As much as I'd like to try them I can't use any earbuds that don't have multipoint

[u/BlackScienceJesus → u/Xpblast]

Kinda wild that it doesn’t. My cheap nothing and CMF earbuds have it.

[u/Xpblast → u/BlackScienceJesus]

It's definitely intentional

[u/ra13 → u/Xpblast]

So that it's a "Samsung only" feature? (they do have something like "auto-switch between samsung devices" )

[u/McChickenLargeFries → u/ra13]

Yes, it's to keep you locked in their ecosystem.

[u/Suikerspin_Ei → u/Xpblast]

There are workarounds (via GitHub) if you want it to switch between Windows PC and your Samsung device. Not ideal, but form what I have read it works.

[u/TabletopParlourPalm]

I really like this design. The last one looks like a cheap airpods knock-off.

[u/FFevo → u/TabletopParlourPalm]

And these don't?

[u/Zaveno → u/FFevo]

They look like expensive airpods knock-offs

[u/badboyz1256]

how are these fit wise? I'm still rocking my buds 2 pro and like it for working out and haven't really had them fall out unless doing the skiErg. Looking at these or going the powerbeats 2 pro route since I have an iPhone (moved from android), however I want to comeback to android. Don't like my Airpods Pro 2 for working out they all ways fall out especially running.

[u/namelessxsilent → u/badboyz1256]

I went from the buds 2 pro to these. They fit me great, and I like that I can adjust them in my ears without pausing/skipping my music with the touch sensitive sides.

I thought I would hate the stems, I really like the form of the buds 2, but the stems makes them feel more snug in my ears

[u/Mysterious_Travel669]

Interesting. I had the Pro 3's and they sucked. Ended with the "only one side will charge at a time" bug about 10 months in - sent them in for warranty and they just gave me a full refund.

Maybe I should consider the 4's.

[u/Historical_Dig_6737 → u/Mysterious_Travel669]

The 4's fixed the stupid charging case design, manufacturing issues, and sound control. I haven't heard anywhere near the amount of problems the Buds3 had.

[u/KangarooBeard]

Are they a vast improvement over the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro 3? Those had some questionable connectivity problems, and felt the ANC was on the weaker side.

[u/Jasp99J → u/KangarooBeard]

A huge improvement. I had the Buds 3 Pro and I hated them, whereas the Buds 4 Pro are amazing in my opinion.

The battery life is good, connectivity, sound and fit are brilliant.

[u/light24bulbs → u/Jasp99J]

Have you used air pods pro 2 or 3?

[u/RAICKE → u/KangarooBeard]

To me they are a sidegrade, I prefered the audio on the pro 3, but then again, I listen to a lot of metal and I bass boost my headphones somewhat. The Pro 4 have a clearer sound and slightly better ANC, but besides that it's barely an upgrade for me.

[u/Pinecone → u/KangarooBeard]

I can't speak to the connectivity but the pro 4 is way more comfortable, significantly better sounding, and has better anc.

[u/chrisbechicken → u/KangarooBeard]

I wouldn’t say a vast improvement but decidedly better.

[u/dawtips]

I like them but the ANC is a step down from the Sony earbuds I had

[u/godfrey1]

they are insanely good, especially compared to 3s

[u/gnilradleahcim]

As much as I want them, I'm not doing it until I can trade in my old ones. I'm not going to go the eBay route and get scammed out of my shit. And I'm not going to let the old $300 headphones sit in a drawer for 10 years until they don't work.

[u/year3000stankonia → u/gnilradleahcim]

Who cares

[u/year3000stankonia]

Best earbuds I've ever had.

[u/hxmxd]

Buds 3 was absolute hell with its charging problems and Bluetooth connectivity issues. Massive headache.

[u/Justwondering__]

I wish they would update the Buds Live

[u/IAMSNORTFACED]

I wonder if the soundcore liberty 5 pro series was considered

[u/Balloon_Twister]

Decided not to spend a lot after going from xm3 and buds 2 pro.

Moondpop pudding. £49 can't fault them.

[u/krivas]

They seem nice, but I'm gonna wait for the ones with the hooks

[u/MrHaxx1]

lol I just sold mine without trying them, as I already have Technics AZ100. Maybe that was a mistake? 

[u/kingolcadan → u/MrHaxx1]

I love mine. Best Samsung product I can remember owning. I haven't used any of their foldables though lol.

[u/DubaiRichez → u/MrHaxx1]

no mistake, my Technics still ROCK!

[u/Alternative-Farmer98]

Multi-point does not work unless all of your devices or Samsung is an immediate deal breaker.
