Great price, almost same as Samsung EPP.

Experience the best of your world and the world around you. Galaxy Buds Pro deliver immersive sound with intelligent Active Noise Cancelling, so you can effortlessly control what you want to hear.
CamelCamelCamel.
I purchased from EPP for Christmas, they're a great fit, but this is very subjective, they come with a few replacement tip sizes in the box.
do you have any opinion regarding this vs the sony WF-1000XM4?
Very poor for my ears. If I don't move, chew talk or sweat they are OK.

Galaxy buds pro silver INTERNATIONAL MODEL @ $167.99
which country do their international models typically come from?
I already asked them but haven't heard back.
Can easily get it on Facebook or Ebay for around $160 for local stock.
Mostly from promotional stock people who preordered phone.
Grey import. You won't be able to register warranty with Samsung Australia.

"complete scam company that sends you international import items for barely cheaper than aus model with no aus warranty and lies about it in their product listing"
Grey imports are available for cheaper on Kogan.

These have also been linked to causing bad ear infections. I received a pair with my Fold 3 and had really bad infections.
yeah there's been quite a few articles addressing this issue as well.
Shame that these are plagued with poor fit and hygiene
depends if you've nickel allergy. won't know until you try em on or get a patch test done by your gp beforehand. annoying choice of material though.. personally waiting on buds pro 2 coming mid 2022. hopefully they removed the metal.
Everytime I've posted this on a Galaxy Buds Pro deal, I've been downvoted with no explanation. I've used IEMs for well over a decade and have never come across such widespread reports of ear infections on any other IEM - its well worth considering and personally made me steer clear of the set and choose the Galaxy Buds Plus instead.
Maybe mention the reason - nickel allergy(according to the other comment). It's a bit more useful than something that implies you have unclean ears.
Didn't have the specific cause at the time of posting previously - but did have plenty of reports of infected ears, including class action law suits, which I did link to.
Have a pair of these and no ear infections. It also fits in my ears quite well with the medium tips. Just remember that there will always be more negative reviews online since if it works, why on earth would you make a post saying its good?
Got these (second hand too for 120!)
Cleaned them well. Have been using them and no issues at all. Amazing buds. Balanced sound, mids, bass, highs all are well presented.
I bought the Black Galaxy Bud Pros through Amazon AU sold by Samsung back on the 18th Dec for $169.
Didn't get time to put a post up. Sorry guys.
Regarding the fit though, I always found the original Galaxy Buds and Galaxy Buds Plus to be a really good snug fit for my ears and generally comfortable. These Pros though don't fit anywhere near as well. They have a lumpy section on the part that sits against your ear whereas the previous buds had a more scolloped out section making them fit way better.
They have better sound than the previous versions but not enough to warrant the poorer fit.
Just my 2 cents worth.
how good is the ANC?
PS: Dropped to $179 Delivered from the same store.
Could anyone comment on the fit ? These are rated as the best sounding true wireless but there are so many reviews saying that the fit is terrible…
