    Any latest user updates with their experience with this product? Please give us your insights.. much appreciated. Thank you.

      MadokaMagica, 23 Aug 2023Have you gotten new experiences with it yet? I'm plann... moreNo, it cannot block out many sounds actually. It only "neutralizes" sounds on low frequencies and in my experience only if no sound is playing, but if you stop the music, then you hear everything from the outside world. And tbh, on public transport or in busy street I hear more from the outside world even when listening to music than I hear with Buds+ which have no ANC but offer a better seal.

        Can you give your opinion based on your experiences, please? Thanks you so much!

          If you bass head, please add PowerAmp apps in to your mobile phone, and booom, this buds 2 pro will has 'explode' sound

            I just bought this a couple of hours ago at Samsung Experience Store near my house.
            Initially I tried the demo unit and was totally put off by the fact that it had to go above 90% volume to hear anything especially with the very noisy mall ambient. this wasn't the case with my cheap Xiaomi Mi True Wireless Earbuds Basic 2 (IDR 149.000) that I was listening to while on the way to the store (LOL, 149.000 vs 2.799.000). I checked the battery level and it was on 99% capacity so that wasn't the problem, and tweaking on every possible settings in Wearable app didn't improve anything. My player is Poweramp Pro and the settings were never changed between both buds.

            So, why did I proceed to buy it?
            Well, apparently the sales had this "Try and Buy program" (that they said applied to select stores) and if I bought the buds and had trouble during it's initial 30 days normal usage, my money would be returned in full. This trouble could be because of the fitting not compatible (dropping off ear, uncomfortable etc), connection problems or a myriad of common TWS problems.

            Having bought it, I immediately tested it inside the mall (the Xiaomi is practically useless here as it had bad connection problems when in crowded areas, assuming it had to do with BT signals and interferences). Buds 2 Pro had no problems of dropped connections at all!
            And Surprisingly after 30 minutes of continuous use, the Volume increased and was comparable to the MI TWS (50% volume was high enough).
            The charging of the buds and case (at start of charge, case was 2% and buds at 73%) is taking nearly 2 hours (still charging while I write this comment).

            The good thing is that the fit is great!
            Unlike previous releases that kept me off of Galaxy Buds. Despite using the L size rubber tips and still feeling a leak in sound, the buds fit snug in my ears and headshakes and even wearing a helmet did not budge it.

            ANC is good but the Ambient Mode doesn't feel comfortable at all to be left ON. The 360 degree feature is basically just gimmick since listening to music has no meaningful impact on the listening experience. Don't know about watching film though as I haven't got to that point (only 4 hours since purchase)

            I am liking what there is so far. If all is well, I am prompted to return to the Store and give a video testimonial regarding my experience with the buds. Also, I will receive a free AC Adaptor (worth IDR 299.000) as a bonus.

            I will make another comment upon reaching the said 30 days test period and give a conclusion.

                Clearly a lot of people say that Samsung and Sony TWS sound better than AirPods, however I do agree that the ANC of the new Airpods is in a league of its own.

                        A Strange comment here but the article is mentioning that the buds 2 pro is charged using USB-C from 0-100% in 75 minutes or so, however I find that it takes 2 full complete hours to charge from 0-100% which is way far from what is mentioned, do anyone have similar experience?

                          Beware, these buds have the same ear infection problems as the previous buds pro

                              I purchased this before air pods pro 2 came out, compared it with the previous pro, aside from comfort, the sound is inferior, I do not know what they're doing, ANC is barely an improvement. comparing to the air pods pro 2, the air pod's ANC is another league, sound tune is also better, comfort is about the same as previous. Galaxy buds 2 pro seem over priced, but it's going to drop to the "correct" price soon enough.

                                I honestly believe that they don't have a mic in them. I had to get rid of my pair. It's ridiculous they can't do something as simple as make an option where it can use the mic on the ear Bud or on the phone. Nothing more frustrating playing games and hearing somebody rubbing a rubber raft or something like that it's annoying as h***

                                  Overrated and over priced especially when you can get the excellent Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+ for a fraction of the price which has superb bass and overall sound quality. No ANC but really who cares when they sound so good?

                                    Perversely I posted using third-part EQ app.. on Samsung it's "useless", because Samsung make excellent setup, homework for others OEMs, in settings > sound and vibration > sound quality and effects .. bass, mid, high enjoy your favorite setup 🎛️🎧

                                        Low Joe, 26 Sep 2022Mine are forever falling out. Are the pb2 worth the upgrade... moreI mean we all have different ears but in my case the fit is rock solid, I run with them and they still on my ears. You gotta test it, also you can buy those earbuds caps accessory that goes over the ear, I had one when I used Airpods Pro 1st gen, they get the job done.
