Uh oh! Samsung's cheap 'Fan Edition' earbuds just dropped another 45% for Amazon Prime Day

Black Galaxy Buds FE with Purple Galaxy S23 FE

Prime Day earbud deals are here, and among them is a 45% price drop on the already-affordable Samsung Galaxy Buds FE.

While these noise-cancelling earbuds normally retail for about 100 bucks, the current discount brings the price down to just $54. At this price point, it's hard to find many other competitors that even include ANC, let alone those from a brand-name like Samsung, whose products include a range of excellent phones, tablets, and laptops.

Samsung Galaxy Buds FE: $97.99 $54.99 for Amazon Prime Day

Samsung's FE Galaxy Buds are already amongst the company's more affordable earbud picks, but Amazon has recently brought the price down by 41% for Prime Day. Now priced at just $55, the Galaxy Buds FE include key features like ANC, voice assistant compatibility, and automatic switching between media and phone calls.

✅Recommended if: you need a pair of earbuds with active noise cancellation for under $60; you have other devices within the Samsung Galaxy ecosystem; you want earbuds that come with decent quality microphones for phone calls and quick voice assistant access.

❌Skip this deal if: you're looking for premium-level audio quality and high-resolution, lossless streaming in a pair of buds; you prefer earbuds designed with a stalk; you like over-ear headphones more than in-ears.

The Samsung Galaxy Buds FE are certainly an economy-level earbud offering, and while they didn't make our best earbuds list, they still offer many of the qualities modern listeners love.

For one, the inclusion of ANC on a pair of earbuds at such a cheap sticker price is relatively rare. The so-called "Fan Edition" buds also come with built-in voice assistant access, real-time language translation features, and easy-to-use touch controls using the center platform on the earbuds. They also have SmartThings Find mode and Lost Mode for seeing their location on a map and sending a message to those who might find them, making them fairly easy to keep track of.

These earbuds are designed with a wing tip to help them stay in a user's ears more easily, and they also feature three silicone ear tip sizes in the package. While some users prefer a long, stalk earbud design or those that don't utilize an extra silicone ear tip, they look like a pretty decent pick for those who don't, and especially at this low price tag.
