Buds pro don't stay without wing tips
I had this same issue while running with them. See if this works: When inserting them in, twist them backwards so that the vent is pointing forward, rather than down. This gave me a much more secure fit. Edit: I just ran 23 mins in the rain with them using this fit, and never had to touch them. I was thinking the rainwater would cause them to slip out, but they barely moved. Definitely try this fit. More on reddit.com

Galaxy Buds Live without wingtips

I wear mine without the wingtips...my left ear is slightly smaller than my right and even without wingtips it can hurt after a while if its not adjusted propperly, but my right ear without wingtips I cant feel at all and usually forget they are there. I think they dont advise you to wear them without because they may slip out if the ear is too big or because they might scratch since the plastic is hard. But honestly the sillicon tips are just as hard as the plastic so Idk how they are any better. I wish samsung made foam tips for them in more sizes so that they could fit and be more comfortable. But until they do, I just stick with no ear tips. Also, I noticed that after a while you do get used to them. Took me close to two weeks to get used to because Ive never used truly wireless earbuds before so I wasnt used to having something cling onto that part of my ear at all.

I just got the Galaxy buds+ and the wingtips hurt my ears
At the beginning I would insert the earbuds and twist them forward to lock them in. This would cause pain where the top of the wingtip contacts the ear. I eventually noticed that twisting the earbuds backwards after inserting helps. Using them for a few weeks seems to help your ears get used to them too. Maybe try this to see if it helps.

r/galaxybuds on Reddit: Got my Buds 2 Pro to fit way better with some wingtips
August 9, 2022 -

I've had issues with the fit of the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro since I got them. Both become loose but the right one is especially bad.

I bought some wingtips from ebay designed for "Galaxy buds & Galaxy buds + R175" according to the seller. They actually fit my buds really well and I was able to work outside today for hours without adjusting them at all. I have to remove them when puttting them into the case but I'll accept that small inconvenience.

Hope that can help anyone else having fit issues.

tldr - use smallest wingtip and put foam tape for better grip/fit v1 https://imgur.com/a/3zo6HpE v2 https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxybuds/comments/b86pju/if_the_mediumlarge_wingtips_make_your_ears_sore/ejxdt9f/

A few weeks ago, I posted comment on someone's post about the fit of the buds hurting their ears. I've been running into the same issue. The gist of my tip was to use the smallest wingtip, which was the most comfortable because it is essentially not even a wingtip. It's flush with the buds. The major problem was that it wasn't as secure in your ear and would fall out.

Here's a link to my comment

https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxybuds/comments/b39nrr/fit_guide/eizhmwn/?context=0

Here's the comment itself

I've been experimenting with the fits all week. My biggest issue is the medium+ wingtips push against the back of my ears just a little too much and causes them to be sore. What I did was found the tip that fit best by removing the wingtips altogether. After that, I put on the different wingtips. The smallest isn't as tight of a fit because it's not actually a wingtip, kind of just a rubber band. But, it was the most comfortable and I could still run with it.. just not 100% secure. Maybe like 90% secure. But I'm willing to live with that.

To put it on:

  1. I put the tip into my ear canal

  2. Rotate it towards the back of my ear (counter clockwise for the right ear and clockwise for the left) so the bud flush with it and fit more securely

  3. I push the bottom of the bud in so it goes deeper into the canal after finding the right angle

More tips: When I was experimenting with the medium wingtips, I found that with my left ear, rotating them towards the front relieved pressure. With my right ear, it was more comfortable, so I rotated it towards the back of my ear because there was less pressure and made it more secure. Your ears aren't perfectly symmetrical. It just made the buds fit/feel different for each ear and triggered my OCD like crazy so I didn't go with it. Also, try different size tips/wingtips for different ears. Small on left, medium on right, etc.

Update/Improvement

At first I thought maybe it being a little less secure is fine but, in reality, it's not. Not when you're running, you really don't want a chance of it falling out. I had it almost fall out once and it was very anxiety inducing. What I did was, while still using the small wingtip, I added a strip of foam tape to the buds to act as a "wingtip" but it's much softer and more compatible with smaller ears.

Here's how it came out

Edit: 2nd version in the comment

Basically, it adds some grip to the back of the buds. In my case, it also forces the back of the buds to touch my ear back there at all times. Without the foam tape, I found that the back of the buds would lift off my ears every now and then, causing them to slowly wiggle out.

Still fits in the charger as long as the strip is thin enough. No one will see the foam tape when it's in your ears. This was just my first attempt at this and it took less than a minute. Could be worth a shot for anyone struggling with making these fit better.

Hopefully this helps some people out.
