I have them, while they do sound great when listening to music, the call quality during phone conversation is horrible, sounds either muffled or not clear according to the other end. seems to be known issue among many customers.
I own these, got them with my Samsung S20 Ultra. I sold my Airpods to use and haven't looked back. Fully customizable and the sound is absolutely amazing for any style of music and isn't muffled like Airpods when watching Hulu or Netflix. It's worth the price.
Slick deals, i love your site but I'm pretty sure I'm not the first one who's about to get divorce cause of you. I have the Jabra Elite 75t, just bought Airpods pro from Vip outlet deal yesterday and now this. Oy
I received my pair 'free' with my phone. I've never had wireless earbuds before, but I've not been all that impressed. For music, sound lacks a fullness and does not have much bass. I don't value them at $70. Although, it just may be the nature of wireless buds.
This is a great price for one of the premium true wireless earbuds out there. Until the new version comes out (very soon I believe), this one is still the latest and greatest offered by Samsung. I don't think the new ones will be much better either and I'm sure the biggest difference will be ANC, which will make them comparable to the Airpods Pro. The price for the new ones will undoubtedly be a lot higher than $69. I think Woot, owned by Amazon, is a reputable merchant offering a 30-day return and 90-day warranty policy. I'm still happy with my Jabra Elite 65T, otherwise I'll be all over this deal. Thanks OP anyway for posting.
Is this better than the Anker that are routinely on Slickdeals?
If you're referring to the anker soundcore liberty neo, can share some experience as a current owner of them but a prior owner of the galaxy buds 1st gen (lost these somewhere). Can say with certainty that the galaxy buds are better in almost regard except waterproof rating (galaxy buds plus ipx2, anker liberty neo ipx7).
Why I bought this deal:
-battery life (11.5 hrs): this battery life is one of the best available that I'm aware and the liberty neo at 4.5 hrs doesn't get me halfway through a day of work
-touch controls: the physical buttons on the liberty neo is a minor discomfort that has resulted in me personally just using the buttons a lot less than when I had the galaxy buds
-wireless/usb-c case charging: liberty neo case doesn't have qi-charging and is a micro-usb cable... not having to have a micro-usb cable around will be refreshing
-auto off when not in use: anker keeps playing when the buds are taken out of your ears, further drain on minimal battery life
-seamless switch between using the L/R earpieces stand-alone: anker takes some work to switch between the ear pieces
This all being said, I still think the liberty neo offers tremendous value at the ~$30 price point and will keep them around for the gym, whenever that eventually happens again...

That's all. But keep in mind warranty is important here because Samsung is crap. My left bud stopped charging within a week.
I've had 2 pairs of galaxy buds since launch day as well as one pair of the + and never had an issue...

Do we know if you can actually get them tommorow or will they have a preorder?
