The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 is the latest true wireless headset from the Korean company, but it isn't the flagship product in the range. Priced at Rs. 11,999, this is a mid-range headset with a good feature set, including active noise cancellation, app support with Android smartphones, and support for the Scalable advanced Bluetooth codec. The headset offers decent sound and battery life, but isn't quite the flagship experience you get from the Galaxy Buds Pro.
The Scalable codec is limited to Samsung smartphones, there's no iOS app support, and the IPX2 water resistance rating is a bit disappointing, but on the whole, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 is well priced and offers plenty to like. It's a very good pick if you have a Samsung smartphone, and offers a good core experience even if you have any other source device.
