Samsung braved uncharted territory with the Galaxy Buds Live, at a time when everyone is following Apple's lead.

Positives | Bluetooth 5.0; AAC and Samsung scalable codec Wireless and fast charging (USB-C) Unique design, stable fit App available on iOS and Android Good microphone quality |
| Negatives | Just okay noise cancelling Only IPX2 water-resistance Mediocre sound quality |

Bottom Line | These earbuds boast noise-cancelling without the ability to seal to the ear. Yet, the noise cancelling actually works to some degree. Listeners who want something that makes a statement may want to wear these buds: they fit better than the AirPods, and include wireless charging to boot. Most of us, though, are better off saving money and getting the Galaxy Buds Plus instead. |
