Samsung Galaxy Buds
Samsung’s small but brilliant Galaxy Buds are designed to keep you listening for longer. That’s all thanks to Samsung’s smart design and innovative charging options.
Hours of fun, just minutes to charge
Galaxy Buds will let you play all your favourite songs for up to six hours on a single charge. They can be charged wirelessly and quickly on PowerShare compatible Galaxy devices, or Qi wireless chargers.
No more background noise
Samsung's next-generation adaptive dual microphone technology is a huge selling point in these Galaxy Buds. This technology will virtually eliminate background noise. As Galaxy Buds are capable of recognising your surroundings, they can switch between inner and outer mics to keep unnecessary noise out of your most important conversations.
Superior sound
These earbuds have won rave reviews for their audio quality, which is all thanks to acoustic specialists AKG. They've tuned Galaxy Buds to deliver a rich, premium sound often associated with more expensive brands.
Open and pair
Why wait any longer than you have to? Galaxy Buds will work right out of the box, by instantly to connecting your other Samsung Galaxy devices through Bluetooth.
A new design for a better fit
With their newly refined design, Galaxy Buds are compact enough to fit comfortably into your pocket beside the rest of your belongings. No more discomfort or unsightly bulges!
A newer model Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 was released in August 2021.

- They sound decent, battery life is good (around 6 hours at moderate volume levels) and their compact charging case offers USB-C wired and wireless charging.
- Bass isn't all that deep
- charging case only delivers a little more than one full charge
- certain features only work with Android phones.

Samsung Galaxy Buds review: Keeping it simple
By stripping away the fitness-tracking smarts and focusing on the key features - namely battery life and comfort - Samsung has made a genuine AirPod contender at an even lower price point. Problem is the wireless connectivity isn't perfect.- Small and comfortable to wear
- Case has wireless charging
- Sound quality is decent for the money
- Battery life for the category is great
- Touch-sensitive panels take some getting used to
- Only one extra charge from the case (not two
- Bluetooth connectivity isn't always reliable
