The fitting is good but you can't have a normal conversation without so much background noise. The person you're talking to hears everything in the background especially when you're driving.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds FE, Joe. It’s great to hear that you find them comfortable, but we understand how frustrating background noise can be, especially when making calls on the go. To enhance call clarity, you might need to try a few things. First, check the Ambient Sound and Noise Controls in the Galaxy Wearable app, as enabling Ambient Sound can sometimes amplify background noise. Second, make sure your earbuds are clean and properly positioned since any blockages can affect microphone performance. Lastly, consider doing a quick reset by placing the earbuds back in the case, waiting a few seconds, and then reconnecting them; this can often help improve sound quality. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us enhance the user experience. Let us know if these steps help or if there's anything else we can assist you with! For any further questions or concerns, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin

Sound is great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy Buds FE are a solid budget earbud option that nails the essentials. Comfort-wise, they're surprisingly good. The ergonomic design and wingtips keep them snug, even during workouts, and they're light enough for long listening sessions.
Sound quality is decent for the price. The 12mm drivers deliver balanced audio, good enough for your daily playlists and streaming. They're not audiophile-level, but they get the job done for most genres and are perfect for streaming your favorite shows or music on any app.
The Samsung ecosystem integration is a major plus. Auto-switching between devices is seamless, so you can jump from your phone to your tablet without hassle, making streaming across devices smooth. The Galaxy Wearable app lets you customize settings and find lost buds, which is super helpful.
"Now Brief" reads out your notifications, which is handy when you're busy or on the move. It gives you the gist without needing to check your phone. "Audio Eraser" is a cool feature that tries to remove background noise from recordings, which can be useful for voice notes or videos, even if it’s not perfect.
These earbuds are super easy to use with streaming apps. Playback, pausing, and volume control work flawlessly. Battery life is solid, and they stay connected reliably. If you’re looking for a comfortable, reliable, and affordable pair of earbuds for everyday use and streaming, the Galaxy Buds FE are a solid pick.

These buds are great for the p But they along term

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These buds sound great, have good noise canceling, good battery life, and ambient mode. So why only 3 stars? That's because even after cleaning these buds. They aren't going to hold up long term. One of them are so quiet now I can't hear them. I try to clean them, but it can only do so much, the mesh needs to be smaller so less gets in.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with the Galaxy Buds FE! We're thrilled to see that you're enjoying their sound quality, noise cancellation, battery life, and ambient mode. We noted your concern about one earbud being quieter than the other, as consistent performance is essential. Sometimes, debris can accumulate in the mesh, affecting audio quality. To maintain optimal performance, we recommend regularly cleaning the earbuds. Start by carefully removing the earbud tip from around the speaker, then clean the earbud tip and the mesh covering using a cotton swab and a dry brush. Wipe the inside of the earbud tip with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust, earwax, or oil. It's important to avoid using liquids such as alcohol or soapy water, as these can damage the earbuds. Additionally, clean the charging contacts and sensors on both earbuds and in the charging case. By following these steps, you can help ensure your earbuds continue to perform their best. For more detailed instructions on cleaning and maintaining your Galaxy Buds, please check out the link attached. We appreciate your feedback about the mesh size. If you have any further concerns or questions, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin

They are ok, compared to my Buds2Pro. The fit is bad. Regardless of which pieces I use, they just don't fit well. My Buds2Pro fit like a glove. Even if I wear them under a beanie or bandana. These FE are to bulbous. They stick out too much. And they also let in a lot of noise.
As a backup, they're good. But definitely not for every day use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great buds for the price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Use these for mobile gaming, watching TV, or listening to music while on a lobster. Audio quality is great connects to my Samsung phone seamlessly. The customization of the audio is nice. 4 stars because I wish it had wireless charging like my phone but it is what it is. Still a great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Buds FE are seriously impressive for the price. The sound quality is rich and well-balanced, whether I’m listening to music, watching videos, or taking calls. The Audio Eraser feature is a game-changer—it cleans up background noise so my voice comes through crystal clear. They fit comfortably and stay in place, even during workouts. The battery life is solid, and the seamless connection with my Galaxy devices makes switching between them effortless. If you want great sound, comfort, and smart features without breaking the bank, these are a no-brainer!
