Our Verdict
Samsung Galaxy Buds2
Jabra Elite 7 Pro True Wireless
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro True Wireless and the Samsung Galaxy Βuds2 Truly Wireless. The Jabra have a much better mic performance, a longer continuous battery life, a more comprehensive control scheme, and a more neutral default sound profile, which some may prefer. Their app has a graphic EQ for sound customization, and they're rated IP57 for dust and water resistance, while the Samsung only have an IPX2 rating for water resistance. On the other hand, the Samsung's ANC feature blocks out much more noise.
