  • No true multipoint Bluetooth pairing

When Samsung launched its original Galaxy Buds Pro noise-canceling earbuds, one of its headline marketing messages was the attention it paid to their sound quality. Indeed, they delivered on that front, but a certain subset of users, including me, found them to be a less than ideal fit for their ears. In my case, none of the included ear tips allowed me to get a tight seal, so I had to swap in a larger set of tips from a rival set of earbuds. So, needless to say, I was curious to see what Samsung’s engineers had come up with for the second-gen Galaxy Buds 2 Pro ($230, £219, AU$349), suspecting they’d address that fit issue.  

Sure enough, they did. The first thing you’ll notice about the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro — which are launching alongside the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Galaxy Z Fold 4 — is that they simply have a better all-around design than their predecessor. Not only are they 15% smaller, according to Samsung, but they weigh slightly less (5.5 grams per bud versus 6.3 grams) and have a matte finish on both the buds and case that gives them a nicer feel and makes them a bit more grippy.

That makes the compact case a little less likely to slip out of your hand and — more importantly — it helps keep the buds in your ears a little more securely. And thanks to their new shape and smaller size, I was able to get a tight seal with the largest set of included ear tips and didn’t have to supply my own. Additionally, the earbuds don’t stick out of your ears as much as the original Galaxy Buds Pro did, and they look more discreet. They’re available in three colors — Bora purple, white and graphite — and while I can’t say they’ll fit all ears equally well, they should provide a better fit to more ears than the original Galaxy Buds Pro. 

Proprietary high-res audio and other Galaxy-exclusive features

Aside from the revamped design, Samsung is touting the buds’ improved noise canceling and support for 24-bit high-resolution audio. The catch is to get that 24-bit audio you’ll need a Galaxy device equipped with Samsung’s One UI 4.0 and a music streaming service like Qobuz, Tidal or Amazon Music that streams high-res audio tracks. On all other devices, including Android phones and iPhones, the buds default to the AAC audio codec. They use Bluetooth 5.3. 

Alas, the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro don’t support the more common AptX Adaptive audio codec for Android devices, only the new Samsung Seamless Hi-Fi codec, which Samsung says delivers 256x more sound data than 16-bit (CD quality) audio. Numbers like that are a bit deceptive because, based on my experience, you’re really only going to notice a slight difference when streaming higher bit-rate tracks. But more on that after I round out the rest of the feature set.

The buds didn’t stick out of my ears too much.

Like their predecessor, these have touch controls (you can turn certain ones on or off, or you can turn them all off) along with an option to activate hands-free Bixby, Samsung’s voice assistant. Additionally, Samsung’s 360 Audio virtual surround feature (with head tracking) returns in an “Enhanced” version and now works with a variety of Galaxy devices out of the gate, though it’s not compatible with other Android devices. It works along the same lines as Apple’s spatial audio feature for AirPods and can enhance your movie and TV watching experience, though it doesn’t seem to be as pronounced Apple’s spatial audio, which I think is slightly better overall. It also works with music or any audio you’re listening to.  

The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are IPX7 water-resistant, which means they can withstand being fully submerged in 1-meter deep water for up to 30 minutes. I had no problem running with them and they didn’t slip out of my ears.

Like their predecessors, battery life is rated at five hours with noise canceling on and eight hours with it off at moderate volume levels, plus you get about three additional charges from the case (it charges via USB-C and wirelessly). You could quibble that five hours is pretty mediocre and that no improvements have been made to the battery life, but it’s hard to shrink buds while increasing battery life. Also, when you drop the buds in the case, there’s a quick charge feature that nets you an hour of use with a five-minute charge and double that with a 10-minute charge. 

Samsung says the buds have an improved air vent (to relieve pressure) and wind shield.

Sensors detect when the buds are in your ears and will pause your music when you take both buds out of your ears and but won’t resume playback when you put them back in without you tapping on one of the buds (you can use a single bud while leaving the other one in the case). Additionally, you can opt to activate a “voice detect” mode in the Galaxy Wearable companion app that automatically turns off noise canceling and switches to “ambient sound” mode when you speak, allowing you to hear the outside world and engage in a conversation with someone. Sony offers a similar feature with its WF-1000XM4 and LinkBuds S earbuds.

Another new feature worth mentioning has nothing to do with audio. You can toggle on the “neck stretch reminders” setting that detects your head position and alerts you when you’ve bent your head downward for 10 minutes. As I’ve written this review, I’ve been alerted several times to stretch my neck.  

Like the AirPods and some other earbuds these have a find-my-buds feature that Samsung calls SmartThings Find. It can tell you your location when the buds were last connected to your device, but it doesn’t offer the more precise tracking capabilities of Apple’s enhanced Find My in its latest AirPods. 

The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have three microphones on each earbud along with ear-detection sensors.

Lastly, like their predecessor and the more affordable Galaxy Buds 2, the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro don’t offer true multipoint Bluetooth pairing that allows you to pair them with two devices, such as a phone and computer, at the same time. But Samsung says they seamlessly pair with all the Samsung devices logged into your Samsung account, including Samsung TVs built in 2022 or later and Samsung Galaxy Books laptops built after 2020. 

The Buds 2 Pro offer automatic switching between those devices. So if, for instance, a call comes in on your phone as you’re watching a movie on your Tab S8 tablet, the audio will automatically switch to your phone when you answer the call. That’s similar to how Apple’s AirPods auto pair with any Apple devices logged into your iCloud account. Note that I haven’t thoroughly tested the auto-switching feature with many Samsung devices (because I only own a few) so I can’t confirm exactly how reliable it is. I spent more time manually switching my audio between a Galaxy Flip 3 and non-Samsung devices.   

Impressive all-around performer

Samsung says it’s improved the noise canceling on the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro by 40% (it calls it “Intelligent ANC”). I found it an improvement on the original Galaxy Buds Pro, but noise-canceling performance is affected by how tight a seal you get from the ear tips (as is sound quality), so your perception of how much it’s improved may vary by how good a seal you get.

I thought the noise canceling was close but not quite there, compared with the noise canceling of the Sony WF-1000XM4, but it did a good job muffling a variety of noise on the streets of New York and underground in the subway. You can turn the noise canceling off or activate ambient mode, the equivalent of Apple’s transparency mode, which I thought sounded natural. But there’s no setting to adjust noise canceling levels; it automatically adapts to your environment.

The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are equipped with two-way drivers (10mm woofer, 5.3mm tweeter), which is nice, and three microphones, two of which are beam-forming for voice calls. I paired them with a Galaxy Z Flip 3, iPhone 13 Pro and Google Pixel 4 XL and streamed music using Qobuz. I also streamed some movies from Google Play and Netflix.

According to Samsung, there’s no way to check whether you’re getting 24-bit audio (nothing indicates whether you are — or aren’t), but if your audio setup meets the requirements listed — a Galaxy phone with Android 8.0 or higher and One UI 4.0 or higher with at least 1.5GB of RAM — you’ll be using the Samsung Seamless Codec, which transmits in 24-bit, assuming your audio files support it. (Qobuz files do.) I find it irritating that there’s no way to tell what bit rate you’re streaming at, but I’ll have to take Samsung’s word that I was getting 24-bit audio. 

I did notice a slight difference when streaming with the Galaxy Z Flip 3. However, using the iPhone 13 Pro, the sound quality was also very good with an amply wide soundstage. I went back and forth with Spoon’s Knock Knock Knock track and a few other songs. The Flip 3’s sound came across slightly more accurately (a bit more clarity) with a touch more detail and depth. The bass is punchy and well-defined and I didn’t experience any noticeable distortion at higher volumes. In short, they’re excellent-sounding buds, though I’m not sure they’re superior to other top earbuds in their price range, including the Pixel Buds Pro, Beats Fit Pro and Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3.

I mostly went with the default sound setting, though you can tweak the signature profile in the Galaxy Wearable app with some preset equalizer settings, including a bass boost setting. The truth is a lot of these premium earbuds are starting to sound pretty similar and it’s really the fit — and how they fit your particular ears — that’s going to make you like one more than another.

I’ll finish by saying that once again Samsung has delivered a set of Galaxy buds that work quite well as a headset for making calls. They have good voice pick-up from the beam-forming microphones while providing good background noise reduction. Callers said they could hear me relatively clearly in the noisy streets of New York and the buds did a decent job reducing wind noise. They’re in the upper echelons in terms of voice-calling performance.  

Galaxy Buds 2 Pro final thoughts

For better or worse, Galaxy Buds have always been an accessory for Galaxy smartphones and, as a result, more geared toward owners of Galaxy devices. The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are no exception. They’re excellent earbuds, but you lose some of their key features if you’re not a Galaxy device owner. For that reason, it’s easy to see them as the Samsung equivalent of the AirPods Pro, which may very well get some sort of high-resolution wireless streaming option with the arrival of the AirPods Pro 2 that will likely use proprietary Apple technology that only works with its devices.

By comparison, the Pixel Buds Pro have fewer features geared exclusively toward Pixel owners (virtual surround), and such features as hands-free Google Assistant and true multipoint Bluetooth pairing are available across all Android devices. However, the Pixel Buds have no enhanced audio codec support, which may be important if you’re convinced it makes a big difference. I personally think it makes only a slight difference with this class of earbuds, which may have a premium price tag but aren’t high-end.   

The bigger question will be whether it’s worth upgrading to the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro if you already own a pair of Galaxy Buds, particularly the original Galaxy Buds Pro. I think that will largely depend on what price you can get the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro for. While their list price is $230, Samsung is currently offering trade-in deals (any Galaxy Buds in any condition) that bring their price down to around $155 and you can often get deals on them as part of a bundle with a new Galaxy phone.  

For me anyway, while the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro offer some small performance improvements over their predecessor, their design is the biggest upgrade. That makes them the best Galaxy Buds yet.

              The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II Truly Wireless are the best earbuds for phone calls we’ve tested. Their mic performance may not be the best on this list, but they have a premium design and solid extra features for casual use. Their noise cancelling (ANC) system cuts down an outstanding amount of background noise around you, helping you focus on your call. With the ANC on, their battery lasts well over six hours continuously. Their carrying case also offers three extra charges if you need it.

              Although the mic is far from your mouth, it can still clearly capture your voice. However, this distance impacts noise handling, or the ability of the mic to separate speech from background noise. As a result, your voice can be drowned out by background noise, so if you’re taking important calls, it’s best to do so from quiet places.

              The buds have a more bass-heavy sound profile out of the box than what we measured due to the shape of our test rig’s ear canals, so subjectively, you’ll hear more thump, rumble, and boom than our graph shows. This extra bass muddies vocals and instruments, but you can customize their sound via their companion app’s graphic EQ and presets. Unfortunately, they don’t support multi-device pairing, so you can’t stay connected to your PC and smartphone simultaneously.

              Consider the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 if you want something more affordable without sacrificing features. These premium buds have an auto-accept call feature that you can turn on and off via their app, making taking calls on the go a little easier. Their mic also does a better job than the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II Truly Wireless regarding noise handling. While speech can still be drowned out by really loud sounds, like inconsistent heavy traffic, you’ll still be heard clearly if you’re making calls near people talking. The mic’s recording quality is passable, so while your voice lacks depth, it’s still intelligible.

              Although their ANC doesn’t outperform our top pick, it can still help reduce distracting sounds around you and make it easier to focus on your call. Their bass-heavy sound profile is great if you want to listen to thumpy, rumbly music in between calls, but their fairly flat mid-range ensures that speech sounds clear and present. Using the app’s EQ and presets, you can fine-tune their sound to suit your needs. Unlike the Bose, they even support multi-device pairing, which is nice if you want to take calls from your phone while receiving audio from your PC.

              They last for over eight hours continuously, and their carrying case supplies an extra three charges, which is handy in a pinch. If you’re an iOS user, consider the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd generation) Truly Wireless. They’re more comfortable and have features like an h2 chip for seamless pairing with your iOS devices. However, their mic’s recording quality is worse, and your voice sounds thin and muffled.

              The best Bluetooth earbuds for phone calls in the mid-range we’ve tested are the Nothing Ear (2) Truly Wireless. Although their ANC doesn’t perform quite as well as the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3’s, these sleek buds have a stem design, which places their microphone closer to your mouth than buds without it. As a result, their integrated mic offers a slightly better recording quality than the Sennheiser and shines when it comes to noise handling. The mic does a good job of separating speech from ambient noise, so your voice is clear, even in environments like a busy office.

              With the ANC on, they last over five and a half hours, which is shorter than the previous picks, and may not get you through long days without a recharge. Luckily, their carrying case holds four extra charges if needed. Their sound is versatile enough for most kinds of audio content too. You can adjust their sound using their app’s graphic EQ and presets. If you’re looking for buds with more call-centric features, consider the Jabra Elite 7 Pro True Wireless instead. Their app offers sidetone, which allows you to monitor your voice during a call, and EQ presets that affect how the other person’s voice sounds. However, the mic’s noise handling is significantly worse.

              Shopping on a budget? Then you’ll want to check out the TOZO NC7 Truly Wireless, the best wireless earbuds for phone calls at this price point. At the low end of the cost scale, you can expect to make performance-based sacrifices in exchange for affordability. These buds aren’t as comfortable as the Jabra Elite 7 Pro True Wireless, and their mic’s overall performance isn’t quite as good. However, their recording quality is still decent enough for calls.

              Like other truly wireless picks, you’ll need to make calls from less noisy places to ensure your voice is easily understandable. They also last over eight hours continuously, which is good for long days at work. Their ANC system makes these buds stand out from other budget-friendly picks. If you want to focus on your call, they can easily reduce noise, like traffic from an open window of office chatter.

              On the other hand, if you’re more concerned about staying aware of your surroundings, you might prefer a mono headset like the Jabra Talk 45 Bluetooth Headset. This headset consists of one earbud with a tiny boom mic, so you can keep one ear free when you’re on the phone. It makes your voice sound clear and does a passable job of separating it from background noise. As you might expect, its sound profile isn’t good for music, but voices are reproduced accurately. It supports multi-device pairing, and you can set it up to read out your text messages when you can’t look at your phone.

              Wired earbuds are worth checking out if call quality is your top priority. While they’re more unwieldy than their truly wireless counterparts and usually lack useful features like customizability or noise cancelling, they have in-line mics rather than integrated ones. This design puts the mic closer to your mouth, making it easier for the mic to separate speech from background noise. Enter the Apple EarPods. Even though they’re a lot older and less refined than other buds on this list, they have a great recording quality. They can also separate speech from ambient noise so that you’re heard clearly.

              These budget-friendly buds may not be as well-built as the TOZO NC7 Truly Wireless since their cable is pretty flimsy, but some people may find their one-size-fits-all design more comfortable than an in-ear fit. They also have a well-balanced sound that ensures voices sound clear and natural. They lack low-bass, so they may not be ideal if you want to listen to genres like EDM or hip-hop in your downtime. They also don’t block out background noise, so it can be harder to hear your conversation well if you’re calling from a noisy office.

While this design isn’t very popular, their mic has a much better noise handling performance than the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II Truly Wireless. You might prefer them if you’re worried about background noise at the office interfering with phone calls. However, they don’t isolate you from as much noise as the Bose.

            • JBL CLUB PRO+ TWS True Wireless:
              The JBL CLUB PRO+ TWS True Wireless are mid-range buds with a decent noise isolation performance and a better recording quality than the Nothing Ear (2) Truly Wireless. Unfortunately, they don’t support multi-device pairing and lack volume controls.

            • TOZO T6 Truly Wireless:
              The TOZO T6 Truly Wireless are the cheaper sibling of the TOZO NC7 Truly Wireless. They’re similarly comfortable and well-built, and their mic has better noise handling. Unfortunately, they lack noise cancelling, and their overall battery performance is worse.

            • Turtle Beach Battle Buds:
              The Turtle Beach Battle Buds are another pair of wired gaming earbuds with a boom mic. They’re much less comfortable than the Apple EarPods, but their mic offers slightly better noise-handling performance and can passively block more ambient noise.

            • SteelSeries TUSQ:
              The SteelSeries TUSQ are wired gaming earbuds with a detachable boom mic. While their mic offers a better overall recording quality, they’re not as comfortable or neutral-sounding as the Apple EarPods.

            Our recommendations above are what we think are currently the best earbuds for making phone calls to buy for most people. We factor in the price (cheaper headphones win over pricier ones if the difference isn’t worth it), feedback from our visitors, and availability (no headphones that are difficult to find or almost out of stock everywhere).

            If you would like to choose for yourself, here is the list of all earbuds, sorted by phone call usage. Be careful not to get caught up in the details. There are no perfect headphones. Personal taste, preference, and listening habits will matter more in your selection.

            Today people are used to good sound. And we are talking not only about music (although you can’t do without it) – sound is also important for lectures, audio books, business negotiations, calls for work. Listening to audio programs and business communication is not limited to apartments and offices, people listen and communicate while traveling in transport, walking – and anywhere.

            Quality sound requires good equipment. Over-ear headphones are a very popular option. Their peculiarity lies in the fact that their ear pads – a removable part that is in direct contact with the ears – are superimposed on the ears, covering them completely or partially, and they are held on the head by a special arc.

            Like any technology, on-ear headphones have their pros and cons. The pluses include high-quality sound, achieved through an impressive frequency range and large speaker volumes. These headphones usually last a long time. They look stylish.

            At the same time, you can’t put on-ear headphones in your pocket, they are uncomfortable to wear, they are heavier than usual ones. Also, such models are discharged faster, especially if you activate any functions, for example, the noise reduction system.

            On-ear headphones are considered less hazardous to hearing than, for example, vacuum headphones. In particular, it is these that are recommended for children to buy. But in any case, you need to monitor the maximum volume. You also need to remember that listening to music in such headphones on the street should be done with the utmost care.

            How to choose on-ear headphones

            How to choose the best on-ear headphones in 2023, Dmitry Romanenko, Canyon Brand Development Director, told Komsomolskaya Pravda .

            The parameters by which users choose on-ear headphones are always individual, it all depends on what the person needs. Most often, people look at their cost, sound quality, reliability, or convenient form factor.

            Be sure to check the specifications before buying. Sensitivity, resistance – impedance, frequency range and other parameters help determine the purpose of the headphones. It is by studying these nuances that you can choose a model with surround sound for what you are looking for – games, office work, music, and so on.

            Pay attention to the type of connection – wired or wireless. The first do not need constant charging. The second – do not limit you in movement. There are combined options. Do not forget the format of the model – classic overhead or clip-on earrings, which are separately applied to each ear using a special attachment. You need to choose the headphones that will be most comfortable for you.

            Also remember about the frequency range, which directly affects the volume. Allocate low, medium and high frequencies. Low sound frequencies (Bass) lie in the range from 20 to 160 Hz. Medium (Midrange) – in the range from 160 to 1280 Hz. Highs (Treble) start at 1280 Hz.

            Frequently Asked Questions

            Which on-ear headphones should I choose, open or closed?

            Closed ones are ideal for home use, while open ones are ideal for outdoor use, as they are more compact and have less passive sound insulation.

            Is it harmful to use over-ear headphones?

            The question is more about the volume, not the form factor of the headphones. Listening to music at high volume for a long time is harmful under any conditions: in a car or through speakers. As for the wearing process itself, if a person is uncomfortable, he can take them off at any time. The headphones themselves do not carry any negative impact.
