Brilliant
Having returned the Earfun headphones due to comfort and sound quality issues (very poor at both) I went for the Galaxy Live buds. Mainly for comfort (don’t have to stuff the rubber thing inside your head) but also gambled on sound quality.There are differences in other reviews as to sound quality but so far I have to say that the sound is truly brilliant. Superb bass and having listened solidly for 3 hours I would say they handle all range and type of music with ease.The comfort is fine, you do find that you have to shift them around to achieve a good balance of sound quality and comfort but once you have the right spot these will not disappoint.Cost was good and did worry a little as they weren’t sold by Amazon directly but they came in Amazon packaging.Did check for authenticity but need not worry, they’re not UK spec but are the real deal.I would certainly recommend these.

Hard to put in - noise cancelling not great.
Not right for me.The fit is weird and found it hard to get the 'sweet spot' every time I put them in.The noise cancelling is also pretty sub par.Also lots of sound bleed even on lower volumes so not suitable for quiet environments.

Rubbish bluetooth connection, what noise cancelling?
The bluetooth connection was awful, from my pocket to my ears it struggled to maintain signal. Noise cancelling does nothing at all, it probably doesn't help that these don't go anywhere near your ear canal so it's never going to create a seal to stop noise entering.I returned these and bought the samsung buds + which are much better as they actually go into your ears which even though they don't have npise cancelling, cancels more noise than these live ones.

Very good
OK I think the galaxy buds live are very good I had the galaxy buds and I think these are more comfortable the sound is much better the battery live is great I've had 8 to 10 hours use before the one of the earphones give up, there are better sounding wireless earphones out there, but you'll have to pay a lot more. I got mine for £94 when they where £140 look on amazon wherehouse! I still think there worth it 5 months on, no drop in battery life or sound quality can't fault them

Not bad, not great, buds+ better
Not as good as the ear buds or ear buds +. No noise amplifying, only noise cancelling. They just don't fit as well as the original ear buds..... But that being said, they work well enough. I've had them for 3 weeks and use them eveyday. I'm satisfied but not extatic.

Well worth the money!
Definitely would recommend! I ultimately chose these over the Apple Airpods due to better compatibility with my Galaxy S10+ (and the cheaper price) and have been impressed!Battery life is solid. First day I had them, I used them for Spotify pretty much all day after a full charge.Sound quality is really impressive. I wasn't sure whether the bass would be noticeable due to the earphones not being placed inside the ear, but they proved my doubts wrong, its probably the most noticeable thing! The noise cancelling feature isn't great, however, but as I'm not really travelling around on public transport or in busy places a lot, this feature isn't too important.The fit was unusual to begin with, only because of the different design, but I came to realise that they were extremely comfy, and they don't feel intrusive to the ears like your standard earphone would after a long period of use. Definitely a feature in would recommend taking into account if you struggle with the usual fit of earphones.No issues with calls, the microphones on the earphones pick up my voice very well, and I've had no complaints of not being heard on the other side of the line.The box did come with everything as it should, however, the quick start guide was in Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Polish, Bulgarian and Romanian, but this can be found in English with a quick Google search ("SM-R180 Setup Guide" or something along those lines). I wouldn't be put off by this if it means saving some money on buying it with an English Setup guide.All in all, very happy with the product!

Comfortable fit and well balanced sound.
So good a fit I forget I'm wearing them. Also Good, well balanced sound. I've gone thru' loads of headphones, ear buds etc and they were all uncomfortable after a while but these restrictions snugly in your ears rather than pushed in. Highly recommend them

Great buds
The sound quality is good and can be adjusted through the Galaxy Budd app. I find them to be more comfortable that I imagined although I do find the touch co trolls to be quite hit and miss.As for value for money, I got what I expected so can’t complain. They even connect to my TV
