Our Verdict
Samsung Galaxy Buds
Raycon E100 Truly Wireless
The Samsung Galaxy Buds are better headphones than the Raycon E100 Truly Wireless, especially if you have an Android phone, giving you access to their app. The Samsung are noticeably smaller and more comfortable, on top of having a better audio reproduction. They have a touch-sensitive control scheme, rather than physical buttons like the E100. They also have a better battery performance. On the other hand, the E100 have a better isolating fit which is good for blocking out noise and they come with more tip options.
