Got a Samsung phone? The Galaxy Buds 4 Pro are the Prime Day deal I highly recommend

I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro every day since they launched, paired to my Galaxy S25, and they’ve quickly become the only earbuds I reach for when heading out the door. So when I saw they’d dropped to $209.99 from $249.99 for Prime Day — the lowest price they’ve ever been — they were the first deal I wanted to write about.

Starting with the stem-style, these earbuds are super comfortable and light, and I can wear them for hours without thinking about them. They look the part, too, with brushed-metal stems and a transparent case lid that I still think is a nice touch. And they sound great: there’s a satisfying amount of bass for everyday listening, and if you want to dial things in, the app’s EQ presets and custom equalizer make it easy. I mostly keep mine on Clear EQ, and it’s exactly the balance I want.

The noise canceling is the other standout. It’s excellent across the board, but what won me over is how well it handles wind — the redesigned vents cut down on that gusty roar you usually get when walking outside, which is the one thing most earbuds struggle with. Add the IP57 rating, and they shrug off sweat and rain at the gym without issue.

Where they really pull ahead is the ecosystem, and this is the part I’d stress: pair them with a recent Galaxy phone, and you basically get the AirPods experience on Android. Everything just connects and works. On a Galaxy S23 or newer, you also unlock higher-resolution wireless audio, a hearing test that tunes the sound to your ears, and Auracast, which lets you tap into a shared audio broadcast at a gym, airport, or bar the same way you’d connect to public Wi-Fi.

If you don’t have a Samsung device, you do miss out on many of those features. But if you’re already in Samsung’s world, this is a no-brainer. $209.99 is the cheapest they’ve ever been, they’re my favorite earbuds I’ve owned, and I’d buy them again today without thinking twice.
