Galaxy Buds Live Teardown: The Most Repairable Earbuds Yet?

Our Galaxy Beans giveaway has ended. Congrats to our winner, @CheapAsTech on Twitter! He guessed 720, the exact number of beans in our jar! Samsung’s new Galaxy Buds Live (AKA Galaxy Beans) are the newest buds on the block, featuring a new open sound design, active noise cancellation, and up to 6 hours of battery life. Previous Galaxy Buds have been among the most repairable we’ve seen, so we’re curious to see what compromises their engineers may have had to make to bring this new form factor to life. Hopefully these things aren’t just full of glue. Our Pro Tech Toolkit came in handy! We have batteries for the original Samsung Galaxy Buds!
