Product details

The new Galaxy Buds Live combines iconic and ergonomic design with rich sound and advanced comfort. In addition, the new Galaxy Buds Live's Active Noise Reduction (ANC) not only provides an active and
intense sound experience, but also the outstanding call and voice quality of its class. The earphones and case have a unique design and a new shape. The ergonomic, rounded design increases wearing comfort and makes them a stylish fashion accessory. The new Galaxy Buds Live are available in the colours Mystic Bronze, Mystic Black and Mystic White and perfectly match your style.

Thanks to Sound by AKG and even larger 12 mm speakers with a bass channel, Galaxy Buds Live has a much better sound quality. So you can enjoy your music anywhere. For the first time, Galaxy Buds Live features ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) to ensure that you hear what you want to hear, be it music or the voice of the person you're talking to on the phone. The Galaxy Buds Live have 3 built-in microphones. This ensures that every word you say is perfectly captured. The new Galaxy Buds Live has a playback time of 22 hours and a quick-charging function. So you can enjoy 35 minutes of music with only 3 minutes charging time. They are also Qi-compatible: this means that you can charge your Galaxy Buds Live on the go with your Samsung Galaxy Smartphone or any Qi-compatible wireless charger.

Wireless headphones in the test Better without cables, say many headphone buyers. Bluetooth headphones do not require a connection cable - there are no more trip hazards. There are models in the classic design of a headphone with a headband and, as an alternative, in-ear headphones - tiny in size, but not in sound...

Other noise-cancelling headphones provide more isolation - but not everyone likes that. The Galaxy Buds Live with their special way are a good alternative. There's nothing to complain about in terms of sound and function, and the price is comparatively low.
