I’ve gone through way too many budget wireless earbuds. Most of them sound awful, die after a few months, or refuse to stay in my ears. So when I saw Woot (which is run by Amazon, by the way) drop Samsung Galaxy Buds FE to just $49.99, I figured I’d give them a shot. It turns out they’re actually pretty solid.

First, they fit way better than I expected. Samsung’s new wing-tip design keeps them locked in place, which is a must for anyone whose earbuds randomly fall out mid-walk. They’re also surprisingly comfortable for long listening sessions, which I wasn’t expecting at this price point.

The sound quality is great for the price, with a balanced mix of bass and clarity. They even have Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), which, while not on par with Galaxy Buds 2 Pro or AirPods Pro, still does a decent job at blocking background noise. If you need to hear what’s happening around you, Ambient Mode lets in outside sound without taking the earbuds out.

Samsung also includes Auto Switch, so they’ll automatically hop between your Galaxy phone, tablet, or laptop without needing to be manually connected. If you lose them, SmartThings Find can track them down, which is a lifesaver for anyone who constantly misplaces their tech.

At full price, these were a tough sell over more premium options, but for $49.99 at Woot, they’re an absolute steal. Prime members even get free shipping, so there’s no extra cost. If you need cheap but reliable wireless earbuds, now’s the time to grab them.
