The sound is perfect. Essentially the same quality as my SteelSeries Arctis Pro, which is considerably more expensive than this, and a headset.
The connection works great. Auto stops playback when you take them out of the ear, and ive only had maybe 1 or 2 cut-outs ever in my daily use.
They fit great in the ear. Multiple tips you can use, and very snug. They wont fall out, even during running or heavy workouts. Sometimes ill sleep with them on and theyll fall out, but I do toss and turn, so YMMV.
The battery is excellent - lasts all night, and most of the day. You can also bring the case with you and it will last 20ish hours, it will hold a charge.
The active noise cancelling, as well as the ambient sound boost work good. But i havent used them much, because even with the ambient boost i cant clearly hear when people are talking to me. Both modes will also wreck battery life - a reduction by half or so.
The in-app controls work alright and arent frustrating, I only wish it held the EQ setting + ANC setting on an onboard memory or something for when you use it on a non-samsung device, other than that; cant complain.
Great for the price, would recommend any day.

The Samsung Galaxy Buds2 are wireless earbuds that promise an exceptional listening experience. They come in four vibrant colors: Graphite, Lavender, Olive, and White. The compact design makes them comfortable to wear for extended periods, and they fit snugly in your ears without any discomfort.
The audio quality of the Buds2 is excellent, with deep, rich bass and crystal-clear highs. The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) feature effectively blocks out external noise, allowing you to focus on your music or calls without any distractions. The Ambient Sound feature enables you to hear your surroundings when necessary, such as when you're in a busy area.
The Buds2 also feature touch controls that make it easy to navigate through music and answer calls without needing to take out your phone. The battery life is impressive, with up to 5 hours of playback time on a single charge and up to 20 hours with the charging case. The Buds2 also support fast charging, with just 5 minutes of charging providing up to an hour of playback time.
One drawback of the Buds2 is the lack of wireless charging capability, which is available on some other earbud models. Some users also reported that the fit was not ideal for their ear shape, leading to discomfort after extended use.
Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Buds2 are an excellent choice for those looking for wireless earbuds with great audio quality, reliable noise cancellation, and a long battery life. The touch controls and compact design make them convenient to use, and they come in a range of attractive colors to suit your style.

Excellent sound. Great noise cancelation. You have to turn the ear buds upright for them to stay in everyone has there way to make them stay in but they are definitely a doable pair. I love the lilac color. The sound is great for plane rides, car rides, walking down the street, the gym, has a great battery life too. I would recommend these headphones!

First I love the color, I got these earbuds because trying to disconnect my Galaxy Buds+ from my iPhone 12 to my Note 20 Ultra whenever I get a phone call was becoming a nuisance. The Buds 2 sound freaking amazing. I read reviews about some people getting ear infections from these headphones and other ear issues. I experienced something totally different. I understand why people feel the Buds+ are better, that's due to the wing tip and I agree. When I paired the Buds 2 with my Note 20 Ultra I was so pleased because I'm very particular on how I want my music to sound. When I took them out I noticed an ear popping feeling like when you're on a plane and I immediately got a headache. I can honestly agree that the ANC really works. I'm guessing the ANC is the reason for the reaction I experienced. I really wanted to like these but I realize after several tries and several headaches, for me the Buds 2 cannot be used with my Note 20 Ultra. BUT, there's a bright side. Although you can't use the Galaxy wearable app on the iPhone for the Buds 2 they work just fine and I don't get any airplane ear pop and no headaches. Because of the sound and the color I decided to keep them. Like some others I too wish there was a wing tip. I've been switching up the ear bud tips to try to get the best fit. And for those who say they didn't get any extra tips, they are in a tiny box wrapped up in the charging cord. I'll show some photos.

Good quality sound and fitment, batteries seem to last longer than my last pair, and no issues w/ connectivity. A step up from the last gen galaxy buds. Ambient sound is the best while listening, so you can stay alert to your surroundings.

I bought these for myself and it was Great purchase. They have great sound quality and fit nicely in your ear. The app that goes with them is great and has different sound modes. They also come with a built in gps tracker. I've had these for awhile now and use them every day. Great product, even for the price.

Excellent earbuds work great with my Samsung A14 phones. Stays charged for a long time period and I can wear one at a time for longer periods. Excellent quality for the price, I only wish I could get a bigger discount. I would love it if it was on sale again for $99.

Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 deliver the best of the Galaxy Buds Pro for less, with ANC, wireless charging, and a colourful, lightweight design.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 review – the right sound for the right priceWe take a look at Samsung's newest, lightest, very competitively priced true wireless earbuds with ANC – the Buds 2.
A:AnswerI don't have an issue with them falling out. I have the buds plus and the buds pro. The buds pro fell out of my ear constantly. These buds2 don't fall out at all. I did the head shake test and I tilted my head to the side and left it there and after a while they can move but they didn't fall out. I also wore them for four hours and no pain unlike the buds pro.
A:AnswerThey will connect via basic Bluetooth but the companion app (with more in-depth controls/modifications to the touchpad settings and other features) cannot be downloaded on Apple devices.
A:AnswerThe battery life is pretty long it came with about 5 hours of battery with noice cancelation on and about 7 hour plus without noice cancelation
A:AnswerYes you can. I use my Samsung phone charger with my Earbuds. I'm pretty sure the USB-C is universal. (The small end of the cable)
You can use any brand USB-C for charging your Earbuds and other similar items. It recommended using the same manufacturer for better compatibility. For me, I always ask Best Buy Total Tech to ensure I have the right info.
