Q: QuestionDo these ear buds work with any phone or only samsung?(9 answers)
A: AnswerWorks with any Bluetooth device.Answered by Straightline
Q: QuestionWill this work with all Samsung Android phones?(9 answers)
A: AnswerYes they do.Answered by Michi
- A: AnswerNo, but they have seamless device switching. This simply means you can switch devices without having to un-pair from your previously connected device. Each device would need to be paired with your Buds 2 first but once they are paired you can simply go to your new device's bluetooth setting and connect to the Buds 2. It will automatically disconnect from you previous device and connect to your new device quickly and seamlessly.

Great deal
Worked fine out of the box and honestly aside from the dinged up packaging, would never have guessed this is refurbished. Came with two sizes of ear inserts that appeared clean and basically unused. As far as features go, connected easily to my Samsung Galaxy phone and easy to control through the app. Generally impressed with both the active noise cancellation and sound quality in general. Definitely worth the savings and should outperform pretty much everything in its (refurbished) price class.

Everything I wanted and expected.
I ordered these with good hesitation since most of the reviews say these come without eartips or with issues but im pleased that mine came with eartips although only the small/Large ones which is fine for me and the actual buds and case themselves came absolutely spotless as you could convince me they were just an openbox or even new and so far no issues what so ever so safe to say im very satisfied for only paying around 60$ i got near top of the line earbuds and the fact in came in the original box was a very nice detail especially for people who collect those types of things as myself.

Excellent Buds
I've had these buds for a few weeks now and I'm impressed. I bought them refurbished and was pleasantly surprised they looked and felt brand new. Okay let's get to it. Major Positive: They're comfortable! Compared to my Galaxy Buds+, they're still comfortable and painless 2 hours in to listening. I fall asleep with these almost nightly and when I wake up they're still in and still don't hurt me. Minor Negative: I get roughly 3 hours of listening time (without ambient noise or noise-cancelling active) before it's time to stow them back in their case. Major Positive: They charge quickly. I d Use maybe 3-5 hours a day max, and the case charges them about 3 times before I have to recharge it. Not major compared to other buds but I'm content. Minor Negative: The sleek design makes them a little bit easier (easier than Galaxy Buds+) to fumble them when pulling them out of my ears in a hurry. Side Note: I was initally peeved that I couldn't use ambient noise with only one Bud in; turns out I just needed to fix a setting in the Galaxy Wearable app. Earbud settings > Accessibility > Noise controls with one earbud.
