Galaxy Buds 2 Pro vs Buds 2 - comfort, fit and size comparison
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Sharing the story of my new Galaxy Buds 2 Pro after two days. I specifically compared the comfort and fit between this new Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and my favourite Galaxy Buds 2 earbuds.
See the close up physical comparison on these two Galaxy Buds and their ear tips that come with it.
I feel we have paid hundreds of dollars for a set of earbuds so we should not spend the time and money to source for third party ear tips. The ear tips that comes out of the box should fit comfortably well and provide a good seal for their acclaimed 24-bit HiFi audio.

I have both as well ... To me the ANC is a lot better on the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. But everything else are close between them. If I didn't get them for free when upgrading to the Z Fold 4, wouldn't have gotten them. Great comparison video ... One of the best
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Hey, so if I am getting buds 2 for great price should I go for them in March 2023 ??
thanks for review! End up buying buds2 coming from plus, saves me a lot
@@eidrag Yes Buds 2 is still a very capable and well designed ear buds.
@@SkyPerspective because my hand dry, due to rounded body gripping it a bit hard to take out from case and to insert to ear, but no other complaint!
Ambient sound adjustment is in Accessibility > Customise sound to On. Then go back to home screen and turn on ambient sound. Below you will get the adjustment options.
Hey Satyajit, thanks for sharing with everyone. I will try that out later.
finally some one that understand how to do a proper review of buds, as you say, all the technical stuff on paper means nothing if the fit, comfort, and inear staying is not good. the rest is a fail. thanks for doing a great job on this review, i just sub'd and liked, please keep on doing more. so far you are better than those will millions of subscribers....a major thumbs up to you.
Wow, thanks for such an encouraging feedback. Your comment couldn't come at a better time. My list of videos I want to make are just growing exponentially while the time I can make videos are getting lesser. I will still try my best to find time and make videos for all of you and keep going. Thanks again.
3 months after making this video, I made another video discussing my final verdict on the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. Watch it here:
ruclips.net/video/Mul4qP9oLag/видео.html
Just bought the buds 2 pro after you answered every question I had about them. Great video, thanks for the effort!
Wonderful, so happy to hear this.
I'm going to get mine now!
I have the buds pro but can't justify paying the price for what seems like minor upgrades to the tech. Would love to pick up some buds2 pro for the better fit. Maybe they will go on sale at some point.
Yes, if you are using and happy with Buds Pro, I won't recommend upgrading to Buds 2 Pro. Buds 2 Pro is for people who wants to upgrade from Buds 2, like me.
If you're trading them in they're pretty good purchase you'll get 75$ off
got my buds 2 pro for 140€ thought I lost it and got a buds 2 for 70€, then found my buds 2 pro a month after 😂 i agree that the 2 pro have a better fit and they look much more premium!
Absolutely love them GB2P's man. Their sound effects, Sound quality, Ambience Mode, ANC, Battery, Conversation Mode, Neck Stretch Reminders... LE AMAZING!!!
I'm absolutely worrying about Samsung for the features they have removed from the Buds FE making them inconvenient for me, when they have gloss plastic that means they may have quality issues just like I had with Buds 2... but Wingtips are nice though!
Yes I agree. Wingtips are a great addition 👍
Buds 2 pro is the best earbud till date👑🙌🏻
perfect review, on point and clear! Thanks!
Thanks for your feedback. Very encouraging.
In buds 2 pro Please got to accessibility option and after go to custom sound then you can see control sound volume and more controlling function .
Hey Gaurav, thanks for sharing this information with everyone. I will give that a try later.
I feel the default eartips of buds2 was great with good seal. But with default earbuds2 pro, the default eartips is is not good seal. I had to change it to large, but it gets slightly uncomfortable and I think I m loosing some clarity. This is without ANC.
All 3 eartips shows good fit.
Please suggest.
If all the sizes are good fit, I would suggest go with the medium size. Sound leaking is quite common as the seal can never always be tight and perfect. As we move our head and jaws, the ear buds move too. So there is no point stuffing or ears too tight with large size just to get good seal. Comfort first. Have you tried foam tips like comply ear tips? Yes I know they are expensive
I am going to return buds 2 pro and going back to bud 2 bud 2 pro hurts year like buds pro due to bulge down side of the bud
Omg I'm not the only!!! They really hurt my ears.
i use my buds 2 as ear protection at work with using the ANC..... i have been using them for about a year it seems..... im thinking about upgrading to the buds 2 pro for the voice recognition and ANC...... have you noticed a better battery life on the buds 2 pro? as my buds 2 last 95% of my work night as long as i charge them on breaks.
would you say this would be a good upgrade for a factory worker that uses for hearing protection as well as listening to podcast and such while working?
or should i just save my money and stick with the buds 2( which have been great but also my first set of premium earbuds ( on a fold 3 phone if that matters)
When you mentioned for protection, do you mean constant noise or inconsistent loud noise like jack hammer?
If you use it to block inconsistent loud noise, then maybe the buds 2 pro might not do a good job when compared to buds 2. The reason is because there is an added air vent on the buds 2 pro which helps reduce the occlusion effect and helps the ear "breathe". I just made another video about it: ruclips.net/video/Mul4qP9oLag/видео.html
However, if you are after the ANC to cancel out constant background factory noise, then yes the buds 2 pro does a much better job when it comes to ANC.
In terms of battery life, I feel they are about the same.
If you are only listening to podcast and Buds 2 is already doing a good enough job for you, then perhaps I would suggest stick with Buds 2. It's worth paying for Buds 2 Pro only if you also enjoy good audio quality like watching movies, etc.
when i got buds 2's they were absolutely slow at ear detecting so 2 pros are way quicker
I just buy the buds 2 and i really enjoy.. Lov it
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing.
I have issues with my galaxy buds pros falling out of my ears too easily. I thought about getting the buds 2 pro but people are saying they shed?
Hi, awesome video! Im looking to get either one, buds 2 or 2 pro. Where I live, the buds2 costs $60, while the buds2 pro costs $92, which should i get?
When I upgraded from buds Plus to buds two i kept the tips from the budsPlus cuz they were simply more comfortable
Yes the Buds 2 tips are pretty uncomfortable.
I really liked the fins on the original buds and buds plus. I got the buds pro and they just don't fit right. I was hoping the buds2 pro will fit like my old buds. Looking forward to your final verdict.
Hey MakeMoreArrows, good to hear from you again. Yes I know what you mean. The original buds and their wings are one of a unique kind. I think what they have done with the buds 2 and buds 2 pro is to design it like an egg shape so that they fall into the cradle outside of our ear canal. This removes the need for the wings. I will try to cover this in the final verdict video. Thanks for your comment and support all these while.
The buds 2 fit even better than the original. How are the buds 2 pro going?
@@lobsterjohnson8642 Very well, and I love it. Sorry I am focusing on doing a video for my Z fold 4 ( ruclips.net/video/0X1iy-4Sb44/видео.html ) over the last week, so haven't done the in depth video for this Buds 2 Pro video yet. The noise cancellation is so good it takes a bit of getting used to seeing people buzzingly around you in almost total silence.
For me they are the best fitting buds I own. FYI, I have all the heavy hitters from the top name brands. I've paid over $400.00 for a couple sets. These are the truth. I quit looking for now. The journey is almost over. Just need more batt
Very detailed 👍
I like the matte finish tbh although it costs nearly twice the price of the buds 2
Thanks for sharing.
The mat finish comes off after 3 months of daily use! Worse ever
@joaquimdalmeida9645 This is interesting. I am curious, what's underneath the mat finish ? Any photo to share?
@joaquimdalmeida9645 I can vouch for this. I wore mine everyday for work and the matte coating is definitely coming off. Gonna retire them cause now they look awful. I'll trade them into Samsung when they release a new model.
@@mqproductions they do shed?
the review that I am seaching for. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I've read, that even though the buds 2 pro don't have direct ambient sound controls, you can still adjust it (the loudness) in Earbuds settings -> Accessibility settings -> Adjust ambient sound.
Can yoh confirm that?
And if so, how loud can it get? I have the Byds Plus and the Buds Pro..And have the Ambient sound on high or very high. I know it sounds distorted and metalic that way, but I really like the ability to hear everything, that happens around me.
Do the Bus 2 Pro (and the Buds 2) compare with that loudness?
I found the Accessibility settings, but that setting is for the hearing impaired. It's too difficult to be using that with the buds 2 pro.
The buds 2 pro ambient sound is good and natural, pretty much the same with the Buds 2 ambient sound setting set to medium. With the Buds 2 ambient sound settings set to high, it's actually not natural because sound and noise that are far away appears to be quite close. So Buds 2 Pro is good even though it does not let us control the ambient sound volume.
And yes its quite pitch-y and "metallic" still on the buds 2 pro. Water noise sounds weird.
@@SkyPerspective
On the Buds 2 Pro, when I activated the "amplify ambient sound" setting in the accessibility section, I started hearing some distortion (I can't even describe the sound). Which is weird, because on the Buds Pro and Buds 2 I don't hear that.
So I have to use them without the amplification. And it sounds a little quiet for me.
Like I said, I wouldn't mind some white noise and metalic-ness in the sound. But this distorted sound (whatever it is) was too annoying.
Hey, great video!
can you say more about the occlusion effect on the buds2 pro compared the buds2? Is it any better now in terms of ear thump when walking/running?
Also, how is the wind noise on the pro? I like to cycle off road regularely and hate how with most buds I can't hear anything but wind noise. Is there any difference compared to the buds2?
Hi there, thanks for your suggestions and questions, now I know what my audience would like to know. Occlusion and thumping is something I haven't tested enough, hence didn't want to say anything about it until I give it a good use for a couple of weeks. So far, all I can say is the thumping is not completely gone. I was hoping the air vent will remove the occlusion effect, but I think it's only reducing it.
As for the wind noise, I was wearing it during my afternoon walk, it was windy and depending on the wind direction blowing at them, the wind noise is sometimes there and not there. With my buds 2, there is no wind noise because there is no air vent.

Hey, thanks for the insights! Looking forward to the full review 👍
Hey Sky. Thank you for the magnificent info. Do you need an editor for your content? I can do it in high quality with a low price, both thumbnails, and videos
Hi there, thank you so much for your offer. I do need a lot of help as my channel grow, however I don't think I can afford to pay for any service right now, so I am happy chunking along with my limited time and effort. Thanks for reaching out. Appreciate it.
Hey can you please tell what does the wind shield do on Samsung buds 2 pro If Samsung buds 2 don't have these does it effect the sound quality or comfort .pls reply
The air vent basically allows air to pass through so it reduces the vacuum effect which is known as the occlusion effect (google it). For example, we hear thumping noise in our ears when we walk with the buds 2 in our ears. The thumping noise is greatly reduced in Galaxy Buds 2 Pro even though it's still there. I have made a video about it: ruclips.net/video/Mul4qP9oLag/видео.html
No it doesn't affect the sound quality, but maybe yes for comfort. Our ears usually need to "breathe" and ear buds with air vent is always better than those without. Hope this helps.
Thanks for this
My pleasure!
Wow, you use music speed changer too? I use my Buds2 and Buds2 Pro with this app for music listening, and I change the pitch, tempo and other attributes of the songs to never get bored of them! I upgraded from the regular buds2 because the mesh would get clogged with earwax way too easily, and the microphone stopped working so ambient mode and ANC don't work at all :(
Yap....I mainly use music speed changer for my video production, so I can time my video recording exactly inline with my voice over. Great time saver. Yes I have heard about earwax clogging the speakers but never to the extend it prevents the mic from working. I guess that is possible given how all that mic hole is.
@@SkyPerspective Yeah I suspect the microphone died from water damage. I accidentally dropped my buds in a glass of water and quickly dried them. The microphones were fully functional weeks after the incident but I can't find any other reason why the microphones died.
I love my buds2 pro, in comparison, they fit a little bit looser than the regular buds2 but once you wear them you forget about them, they are really that comfy. And the ear tips are designed in a way that adds a little distance between the mesh and my ears so they never get in contact with earwax.
Depending on the ear tip size, the buds2 either fit too tight, causing strain around the ear channel, so they react with mild but rapid production of liquid earwax that easily gets into the mesh and clogs it after just a few minutes of usage. Or they don't make a proper seal with the smallest ear tip size, the passive soundstage becomes terrible and the buds sit too loose. I would clean them every single time I used them and it would still just smear the wax over the holes in the mesh which impairs the volume. It's gross, perhaps just that my ears aren't very compatible with this design but I never had any other complaints about the buds2
I got this solution: If your unit works, why not to take them off of your ears and find a video that would play a special sound that will eject water off?@@7katter
would the buds 2 eartip be able to fit on the buds 2 pro? im trying to get azla sedna eartips but they don't have for galaxy buds 2 pro yet
Hi there, yes I just tested them for you and I can confirm they fit and are interchangable, but I would not recommend that. The reason is because of the difference in the length of the stem as I mentioned in 2:06 between the Bud 2 and Buds 2 Pro. The Buds 2 Pro need the ear tips to be longer to compensate for it's short stem.
@Sky Perspective thank you, I heard they're gonna be releasing the new azla sedna eartips in late September soon so I should just wait.
Good Comparison .. Hope u compare these to the buds pro in terms of sound quality
Already got rid of my Buds Pro, sorry. From memory, the buds 2 pro audio quality is better than the buds pro because of it's 24 bit audio. Unless you have big ears and can get really good discount for Buds Pro, I won't recommend Buds Pro. With Buds 2 Pro, it has bluetooth 5.3 means better connectivity. I just realised today, it also works with Microsoft Windows swift pair. The ANC is also better on the Buds 2 Pro.
I have buds 2 is it worth it to uprgade in buds 2 pro ?
Hey even i have buds 2 and planning to buy buds 2 pro, did you buy?
Hi, Which is rich in bass
Both. Buds 2 pro has better bass.
I even have OPPO ENCO X2
Which is a flagship Audiophile TWS and it costed me more, so I though why to invest again and bought Buds 2. Anyways, in probably next month or so Buds 3 and Buds 3 pro might get launched.
Which ones of these do you think would be better for small ears? I tend to get sore on the bony/cartilage part of my ear where the bulk of the earbuds sit.
If you are not after premium sound quality, consider going for Galaxy Buds live, and then Galaxy Buds 2. There are other smaller bluetooth ear buds such as the brand Soundpeats. My wife has small ears, and she is using soundpeats true air 2.
Use large ear tip with buds 2 pro will not get pain in ears as well as will get best sound and ANC
Definitely the regular buds2 are more comfortable
@SkyPerspective what are your best recommendations for small headphones currently, ig with a budget of around 150?
If you want more bass in buds 2 pro then set equaliser in Daynimic mode.
Little bit Low bass Compare to buds2 because buds 2 pro is ipx7 water proof feature .
Which one is best in ANC?
Buds 2 Pro. And it's a very clear winner.
@@SkyPerspective 👍
@@SkyPerspective how is buds 2 anc compared to other earbuds?
Buds 2 anc is good, but not as good as Buds 2 pro. Buds 2 pro anc is one of the best on the market right now.
@@SkyPerspective thanks, i just lost my buds+ and will be getting the regular one since the pro is out of my budget
I am mostly concerned about the pressure of the plastic on the ear canal.
I know what you mean. Try Comply Foam ear tips.
@@SkyPerspective No, I am talking about the shape of the ear buds them selves. I had issues with the original airpods and galaxy buds pro 1. They are too tight for my left ear causing pain. Been using beats flex to avoid issues, but I heard the buds 2 pro are super comfy?
@AA yes, buds pro version 1 causes pain for almost everyone. See my buds pro video and its comment. Most comments agree it's too big and painful. Yes, buds 2 pro have improved silicone ear tips, softer than buds pro and buds 2.
Which one is better 2 or 2 pro ?
2 pro
@@SkyPerspective but recently I buy buds 2 😑

Are you going to do a follow up or final analysis?
Hi MakeMoreArrows, good to hear from you again. Apologies its going to take a while. I have lots of video backlog and currently making a follow up analysis of my Microsoft keyboard. Is there specific questions you like to know about the Buds 2 pro? I can try to answer your specific questions here directly.
Just a quick summary. This Buds 2 pro has now replaced my Bud 2 as my daily driver. It's the best earbuds I have ever used. Amazing noise cancellation and ambient sound pipe through.
When I really push them by turning up the native android equaliser and Galaxy wear sound profile to dynamic and turn on Dolby Atmos, the hardware of these Buds can still take it without any distortion. The only thing is the sound signature becomes quite tinny and unnatural at that point. Not a negative con because usually people won't push the earbuds to that sorts of extremes even though it can handle it. In terms of comfort and fit, yes Samsung has nailed it. I used it to watch a 2.5 hours video and after that I don't have any fatigue or pain or urge to remove them straight away. These are some findings which I will be discussing in the upcoming video.
Oh and in terms of the occlusion effect, it's still there like the Buds 2, but it's reduced and is much easier to get used to especially when ambient sound is on. The thing I can't get used to is how good the ANC is. The first time when I was at the food court, I turn on the ANC everything went quiet to the extend my brain 🧠 can't adjust because visually I see people buzzing around me, but my ears says I am in a quiet environment. If only I can show this on the actual video I am making. 😄 Anyway, hope this gives you a bit of an idea.
@@SkyPerspective hi.
Would you choose buds 2 for 50$ or buds 2 pro for 100$?
@@shivankbansal2261 very good way of asking this question. If Buds 2 fit your ears well, I would choose Buds 2. I don't think the Buds 2 Pro is worth twice as much.
WHICH ONE WILL BE BEST WITH S23ULTRA
NEED YOUR SUGGESTION.
Go for the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. I am using the buds 2 pro with my Galaxy Z Fold 4
@@SkyPerspective if i plan to keep em for a long time do you recommend the buds 2 pro over the buds 2 even tho they cost nearly twice as much?
I'm Buds plus user.
Which one should I upgrade?
Which one is comfortable and tight like what I'm using?
I like both but I'm not sure with pro series cause I see many people talking about ear pain.
If you are a buds plus user, my guess is both the Buds 2 and Buds 2 Pro will fit you well, but not the Buds Pro. I don't think Buds 2 Pro and Buds Pro belongs to the same series. Buds 2 Pro is close to Buds 2 if anything. I know.... it's confusing. Go with Buds 2 pro if you are after premium audio and Buds 2 for above average audio.
@@SkyPerspective Thanks for your answer. 😊 I will decide it again.
In terms of size, they are almost same i guess, right?
Yes they are about the same size, but in terms of fit, the Buds 2 pro has a protruding bulge that might not fit certain ears. Hope this helps.
Thanks for an answer. So, buds 2 looks slightly smaller in your ears than buds2 pro?
Buds 2 is just ever so slightly smaller than buds 2 pro, especially without the bulge. Now, in terms of how they look in our ears, they both look about the same size in our ears. Something to note is that Buds 2 has a glossy finish exterior surface while the Buds 2 pro has a matte finish. So buds 2 is more "shiny". What's your concern about the looks?
