Hello everybody,
I've been recently thinking of replacing my halfway artifact Galaxy S9 with a Galaxy S24, and since the latter doesn't have a 3.5 mm jack connector, I've also been thinking of buying a set of Galaxy earbuds. I have one of my friends' Buds2 Pro to test for the weekend, and could I be any happier I have borrowed them... The sound quality is surprisingly poor - to me at least -, it's much worse than what I expected.
The low-range is decent, which shouldn't be surprising considering the genres popular nowadays, I think they're perfect for that purpose. The mid-range is actually significantly clearer compared to the wired AKG in-ear headset that came with my S9, although it really lacks space, and I mean really - it feels like a little music stick poking my ears after having been completely embraced and buried in music for years. I'm sorry for the dumb analogy, I don't think I could explain it any better as English is not my first language. Finally, the high-range is what hurts my ears the most, all high sounds are way too clinky, clicky and clacky.
I mainly listen to death metal - melodic, symphonic, technical - and a bit of black metal and psychedelic stuff every now and then, and I don't want to sound like an audiophile or a snob, but I might be a bit of a music addict - I love and I need to hear all the instruments properly.
After a few hours of listening, I thought that the Bluetooth version (S9 5.0, S24 5.3) may affect how these buds sound, although I doubt that it could affect the amount of outlet they have. Still, hoping that there are many helpful users with much more experience with TWS earbuds, I wanted to ask whether it is worth for me to keep considering them, or I should rather look for a decent wired headset with USB-C connector for the same price. I understand that the manufacturers have to squeeze batteries and Bluetooth antennas besides the speakers into these tiny buds, so they may never sound as good as their wired counterparts where all the space are for the speakers.
Any help, advice and opinions, or bud recommendations are welcome - thank you in advance!
