Buy the Galaxy Buds4 if you own a Galaxy phone and hate silicone tips: the open-type fit is comfortable for hours, the sound is warm and pleasant, connectivity with Galaxy devices is seamless, and Galaxy AI features like live translation work out of the box. Skip them if you want real isolation, because the open design lets in noise and the ANC can't fix that.
