Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 review: nailing the basics with style

Samsung's lightest and smallest wireless earbuds yet.

Small, discreet design ; Good audio quality ; ANC and wireless charging

Mediocre ambient sound mode ; Weak water resistance ; No auto-pause when removing earbuds

The new Galaxy Buds 2 are Samsung’s lightest and smallest true wireless earbuds yet. They offer good sound quality and features like active noise cancellation and wireless charging.

Samsung Galaxy Buds2 Review

Bass-forward sound signature with bright highs ; Good noise cancellation for the price

Weak water-resistance rating ; Touch controls are easy to misfire ; Small, slippery earbuds can be hard to handle

Samsung's true wireless Galaxy Buds2 earphones improve upon the originals with the addition of active noise cancellation, but still carry the same low water-resistance rating.

Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 review: Entry-level price, premium power

The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 are small, but mighty

Extremely comfortable ; Competitively priced ; Powerful ANC and ambient modes ; Great audio performance

Not as water resistant as competitors

The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 are the company’s smallest ever, but don’t skimp on the audio performance or smart features.

Samsung Galaxy Buds2 Truly Wireless Review

The Samsung Galaxy Buds2 Truly Wireless are the next generation of the Samsung Galaxy Buds+ Truly Wireless. The manufacturer has added an active noise cancelling...

Stable, comfortable fit. Well-built design. Very consistent audio delivery. Great noise isolation performance.

Sub-par battery performance. Mic has poor noise handling. Bad passive soundstage.

The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 are decent for neutral sound. Out of the box, they have a fairly neutral sound profile suitable for a variety of audio content. Their treble is a bit recessed, and their passive soundstage is perceived as closed-off and as if...

Samsung Galaxy Buds2 review: These in-ear headphones pack a punch

Samsung packs a bevy of features, including active noise cancellation, into these sleek true wireless earbuds.

Rounded, comfy design ; Effective noise cancellation and three-step ambient sound mode ; Pleasingly big, crisp sound ; Solid battery life

Audio signature is a tad on the bright side ; Samsung devices are required for the Buds2’s best features

Sleek, light, tough, and—most importantly—fun to listen to, the ANC-packing Samsung Galaxy Buds2 have upped the ante in sub-$200 true wireless earbuds. True, Samsung phone users will get the most out of the Galaxy Buds2, and the sound—while accessible...

Accidental touch gestures are hard to avoid when adjusting the earbuds in your ears

Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 review: More affordable noise cancelling earbuds

The $149 Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 is a solid sequel that upholds most of the series' hallmarks, but ignores its biggest flaws.

Those who don’t own a Galaxy device should look at competitors in the same price range that offer slightly better performance; the Beats Studio Buds is a prime example.
