    Today I was wondering if the SSC codec works on Galaxy Book Laptops, turns out it doesn't. Only compatible Samsung phones and tablets unfortunately. I would expect eventually they will add that feature.

    Ive owned the galaxy buds live for last 2 years and loved them...the other day i saw Amazon was selling them for 115 bucks! I ordered immediately and they came the next day and ive been in HEAVEN!!! Holy crap the reviews are spot on saying how good they are especially sound quality! Music is so well balanced its insane what ive been missing!!! Great review!

    Thank you for the more in depth review. It helped me decide if these were the headphones for me or not. I found it to be more in depth as you pointed out things that a daily or frequent user would notice like singing along and the headphones thinking you are talking.

      I recently bought this buds because I used to use my heavy IEMs (moondrop arias) with a heavy upgrade cable while working out or doing capoeira drills and let me tell you, the cable's so twisty and gets in the way haha. So cool to finally be free from the cables and go back to doing my favorite spinny spin martial art - with music 😊

      @VladimirKostek yeah, I traded in my s21 as it started to have abysmal battery life. I plan on doing some YT vids and figured I would spend the extra 500 or so to get a class leading camera system, and a bigger battery.

      I do run occasionally with them or shoot a basketball around and they have held up fine with the ip rating. No marks whatsoever on the buds they've never fallen out of my ear as I chose a tip with good fitment! My case does have some slight scuffs but I also keep them in the same pocket as my keys

      Hey Shen, I haven't scientifically tested it but I'd guess with like 30 mins on the phone it will charge the case maybe 30-40% which then passes the charge to the headphones. Would you be interested in me making a youtube shorts video on this?

    • @VladimirKostek
      @VladimirKostek  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I upgraded from the buds 2 like I showed and the difference was immediate. I still like my buds 2 as secondary headphones when I travel but it is noticeable. When using SSC it is even more of a difference. If you get them on sale it is worth the upgrade imo, if you have a fine-tuned ear for music. For most people I think the buds 2 are overall very good. Hope that helps!

    Waiting on the Buds Pro 3 - hopefully they spend more money on the actual musicality of these buds, they have so much going for them with the Samsung Scalable Codec in the eco system, if they get them on par with the Denon sound signature they will have a real winner.
