Overview

The Samsung Galaxy Buds2 Pro are premium in-ear wireless earbuds designed for buyers who want effective Active Noise Cancellation, detailed sound and close integration with Samsung Galaxy devices.

Their custom coaxial two-way speakers separate high and low frequencies for clearer, more balanced audio. Compatible Galaxy devices can also use Samsung Seamless Codec HiFi for 24-bit audio, while 360 Audio creates a more immersive listening experience for supported content.

The compact earbuds weigh 5.5g each and have IPX7 water resistance, making them suitable for commuting, exercise and everyday listening. Battery life reaches up to 5 hours with Active Noise Cancellation enabled and up to 18 hours when combined with the charging case.

Key Highlights

1. Custom Two-Way Speakers and 24-Bit Audio

Each Galaxy Buds2 Pro earbud uses a custom coaxial two-way speaker to reproduce high and low frequencies through dedicated drivers.

Compatible Samsung Galaxy devices can transmit 24-bit audio through Samsung Seamless Codec HiFi.

Why it matters:

Two-way speakers can provide clearer separation between vocals, bass and treble
24-bit audio retains more detail when used with compatible Galaxy devices and content
Suitable for buyers who prioritise audio quality in a compact design

2. Active Noise Cancellation with Voice Detect

Active Noise Cancellation reduces surrounding sound during travel, work and everyday listening. Ambient Sound lets external sound through when greater awareness is needed.

Voice Detect can recognise when the wearer starts speaking and automatically reduce the volume while activating Ambient Sound.

Why it matters:

Reduces distractions during commuting or focused listening
Ambient Sound makes it easier to hear announcements and nearby conversations
Voice Detect allows brief conversations without manually changing listening modes

3. Compact Fit with IPX7 Water Resistance

Galaxy Buds2 Pro use an in-ear design with silicone ear tips and weigh 5.5g per earbud. The earbuds carry an IPX7 water-resistance rating.

Why it matters:

Compact earbuds are easier to carry and less noticeable when worn
Silicone tips help create a secure seal for bass response and noise cancellation
IPX7 protection provides greater water resistance than many earlier Galaxy Buds models
