Our quick take
Samsung Galaxy Buds Live - 4.0 / 5
Designed to be different
- Dimensions: 27.3 x 16.5 x 14.9mm Weight (per ‘bud): 5.6g Bean-style design Compact case
Connection and Galaxy Wearable app
- Galaxy Wearable or Galaxy Buds app
Sound quality and noise cancelling
- Active noise cancellation Equaliser presets Experimental ambient sound mode
Battery performance
- Approx 6 hours battery life 28 hours total from case 22 hours with ANC Wireless charging
To recap
A unique design that’s comfortable to wear, sounds great, offering customisation through the accompanying app. But without a proper seal, Samsung can’t deliver the active noise cancellation (ANC) as effectively as some rivals.
