To GOD be all the glory!!!

We have come to one of the most difficult arguments in audio history, which is better, the Samsung Galaxy Buds or the Apple Airpods.

Well, if you review all their features, you will notice some benefits or disadvantages of both, at the end of the day it really depends on what you personally prefer and what device you currently own.

Before the actual argument, a little information on both products the Galaxy Buds are a Samsung product and of course will be more compatible with the Android OS although it could also be used seamlessly with Apple devices, while the Airpods are an Apple product that of course are more compatible with the Apple OS although works seamlessly on Android devices.

The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2019 edition came out on March 8 2019 after their ancestors the Gear Icon X, the Galaxy buds were truly an improvement over the Gear Icon X in aesthetics, audio quality and overall functionality, they came out alongside the Samsung Galaxy S10 .

The Apple Airpods came out on September 7 2016, so they are considerably older than the Galaxy Buds, they came out alongside the Iphone 7 and broke new ground in true wireless earphone technology.

The first thing I will be comparing about these two products is their battery life, the Galaxy Buds have 6 hours battery life in built into the buds themselves and have an extra 7 hours in their wireless charging case.

The Airpods on the other hand have a 4 hour battery life in built into the pods themselves and an extra 20 hours built into the charging case.

So as we can see in battery life the Apple Airpods are better if you are willing to carry the very portable case with you every where you go, while the Samsung Earbuds are better for more on the go activities in which you will not always have the wireless charging case with you.

Next is their comfortability in the ear, I personally believe that the Galaxy Earbuds are more comfortable because they come with a lot of attachments to match the users demand while the Apple Airpods basically have the same ear insertion shape and do not come with any attachments.

However the final decision on comfortability is up to you because everyone is made different, and to one person, the Earbuds may not have any attachment that suits him but to another person that one insertion shape may be what he/she has been looking for.

Next is the aesthetics, I personally believe that the Galaxy Earbuds are finer than the Apple Airpods, simply because of the long protruding stem that comes out of the Airpods.

Again this is completely up to the user of the Airpods or the Galaxy Buds.

The Apple Airpods do not have any tangible touch pads, screens or buttons but the Airpods themselves and their charging case are filled with different functions, you could customize it and make it that a touch on one Airpod plays the next track while a touch on the other calls up Siri.

Meanwhile the Galaxy Buds have touch pads which could be used to perform various functions such as skipping songs, playing either the previous track or the next track, you could also answer calls, place calls on hold, switch between call on hold and current call, turn on ambient soud which allows you to hear what is happening in the surroundings which is particularly important when going on a walk or a cycle and need to hear horns and things like that etc.

Most functions on the Galaxy Buds are controlled from the Samsung Wearables app that is not available on IOS so if you have an Iphone you might want to consider that before making a selection on which product you want to buy.

In price, the difference is really not that much, as the complete Airpods set with the wireless charging case costs about $150 while the Galaxy Earbuds cost about $130, one more thing to note abou the prices and how the products are sold is that the Airpods could be boight without the wireless charging case and the wireless charging case could be bought without the Airpods, while the Galaxy Buds originally come with the charging case but could be bought from a few places without it, it is very rarely that you will see the Galaxy Earbuds charging case being sold separately.
