"I heard there are 1 or 2 features that are locked to Galaxy phones on the Samsung buds. ... I really dislike the concept of something that I pay for having features gatekept from me."

77jasj 1.0I still use them, they are fantastic, they sound very good, and very comfortable. In red they are great! And I have the same case!
alexsasacv 1.0Best Buds ever, nothing later compares, I tried all of them, and none fits so good as Buds+, impossible to fall out of the ear, unlike all "pro" including Apple's (my wife has an iPhone and specifically asked me to NOT buy Airpods for her birthday, she loves Buds+ :) Bought new Buds Core (as a cheap backup) and while they are very similar, still can't match Buds+.
Alternative-Art4335 1.0Personally I think the 3pro sound better & I like them more, but I am still getting used to to the shape. They can be a little uncomfortable at times but not so bad I can't handle it. I still keep my buds 2 pro, & buds+ for back ups.
arjman 1.0Previously Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus (mega battery life) but now I just use my AirPods Pro 2.
arped 1.0Still use my galaxy buds plus I've had for a number of years and its far and away my favourite earbuds I've ever had. Battery life is elite and it charges super quickly. I will use these until they die, then I'll try to find another pair after that. I literally cannot say enough good things about them. https://preview.redd.it/48fg6paydilf1.png?width=1440&format=png&auto=webp&s=d1ac6d4980312241dfb1da23dcd5d4ca68c22d80
bacardicereal 1.0I've been using Galaxy Buds + for many years and they have killer battery life features that make them easy to use and switch between devices easily, unlike some ear buds.
Beey222 1.0Galaxy buds fe have a wing that keep mine in my ears super well and are the most comfortable. I bought these cuz i used to have just buds+ and those were the dame design and i LOVED them but cant get them anymore. These have like, never, fallen out of my ears. I used to work walking around a lot and weird movements printing shirts, now i do custodial work. I dont think they're worth the 100$ price though, got mine for like 70$. You a runner tho so id consider something with the arching wing around your ear, i cant do those cuz i wear glasses and it bothers me. If you relate to that then i totally reccomend the buds FE or something similar with the wing inside the ear.
Breaker_19 1.0In my opinion the galaxy buds Plus we're the best bud Samsung ever made. They had tremendous battery life and the call quality in a noisy truck was great. Galaxy buds FE were terrible. They had poor microphones in them. Nobody could hear you in a phone call. Galaxy buds core are a recreation of the Galaxy buds Plus. They have tremendous battery life and they have active noise cancellation. I can put them in at 6:00 a.m. and they last me until 5:00 p.m. everyday. And the price is awesome less than $50. I recommend these to anybody looking for a quality set of earbuds. Especially if you drive a truck.
Bryant1425 1.0I still have mine! The red ones too!
ChocolateMilkCows 1.0I have an old pair of Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus (no ANC) I’ve been using a few years and been happy. I tried some AirPods Pro Gen 2 a while ago (because I wanted ANC and from what I heard they had good ANC) and did not like them. I tried all the sizes of silicone tips on the AirPods and none of them came close to the seal I got with my Galaxy Buds (despite Apple telling me when they had a good seal). The result of this was that the Buds had better noise cancelling, at least for day-to-day stuff. Like, I could hear my clock ticking through the AirPods. All this to say: is this a problem anyone else had? And do the Gen 3s fix it?
