The new Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus won't come with the noise cancellation according to a report by SamMobile, suggesting that the second-gen true wireless earbuds won't be as big an upgrade as we were hoping for.
Like everything else in your computer, Bluetooth requires both hardware and software. If your PC didn't come with the Bluetooth hardware installed, you can easily add it by purchasing a Bluetooth USB dongle. To determine whether your PC has Bluetooth hardware, check the Device Manager for Bluetooth Radio.
Like many wireless headphones these days, the Galaxy Buds have an Ambient Sound mode that will pipe in audio from the world around you. The Galaxy Buds sense this automatically and switch from the microphone on the outside to that mic on the inside.
Galaxy Buds do work with an iPhone, but the wireless Bluetooth earbuds pair quicker with a Samsung Galaxy phone. It's still easy to pair Galaxy Buds with your iPhone — you'll simply connect to them via Bluetooth as you would with any other Bluetooth headphones.
With the Galaxy Buds, you can only stream music from the connected device like a phone, tablet, or watch. However, the Gear IconX earbuds have enough internal memory to store up to approximately 1,000 music files (about 4GB).

Turn on Bluetooth on your PC if it's not on already. To do this, select the Start button, then select Settings > Devices > Bluetooth & other devices and turn on Bluetooth. Select Add Bluetooth or other device > Bluetooth. Choose the device and follow additional instructions if they appear, then select Done.
Unlike the IconX, the Galaxy Buds charging case supports wireless charging, which is a nice little addition. Although the Galaxy Buds will work with any smartphone running Android 5.0 or newer as well as recent iPhone models, you'll get the best possible experience using them with a Samsung device.

Bluetooth device can't locate your Galaxy Buds
Turn off the charging case again and turn it on to enter Bluetooth pairing mode. Make sure your earbuds and other Bluetooth devices are within range of the Bluetooth connection (10 m). The distance may vary depending on the environment in which the device is used.I've combed all the manuals and threads I could find with no info on this. To actually answer your question swipe down the notification shade then touch the line that shows audio out (possibly says galaxy buds I dont remember) then it will show a blue slider. Click on that and it will "slide" to gray and they turn off.

The Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus were supposed to support multipoint between Bluetooth 5.0 devices. However, the company discreetly removed any mention of this functionality on the official Galaxy Buds Plus page. No matter, the Buds Plus remember multiple devices which makes switching easy.
You don't have to use both earbuds
If you want to extend the battery life of the Galaxy Buds, one option is to only use one earbud at a time, leaving the other one in the charging case.Although you can use the Galaxy Buds on their own, paring them with the free (Android, iOS) Galaxy Wearable app unlocks a lot more functionality. The app lets you monitor the buds' battery life and connection status, configure touchpad options, and update firmware.
In the case of simple multipoint, a Bluetooth headset is connected to two separate devices at the same time. So when you answer the call, the headset will automatically stream it from the right device. If you're already talking on your first phone, the headset will alert you if there's an incoming call on a second one.
Connect Multiple Bluetooth Speakers Using Samsung's Dual Audio Feature
- Go to Settings > Connections > Bluetooth.
- In Android Pie, tap Advanced.
- Turn on the Dual Audio toggle switch.
- To use Dual Audio, pair the phone with two speakers, two headphones, or one of each, and audio will stream to both.
To pair Galaxy Buds with a Galaxy S10, just open the charging case near your phone and tap "Connect" on your phone's screen. If you have a problem pairing the Buds — or you want to pair other brands of Bluetooth headphones — you can do that from the Bluetooth page in the Settings app.
