![]() ![]() I wore them for over 4 hours straight on a plane ride from Salt Lake City to New York with no discomfort. (A single Buds 2 bud weighs 5 grams while the Buds Pro and Buds Plus buds both weigh 6.3 grams.) When I tried the largest of the three included ear tips, they fit snugly and comfortably. The smaller Buds 2 should fit a wider range of ears - Samsung says they were designed for "all-day comfort" - and I liked how they felt. When I tried them, I had to use my own extra large ear tips to get a tight seal. While the bean-shaped Buds Live fit me securely, some people complained they weren't a good match for their ears. Because they sit more flush with your ears - and have that curved design - they also pick up less wind noise. While the Buds 2 look more like shrunken versions of the Buds Pro, I found them more akin to the Buds Live in that they barely stick out of your ears and are discreet. That means all the latest Galaxy Buds models now feature some form of active noise canceling, though it's slight with the Buds Live, which have an open design sans ear tips. Like the Buds Pro, the Buds 2 are equipped with active noise canceling. 27, the Buds 2 ($150, £139, AU$219) come in four color options (graphite, white, olive and lavender) with a white charging case. Available for preorder now and shipping Aug. In fact, it's the Buds 2's design and fit - they're 15% smaller and 20% lighter than the Buds Plus - that makes them a potentially more likable alternative to the slightly better sounding Buds Pro. The Buds 2 hew more closely to the newer Galaxy Buds Pro and Galaxy Buds Live, both of which have eye-catching glossy curved designs and the same compact charging case as this new model. Introduced alongside new Galaxy foldable phones and smartwatches at Samsung's August Unpacked event, the Buds 2 are a departure from the original Galaxy Buds and the upgraded Galaxy Buds Plus, which shared a similar design aesthetic. The Galaxy Buds 2 earbuds are technically the third generation of Samsung's entry-level true-wireless earbuds, but their name makes sense. Water-Resistant Yes (IPX7 - can be submerged for 30 minutes up to 1 meter). ![]()
