That was an excellent review. You gave viewers such a detailed, but clearly understandable explanation of the strengths and weaknesses of each bud that their only difficulty will be in deciding which of the features is most important to them. I think I've made my choice, so, thank you very much.
Your review is spot on. I own Buds Live, Buds 2, Bose, and Buds Fe... I always grab my Buds Fe... They fit better, are more comfortable, and the sound is just as good as all the others if you ask me, but I am not an audio person. I mainly listen to videos and podcasts, more so than music. It's just not that big of a difference for me when it comes to sound for the things I use my earbuds for... I prefer practically over features. This is the first pair of earbuds I have ever owned that doesn't get uncomfortable after wearing several hours. I can actually fall asleep with these in my ears and wake up them with my ears instead of trying to find them in my bed... I think the noise cancelation is better than any of my other earbuds. Get them for free with the Samsung Ultra 24 order instead of the Samsung Pro version. Great review as always!.. Oh yeah, about the software features, I have never once used any of those features with any of my higher-end earbuds. Who has time to worry about all that? As long as our devices work correctly, sound good, and have a good user experience, that is what matters. Unless of course, someone is one of the rare people who have way too much time on their hands. 🤷♀️
Everyone's entitled to their opinion. Even if their opinion is just flat out wrong. Time is a luxury I hope 1 day I will be able to enjoy. Yet "labs", in my life, is an investment of my time I choose to spend on because, unlike you, music in my ears within any time I'm allowed, brings tranquility, peace, emotions and so much more into my life. And without it, I would not be able to keep the pep in my step from Friday to Friday and still be grounded to my existence. 😅you definitely hit a nerve for me to give this time to write this with your assumption when I gotta get going. But I will copy and save this for myself to read later and see if I wasted energy by overreacting. 😅 Anyway, take care buddy
I've watched 3 different comparison videos on this topic and yours was by far the BEST. I love your attention to detail, and I don't get lost/lose track of what product you're talking about. Nice, detailed, systematic review. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Finally! Someone with good review i like it a lot that you say your opinion on buds not like everyone say "what do you think" and then i dont know what to pick, perfect and clean review🎉 thank you😊
What a great review. I bought the Buds2 earlier this year and used them mostly for the gym, but without the wing tip, they just fell out of my ears over and over again while working out. I wasn't sure if I wanted to spend as much as what the Buds2 Pro cost, and certainly dont need all the extras as far as software, so having come across the Buds FE, it's nice to see they will serve for the purpose I need them for. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. You've got a new subscriber out of me!
I also mostly listen to music while in the gym. is it okay if I can ask you how your experience with the buds fe was? Daniel said that the sound quality was good but I just want to make sure that is it actually worth it as my gym is kinda noisy and I would like clear and crsip music playing
I’m impressed on how this guy is able to help me making a choice, many videos just feel like, oh this one’s good, but not better, there is a cheaper and bla bla bla, i don’t really feel like i’m close to making a choice. Otherwise, by watching these i understood really well the pros and cons of each device, and got a real answer at the end. Simple, the fe are overall best, but if you got more to spend and want some fancy features you may get the pro ones.
still not understanding why they even got rid of those, they were unique looking and comfortable and the fans loved them, the bean design is just so much worse all around
Yeah, the Buds & Buds+ might not have the higher battery life & sound quality, but gadamn do they fit comfortably and stay in. FE & FE+ are a nice callback. I definitely dig the flat touch area.
Thank you! I was debating by FE and Pro2. Initially i was leaned towards pro2 just for the (supposingly) superior sound but your video changed ny mind lol going for FE! Thanks
@@suguha5908 I can answer why I'm leaning toward the FE. The FE is less than half the price, offers a remarkable upgrade over the galaxy bud+ (the headphones I'm coming from which fit very well for me) in the form of better sound, ANC, a more reliable mic, and better holding power. I don't believe the pro 2s are genuinely worth more than double the price when I'll probably feel like I'm in a new era of sound just getting the FEs. Now in gonna try and listen to both and see if the difference in audio quality closes the gap but I'd rather dump $100 dollars for earbuds and get 200% of my current experience than spend $230 for 220% of my current audio enjoyment.
I already have the Galaxy Buds2 Pro and love them. Was considering changing it the Galaxy Buds FE but after seeing this video and hearing your findings then I am sticking with my Buds3 Pro’s purely because of the software features. Have just ‘subscribed’ and look forward to hearing more from you about Samsung products
Thanks for you videos! I got a set of the Buds Fe based on your intial impressions video. I already have the pros and pros2. These fe's are the perfect headphones for the gym and activities. So comfy and they stay put. Tuning is bass heavy which is perfect for the gym. Just enough noise cancelling. The slightly duller mids and highs are noticable but then again there's no ear fatigue.
Thanks so much 🙏 the only downside to Buds FE is no wireless charging. But it's minor in the grand scheme of things, you can still charge them at least!
I have the Buds2 Pro & I just got my Buds FE today. The Buds FE fit in my ear SOOOO much better & more comfortably. Battery life on my Buds2 Pro were pretty awful, even from the start. I had them replaced & still the same thing. Sound is nearly identical to me. Very happy with the Buds FE.
I just got the FE and for the price over $100 cheaper they are hands down my new favorite. And they actually stay in my ear, the Buds Pro2 always fall out. And I bought the comply foam tips for my buds FE and they almost sound as good as the Pro2.
I am looking into a new set of buds after I lost my Airpods of 4 years. One thing I love about the Airpods, they don't talk to you when you first put them in. I have to ask, do the FEs greet you with some voice or is it a simple chime to say they connected?
Would be great if you recorded the buds' microphone in a noisy environment to have that comparison. Personally, I don't usually use earbuds at home. Regardless, I'll go with FE to have that fit, my ears are large, and my current fin-based buds are perfect for me. Thanks for the vid
Had the Buds 2 and upgraded to the Pro last year. Love the grippy design...helps with it not slipping out of your fingers. Lots of minor premium features that only enthusiasts will use but it's why they're the flagship set. But for regular people that aren't audiophiles, the cheaper ones are just fine and you'll never even notice the differences
The ANC from Buds 2 Pro is much more better then anc of buds 2 and I think that it is one of the most important things for regular people when is looking for buy a earbud. I have Buds2 and Buds2 Pro and I recomend to everyone pay a little more and buy a Buds2 Pro. I have these two Buds.
I bought myself a high end set of over the ear headphones from Bowers and Wilkins. Since that purchase, I've found many audio products lacking, including the original Galaxy Buds Pro. I believe that this is due to many audio products lacking support for high resolution sound. The Buds 2 Pro have no such deficiency. Their sound is simply excellent. If you own a Samsung phone and you value high quality audio, then look no further than the Buds 2 Pro!
I found this to be true for me to I also own a few pairs on wired high end headphones from hifi man sennheiser etc. As well as b and o ex which are simply the best but the buds 2 pro are great for the price especially since you can get them for less now.
Hey man, first time viewer on your channel here. Great vid! I recently did a long term review of the Buds 2 Pro and was very curious about the new FE buds that go back to old designs, your comparison was very extensive. IMO a bit disappointing they didn't use wireless charging in the case. Subbed!
I'd love to but unfortunately I don't own a pair of Buds Live's. One thing I'll say is the lives don't really create a seal nor have good ANC (open ANC isn't real ANC lol)
I own all three. I keep coming back to Samsung because they just keep nailing it everytime. Every firmware update their buds just get better and better. The FE are awesome but limited obviously, if they just added wireless charging they wouldve been perfect. Also surprisingly the 6.5mm drivers somehow have more bass then my JBL Live Pro 2 and they also have clearer highs. So for the price point and the features they do have, they basically outperform my Live Pro 2 in every aspect.
@AlmightyOne24 so with my new phone this allows the Buds FE to utilize Samsungs scalable codec. This makes the buds FE actually sound really good and close to the buds pro 2
Great review. Sub earned. Just about to buy the pro2 buuuut seems FE is what i actually need. Think pro2 are bad for gym/running or just not as good. Will i regret getting them if gym will be were i mainly use the m?
You are the first one who comapre buds 2pro talk about 360° audio recoding... Ohters neglect it. This is very useful when you capture video and rewatch later and hear 360 audio means you relive the movement
I'm an old guy with defective hearing. My Buds 2 have adjustable ambient hearing enhancement for both volume & clarity. 1.Perfect for TV listening, without high volume, freaking out other family viewers. 2. Great for picking out a conversation, in a crowded room. Like the FE for the wingtips, but are the ambient noise controls, exactly the same as the Galaxy 2 buds? Thanks great video
I am interested in Galaxy buds for exactly the same reason - helping to understand people in a group. But no reviewer cares about these features. What a pity.
How's the loudness on that guys? What's the volume level u guys usually listen at? I had oppo Air 5 pro and 3/15 was enough for me, but with the 2 pros i am at 6/15. Idk whether it's normal or mine's faulty, cause I expected a bit more loudness as these are Samsung's premium.
As a buds plus user i love the wingtip design of the FEs but that double tap edge for volume control is a must for me. Also in my country the 2 pros cost similar if not less The FEs somehow with bank discounts. Will be mainly using this for Gym. Hopefully it fits well in my ear.
thanks for comparing the cases too. Im already sold on the FE from before, since I love the wingtips of my OG Buds. I would sacrifice some high end features for the wingtips.
Great review, but no mention on battery life, from what I understand the Buds 2 offer the longest and the FE the shortest, For a lot of people this is veryt important
Awesome video. thanks for all the info. Getting a S24 and a set of FE are free with the phone so i wanted to know if I should retire my old buds and now I know I can. Thanks so much again
I never write comments, but i feel like i have to. I thought about buying the Pro Version but decided to get the fe buds because of the video . They. Are. Awesome . The fit ,the sounds, the Look. I love them. 10/10 Thanks alot
Thank you for this video. I bought the Buds Pro 2 but returned them after a few hours. I just could not get a good fit despite trying all the different tips. The better SQ was wasted due to the poor fit. I've now bought the Fe based on your video. I'm coming from the Buds+ which fit me perfectly so I'm hoping these will do so too.
I'm wearing my Buds2 and I've been listening to them all night at Work and: THE BASS is deep and rich down to 15Hz, also I do listen to Bass Music with them.
so, for someone that lost their buds 2 but still has the case, the buds fe are just the obvious choice, since I can use the buds 2 case if I want the wireless charging
Loved this review...I have the both the 2 and the 2 pro. I use the pros right now, of course, with the 2's as a back up in case I lose them or whatever...anyway I have the FE's ordered and on the way. Got em cause I KNEW the wing tip design would fit better for me like the past model with that design. My only question is do the FE's have the "read text out loud" feature in them cause I really like that with my Pro's. 🤔
Thank you for this video. I lost my buds+ and was going to upgrade. From your video i decided to just replace my buds+ with a new pair of buds+. I use them all the time outside and on my bike so i want the wingtips and i charge everything wirelessly.
Great video man..i found out that i was wearing my buds fe wrong, i.e., the wing tips underneath the lower crus of antihelix, and it was painful. I was about to return them but now got the trick. Thanx✌🏽
Thanks for making this video! I'm still using a Galaxy Buds+ and was thinking about upgrading just for the sake of upgrading. These buds have been in use for the past couple of years and work amazingly still. But now that I've seen this I think I'll keep using them until they stop working. I like the wingtip design but just as importantly I like being able to wirelessly charge my buds overnight.
I have the buds fe and they're just like my Buds plus. Active noise cancelling- NOT. Fit for the FE , I had to put on the larger ear pieces. Looks Fe and Buds+ - I don't see any other than FE can take the wing off. Worth 99.99, not a chance. I'm listening to this on my Buds+, can barely tell any difference with the FE. I was miffed after trying the FE because the noise cancellation just is bad, none existant, but I chose not to return them.
Buds fe has 1 speaker.... and buds + has 2 way speaker, so its worse sound quality, just bass? Thats all i hear, so its not worth it. Buds + is still alive after 3 years...
@@privxete4089 when one dies I use other. And they have different use cases. But honestly I, I, I, im just crying out out for helppp, I think I got earbud addiction 🥺
The lack of wireless charging on the FE is a deal breaker for me. My Buds 2 Pro came with a wireless charger that I dont want to stop using. This seems like a baffling design choice.
I've got Buds2 Pro to my S22 Ultra and use them since then. I've got Buds FE to s24 Ultra and compering them FE's are a piece of crap. The Buds 2 Pro sound is deeper, the bass is very nice. I sold the FE's and I don't regret using Pro 2
Yeah but the call quality on the FE in a noisy environment is way better than the 2 Pro which isn't all that better than it's predecessor. Every reviewer harps about sound quality but ignores call quality
I personally love my buds 2. Got them over the pros because I heard the pros have a worse fit then the smaller buds 2. I am also use to wearing huge ear buds that stick pretty long out or that are just big and noticeable. I wanted a set of smaller buds that sounded great and that are really not noticeable while I am at work and they work and fir great. Yes fe are a better value but the buds 2 are just a better ear bud. BTW they where 99 dollars last holiday season when I got them, and you bet they will be this year. Just get the buds 2 over the fes lol
@@gudlutripathy3283If you don't mind, can you tell me how are the comparisons and differences between the two? I know the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are better. But how far better? I've been tempted to buy Liberty 4 NC because of their bang for the buck.
@@gudlutripathy3283which one you do you like more? Can you please provide a detailed comparison? Like sound quality, comfort, call quality and overall experience?
Hey Daniel, I have all 3 also. I mainly use the the Buds2 Pro for flights for the brilliant ANC. My daily drivers are the Buds Live as they stay in the ear and allow external sound. Perfect for exercising or low noise areas. When I got the Buds FE and tried the fit, I didn't think I would be going back to the Buds2 Pro at all. The sound is good in the FE's, so very passible for daily use and flights with the wing tips. The only drawback being the lack of wireless charging. Oh, and I used to use the Buds2 a bit, but I think the FE's might take over.
Which one would u say is better between the pro and fe? I can get either of them for the same price but idk which one to get. Fe sounds appealing cuz of the wing tips for when i walk home on the daily and the noise cancelling being better(?). Whilst the pros have better audio and better software and the 360 degree microphone
@@conglomerate127 The Pro are a better set for pretty much everything except the fit (all the extra features, including the wireless charging). The ANC is about the same, but with the wing tips you are pretty much guaranteed that the FE won't fall out. For me (only my opinion), I'd probably use the FE when walking, but stick to the Pro on a flight. I haven't done a straight FE vs Pro ANC comparison, but the FE ANC was great when I tried it. I vacuumed my car with them on and barely heard the vacuum while listening to a Podcast. Last time I used the Pro to do the same, the ANC was similar, but they moved in my ears a bit while moving my head around a lot. I guess it just depends on your use case...
@@conglomerate127 I did a test earlier on the ANC and sound quality. Buds2 Pro are definitely better, sound quality is great and the ANC is also. The fit really is the only thing that the FE would do better with the wingtips.
12:20 just a note, to get that to work consistently, you have to double tap from behind your ear. I'm currently using the buds+ so not sure if it's the same for the newer models.
I had the buds live that I got given for free then traded them in for the buds 2pro and it's been great. Love the matte finish of the buds and inside but preferably none matte finish on the outside. Samsung with it's buds have been solid. Black and white colours timeless but would love to see more colour options.
I'm using the galaxy buds+ since 3-4 years now and they still work perfectly. Looking for a change though. Now my most used feature by far is actually the volume control by double tapping the left (down) or right (up) ear. This so handy for quickly changing volume even if you wear a hoody for example. Not sure if I missed it, but do the Buds FE have that feature too? How can you control volume with those?
Thanks for the video! How is the Bluetooth signal range on them (all three models) in case you get physically far away from the phone with the Buds in your ears?
I'm glad you made this video because I am hung up on the FE or Pro 2 price isn't an issue since they are in a range I can afford, but the FE has got me with it's wing tips, price point, and not being that different from my buds 2 which I lost the left one since I use the left one the most since it stay in my ear the longest than the right one. the Pro 2 is also pulling me towards it since it 1up the buds 2 and I am wonder how long and that stay in the ear against the FE..... with that black spot on the end to helps it stay in longer. I'm still racking my head since they are low priced and both are good, but thanks for the video.
hello thanks for great review. i am thinking to buy buds 2 pro , but one question i have , i am using edifire neckband and i have noticed that , due to it's noise cancellation , it is removing the "hmm" sound which i make when i say silent yes or thinking expression by making a 'hmm" sound. but it doesn't detect that and it removed completely and i have to tell caller on other side that yes yes i am on call. may i know how is pro and Fe in that low voice performance. that is a big point for me to buy new TWS. a fast reply would be great. thanks again for great review.
Great video, thank you so much for your content! QUICK QUESTION: I have the Buds 2, will upgrading to buds 2 PRO be a better noice cancellation / microphone combo? I live in a noisy place and the Buds 2 is amazing, wondering if I should upgrade to the Pro version
Is it all these extra functions like 360 sound only working with Samsung phones? Or just working for all brands phones like Google Pixel? Im considering buds 2 pro and pixel buds pro.
Would the FE be a big sound improvement over the old Buds plus? I have the Galaxy buds pro but they just don't fit. And they hurt my ears trying to smash them in. They do sound good though.
Could you help with info on which of the FE or Pro works better for zoom/microsoft teams video calls? I always have an issue with my audio clarity for recipients on the other side. Or my own voice at my end is muffled when the ANC is on
Hey man great video thanks! I have one question tough, do they have any noticable latency when watching a video? Like that you see them talking but hear it slightly later? or is it barely noticable
I'm a tad confused about the 360 audio section of your video. I own the Buds 2, and they do in fact offer 360 audio. Did I misunderstand what you were trying to say?
The best samsung related channel on YT...hands down.

I believe that this is due to many audio products lacking support for high resolution sound. The Buds 2 Pro have no such deficiency. Their sound is simply excellent. If you own a Samsung phone and you value high quality audio, then look no further than the Buds 2 Pro!
I found this to be true for me to I also own a few pairs on wired high end headphones from hifi man sennheiser etc. As well as b and o ex which are simply the best but the buds 2 pro are great for the price especially since you can get them for less now.
Same here
honestly - I think that anybody trying to enjoy high res sound with earbuds are kidding themselves.
I value all the other stuff more. FE for me
The sound bar is the noticeable difference between the earbuds. Thanks that says it perfectly to make a decision about what is going in my ears! 🕺
Hey man, first time viewer on your channel here. Great vid! I recently did a long term review of the Buds 2 Pro and was very curious about the new FE buds that go back to old designs, your comparison was very extensive. IMO a bit disappointing they didn't use wireless charging in the case. Subbed!
Thanks for the sub!
Thanks Dan!! You should do a buds fe vs buds live video, for the wing tip fanatics considering upgrading (it's me, I'm the fanatic)
I'd love to but unfortunately I don't own a pair of Buds Live's. One thing I'll say is the lives don't really create a seal nor have good ANC (open ANC isn't real ANC lol)
I own all three. I keep coming back to Samsung because they just keep nailing it everytime. Every firmware update their buds just get better and better. The FE are awesome but limited obviously, if they just added wireless charging they wouldve been perfect. Also surprisingly the 6.5mm drivers somehow have more bass then my JBL Live Pro 2 and they also have clearer highs. So for the price point and the features they do have, they basically outperform my Live Pro 2 in every aspect.
Is the difference in sound of FE vs Pro 2 noticeable?
@AlmightyOne24 so with my new phone this allows the Buds FE to utilize Samsungs scalable codec. This makes the buds FE actually sound really good and close to the buds pro 2
Great review. Sub earned. Just about to buy the pro2 buuuut seems FE is what i actually need. Think pro2 are bad for gym/running or just not as good. Will i regret getting them if gym will be were i mainly use the m?
With the smallest plugs they fit perfectly 👌 amazing quality, 1st pair of buds. Will leave another comment after taking them to the gym 🙏
Looking forward to hearing how they went?
@techwithbenefits 10/10 for the gym because they fit so well. The noise canceling + sound quality still wows me too.
@@GrandTheftTurtleis that the FE or buds pro 2?

Excellent review!
Thank you for a great review 👍
Great review! Good thing I just bought FE and using this while watching your review.
very helpful video, gave a very different perspective on the buds, really appreciate it!
Love your work. Thank you for doing what you do.
You are the first one who comapre buds 2pro talk about 360° audio recoding...
Ohters neglect it.
This is very useful when you capture video and rewatch later and hear 360 audio means you relive the movement
Love this video, helped me choose the right ones, thanks!
Best review I've seen. Just subscribed! Thank you and keep up with the good job. Cheers from Brazil :)
I've had the buds2 for a couple of years now, and I'm still happy with them.
I'm an old guy with defective hearing. My Buds 2 have adjustable ambient hearing enhancement for both volume & clarity. 1.Perfect for TV listening, without high volume, freaking out other family viewers.
2. Great for picking out a conversation, in a crowded room.
Like the FE for the wingtips, but are the ambient noise controls, exactly the same as the Galaxy 2 buds?
Thanks great video
I am interested in Galaxy buds for exactly the same reason - helping to understand people in a group.
But no reviewer cares about these features. What a pity.
Been testing Sony Wf-1000xm4, Sennheiser Momentum TW3, but i still like how the Buds2 Pro sounds and more comfort in my ears.
Which has better bass out the Three
@@Blu3_777 Sony Wf-1000xm4.

@@TomyJaya365 weird I thought my buds2 pro had better bass. Thanks for the response
The buds 2 pro is available for me for $150 I definitely went for that offer one of my favorite tws. Can't go wrong for that price either
Yeah Amazon Australia has these for $150, just got them myself
I got the Buds2 pro for about $100, cheaper than the FE!
How's the loudness on that guys? What's the volume level u guys usually listen at? I had oppo Air 5 pro and 3/15 was enough for me, but with the 2 pros i am at 6/15. Idk whether it's normal or mine's faulty, cause I expected a bit more loudness as these are Samsung's premium.
I got buds2 pro from Amazon lndia in 70 percent discount...a stealer deal for me...
@@pj27got in 50 dollars.
As a buds plus user i love the wingtip design of the FEs but that double tap edge for volume control is a must for me.
Also in my country the 2 pros cost similar if not less The FEs somehow with bank discounts. Will be mainly using this for Gym. Hopefully it fits well in my ear.
Did it fit in your ear? I am a buds plus user as well.
thanks for comparing the cases too. Im already sold on the FE from before, since I love the wingtips of my OG Buds. I would sacrifice some high end features for the wingtips.
Great review, but no mention on battery life, from what I understand the Buds 2 offer the longest and the FE the shortest, For a lot of people this is veryt important
Great video! It cleared up a lot of the confusion I had. Thanks!
Awesome video. thanks for all the info. Getting a S24 and a set of FE are free with the phone so i wanted to know if I should retire my old buds and now I know I can. Thanks so much again
I never write comments, but i feel like i have to. I thought about buying the Pro Version but decided to get the fe buds because of the video .
They. Are. Awesome .
The fit ,the sounds, the Look. I love them. 10/10
Thanks alot
So glad you love them! That's why I put these together! Thank you for breaking the no comment rule to let me know. A great comment to wake up too 🙏
Thank you for this comparison. Got all the info I needed.
Thank you for this video. I bought the Buds Pro 2 but returned them after a few hours. I just could not get a good fit despite trying all the different tips. The better SQ was wasted due to the poor fit.
I've now bought the Fe based on your video. I'm coming from the Buds+ which fit me perfectly so I'm hoping these will do so too.
Good review explained well and didnt automatically bias toward the more exe ones and gave an honest opinion 👍
Thank you so much for this review!
Nicely done! Glad I subscribed! I still love my buds 2 pros.. 😊
Thanks for the awesome video - just bought the buds 2 pro (I know way too late) and they are amazing !
I'm wearing my Buds2 and I've been listening to them all night at Work and: THE BASS is deep and rich down to 15Hz, also I do listen to Bass Music with them.
so, for someone that lost their buds 2 but still has the case, the buds fe are just the obvious choice, since I can use the buds 2 case if I want the wireless charging
Loved this review...I have the both the 2 and the 2 pro. I use the pros right now, of course, with the 2's as a back up in case I lose them or whatever...anyway I have the FE's ordered and on the way. Got em cause I KNEW the wing tip design would fit better for me like the past model with that design. My only question is do the FE's have the "read text out loud" feature in them cause I really like that with my Pro's. 🤔
Can I buy the 2 off ya?
great detailed review. the only thing i'm left wondering is mic performance in a noisy environment.
FE is the best. Look on rtings 👍
Thank you for this video. I lost my buds+ and was going to upgrade. From your video i decided to just replace my buds+ with a new pair of buds+. I use them all the time outside and on my bike so i want the wingtips and i charge everything wirelessly.
Thanks, Daniel. Great accent!
Hello, compared to the Redmi buds 5 pros, which ones better in audio? Thank you.
Thanks so much for your video 😍😍😍
You have earned a subscriber
. Great video
Great video man..i found out that i was wearing my buds fe wrong, i.e., the wing tips underneath the lower crus of antihelix, and it was painful. I was about to return them but now got the trick. Thanx✌🏽
This channel is underrated. Anyway great video. Can you tell me the average screen on time of s23 fe, does it last full day ?
Thank you. I know I rate it 😂
The S23 FE can get between 6-8 hours of SOT and can easily last the day!
Thanks for making this video! I'm still using a Galaxy Buds+ and was thinking about upgrading just for the sake of upgrading. These buds have been in use for the past couple of years and work amazingly still.
But now that I've seen this I think I'll keep using them until they stop working. I like the wingtip design but just as importantly I like being able to wirelessly charge my buds overnight.
I have the buds fe and they're just like my Buds plus. Active noise cancelling- NOT. Fit for the FE , I had to put on the larger ear pieces. Looks Fe and Buds+ - I don't see any other than FE can take the wing off. Worth 99.99, not a chance. I'm listening to this on my Buds+, can barely tell any difference with the FE. I was miffed after trying the FE because the noise cancellation just is bad, none existant, but I chose not to return them.
Buds fe has 1 speaker.... and buds + has 2 way speaker, so its worse sound quality, just bass? Thats all i hear, so its not worth it. Buds + is still alive after 3 years...
What I own like atleast 10 pairs, idk how you can only own 1 tf.?!
@@Blu3_777 because whats the point of having 10 pairs
@@privxete4089 when one dies I use other. And they have different use cases.
But honestly I, I, I, im just crying out out for helppp, I think I got earbud addiction 🥺
The lack of wireless charging on the FE is a deal breaker for me. My Buds 2 Pro came with a wireless charger that I dont want to stop using. This seems like a baffling design choice.
Maybe they had to cut some features to cut the price too. They're called FE and not PRO for a reason.
Thank you for this video, helped me decide on what to get and went with the fe :)
You will not be disappointed!
Very informative!!! Thanks!!!
great comparison mate
What is the name on the app , the galaxy buds not recognizing nor look the same for I use the Samsung live & G2 app
I've got Buds2 Pro to my S22 Ultra and use them since then. I've got Buds FE to s24 Ultra and compering them FE's are a piece of crap.
The Buds 2 Pro sound is deeper, the bass is very nice. I sold the FE's and I don't regret using Pro 2
Yeah but the call quality on the FE in a noisy environment is way better than the 2 Pro which isn't all that better than it's predecessor. Every reviewer harps about sound quality but ignores call quality
Is the 360 audio the Dolby version of Samsung? And is there a Dolby atmos in the buds 2?
I personally love my buds 2. Got them over the pros because I heard the pros have a worse fit then the smaller buds 2. I am also use to wearing huge ear buds that stick pretty long out or that are just big and noticeable. I wanted a set of smaller buds that sounded great and that are really not noticeable while I am at work and they work and fir great. Yes fe are a better value but the buds 2 are just a better ear bud. BTW they where 99 dollars last holiday season when I got them, and you bet they will be this year. Just get the buds 2 over the fes lol
Try soundcore liberty 4NC brother...l have both...buds 2pro as well as liberty 4NC...
@@gudlutripathy3283If you don't mind, can you tell me how are the comparisons and differences between the two? I know the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are better. But how far better? I've been tempted to buy Liberty 4 NC because of their bang for the buck.
@@gudlutripathy3283which one you do you like more? Can you please provide a detailed comparison? Like sound quality, comfort, call quality and overall experience?
Same, the Buds2 are the most comfortable fit for my ears of any earbuds I've ever used. They're great all rounders for everyday use.
@@praveenagarwal8159 ahhh buds 2. For my ears
I already own the buds 2. Would you consider the buds fe an upgrade or just stick with the buds 2?
There is no sound upgrade, but the comfort and fit is far better
Hey Daniel, I have all 3 also. I mainly use the the Buds2 Pro for flights for the brilliant ANC. My daily drivers are the Buds Live as they stay in the ear and allow external sound. Perfect for exercising or low noise areas. When I got the Buds FE and tried the fit, I didn't think I would be going back to the Buds2 Pro at all. The sound is good in the FE's, so very passible for daily use and flights with the wing tips. The only drawback being the lack of wireless charging. Oh, and I used to use the Buds2 a bit, but I think the FE's might take over.
Which one would u say is better between the pro and fe? I can get either of them for the same price but idk which one to get. Fe sounds appealing cuz of the wing tips for when i walk home on the daily and the noise cancelling being better(?). Whilst the pros have better audio and better software and the 360 degree microphone
@@conglomerate127 The Pro are a better set for pretty much everything except the fit (all the extra features, including the wireless charging). The ANC is about the same, but with the wing tips you are pretty much guaranteed that the FE won't fall out.
For me (only my opinion), I'd probably use the FE when walking, but stick to the Pro on a flight.
I haven't done a straight FE vs Pro ANC comparison, but the FE ANC was great when I tried it. I vacuumed my car with them on and barely heard the vacuum while listening to a Podcast. Last time I used the Pro to do the same, the ANC was similar, but they moved in my ears a bit while moving my head around a lot.
I guess it just depends on your use case...
@@conglomerate127 I did a test earlier on the ANC and sound quality. Buds2 Pro are definitely better, sound quality is great and the ANC is also.
The fit really is the only thing that the FE would do better with the wingtips.
12:20 just a note, to get that to work consistently, you have to double tap from behind your ear. I'm currently using the buds+ so not sure if it's the same for the newer models.
I had the buds live that I got given for free then traded them in for the buds 2pro and it's been great. Love the matte finish of the buds and inside but preferably none matte finish on the outside.
Samsung with it's buds have been solid. Black and white colours timeless but would love to see more colour options.
Traded em in tf? I mean own the buds2 pro but I also own 3 pairs of buds live I would never trade em in. Trippnn smh
@@Blu3_777 Getting Buds 2 pro cheaper with a free wireless charger was a good deal.
Keep these videos up man! Love the information you give
Thank 🙏
have you tried using the wireless-chargeable cases of the other buds to see if they work with the FE?
I have! Unfortunately they don't work in them
@@techwithbenefits oh, sad. thanks for responding!
Very good review 👍
I'm using the galaxy buds+ since 3-4 years now and they still work perfectly. Looking for a change though. Now my most used feature by far is actually the volume control by double tapping the left (down) or right (up) ear. This so handy for quickly changing volume even if you wear a hoody for example.
Not sure if I missed it, but do the Buds FE have that feature too? How can you control volume with those?
Same way
Thank you. Very helpful.
Audio quality is my priority for earbuds I'd go with buds2 pro
Thanks for the video!
How is the Bluetooth signal range on them (all three models) in case you get physically far away from the phone with the Buds in your ears?
I'm glad you made this video because I am hung up on the FE or Pro 2 price isn't an issue since they are in a range I can afford, but the FE has got me with it's wing tips, price point, and not being that different from my buds 2 which I lost the left one since I use the left one the most since it stay in my ear the longest than the right one. the Pro 2 is also pulling me towards it since it 1up the buds 2 and I am wonder how long and that stay in the ear against the FE..... with that black spot on the end to helps it stay in longer. I'm still racking my head since they are low priced and both are good, but thanks for the video.
Which did you get? The usp of the FE is after price, the better noise handling during calls.
hello thanks for great review.
i am thinking to buy buds 2 pro , but one question i have , i am using edifire neckband and i have noticed that , due to it's noise cancellation , it is removing the "hmm" sound which i make when i say silent yes or thinking expression by making a 'hmm" sound. but it doesn't detect that and it removed completely and i have to tell caller on other side that yes yes i am on call.
may i know how is pro and Fe in that low voice performance. that is a big point for me to buy new TWS.
a fast reply would be great. thanks again for great review.
Great video, thank you so much for your content! QUICK QUESTION: I have the Buds 2, will upgrading to buds 2 PRO be a better noice cancellation / microphone combo?
I live in a noisy place and the Buds 2 is amazing, wondering if I should upgrade to the Pro version
Great and so usefull review , thank you
Is it all these extra functions like 360 sound only working with Samsung phones? Or just working for all brands phones like Google Pixel? Im considering buds 2 pro and pixel buds pro.
watched your video and it helped me pick the buds2 pro, thanks a bunch 🙂
Would the FE be a big sound improvement over the old Buds plus?
I have the Galaxy buds pro but they just don't fit. And they hurt my ears trying to smash them in. They do sound good though.
I have the buds 2 and wear them all day, and are very comfortable and light and have a great sound .
Is there a big sound’s difference between the fe and 2 pro?
Could you help with info on which of the FE or Pro works better for zoom/microsoft teams video calls? I always have an issue with my audio clarity for recipients on the other side. Or my own voice at my end is muffled when the ANC is on
Hey man great video thanks! I have one question tough, do they have any noticable latency when watching a video? Like that you see them talking but hear it slightly later? or is it barely noticable
I'm a tad confused about the 360 audio section of your video. I own the Buds 2, and they do in fact offer 360 audio. Did I misunderstand what you were trying to say?
Probably a bit late response but the difference is Pro version uses head tracking when the buds 2 only have 360 audio without the head tracking tech.
