i recently ordered Buds FE. To be honest, FE is worth to buy than others in terms of price-performance. Getting buds 2 pro won't change anything in my opinion
@@amoorxd5432 the only con i have read online was buds FE is not durable to water. İt is said that even 1 drop is enough to kill it İ mean, no earbud survives to water, so its not a problem to me and i dont use it on rainy days Rest qualities are highly good
Bro am having buds2 pro and thinking to buy buds FE are the comfortable as bud2 Bcz i use em for workout ☠️ and how r they going since u r using it from 5 months
I am using a Samsung S21 model phone. I'm also looking for earbuds to listen to more jazz. They say that the sound stage of the buds 2 model is more environmental and the sound of the fe model is narrower. How is the sound performance from the cymbals and snare drum on the buds 2 and FE models? I'm looking for earbuds with clean, balanced, better sound separation rather than very strong bass. Unfortunately, I don't have the chance to try them where I am. I was thinking of buying buds2, which do you recommend for jazz and clean tones and better clarity, buds fe or buds 2? thank you (i'm not looking for gimmicks like 360 audio or anc. i'm looking for just music quality at home listening) ps: i dont have budget for pro model :(
I'm quite happy with how the Buds FE sounds for big band jazz music. Not sure if you'll like how it sounds for your specific taste of jazz music though. BTW, if you're okay with wired earphones then maybe look at some brands like Kiwi Ears or Moondrop? I do have a video coming later though
Hi Kok Kee! Great review on the FE Buds. If you've read the online reviews, back when the Buds 2 and Buds2 Pro were released, a lot of people complained about nickel sensitivity / ear irritation / ear infection when wearing the Buds 2 and Buds2 Pro when worn. Not sure if it was due to different materials used, but it was quite a common issue. Do you experience any irritation after wearing the Buds 2 / Buds2 Pro for extended periods of time? I heard that the Buds FE used a different material, so users do not experience any irritation. I'm torn between buying Samsung's Buds to stay within the ecosystem, vs buying Sony buds, but the Sony buds have their own host of issues (battery drain)
Hey yo, thanks for watching! I am totally unaware of this issue at all. I'm always testing stuff without external influence so that I can get my own opinions out. I've not experienced any ear irritation, tbh. Mild itch - yes, but definitely no irritation or infection before. I'd say disregard the ecosystem. Most of the special features are only available for Samsung devices only, so if you don't use a Samsung phone then... it's quite a waste. Quick tip - Samsung is perpetually on sale, so get them at a discount. Just don't get scammed with fakes.
@@NasiLemakTech thanks for the reply! I actually own a A52s, and so far, plan to stay on Samsung for the time being, as I've used their phones for quite some time. I have a pair of Samsung Buds+ and I've been loving them since. Looking to upgrade, but the aforemention issues always held me back. Either way, in true Malaysian fashion, which one is first to have a big sale then I grab first. If the features of the Samsung buds outweigh what I really need from a pair of Buds, then I'll consider other buds, with potentially better features. Thanks again ya, Kok Kee.
Kinda depends if you want to get the Buds FE for the sound quality or others for the features. TBH, I still prefer the FE now. I would recommend the Buds 2 Pro but Samsung never had any discounts for them. Crazy!
Just got my Buds FE this January 2024. I had to change the ear tips to alternate tips that I had lying around because sadly the quality of the tips included is NOT very good. I guess they have made them softer to avoid the issues you mentioned, but in the process they have made the tips worse in quality. Hope this helps.
The 5i sound better with a wider sound stage, better instrument separation. But for everything else the fe is better anc, ambient sound, battery life, the case build quality itself.
What about akg sound? Fe don't have, any difference at all....? I'm planning to buy Fe or buds2pro lot of confusion... My preference Best music experience that's All..... hope I get answer...@@NasiLemakTech

The buds fe and the buds 2 are more less the same and one should just get the cheaper
Yeah
İm still happy with Buds FE

Rest qualities are highly good
@@amoorxd5432 Yes, but for its price, Buds Fe is better, and if you look at the sites, Buds Fe has higher points than Buds 2.

Great Review ! To the point! Very helpful.

Amazing review
Good comparison 👍
Hows the base
Great
Does the buds 2 pro have a better soumd qaulity than the fe ?
Similar but I do like the FE's sound signature
Any advice wich your choice between buds fe vs huwaei freebuds 5i
Never tried that Huawei stuff
The 5i sound better with a wider sound stage, better instrument separation. But for everything else the fe is better anc, ambient sound, battery life, the case build quality itself.
I had both, for any queries,you can ask
What about akg sound? Fe don't have, any difference at all....? I'm planning to buy Fe or buds2pro lot of confusion... My preference
Best music experience that's All..... hope I get answer...@@NasiLemakTech
