Editorial note

The Samsung Galaxy Buds stand out for their superior sound quality, thanks to dynamic drivers and ceramic magnets that provide rich and immersive audio reproduction. The audio performance is impressive, which will delight music lovers looking for a quality listening experience. In terms of connectivity, these earbuds benefit from True Wireless Stereo (TWS) technology and Bluetooth 5.0, ensuring a fast and stable connection with compatible devices. Additionally, the intuitive touch control allows for easy and convenient use without having to take out your device. However, the battery life, while reasonable at 5 to 6 hours of continuous use, may prove insufficient for some users with extended needs, leading to frequent recharges. The lack of a 3.5 mm audio connector also limits compatibility with certain devices, which can be a drawback for those who prefer wired connections. The compact and lightweight design of the earbuds, weighing only 6 g each, is an asset for portability. Nevertheless, the size of the silicone tips may not suit all users, especially during prolonged use. In summary, the Samsung Galaxy Buds offer good value for money, with impressive audio performance and optimal connectivity, but improvements could be made regarding battery life and user comfort.
