samsung just released another pair of earbuds these are the galaxy butts too
and today we will compare them not only to the airpods pro but also the amazing
beats studio buds and see which one of these is worth the money not only we're
gonna compare the design and comfort we're gonna take a look at the sound
quality active noise cancellation the microphones and much more i've owned
every pair of samsung earbuds and they do a great job but it looks like this
time they are really getting serious we have
active noise cancellation at 150 bucks let's go ahead and pull out this little
case all right that looks nice and clean same size as they've been using look at
that two tone that looks really nice i love the color options and in general
the case is nice and small now it is thicker than the airpods max case and a
little bit taller but definitely a lot smaller than the beats as far as battery
life the air pods have the least for the bud themselves four and a half hours
with active noise cancellation compared to five on both of these and inside the
case it flips they have the most 24 hours plus compared to 20 hours of the
beats 2 and only 15 with the beats studio buds and with that the beats are
also the only ones that don't have wireless charging built into the case in
addition to usb type-c or lightning and with that the design of the earbuds are
also very different we have stems with airpods pro this bulbous design with the
buds too and this very unique minimalist design with the beats studio buds that i
really like let's go ahead and pop these in we'll talk about comfort these are
definitely really round and that's essentially this is actually
very soft i think they've changed it putting them into my ear all right i
mean i can instantly tell the round design is literally hugging my
ear all around the outside i definitely feel them a lot more than when i put in
my earpods pro these don't sit as tight in there and of course we have that
little valve that releases the pressure uh it doesn't make it feel like your
ears are plugged so as far as comfort these are excellent probably the best
and these uh beets are also super nice i'm not feeling them as much i have a
lot of experience with these around my ears and they are also the lightest so
these are second place the controls are also different across the board the
studio buds you actually have to press a physical button which i do not love
because it kind of pushes them into your ear more
the buds too they are a touch surface so you can literally just tap on there
and it picks it up and actually does a pretty good job samsung has gotten
really good at this and then of course with the airpods pro you have the stem
and this is my favorite option you're not forcing anything you have a little
click when you're actually pressing down they work great and now let's get into a
very important part and that is active noise cancellation i want to know how
good are the buds too at 150 bucks of course the airpods pro let's toggle it
into that they do a great job
wow let me go ahead and go to the buds the beats studio buds these are also
very good i think for this room it actually is even better just because it
seals so much more in bam
excellent i feel like i hear a little bit more of the higher noise through the
air vent but a little bit less of the lower kind of deeper rumble and it
definitely plugs up my voice more so and the moment of truth let's pull open
these buds right here see how good can samsung do for 150
bucks let's toggle it all right
interesting but go ahead and say something hey man can you hear me i hear
you so i hear more it's almost like a mix of both these let
me go back and forth a couple times before i give you guys my verdict all
right guys so i went back and forth through these a couple times before i
gave you guys my verdict and pretty much these are in third place you hear more
of the high frequency sounds more of the low frequency sounds and i guess that
kind of makes sense because samsung also has their higher end galaxy buds pro so
they're probably tuning these down now if you have not had active noise
cancellation if you have older galaxy buds these are definitely gonna do a
good job you will be happy with them but if you want the best active noise
cancellation either one of these two options are better and now what about
transparency mode we know that the airpod pros are the best in the market
let me switch here you sound you pretty much hear what you normally would hear
without him would you go ahead and say something hey man you sound fantastic
you sound excellent these are good let's try out the
beats studio buds here all right go ahead and say something how are those
man how do those sound you actually sound not too bad i sound
pretty dang terrible i know there's been a firmware update but as far as the room
sound it sounds unnatural kind of filtered not
super digital my voice sounds digital but it feels like it's halfway plugged
the microphones on these well you guys will hear them in just a little bit and
let's go ahead and try out these guys right here all right
huh that is weird my voice is amplified more so i'm going
to go through the settings that vent is way too low wait say that again
did samsung kill it you said uh-huh yes you sound like an echo machine dude do
it yes
that's weird hey do that whistling again you just
whistle try that again dude it's all staticky do it again okay
it's bad now that really has me thinking how are the microphones going to be on
these things we will see in a sec but first i want to do a sound quality
comparison listen to three songs you guys can listen with us and see my
reaction my first reaction to the sound quality of these
[Music] okay okay okay guys
interesting these are good these are honestly plentifully surprised
it's basically like if you took the airpods pro
and the beats and you combine them you have the nice base from the beats not as
strong but close and the nice high frequencies those detailed sharps from
the airpods pro and combined them and gave something that's pretty much right
in the middle that sounded fantastic i really enjoyed
it the volume was good in the past it's a little bit too quiet with the the
samsung buds nice okay that was good it sounded great on all three the bass on
here if you love bass
you're not gonna be disappointed but let's go ahead and move over to the next
track the classical modern instrumental [Music]
okay okay wow okay i'm even more impressed
the highs here were nice the beats for this song there's just not enough high
end there i wish we could just eq them you know if they had an app that you can
uh change that these that wouldn't change at all those sounded fantastic we
had the bass that the beats the studio buzz do a little bit less but the
perfect amount those were a little too bass heavy the highs were nice and crisp
like the high hat maybe a little bit too crisp but when we had all that at the
end blending together there was no distortion i was waiting for that no
distortion that little sweep sounded super clean
these sound fantastic samsung you guys are doing a great job and now
for the last song the most difficult one tons of instruments tons of sounds we
got this rock track let's take a listen [Music]
[Applause] i see it coming
all right that was very interesting gosh i was just a little disappointed
after that song and the first two songs these guys did fantastic before rock
i don't know the base was there it was a lot more rich than the airpods the
airpods do not have enough bass for rock tracks if you want to hear the bass
guitar and the drums really kicking you the vocals were very audible maybe a
little bit too much and instruments just sounded like they're blending together
from the keyboard to the guitar to the vocals you didn't have as much
separation now the galaxy buds killed in this test that base is there i'd like a
little bit more highs but you do have good separation and it just sounds great
for rock music so overall if you want if you listen to rock i
would go for these amazing i've used these so much these they're okay
not great a little bit underwhelming for rock music and the airpod pros no
distortion they sound good they just need some more bass so other than rock
the other songs we listen to having more classical where you don't have as much
instruments electronic a wide variety of songs they
do good but if you have something that's very difficult with a lot of different
kind of sounds blended together that's when they start to fall apart and now
for the last test a very important one microphone quality we know that the
airpods pro sound fantastic the beats studio buds sound like garbage but where
are the galaxy buds 2 going to fit into that space let's go ahead and take a
listen this is a microphone quality test using apple's airpods pro in a room that
has an average amount of noise and this is the microphone quality of apples
beats studio buds in a room that has an average amount of noise and this is the
microphone quality of samsung's new galaxy buds 2 in a room that has an
average amount of noise all right guys let me know your thoughts down in the
comment section below we just transferred the audio files and took a
listen for ourselves and wow there could not be a greater difference
between the buds 2 and the beats studio buds these studio buds sound terrible
there are no high end at all mostly bass a lot of rumble and noise whereas the
samsung buds 2 they denoise all of the low end there's
a very little low end sound a lot of highs but the highs are very crisp very
easy to understand you will not have any issues with people hearing you when
you're talking to them when you're using these buds too and that makes sense why
the transparency mode or the ambient mode why the highs were just they're
standing out so much is because of the microphones but it is worth it for call
quality these are going to be great whereas where with the beats studio buds
after about five times the people telling me they couldn't hear me at all
i just decided every time i'm getting a call i'm pulling these out and switching
to my phone and that is annoying of course airpod pros no issues these
things kill it they have good bass and good highs so if you're gonna do web
conferencing face timing whatever you want to sound good recording audio these
things absolutely destroy so there you guys have it what is the overall verdict
well the airpods they're good overall they do have some downfalls but they are
more expensive 100 more msrp at least 50 bucks more if you're looking on the
market for the best prices we have linked those linked down below but
they're almost two years old pretty much two years old the speakers the sound
quality could be better between these two if you're listening to bass or rock
and the thing you care about most is just sound quality these are good
comfort are also good but no wireless charging worse battery life microphones
suck there's a lot of limitations whereas these new samsung butts too they
are such a well-rounded uh set of earbuds sound quality is nice and
balanced more balanced than the beats and i don't know you can't really go
wrong you have the wireless charging they they do a good job the microphones
are great so i will actually be using these and testing them out just like i
usually do we'll see what happens as far as long-term comfort in the full review
but other than that overall i am impressed with samsung they're putting
these out pretty much every like six months compared to years and years for
apple but they are getting it right so thank you guys for watching click that
