Samsung Galaxy ear buds

[Steve1956]

Looking to buy a pair of these,anyone got any? ...down to £119.00 on Amazon,any good?

[Devils_Advocate]

Loads of money.....

[MiltonKeynesClaret93]

There'll be quite a few brand new knocking about on eBay. Definitely worth a look. They gave away free pairs with Galaxy smartphones so a lot of people sold theirs.

Mate of mine got one of the watches and it was SMARTRRR - did all sorts and seemed an actual decent add on to the phone rather than the gimmicks usually rolled out.

Im just jealous cos I got myself some wireless ear buds last week and my budget stretched to 10 quid for some dodgy brand from China

Coughing is a godsend when your favourite band is Bucks Fizz

Based on your budget I'd consider the Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 or Sony wf-1000xm3.

Depends on what you want type of music you listen to, importance of mic quality on calls, running etc.

[BurningBeard]

I've got a pair of the Melomania mentioned by barba and they're great. Superb sound quality and battery life.

Do they fit snuggly?

[BurningBeard]

Yes, they come with 3 pairs of silicone tips S/M/L, and a memory foam set of tips. I use the memory foam which give me the best fit because they mold to the ear canal when inserted. Either way the should be an option that suits you I would think.

Headphones and earphones are a personal choice and can be tricky to try before you buy especially at the minute. I'd just decide what your priorites are from a pair and read plenty of reviews.

Does anyone have experience of the apple airpods - are they a different shape to the wired earphones you get with the phone? I want some to use for phone calls, but the wired ones that come with the phone seem to slip out of my ears. Not bothered about using for music as use over-ear ones for that.

The missus and I got the AirPod Pro for a holiday (remember them) earlier this year. They are a different shape to the standard wired headphones and come with different sized tips so that you can find the right fit for you.

The sound is pretty decent for wireless, they work great for calls and of course link up easily with Apple products - I use mine with the phone and watch.

The battery life is pretty good and they recharge quickly from the case, which itself recharges pretty quickly too.

They’re a tad steep price wise but I’ve definitely got plenty of use from them, perhaps more than I thought I would.

[claret2018]

Cheers. Yeah the pro look like they will fit my ears a lot better, but ideally I don't want any kind of noise cancelling because I'll just be using in the office.

What's that you say?

Worth noting that you can switch between three different modes, so they don’t have to be noise cancelling. It’s quite a strange effect when you first switch over to noise cancelling, but very effective, as is the transparency mode which seems to bring outside noise in by balancing it alongside the music.

My brother did this ^^^

He only got 70 or 80 quid for them so there should be a deal to be had.

[Jakubclaret]

I’ve had lots of different makes, lots drop connection & have dodgy battery spans, I’ve never tried the Samsung galaxy earbuds but I’ve seen them advertised on wish alot cheaper than advertised elsewhere, whether cheap Chinese clones or AKG manufactured not sure, I use Motorola verve buds without any problems.

[Darthlaw]

I went with Jabra 65t’s as I found the sound quality to be the best.

They seem to be comparatively priced p, if not a little cheaper than the Samsung ones.

[Jakubclaret]

Them sennheiser look decent as well as the Jabras, depends on the budget.
