"amazing, amazing, amazing ANC performance for earbuds! ... not even close in ANC performance vs these (Bose QuietComfort Earbuds (2024)) ... I, for ANC, prefer the approach Bose takes, blocking out pretty much all frequencies."
"Noise cancellation is solid. ... It's on the level of the Bose QC Earbuds, my previous daily driver, and actually sounds cleaner and feels better in the ear. ... Yes! I was also surprised by how good ANC is compared to the Bose buds. ... 10 ... The ANC on the PBP2 is better. ... Mine are much, much better than both my PBP1 and my Bose QCs."
"noise cancelling headphones are such a blessing for me. i've always been sensitive to noise and i get overstimulated easy when out in public. they give me silence and privacy when I need it. worth every cent!"

"I put them in my ear, put the helmet on, then do one final “push” with my finger to seat them in my ear for the ride. ... The batteries die before they work out of my ear."
"they are so comfortable that both I and my husband have had to feel our ears to check whether we were still wearing them."
"Also super bonus I've never head banged with earphones this hard besides with these soundcores, they stick to me like glue even when I'm in a metal mood and I'm headbanging for a good hour."

"Literally couldn't think of any pair of IEMs + dongle dacs could sound as analytical as the C3P+ for around $70. ... detail is just sooo much better. The C3P+ is just leagues ahead the I5 in terms of detail and resolution. ... the C3P+ is actually the closest sounding one to really expensive iems or headphone that I have."
"delivers the full package here. ... betting the house regarding this on this pair was fully worth it. ... It matches up (I would not say surpasses) a lot of wired in-ear monitors within this price bracket and slightly above. ... The prowess it shows in keeping the instrument separation clean is something that I really, really appreciate myself for buying this pair, not to mention the rumbly yet controlled, precise lows keep on coming and the highs soar without spice, without hurting your ears."
"Nothing short of a home run, here- the Ear once again brings me all; the way the bass hits on this track is very impactful but not bloated, punchy but not overpowering, and Kendrick’s powerful vocals shine through bright, while I enjoyed the way the Sax keeps on coming in at the right junctions of the song, and the way the cymbals play out on this track is probably one of the best I have heard through amongst all the gear that I have owned and currently own- the first in a wireless, and one of the few if I consider all. ... the timbre sounds natural and uncoloured"

"If you care about call quality and noise cancelling during calls then Huawei is the the way and only way to go ... Best overall for calls ... nothing comes close to the Huawei free clips in terms of call quality! ... mic quality for calls is mileeeees ahead on the Huawei."
"I wanted really good call quality because I take a lot of calls when I'm on a call in central City, and they have been amazing. ... I take a call in a cafe full of people and crying kids and the other person can't hear a thing"
"I can definitely tell that the mics have improved. The mics in general are more targeted. You can now have ambient sound amp voices in front of you. And I find that Bixby catches what I say better. ... Good. They really shined in times sqaure"

"Crazy good from the jump! ... When you factor in they're only $99 and go toe-to-toe with Bose QC Ultra at $299, this is the deal of the year!"
"Can't recommend them enough for the value, sound like $200 earphones."

"the noise esp for shooter/online games are terrible"
"The only device I notice audio latency is with the quest 2, and 3. It's required to have wired there imo. I can't think straight in a fps if my audio isn't in sync with gun shots, it really fucks with me."
"If you are into FPS games and ms latencies, the AirPods are gonna irk you terribly."

"Do you also have a high frequency noise when you're doing a phonecall with the JBLs? ... So weird that this hissing noise is only appearing when making a phone call. I haven't heard that noise in any other scenario. ... I unfortunately have it when just connecting via Bluetooth to my Androids or Windows PCs. ... Does anyone else has a high pitched beeping while on phone calls with the JBL Pro Tour 3? Really annoying and only noticeable during phone calls."
"it's not effective in noisy environments. ... You have to speak very loudly."
"couldn't use them for phone calls at all. ... Sound quality on phone calls was still just bad. ... I have to put them out to be able to make a call."

"I love the sound and comfort of the Galaxy FE, but I have an iPhone. I bought an older used Android phone just for the Galaxy FE."
"if you own an iPhone buying them is pointless. ... you will not be able to update them, eq them, or change any settings due to the lack of the app. ... I owned Buds 2 with iPhone and I had to use Windows PC to set them and update them xD"
"they don't support apt-x so they sound best with galaxy phones (which i have)."

"they got wet and died ... which sucks for 200$ ear buds"

"The sound quality with ANC is awful."
"they can't compete when it comes to canceling out the airplane engines."
"no noise cancelation other than the fit itself and turning off ambient noise"
I use the Buds 3 Pro but really miss my FEs. I wont switch back, just miss em.
r/S24Ultra • What wireless earbuds are you guys using? ->Galaxy Buds Bro 2and Galaxy Buds Fe. On my S24U. Battery on both are great & they sound good.
r/S24Ultra • What wireless earbuds are you guys using? ->I absolutely loved my Buds 2. About two weeks ago, I was on a boat, and one of them fell out of my ear and plopped into the Aegean Sea. I am now enjoying my new Buds FE.
r/galaxybuds • Galaxy Buds Plus ->Samsung galaxy ear buds i got when I got my phone through a deal
r/SteamDeck • What Earbuds do you use ->I have the same phone. Bought buds3 FE last week (after some researching). Sound is okay for wireless earbuds (I have 7hz zero and Final e3000 IEMs). Battery drains faster than I expected though it's more than enough for my 45 min commute which I bought them for. I saw that the hinge of FE was plastic, not steel like pro's. Didn't drop them yet - not planning to :)
r/galaxybuds • Need sound quality + long battery life from my buds. Phone: Samsung A35 ->The buds fe fit my ears better. My pro 2 always fall out.
r/galaxybuds • [UPDATE] Galaxy Buds 2 Pro after two years of heavy use ->I have the bose ultra open earbuds and love them for the design, ease of use and sound quality. I had previously used beats powerbeats pro, samsung earbuds fe and airpods pro and realized running isolated with noise cancelling has a lot of risks but there is nothing better than the bose in the market that lets you be sound aware as well as enjoy the music. Got good deal during BF so that helped
r/AskRunningShoeGeeks • Best running earphones/headphones 2025 ->I love the FE, great pair of earbuds.
r/galaxybuds • Samsung Buds FE or Realme Buds Air 6? ->No, only the buds FE.
r/galaxybuds • Samsung Buds FE or Realme Buds Air 6? ->Galaxy buds Fe are pretty alright. They have a gaming mode for low latency. Good sound quality. Good ANC. Good battery. And veryyy reliable.
r/GalaxyS24Ultra • What are the best bluetooth earbuds under $100 that are actually supported by the S24U? ->If you can increase your budget, I would recommend Samsung Buds FE. Best in the range. (approx 13k)
r/PakistaniTech • Best Wireless Earbuds Under 10000 – Any Recommendations? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
