What people are saying
A trusted pick by audiophiles, the Samsung earbuds have earned an average rating of 4.3 stars based on more than 2,400 reviews.
Given a 4.2-star rating or higher for battery life and sound quality, shoppers say you "won't regret buying" them.
"Wow! Blown away," writes one reviewer, who says that the active noise cancellation is "incredible" at removing "lower sounds," like fans and air conditioning.
According to another shopper, the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live are the "most comfortable earbuds" they've ever tried. You can "wear them for ages" because they "cradle in [the] ear comfortably," they write.
They're the "best" open-ear wireless headphones "in the world," raves a third reviewer. They gently rest in your ear "like a pillow," have the audio quality of a "home theatre," and offer the "clearest sound you'll find."

However, despite hundreds of positive reviews, some shoppers say the noise cancellation feature is "disappointing."
The earbuds offer "great sound and fit," but the noise cancellation "isn't very noticeable at all," according to one reviewer.
Another shopper writes that while they were "pleasantly surprised" by the Samsung headphones, the ANC is "mediocre."
The active noise cancellation is "very weak" and "almost unnoticeable," they say.
The verdict
If you're looking to snag a bargain on Samsung headphones, Amazon shoppers are "blown away" by the Galaxy Buds Live, with some reviewers calling them the best open-ear wireless headphones they've found. However, a handful of shoppers say the active noise cancellation feature is "mediocre," something to consider before making your purchase.
