They don’t fall, constant music and ally of the Galaxy Watch 6

The last headphones I tried from Samsung were the Galaxy Buds in 2021 and they covered everything you can expect from a wireless headset in terms of sound quality and experience, but in sports practice, when you do runningYes be a good music lover and a picky audiophile, placed in the pavilion of my ears, they have ‘loosened’ a little to lose efficiency and power in terms of volume, bass and mids. Everything has changed with the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro.

In fact, when I received them to prepare for the Zurich Rock’n’Roll Running Series Madrid with Samsung GO, I was always afraid that the same experience would come back. That is, you put them on, you start running and at the rhythm of your strides, the logical thing is that they start to loosen the shell of the ear a little, as happened with the Galaxy Buds. This was the fear I felt and so for a few days I continued to use other headphones which, in that sense, suited me well once finished. runningthe Huawei Freebuds 5i.

Here brands launching wireless headphones are playing with different designs: supraauditory types (On the ear) like the Apple AirPods to the new Motorola Buds+, including the hook type like the Soundcore Sport X10. Within hearing aids, the most common among technological brands, there is a wide variety of models and depending on the needs of each person, some adapt better than others, either due to their better active noise cancellation, or their audio quality. , during calls or simply because they don’t fall while playing sports. In my case, the quality of the audio and the fact that they remain fixed are essential.

Return to my fear of the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, I finally decided to try them, especially because I knew that, as a whole, they offer a great experience and at the audio level, of course, they also stand out a lot; one of the aspects to which I always attach great importance; and I repeat about picky music lovers and audiophiles.

Before moving on to the experience of their use, a little reminder of the best specifications of these headphones: 24-bit Hi-Fi sound, active noise cancellation (ANC) with three high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) microphones, ergonomic design for a comfortable fit and 360 audio. Other details are Bluetooth 5.3, IPX7 resistance . for water, SSC HiFi, AAC and SBC audio codecs, voice detection, calls and 5 and 8 hours of battery life with ANC and without ANC respectively (without case).

I have to remember that when I run, I don’t like to do it at a trot, but I always try to put on one more speed, because I always liked to go out and do running as well as the practice of other sports such as football. What I mean is at the rate I’m going, it’s already pushing the design and sound of the headset to the extreme when doing sports, the test was therefore maximum for the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro.

And to my surprise: Samsung was capable with the design of the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro —Different from Galaxy Buds with ergonomic design and Wind Flow technology to reduce ear canal pressure— that they adapt perfectly to the shell of my ear, and even if they can come off “a little”, both the volume and the quality of the bass, mids and treble are never lost and are well maintained.

Important information to better understand my needs: do running I listen to electronic music, just so the bass is still there without losing power or volume, I push with every step I takeThis is vital in my case.

The first pleasant surprise It quickly became, “Well, let’s see how they do in a few minutes.”because the fear was always present that at some point I would have to adjust them by doing running. Time passed and passed until I simply forgot I was wearing them and got carried away with the electronic music session, the miles I had left to go and the wear and tear produced by performing sessions of five sets of two kilometers running and one fast walking. (a total of 15 km).

Galaxy Watch 6 Companion

And here is the answer, in the end the Galaxy Buds Pro 2 They have become inseparable companions every time I run. (and yes, I’m sorry for the Huawei ones, how much I loved them), as well as the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 which was able to display my advanced running metrics to indicate that I can improve my flight time (including feet are in the air or touching the ground) to make an effort to lift my knee higher when running, and another piece of information given to me in recent days.

One which is important, but which has its logic, since the workouts recorded with the Galaxy Watch 6 are transferred to Samsung Health on the Galaxy S24 Ultra showed that he was losing a little verticality; The logic for this to happen is that I did sessions of running of 10 km day after day in preparation for the Zurich Rock’n’Roll Running Series Madrid on April 28.

And like, getting used to such a distance is not easy. I now know, thanks to the Galaxy Watch 6 measuring my stride, that I need to be more aware of vertical oscillation when I walk. running, especially in the last two kilometers of 10 km, when this constant appears; and yes, I don’t need to force myself so much (or boycott myself) so that the day comes when I can do the 10 km without the effort that it requires now, and I can maintain the vertical in the process constantly from first to last. last mile.
