?
Same.. hehe
@@NIKHILMARWAH just ordered them, can't waiitttt
@@martyboi5609 No. When I wear the buds, the buds just stick there with no problem. I have very sweaty ears sometimes, still, they don’t fall off. I play games with it and the quality is still very good, but with a little problems with the Hands-Free mode.
Ok thank you I was kind of second guessing my order for a sec but you just gave me peace of mind
"So Samsung really wants to be inside of YOU" What an intro 😂
😂😂😂
🤣🤣
Aight.... 😟😂
That and "I was moist in seconds" definitely set the tone.
Flattering, and quite uncomfortable.
Every lockdown I seem to be watching even more of your contact dude, thanks for keeping me sane!
His contact do be good
@@Aziz69420 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i just bought my bud pro. I have no problem or complains about it. i think it's the best in the market. Note that everyone has different hearing health status.
Is it worth it rn for 100$?
I was in a samsung store today to take a look at these and they are really not "chunky" as you say! They are really small, smaller that buds live.
You're the first one to actually review the buds! Finally!
Na ah, I've seen reviews yesterday
People had reviews a week ago
2:59 'switch back to tablet to continue watching porno.....haven't had the chance to test that particular feature"
We don't believe you Tech Spurt lol! 😂😁
Good to see my reputation precedes me!

I don't understand how all these review guys don't know about Samsung sound assistant, which has a eq you can fully adjust and fine tune to your liking. Everyone is always like, well the l these buds only give us presets, that's it. WRONG. Which is very limiting obviously. Been using the sound assistant even with jabras,Jaybird and buds plus it dramatically improves the sound on any headphones or buds. USE IT
I fucking love this guy, he gives good info and sometimes out of no where drops some mad shit which makes want to pay attention. Great plan.
Most of review is about features and app options, i would rather talk about the voice quality, music playback, bass, mic quality, ANC etc. Thats what i care about when i am working or having a run.
your sense of humor got me watching the vid till the end. usually, as soon as I get the information I need from a vid, I like and leave. Thank you for the review
Same😭 loved his personality and his sense of humour too, made the video so engaging
I love UK reviewers slang, such as, "piddle about". It's almost like a very refined approach. 30 quid. Blow your bloody brains out. Whateva, very detailed review within a quick 10 minutes. Bro, you get it all right. No bugger of complaints here. Bloody hopeful more reviewers follow your method albeit being moist in seconds. Great bloody well job mate!
Hi! Thanks for the review, I just got these. I instantly noticed that the opening/closing mechanism of the case feels a bit flimsy and, when fully opened, you can move it about a little. Did I get a get a dud or is this just how it is? The buds+ mechanism feels a lot more sturdy and reliable, by comparison. Would love to hear experiences from others!
Same here, I'm always careful not to break it. But the sound quality and the quality of the actual buds are amazing, I love it
Yeah same plus I've had to get mine repaired as the 1st day I got then they had a loud buzzing sound that wouldn't go away
its been almost 2 yrs for me (If it comes to be Feb 2023) and also i have used the Buds plus before i got the buds pro as a gift but its how it is man. Just need to admit what it is BUT it has ANC and the Speak to chat on which it doesnt have on the Buds plus and longer batter life than the galaxy buds plus and more so it might be better than the buds plus
I greatly appreciate the frank, honest, and "real" review of the product. The main reason for the purchase is trying to hear my soft-spoken friends in the noisy coffee shop they insist on patronizing..
What I noticed with Bixby voice activation is that, it requires that you manually set it for voice activation in the settings after every update thereof.
Got my pair today and GODDAMN!!! Insane quality and loudness. I'm in love 😍
How is the bass
thank you for wearing them for most of the video really gives viewers a great idea of the new look.
( Wanted to update 2 years still using the same buds dropped a few times but still sounding like new!)
I switched to iphone so lost some features but cant space myself from switching buds
Just got the buds pro loving them so far
@@theblackcroww hey are you still loving them, have you experienced any issues?
@@martyboi5609 I am the sound is great the charge on them are great as well. Was worth the buy imo
@@theblackcroww thank you
I ordered mine today. Hope they're coming soon, need it in my body. The original buds I dropped in Germany while on vacation, so been using some cheap replacements until now. Only thing I hate about the wireless headphones in general, high risk of dropping or forgetting them somewhere ^^
Whats your review?
I really like them. Blocks out a lot of real world sound. Have been using them near daily since I got them, and they still works like new! Really good sound in my opinion and some nice features that I use regularly. Comfortable, but have to press them in a bit when I'm running or they'll most likely fall out.
@@ljungan96 how is the sound compare to other premiums like Sennhieser
Great review! For switching to a different device, does it need to first disconnect from the previous device? Or is it possible to switch just by choosing from the new device without disconnecting from the previous device, same as the buds plus?
They switch automaticly if your phone starts ringing for example
@@A2mag Sorry I should have made myself clearer. I meant to ask about switching between a galaxy and a non-galaxy (say a laptop) device..
@@sudiptodolui1059 Oh, my guess is probably not
You have to put the buds in pairing mode
DO love your reviews.. keep up the good work!!
Been looking at these or the soundcores so really looking forward to that video. I used to own the galaxy buds plus however had to sell due to the lack of water resistance (I work outside 6 hours plus per day and use them all day) really like the look of these but that price is higher than I'd have hoped
Battery life is a lot less than on the Pluses, but might be worth the trade. I have to agree on the price though - I'd wait until they drop in price.
@Joel Cairns unfortunately buddy they aren't really what I'm looking for. I'm a postman you see so the anc is probably the least important part as I can't have it on anyway
@@adamheppenstall3801 this or wait for the leaked AirPod pro 2 or normal airpods imo. Their are budget options but I’m not too familiar with those. But any choice would be fine. Just don’t buy raycons
Getting my buds pro free with new s21 ultra, thanks for the great info and love the humour in your videos 😊
Hey, which color did you pre order? Had a tough time to choose.
@@kumaramouktik I got the silver, got a great deal on mine but only could choose the phantom silver
Got the silver ultra but got the black buds pro
Haha - just got mine today as my free gift for my new S22 Ultra.
I'm excited about this
Not only a great review but great wit too ;-)). You've got a new subscriber
It is the best buds🔥🔥🔥
No 😅
No no
Yes it is have very good sound quality . It is best😎
@@stunningdesigns2278 Can u tell me why u disagree buddy ?
Considering the majority of us are getting it free with our S21s I doubt we're going to be too picky but still great knowing roughly what to expect nonetheless. Also does anyone know if those of us that preordered will get the freebies with the phone or after 30 days?
"Majority of us"? I had to pay for mine, since I own the One Plus 7 Pro and not the Samsung Galaxy S21.
@@shyamal903 well obviously lol
@@abhayrajeev7216 Well obviously what?
I was thoroughly entertained! Thank you 🙂
Just received those Buds Pro for 'free' as part of Samsung's offer 'Buy a Galaxy S22'. So they're good enough to me
Me too. Yay to freebies! Lol
Watching as I pre ordered the new phone and these are coming with it cxxxxx
Great review. Good humour. Proper nice points to consider.
Ive had mine for over 2 years and like them a lot and whilst I think the sound quality is excellent and ANC is amazing personally, the fit is not amazing as when I often strain my head/neck (either laughing or grimacing when lifting weights) they feel like they slide out. I also believe that memory foam tips are essential for the ANC as well as fit. However, memory foam is not very durable, and they often need replacing.
I was just wondering ...your reaction and your head when you used the ambient mode 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just bought these for 140 on sale at my local Costco have not opened the Box so I just wanted to say thank you very much for this review
Hi I have a question are you able to use these buds when taking phone calls?
Love your reviews. Spot on ☘️👍
Not sure if it was mentioned, but can you control volume with the earbuds touch?
Yes you can
Thank you so much for this review. I wanna get these headphones. How long is battery life? Can you use them while receiving calls
Are these good quality headphones cuz every pair of headphones I get breaks
These could have been perfect. The size seems a game changer.
Dame. I wants some buds but what I want does not seem to be on the market currently.
They're 80 euros right now on Amazon
@@AccidentalGenius158 £100 is a good price. I've used these a little for a trip recently. I was on a very loud bus playing music I didn't like plus a few drunk people sitting behind me. The ANC cut out all the noise it was amazing. If your on a plane you may as well be in a library its do good.
I got the galaxy buds pro man they are better than the normal buds bud my best investment is the galaxy watch 4 love your vids
I love the sound quality and features of my buds, but I'm considering returning them because I have small ears and these earbuds refuse to stay in. I can sit them in and wiggle into place all I can but they don't "pop into place" and fall out, regardless of if I'm moving or sitting still. They also move and fall out if I talk or yawn or chew. I love the sound quality but I can't do anything to keep them from falling out.
I'm afraid get it then that will happen to me too
@@xboxgamerz22 get a pair at a place that gives you a timed return frame for free returns. Buy, try, and return if they don't work well for you.
Same here the sound quality is great and the features are cool but these won't stay in worth a shit . I don't even need to be doing much and they'll pop out or if I talk or smoke they'll do the same then
Had the same problem but I was using the wrong size silicone tips it is working perfectly now.
I fav tech youtube channel. Keep it up man
Love the review. Awesome work. Could you also please review the new jbl live pro plus as well!
Thank you :D
So, they can double as a hearing aide for us old geasers?
Like always great review. Like your style of videos.
Thanks for the review.
Would You go for this or would You save $100 and get the Tronsnart Apollo bold?
Thanks
Here's the bottom line on the pros and cons on these earbuds. I’ll keep it simple. The biggest con on this model is that they DO NOT fit in your ears securely! Unlike the Samsung ear buds plus which have the fins that make it fit more securely, these DO NOT! There a little bit heavier and with no wing support, they tend to pop out of your ears easier so don't think you can take these to the gym on the treadmill, or work in the garden sweating, and then when you bend over to pick something up, one may pop out of your ear! This has happened to me allot!. Now if your just sitting down, walking or not doing anything that jars your head and sweat, you’ll be fine. That’s the biggest con. The biggest pro is that they sound totally awesome! Unbelievable low ends, mids, and high frequency, and the noise cancellation feature is totally awesome! There ya go!
Just change the tips
@@cw1161 Just the tip.

"Porn or what ever" caught me off guard
I've got some coming as a free gift after purchasing my s21 and am in two minds whether to just sell them on. I've been rocking with a pair of Beats X's for a couple of years and they're okay. I am a hip hop head so feel the comment about the bass alone should be enough to warrant a sell on job tbf, the most important thing being your music sounding good
When you said Portishead I died, triphop and Alternate downtempo are my jam. Got these free with my tab s8+ can't wait for them to arrive
i really love your review, educating and funny
but i have a question, dose it feel like you're in a bubble like the first Samsung buds or feels like your wearing nothing like the iPod pro? this is really important to me b4 i buy one. i cant stand the bubble effect it gave on the galaxy buds. please response
8:03 lockdown has been rough
I guess it is not the Samsung's earbuds that can finally replace my old and trustworthy IconX (2018) for hardcore exercises and running in hot weather or raining days . If it can't stay in my ears then it is not good for working out. Even if it is IPX7 .
@@MiracleWarriors how do you know they will not stay on you ear
@@OPTIMISTICO that is the problem. I don't know if they will really stay still in my ears of I go running with then in a very hot summer day. Some reviewers have been complaining that they don't stay still ... I got a very good earbuds from Sony ...extra bass 700 and it does not have a rubberized wing tip and so when sweating they want to pop out of my ears. So I use then for casual use now and went back to my IconX(2018) that is fully rubberized and don't fall down ...
Unfortunately we can't test the Buds Pro before buying. Unless my IconX breaks ,I will not risk buying a high IP certified earbuds Buds that half the reviewers said it is more for casual use. The plastic case of the earbuds can stay still on the ears until you start sweating like hell.
Maybe if I buy a new Samsung's phone this ear I will get the Buds Pro for free and will test it by self for running.
Nice review. Looking for a suggestion - which one do you prefer oppo enco x vs galaxy buds pro?
No question, the Oppo Enco looks like a clown compared to the Galaxy Buds Pro
I would like answers for following questions..
Are these good for running and exercise ?
Also how good it is for office work calls?
The first generation Galaxy Buds is so good for running n exercise. This one shud be even better
Thanks for a review, what you think what the best TWS for a sound call (microphone)?
My choice on bose tws
Just got my buds pro and also the buds 2(haven't tried yet) upgraded fron the plus and the features and mic quality🤩🤩🤩
are you planning on doing a review of the Samsung Flex 2 any time soon. I already have the flex and wondering if its worth the upgrade?
Thanks friend, they also worked with my iPhone 14. Great tutorial.
I do love your reviews. I'm a wack-a-noodle from Texas! Have my Buds Pro with my Galaxy S22. Works great
"Porn or whatever"
Ded🤣
That argument got me
Brutal honesty.. lol.
A proper wireless buds is required to keep you hands free to do what is needed.......
What's up uncle spurt. Nice seeing you and your shiny head again
What's up is my blood pressure thanks to CES and lockdown never-endingness, but hey ho, all part of the fun :) Cheers Daniel, hope all's good!
Love this.
AirPods pro had all of of the features that the galaxy buds pro have
@@TechSpurt All is good thanks. There ain't any form of lockdown where I am 😂. My regards to fam from this side of the world (Not a very good part of the world to be in)
@@TechSpurt Can't you take a break from tech for a few days or so ? You definitely need it!!
I tried buds plus once. It had zero bass. I switched to jabras. Do you think this one is better in bass?
thanks for the review , a bit more over sound quality, bass and anc. and a bit less over app gimmicks and it will be perfect..
I have small ears and theses ear buds hurt but great. Do you recommend one that is good for small ears and won't kill them ???
I'd give them a 4/10
They're not the loudest, sound quality is too bad but also not great. The fall out of your ears pretty easily. The noise cancelling is useless if trying to talk on a bus. All the other person hears is the sound of the bus engine. Sometimes they can't detect that they're being worn. Battery life is pretty good and the mic works well if there's not much background noise. Mic is much better than my skull candy cassette but sound quality is comparable. The difference is my skull candy cost me £20 brand new.
My only place for tech reviews
great video dude of the pro model. i am ordering it now. in comparison to the live this ones does offer a better design. thanks for the video is awesome. I will be making a review too hehe
8:42 didn't understand anything after bass-heavy, you recommend what??
Is it possible to use the left earphone in the right ear? I can't hear in my left ear and I want to use the headphones interchangeably.
yh
No iOS support is a bummer. When paired with your iOS device, you wont get the app support you get with buds live or the plus.
Lol, its not Samsung's fault anymore. Why would they have a supporting app for a competing platform and brand? It still sounds better than the Airpods Pro even then though.
Actually, they do support Google Assistant. You just have to remove Bixby Voice as the standard app from the phone's settings.
I got a newer Android tablet, the S7, this Bixby crap is dumb, it is the only reason I would go back to my Tab A 8.0 2015
Well for me I have the OnePlus 7 Pro where Bixby does not even exist.
The only R rated/18+ tech channel.
"So Samsung want to be inside of YOU?"
Hell of a way to start the video... Alright, you got my attention you beautiful bastard.

Me: alright I'm sold
Like ur videos mate. Can you tell me where I can get a screen protector from for my s22 Ultra a very good tough one
Great video Bud!
I just ordered them, hope they are good
love the saitama backround!

Is the mic feature enabled when in use with live streaming from Instagram etc?
Getting these free with my new 21 ultra ❤️
You got yours yet?
@@michaelgibbons6828 yes. They’re decent but not brilliant, and the ANC and Mic quality is average. Air Pods Pro on a different level.
These or the freebuds pro? I have the og buds and looking to upgrade but I am not sure which one go for.
I never knew samsung wanted to be inside of me!
Also great review
👍
I currently have Jabra Elite 65t as my wireless earbuds, and the right bud is the main one that controls the connection between devices, so left one won't work unless you have the right bud in your ear...
Is this the case with these as well?
Also, whilst they're still priced at £300... Would these still be considered "worth it" if they're (Samsung) are giving these away with a laptop preorder?
Been looking for new buds as these currently don't hold as much charge as they used to....
Thanks in advance!
can i have buds 2 and buds pro comparison? pleaseee
The volume is not very loud? Can that be adjusted? My phone is full blast & can barely hear them
“I was moist in seconds ……” lol
Currently watching this vid with the Buds Pro on.
which one is better? oneplus buds pro or galaxy buds pro
One of the funniest tech reviwers out there. 😅👍😊
@flossycarter 🥱
@@JesusLopez-hm1em i said "one of the"
hi there!
does the pro case feel flimsy like the disastrous buds live? that shit felt super cheapo
Thanks for the review. I got mine today but I realised only the right bud plays the music the left bud doesn't, is that how everyone else is?
I cannot go longer than 45 seconds with these buds without them falling out, I've gone up to the biggest size tip yet I could be perfectly still and will feel them slipping out ever so slightly until they drop out 30 seconds later, it's very irritating, I also have a relative who has the same issue ive tried every solution, I've already ordered a pair of airpod pros bc these became genuinely unbearable
You might wanna go with the smaller ones. But I've only had them for about a week
Lol what a fucking troll, the Buds fit better in the ear more than my Airpods Pros, those always fall off at the gym treadmill. Dont blame the brand if you dont even know how to use the tools they provide you. The extra eartips are there for a reason. Sad that you replaced them with a worse sounding product
@@SeoWoojin55 I tried every size numb nuts, our ears are just different shapes and that's fine, I don't know why you're so pressed over headphones😂 it's rlly not that deep, plus I would agree airpod pros are not worth the price even a little bit
Good review but could they be faulty as my noise cancelling is great, can't hear cars when I'm stood right next to the road and can't hear people right in front of me
Not surprised they fit so well it's the vacuum between your ears that does that.
Off topic but What’s your verdict on creative outlier gold for tv use?
I'm looking for buds that have on board storage. Do you have any recommendations?
Do the Samsung Galaxy buds pro detect the name of the person calling you? If not, then which pair of buds tell you the name of the caller that is calling you when the buds are inside your ears?
