Where to start these buds are amazing, great build quality and design. I was worried at first regarding the fit and comfort but they sit on your ears perfect and are so comfy you can't tell they are in. Spund quality is sublime with nice deep base. The app has great customisation and the pairing is easy and quick. Highly recommended to anyone. Now to wait for my note 20 ultra
Was initially a little put of by the design but surprised by how comfortably these feel in your ear. Connecting them to a smartphone could not be simpler, and the sound levels are gorgeous. Using them for music and zoom meetings and everything has been crystal clear. Love how I can charge them with my S20+ as well.
Having read and watched many reviews of the Buds Live, I don't see what the fuss is about. For individuals (Like myself) I was attracted to how different the fit and sound is, rather than the traditional in ear pods, which I really don't like, especially the pressure build up. Anyway, having used the pods for some time, I'm really happy how they perform, even the ANC. For wooly hat wearers, these pods are great, even when taking calls. The dual mic system really delivers even when using ANC, which some reviewers made comments how it can be improved, on the flip side any call I take is clear on both ends. Battery is really good (considering their pods and dependant on your usage) and as always AKG have really kept their standards. After installing the wearable app, set up was simple and straightforward, so no messing about there. Many different features is.....something I'll let you guys look into. For any person out there who don't like in ear pods, then I recommend these very highly. Granted you will hear sounds around you but fit in well and so far I've not had any issues (especially headaches like the in ear tips used to cause) @Samsung, if you do a next gen version I am really looking forward to getting them, and I'm confident you will make great improvements with all feedback. Finally a pair of pods which are actually great.
Good points: Decent sound quality - lacking a little punch in the midrange this can be somewhat corrected for the the dynamic equaliser preset. Open sound signature, sound sounds wide and accurate (for this type of earphone). Well driven bass, but not overbearing. These are definitely not the earphones for bass-only lovers. Despite all the negative reviews about the active noise cancellation, it is actually quite good. The reviewers in question do not seem to know the difference between passive and active cancellation. Obviously you can still hear your surroundings, especially people talking but it does a decent job of reducing general train/transport noise. I went for a run in them this morning and they worked well, staying snugly in my ear and not creating any annoying footstrike noise. They are very comfortable to wear Things to consider These earphones have virtually no passive cancellation. So if you need the world around you to be completely shut out dont go for these. Overall: Good, open earphones.
I don't usually write reviews, but my God, these are absolutely amazing! I've tried other wireless headphones but nothing works quite like these. They're loud, they cancel out noise and they're so comfortable. And lastly, the battery life is amazing! I got them 3 weeks ago and still haven't charged them. I use them for around an hour 4-5 days a week! I really don't understand the negative reviews because Samsung absolutely smashed it with these. You can't even see them and that's what I love. You can touch them to pause, control your music from them, they're just elite. If you're wondering whether they're good with other phones; then yes! I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and these are the best Buds i've tried! Super simple to set up and quick pairing! Buy them, you just won't regret it.
Music sounds outstanding and podcasts etc are perfectly fine, even in a noisy environment. Once you get used to the 'open' sound difference background noise isn't an issue. I listened to the cricket while walking along a busy road in a gale and could still hear without turning the volume up into the red. But then I got my first phone call since getting them and wow. Every other set of buds I've worn, wired or not, if its windy the caller has trouble hearing me but I had a 20-minute call in a gale with no issues. That blew me away (the performance, not the gale!).
I bought this yesterday cause couldn't find time to buy myself bday gift. So far it's very amazing. I love the design,colour, sound quality and the active noise cancellation. Of course it'll take time to get get used to the tapping but overall, I really LOVE IT best earphones have ever had.
I was super sceptical as I'm used to in-ear buds to create a proper seal. I however love them! A fair amount of people have come for the noise cancelling tech, but i definitely notice when I dont have it switched on. The design allows for you to hear the outside world, while still getting clear and clarified sound which is great! So I'd say if you want to completely block out the outside world, then these probably aren't for you. I listen mostly to house and electronic music, so unsure what the sound is like with less bass heavy music, but there's a good range and EQ options! The controls are a little touchy, so if youre wanting to adjust mid song, you gotta get your finger placement right, but its a fair price to pay for such a sleek and unobtrusive design All in all, really enjoying these, and they pair seamlessly with my Samsung Galaxy 10
I redeemed the buds live with my note 20 ultra and the phone is amazing but the buds are overall average. The sound is awesome, the noise cancelling is noticeable when driving and good. Also, the multiple control choices is great. The main thing that downgrades these and is a major issue is the touch controls. They are way too sensitive and will pause/change state just with touches, adjustments or brushes. There is no allowance for adjusting the sensitivity which would cover this issue easily. Also, the controls is more of a touch then a tap and from previous experience the tap is much better. Im a samsung lover but I would never buy these buds unless the controls are fixed.
Having had issues with the silicon tipped in the past when i saw the design of the Buds Live i was really pleased with a more open design and one that was more desecrate than most on the market. I spent some time reading the pre release reviews and decided that these would be the perfect solution for me. The design is good but after a while i found my ears were hurting even with the small wings attached. After sweating i also felt like they were going to fall out. I will admit the sound is pretty good but did not blow me away, there was a slight Tinny sound to them. Active noise cancellation is non existent and my impression is that it just seems to add more on the lower end with it turned on, My main issues are with the connection and sound quality, when i was on a phone call pretty much every phone call would be echoed, i found the right bud would cut in and out and always be slight lagged compared to the left one, When listening to music after a while i would find that the Bass would seem to cut in and out which was really noticeable and annoying, as for the connection if I was to cover my right ear in any way the connection would cut out and really struggle to play music back. I did like the touch sensitive controls but found that when i needed to adjust the buds i would accidentally pause the music or skip a track. I would mention that i did return the first set as i thought they were faulty but the second had exactly the same issues. It is a real shame as i really wanted to love these but having to return them again. :(
