I have a Samsung S22 but I'm thinking about buying AirPods Pro instead of Galaxy Buds. Am I going to face some type of sound loss issue even though I do have a built-in equalizer in my phone? - Quora
Answer: Most likely yes. Apparently, many people have reported that when using AirPods on Android or other non Apple devices, the maximum volume seems to be limited (volume on AirPods cannot go very high unless you use an iPhone). Seems like Apple purposely limits the volume of the AirPods when u...

Galaxy Buds Plus (+) vs AirPods Pro 2
I will be honest with you since you own an iPhone go with airpods no matter what they say to you the experience of having 2 or more apple products all functioning together, is what keeping each of us at apple even when iphone airpods etc... took alone are not the best. The combo Iphone + airpods is unbeatable. Give it a try and if you don't like it, airpods sells really good so you can still resell them and get your galaxy buds but try the airpods first.

Should I buy the AirPods Pro or the Galaxy Buds Plus?

Galaxy Buds + is a better choice if you consider value. But there are two major factors to consider:

Is active noise cancelling important for you? Because passive noise cancelling is pretty satisfying for GB+.

How much you will use software? For an iPhone, Airpod integration will be better. Although GB+ do have an app for iPhones but not as feature rich as for Android, at least that's the last info I got.

Galaxy buds Plus (+) vs AirPods Pro 2

You're not getting the best sound quality from the Galaxy Buds already since you're limited to SBC codec because the Samsung Scalable Codec only works with Samsung phones. Switching to basically any good quality earbuds that support AAC codecs would improve your sound quality experience. So yes the upgrade from the Buds to the Airpods would result in better sound quality for you since you'll gain access to a better audio codec plus other QoL features of using an iPhone with an Apple Airpod.

r/airpods on Reddit: Galaxy Buds Plus (+) vs AirPods Pro 2
July 20, 2023 -

Hi !

I currently have an IPhone 13 Pro Max and Galaxy buds+ I was wondering if upgrading from the buds+ to AirPods Pro 2 was worth it ? I have some more questions too,

Currently the galaxy buds + fit my ear very well so I don’t want to change to something that would be uncomfortable to wear, so how are the AirPods on that aspect ? Do they fit well ? And do they fall out easily ?

Which has the better sound quality between both of them ?

which has the best mic ?

Which is the best overall ?

Honestly the price isn’t an issue if AirPods are really better, and please do not be biased because we are on the AirPods sub, I want yall real opinions and advices

I would have loved to try some AirPods Pro 2 but I don’t know how I could manage to get my hands some

Thanks in advance

Update:

I made the leap during Christmas, if y’all are hesitating, just buy it. It’s night and day, my first use of the APP was insane, the noise cancellation on these things are insane, as well as the transparency mode and the audio quality. I regret nothing. They fit great in my ear, thanks to the different size ear tips. It’s perfect.

I switched from Samsung to iphone after about 4 years of ditching apple. The security breach and not telling customers about it soured me when I was already looking to switch back to iphone. I had the buds plus and buds 2. While they worked the functionality was completely hampered. Go figure. I bit the bullet on the airpod pro 2 and the difference felt like night and day. The sound sounded better. The different listening settings were a game changer working as a delivery driver. I also found that I wasnt fixing the position of the airpods as much, meaning they fit my ears better and didn't slip out. And honestly the convenience of just opening the case and popping them in makes me never wanna get rid of them. Granted, IF you own a Samsung obviously the functionality of the buds will be better and more integrated. Same thing with the airpods. But in an apples to apples (pun not intended) comparison I think the airpods are some of the best Bluetooth earbuds around. Your mileage may vary, but I think the airpod pros 2 are a next step up in quality and usefulness (on an iphone).

August 10, 2020 - Because of this, the ambient sound mode from earlier models like the Galaxy Buds Plus isn't available, because it's effectively on all the time. Users will still be able to hear events happening in the environment, just it won't be able to block noise as well as full ANC. AirPods, however, benefit from a Transparency mode that can be enabled, one which funnels through some environmental sounds to the user. This means the AirPods can provide both a full ANC experience and one with selective environmental audio, granting the best of both worlds.

Either way, I've been playing around with all three(my wife has the Pros), and while the "AirPods Pro use a custom-built high-excrusion, low-distortion speaker driver, in combination with a high dynamic range amplifier for a clear sound profile"... AKG just sounds better. Even playing around with iOS equalizer's settings, I just couldn't get the Pros to sounds as good as the beans. Even the bass delivered by the BudsLive is richer, which is surprising being that the Pros plug into the ear canal vs the BudsLive which sit just outside of it.
