Samsung In-ear Fit EO-EG920BW

The Samsung EO-EG920BW sounds surprisingly good for a $14 two-pack, landing in the 82nd percentile for audio. But comfort and build are weak, and the fitness score is a joke. Worth it as a cheap backup or call headset, not as a daily driver.

The 12mm dynamic drivers with dual speakers per earpiece do some real work. Sound lands in the 82nd percentile, so you're getting clear highs and decent bass for the price. The 140Ω impedance is a bit odd for a phone earbud, but modern phones handle it fine. Mic quality sits at the 40th percentile, which means calls work but nobody will compliment your voice. Connectivity is wired only, so no latency issues but also no freedom. Battery is a non-factor since there isn't one. Build quality is mediocre at the 34th percentile, and comfort is worse at 28th. These are not buds you'll forget you're wearing.

Stacked against the Soundcore P31i or Anker Space A40, these Samsungs look ancient. The Space A40 gives you ANC, wireless, and way better comfort for not much more money. The Baseus Bass BP1 Pro and TOZO Crystal Pods also crush these on features and build. The Sony WI-C100 is the closest wired-ish competitor with a neckband design, and it's more comfortable and better built. The only place the Samsung wins is raw sound per dollar, and even that's close. If you're buying in 2025, the only reason to grab these is nostalgia or a very tight budget.

At $14 USD for a two-pack, the math is hard to argue with. That's $7 per pair. But you get what you pay for. The sound is genuinely good for the money, but the comfort and build issues mean you might be buying replacements sooner than you'd like. The CAD 40 listing in Canada feels steep for what these are. If you need a cheap wired backup for calls or podcasts, this is fine. If you want something you'll actually enjoy wearing for hours, save up.

The Samsung EO-EG920BW is a blast from the past. It's the wired earbud that used to ship in the box with Galaxy S6 and Note 5 phones, now sold as a two-pack in bulk packaging. You get a 3.5mm jack, inline mic, volume controls, and a call button. That's it. No Bluetooth, no ANC, no charging case.

Sound is actually the one bright spot here. Our database puts it in the 82nd percentile for audio, which is impressive for a budget wired bud. But comfort and build quality are rough, and the fitness score is a disaster. This is a desk drawer backup, not a daily driver.

Skip these if you need earbuds for the gym, running, or anything active. The fit is loose and the fitness score is one of the worst we've seen. Also skip if you want wireless, ANC, or all-day comfort. And if you're in Canada, the CAD 40 price is hard to justify when better wireless options cost about the same.

Buy these if you need a cheap wired headset for calls, Zoom meetings, or as a backup pair in your bag. The sound is better than it has any right to be at this price. But skip them if you plan to wear earbuds for more than an hour at a time, work out, or want anything resembling modern features. These are a time capsule from 2015, for better and worse.
