How to wear your Samsung earbuds
In the past, you may have worn earbuds that either pinched your ears or were too loose. Both options are equally uncomfortable, whether you're out jogging or just listening to music. Thankfully, you'll never have those problems with your Samsung earbuds. If they don't fit right, you can simply swap the earbud tips and wingtips. If you wear your buds correctly, it will help ensure they remain comfortable while providing the best sound and call quality possible. You can find the best Samsung earbuds for your lifestyle on our website.
Caution: Do not insert the earbuds in your ears without earbud tips or wingtips because it may harm your ears. Do not pull the earbud tip or wingtip excessively because they may tear. If you experience ear pain or skin irritation at any time while using the earbuds or other in-ear devices, please stop using the device immediately and consult with your doctor.
Attach the earbud tips and wingtips on your Galaxy Buds and Galaxy Buds+
The earbud tips for Galaxy Buds and Galaxy Buds+ differ slightly from other models.
Flip the earbud tip inside out, and insert it over the latch at the bottom of the earbud, lining up the hole on the earbud tip over the latch.
Then, push the earbud tip down to attach to the latch.
Just like you did for the earbud tips, you'll need to select the best fitting pair of wingtips. Depending on the earbuds you have, you’ll have different wingtips to choose from.
Cover the earbud with the wingtip, and then adjust it so it’s seated properly on the earbud. Also, make sure the heart rate sensor isn't blocked, if your earbuds have one.
Repeat the steps for the other earbud.
Attach the earbud tips on your Galaxy Buds Pro, Galaxy Buds2, and Galaxy Buds2 Pro
Your Galaxy Buds Pro, Buds2, and Buds2 Pro come with earbud tips that are similar to those on the Galaxy Buds and Galaxy Buds+.
Flip the earbud tip inside out, and then insert it over the latch at the bottom of the earbud.
Make sure to line up the hole on the earbud tip with the latch on the bud.
Then, push the earbud tip down to finish attaching it.
When wearing the earbuds, there should not be a gap or space between the ear and the ear tip.
If there is a gap between the ear tip and the earbud, sound may leak out and the earbuds' performance may be poor. Please make sure that the ear tips and the earbud grooves fit properly, and try to reinsert them so that there is no space between the ear and the ear tip. If you are still having performance issues, please try changing the ear tips to a larger size.
Attach the wingtips on your Galaxy Buds Live
Your Galaxy Buds Live come with small and large wingtips that you can swap out for a more secure fit. You could even use different sizes for each ear.
Select the best fitting pair of wingtips that came in the box with your earbuds.
Check for the L or R marks on the wingtips so you can correctly place them on the left or right earbud.
Hook the wingtip onto the earbud, and then cover the earbud with the wingtip.
Repeat the process for the other earbud.
If your Galaxy Buds Live do not fit comfortably, you can order a pair of Buds Sleeves. Please see the section "Wear your Galaxy Buds Live properly" more information.
