![]() ![]() When the filter rolls off at the beginning of " Bringo!" By Bad Snacks, the earbuds get a chance to show off their bass response, adding a weighty thump to the kick drum and bass line. Here, the impact of the bass drum is intact, as is the panning of the various pieces of added percussion. This is a roomy sounding recording that often sounds squashed and small on earbuds. Once I adjusted the earbuds in my ears with a slight twist, the sound came alive.īrant Bjork's instrumental " Mexico City Blues" shows the impressive soundstage of the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. It turned out that I hadn't quite got the proper fit. When I began testing the Buds 2 Pro, I was surprised at the boxy, midrange-heavy sound. This turned out to be a great idea, as the sound is the biggest strength of the Buds 2 Pro, once you get the right fit at least. Take a peek inside the case, and you'll notice a logo that reads "Sound by AKG," meaning Samsung took the reins on the smart features and let the well-known audio company handle the sound. There's also a novel "neck stretch reminder" feature that will let you know if you've been looking downward for too long. The fit test and built-in equalizer are here, as is Voice Detect, a feature very similar to the Speak to Chat feature in the Sony WH-1000XM5 that automatically lowers volume and enables ambient sound mode when you start speaking. Most of the key features are available for everyone (well, except iPhone owners). While this app is available for all compatible Android devices, Samsung devices get access to some other features that you won't find on other phones or tablets. To customize the controls, you'll need Samsung's Galaxy Wearable app, only available for Android. Out of the box, you can tap to pause or resume playback, or press and hold to swap between noise cancellation and ambient sound modes. You can turn these off entirely, or you can customize them. The first time you need to adjust the Buds 2 Pro in your ear, you'll likely notice how sensitive the touch controls are on the outside of the buds.
