I broke my Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and can get some from Costco for $160. What else should I be considering in that price range? What do you like?

    I know this isn’t what you’re asking, but I’d really recommend buying refurbished earbuds. You can sometimes get them for so much cheaper than the normal price and they work the same. I got refurbished Galaxy Buds2 (not pro or anything) from Best Buy for $60 around a year ago and they work perfectly fine.

    But as you’re coming from the Buds2 Pro, you probably don’t want to downgrade to an older model. But yeah, for whatever you end up getting, buying refurbished from a reputable retailer seems to be the way to go imo.

      That’s always a good recommendation. I’m pretty hard on my gear so I usually buy new to get the most life out of them. My earbuds were pretty worn by the time I washed the case. But I’ve more than one person say refurbished has worked out great.
