Best True Wireless Earbuds of 2022
The Samsung Galaxy Buds’ superb audio quality isn’t just the best on this list; it ranks among the best of any headphone in our ratings. Samsung has put out several updated models, such as the Buds+ and the Galaxy Buds 2, but in our tests, the original Buds still come out on top.
The Galaxy Buds come in an unobtrusive charging case that rivals the portability of AirPods, and like Apple’s offering, the case can be charged wirelessly if you own a compatible charging pad. Samsung says earbuds have a 6-hour battery life, but the case only holds enough charge to power the earbuds a little over one time between its own charges. That’s a bit low compared to other models.
These earbuds have integrated touch controls for calls, volume, and playback, and according to Samsung, they’re water-resistant. Unlike many true wireless models, our testers say, the Galaxy Buds shouldn’t pose problems with comfort or fit for most users.
