Samsung’s new Galaxy Buds are its best true wireless earphones to date: they’re compact, comfortable, and offer great battery life. With a price of $129.99 and built-in wireless charging, they’re cheaper than Apple’s AirPods and seem better value, too. But a few too many engineering foibles prevent them from contending for the title of being the best.

The Galaxy Buds are solidly good wireless earbuds with comfortable design and reasonable sound quality for an affordable price.
Samsung has added some nice features here like Ambient Sound, but there are also cost cutting measures and iPhone owners will want to avoid considering these as an AirPods alternative.

Tras probarlos, estamos convencidos de que los Galaxy Buds son una mejora importante con respecto a los IconX anteriores, especialmente en cuanto a precio y autonomía.
En el mercado existen muchas otras opciones de auriculares inalámbricos con una intensa competencia, por lo que no estamos seguros de que sean los mejores en calidad, pero sí tienen algo diferencial, que es su carga inalámbrica. La capacidad de la batería interna de 252 mAh cada una, dan para otorgar una autonomía cercana a las 5 horas de conversación o un día entero en modo standby.

Great for iOS users who don't mind about elite-level sound too much, the AirPods are now a staple of the in-ear genre.
