I have every wireless earbud model that Samsung has made thus far. I cannot recommend Galaxy Buds 2 Pro enough.
The sound is remarkable, simply put.
Turning on the 360 audio feature on them changes everything, I don't even know how it's possible to feel like the sound is coming from everywhere besides the things sitting in your ears.
The active noice canceling is shocking, it's substantially better than just a generation ago in the buds 2. My window is right next to a main road in my town, and I can sit right in front of it, watching cars go by 15 feet away, without anything playing in the earbuds, and not hear the cars at all. Blows my mind.
Generally buds with wingtips fit best in my ears, and they give me more confidence wearing them in active conditions, jogging, biking, cleaning, etc. The Buds 2 never stayed in my ears very well, constant adjustments, the Buds Pro were even worse, and produced unbearable pain in my ears due to their size, geometry, and weight. I was frankly expecting a similar outcome with these Buds 2 Pro, I was instead very surprised to find out that they fit and stay in my ears better than even the Buds FE and other wingtipped buds. I can wear them indefinitely without discomfort, and rarely have to adjust their position in my ears. I do not know how they pulled this off. They are noticeably lighter than previous buds, this surely plays a role. (I understand the fitment will vary by individual)
Battery life is also perfectly sufficient for most people's listening habits, I would imagine. The old Buds+ and their 11+ hours have spoiled me though, and leave me wanting more with all the Buds I've had since, but, I can't really complain with these specifically, ~6 hours is a fine tradeoff if it means lighter buds with better drivers.
I'm not an audiophile, I can't tell you why these sound great, but they do, that is certain.
HIGHLY recommend.
