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.

Good buds

They are good though sometimes drop out. Love the fact I can see how much power is left (when the phone and buds communicate with each other)

Samsung Galaxy Buds - Black SM-R170 review

Although their sound quality doesn't wow, the Galaxy Buds are certainly worth considering if you're a Samsung Galaxy or Android phone owner.
Pros:
  • These compact, lightweight noise-isolating true wireless earphones should fit most ears securely
  • 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.
Cons:
  • Bass isn't all that deep
  • charging case only delivers a little more than one full charge
  • certain features only work with Android phones.
