The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro slip out of my ears. Any recommendations for earbuds that might fit better? I'm thinking I perhaps need a different shape.

How much do you want to spend?
Are you interested in high-res audio so you can hear every triangle or tambourine on a song?

A couple of hundred, of course less is equally welcome. High quality audio and a good fit are my top concerns. They'll need to be compatible with a Samsung phone and bluetooth but I imagine most earbuds will be.

These Status Audio earbuds are

my current favourites
Sound quality is excellent. I have small ears and they've never fallen out.

They're £92 including import tax.

In fact, I like them so much that I've ordered the noise cancelling model which is supposed to have even more sophisticated sound quality.

Anker are good and very reasonable prices. Block out the noises that my dickhead neighbours make

These are supposed to be the best for noise cancellation, but they are eye-wateringly expensive.

My DD bought a pair of these and I tried them out. Wow, never experienced anything like them. Pricey though.

Interesting! What especially did you like about them?

(Full disclosure - I have a birthday coming up!)

@PoodlesRUs have you tried googling sports or running earbuds ?
I suffer from earbuds falling out and find this shape good
