Already got SMS for collection and picked up just then
I would do too but can't justify upgrade from current buds pro which i got free with s21 ultra
Seems to be a price error. It's great that they can honor it!
Ive got a fold 4 and watch 5.
Are there any advantages to buds over say my beats powerbeats pro ?
You can be a proud samsung eco system owner…. Jk
If beats is comfortable, just stick with them
Yeah, nah :). The watch complements the phone really well.
The beats are great and comfortable, was just checking there wasnt another layer of ecosystem integration I'm missing out on :)
These have much better sound quality
Yes, custom Samsung audio codec and HD 24 bit audio. Even without that these have great sounds and great ANC.
24 bit audio is a gimmick. It still won't be lossless. Also you need a new Samsung phone for it to work.
Those aren't the Pros..
buds2 not the bud2pro
@DollarHunter do you even dollar hunt bro?
Nice price, don't need them.
Ok, couldn't resist, called OW and got PB. 160.55 for C&C.
A classic Ozbargain tale
I already have buds live sleeping in cupboard. Now this just sleeps next to it
I should of done this, they dont check it once you get there? I was driving to OW and when I refresh the page the page was gone 😭.
Guess they don’t sell like AirPods
I use the QCY-T18 and used the galaxy's.
I prefer the QCY-T18 's as the bass is better.
Also bought them for $39I guess its probably great for the price you're paying but I doubt its gonna be better than something from Samsung normally selling at 10x the price.
You'd be surprised, Samsung/Sony/etc have huge overheads and they need to receive that cost. Hence higher price.
Like, people are buying for the brand to show off or believing it's better.
But like, Boss, loose one ear bud and that's $200 gone. Then you are left with another $200 ear bud on it's own.
I lost the right ear of my Google Buds and I wonder if this is a suitable replacement or I should learn the lesson that I can't have true wireless!
these are very good
U can! Just buy other brands like Soundpeats, QCY.
Some perform even better.
Like anything new, Bic ompanies release it, takes some time for alternatives to catch up, the beat the big techs.does any of those have ambient mode like samsung do ?
I really like that technology and wonder if I can score one even cheaper than this.As in you can by hear outside or activate noise cancelling and not?
Yeah most do.
QCY-T18 does.@Elias11: Thanks, sad can't find them on ebay though
so the way it works on mrs buds2 is like
when you put them on ears and don't play any music you hear such sound (white noise) and it works well for me.

No, you cannot replace a lost google bud with samsung bud 😜
You can. Just one sized mono sound 😂😂
Can't price beat at office works, they said model number isn't the same
Just did over the phone. Try again
Thanks 3rd time lucky - - depending who you get over the phone 😂
Can they work just as well with a Pixel 7 Pro or do I need to have a Samsung phone to gain all the benefits of these earphones?
as long as samsung wear works on your phone
This is wrong
You need a Samsung Phone
This is not true. You can even use these on an iPhone if you really wanted to. No need to misinform.
I'm not misinforming, you are lol.
The 24bit Hi-Fi only works with Samsung phones, as well as some other features, and I was commenting directly to the question about getting all the benefits with a device other than Samsung.
Read here: https://www.samsung.com/au/audio-sound/galaxy-buds/galaxy-bu…
@giventofly: I think you might be replying to the wrong comment then. If you scroll up there is no mention of 24bit hifi. 'Trishool' just wants to know if they will work with their phone, irrespective of '24 bit hifi'. Think before you type :)
Edit: 'additional features' is not specified by Trishool so we might both be wrong.
@heef: No. You’re wrong.
I replied to the right comment.
24 Bit is a benefit of these earbuds if you have a Samsung phone.
Why are you like this? Concede defeat!
@giventofly: Nah Trishool didn't mention 24bit audio as something they desired, and until they do, I shall remain taut.
Apply perks code, $159
What is the perks code?
Thanks
Jabra Elite 7 Pro vs Buds 2 pro anyone?
if you got samsung phone go with samsung buds, simple
A lot of reviews I am seeing recommend the Jabra Elite 5, very confused by this.
Elite 5 are a newer model, serves as a middle ground between the 4 and the 7. From what I know they are better value than the 7's feature wise but that's about it. Elite 7 still overall better but can't remember why lol.
Has to be pricing error, insane price for these great buds!
$209.40 on Samsung's education store.
thanks OP! family christmas gift sorted!
These come close to airpods pro 2 at a fraction of the price. rtings gives the airpods the "slight edge". So if you have a Samsung phone this is a no brainer deal due to the custom codec and 24 bit HD audio.
https://www.rtings.com/headphones/tools/compare/samsung-gala…
Can anyone compare these to jabra 75t ?
Here's a good video review and comparison with some of the best from Samsung, Apple and Sony.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45AHeEquI-sPulled the trigger for $159, not sure whether I should keep this or the Sony WF-1000XM4 I got from Amazon for $200…..
Using a S22
Why not both? :)
I own both.
XM4 has better noise isolation and ANC.
Buds2 Pro fits more comfortably.
XM4 call quality is sh!te.
Buds Pro 2 is highly regarded for quality of sound. This might help (no it doesn't have the XM4).
Crinacles rankings of IEMsHaha I shared crinacle's video review of these headphones above.
Thanks for that!
Do you think the difference justify $40ish?My preference would be the Buds 2 Pro over the XM4 for the following
- Sound quality (if crinacle is right :D)
- Call quality (have listened to multiple comparisons of the XM4. Buds 2 Pro were consistently better)
- Great price
- !!! BUT !!! Buds 2 Pro don't have multipoint. It's not a deal breaker but might be for you.@OrderedChaos: XM4 Call Quality isn't great. Don't think I've used anything that does sound great.
That said, using the Buds2Pro right now for my calls and no ones complaining so :|
So.. no stock within 200km but I somehow managed to order via click and collect. I avoided the shipping fee but worried now that they will cancel my order.
Thinking I should order another one via delivery just incase.
Just got the Sony WF-1000XM4 the other day via Amazon deal for like $230 … I presume the Sony one is better than the Samsung one in this deal? Or not much difference?
The Sony WF-1000XM4 are hard to beat in terms of ANC and sound quality especially with LDAC.
Buds have more accurate sound and better ANC according to rtings. Saying that probably not worth changing since you already have the Sony. If you use a Samsuing phone then maybe worth it due to Samsung custom codecs and 24 bit audio. https://www.rtings.com/headphones/tools/compare/samsung-gala…
get both !
Returned the Amazon XM4s and picked up Momentum TW 3 from OW on a PM. Decision point was the shockingly poor call quality on the XM4's.
… but the Buds 2 Pro's at this price… yikes! Do I change my mind :D:DI did same got MW3 for the missus Christmas present now with these on such a great deal I bought a pair of them too. Will give missus choice which ones she wants I'll take the others. She does have a galaxy phone and I don't though so maybe I'll score the MW3s
Good job 😁. Missed it. Had it in my cart… and it changed price on me.
I lost the right bud, is there anyway I can have just order the right bud or are they all individually paired?
you can ask support and they will quote a price which is probably very close to this.
source: lost the original bud (live? not sure), and went to support 2-3 months back and they said it would be around $150 for the lost bud replacement.
I still have buds 2. Has anyone have both? and is that worth to upgrade?
Is it good for phone calls?
I have a Samsung phone and while old airpods 2 was perfect, no one is able to hear me clearly with the new aipods pro gen2!!Works good for me.
Have two unused Buds2 non pro, still take want to put the trigger.
Jb found out :)
They were matching non-proTook the whole page down… can't price match at OW now. :(
good for noise cancel?
Yes these have great ANC
thanks, but it's gone now
Congrats to all those who scored a pair before the price error was picked up!
Damn missed it.
I have an order in for click and collect. Will they cancel it now? Don't have sms for pick up as store is still closed etc.
Thx OP. Just collected mine. Ordered before the page got taken down
Damn, too slow!
Thanks OP, ordered and picked up just after store opening :D
Hmm I have had payment taken for OWs pricebeat with delivery but no confirmation yet I may miss out
Just went to the shop and bought in the city
Did it scan at $169 in store? Or you ordered online when it was available and picked up?
I went instore at Brisbane, the scanned price was the $349, but the pd price (whatever that means) was the $169, and he checked the site.

Misprice possibly. Says rrp 249 reduced to this.
