How are Galaxy Buds supposed to fit?

Insert them into your ears with the wingtip facing upwards, until they sit comfortably in your ears. Adjust the earbuds by rotating them to the left or right to fit your ears. If the earbud tips or wingtips do not fit comfortably in your ear, try a different size.

Do Galaxy Buds Live fall out?

The Galaxy Buds Live, when worn correctly, never actually fall out. With the way that the Buds Live are shaped and how they sit and press, it does present a sensation of underconfidence if you are wearing them wrong -- it feels like they will fall out if you move around too much.

Do Samsung Galaxy buds live fit small ears?

While fit is subjective—and apparently my ears are on the small side—the Buds Live are flat-out uncomfortable for me, especially in the long term. The problem, as I see it, is the combination of a fully seated form factor that's also rigid, which leaves little room for error in smaller ears.

Why do Galaxy Buds hurt my ears?

The majority of complaints seemingly come from Galaxy Buds Pro owners, some of which suspect that ear inflammation might be caused by the size of the eartips. They claim that Samsung may have made the eartips too large as a way to improve noise cancellation, but this causes discomfort and excessive sweating.
