- So when I told a few buds that I was reviewing the beans,

they were really excited for me because if you know me,

The subjunctive

- Nice pot of pinto beans in the crock pot.

- Could everybody please leave so I can eat my beans?

to get such a fresh form factor these days.

So when I opened up the poorly named Galaxy Buds Live,

but I was definitely expecting some compromises.

Like maybe the audio quality was going to be a bit off or

they managed to be something completely new

Buds come in mystic bronze, mystic white, or mystic black,

but Samsung gave me the bronze to test out.

And to be honest, I don't think this bronze

in that these are not beans, these are buds department.

This is almost the exact color of a kidney bean.

there was one feature I was shocked to hear

and that was active noise cancellation or ANC.

So I knew one place I was definitely going to test them out.

So we're on our way to the Brooklyn Heights Promenade

because it is a beautiful location to film,

But it also has one fatal flaw that makes it perfect

for testing this active noise cancellation.

The Buds Live have what Samsung is calling

The Buds Live were able to cancel the lowest level hum

especially the saxophone that was being played

The Galaxy Buds Plus do more in canceling out

background noise simply by their in-ear design.

And then the AirPod Pros take that a step further

with their in-ear design and true active noise cancellation.

The Buds themselves are glossy on the outside

and matte on the part that sits inside your ear.

and when I saw the renderings of the case,

much like the clamshell case of the Powerbeats Pro.

It's about one and a half times wider than the AirPods case

and it's a little bit lighter than the Pixel Buds case.

and that's probably a good thing because the buds,

while they do have a bit of a cradle, it's not very deep.

And yes, there are magnets that hold them in,

but they're not the strongest magnets in the world.

Dropping buds is a very scary experience.

Case charges wirelessly or via USB-C port round back

while each bud can last for around six hours

For context, the AirPod Pros with ANC turned on

will get you an hour of listening time back though.

In case you missed the Samsung Unpacked event last week,

- Okay, that has nothing to do with this video,

- We compared Buds Live with the pair of wireless earphones
