Fixed Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro battery draining too fast
There are several reasons why the Galaxy Buds 2 pro battery drains too fast. But you need to know the exact one to count on longer battery backup.
So, I have shared some fixes and tips below and following them will surely help you to use your headphones for a longer period of time.
Reduce battery consumption
The first thing you need to do to stop draining your battery too quickly is to reduce consumption. Here are some tips you should follow to reduce it:
- When you are not using them, place them in the charging case to charge them. If not, it will continue to consume the battery.
- You can also restrict notifications using the Galaxy wearable app on a Samsung device or the Galaxy Buds app on an iPhone. The lights will not be active so they use less power. You should also be aware that the Galaxy Buds 2 does not work with the Galaxy Buds app, so you can connect it using Bluetooth.
Charge your headphones and case properly
If you use the headphones frequently, they will need to be recharged and you can easily place them in the charging case. But you also make sure that the charging case is also charged.
You will see an LED indicator and a green light on the charging case; green pops up when it’s charging. And when it’s solid, it’s fully charged.
If you are a new headphone user, here are the steps you need to know:
- First you need to open the cover of the charging case.
- Then put the earphones into this case.
- The earbuds will start charging together.
- Now plug the charging cable into its USB port.
- Then connect the cable to a power source.
If you have run out of battery, it will take about 30 minutes to fully charge.
You can also check the charging status, but this process depends on your device.
For Android:
You can check the charging status at the top of the home button in the Galaxy Wearable app. Install it on your device if you haven’t downloaded it yet.
For iOS:
You need to connect to iOS with headphones, and then you can check the charging status on the headphones app. But remember that Galaxy Buds, Galaxy Buds Pro, Galaxy Buds2 and Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are not compatible with the Buds app, so you can’t check the battery level.
Other than that, both the earbuds and the charging case have a light detector that shows some messages, and knowing the meaning will help you know the status.
Headphones:
- Red: Headphones are charging.
- Green: Headphones are fully charged.
- Flashing red: Charging stopped, there may be an error in the charging process.
Charging case:
- Red: Either charging or the battery level is below 30%.
- Flashing Red: Battery level is below 10%
- Green: Fully charged or above 60%
- Yellow: The battery level is between 30% and 60%.
- Blue: update
Clean the case charging terminal
It is also possible that dirt has accumulated in the charging terminal of the case, which prevents it from charging properly. Therefore, your earphones will not be fully charged, which will drain the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro battery too quickly.
In this case, use a soft dry cloth, check for dirt and clean thoroughly.
Reset headphones
Another thing you can do is to reset your headphones, and to do so, follow these steps:
- First, place the earbuds in the charging case for 15-20 seconds and put them back into your ears again.
- You then need to turn off Bluetooth on the connected device for about 20 seconds and then turn it back on.
- Now open the Galaxy Wearable app.
- Then go to the “About headphones”section.
- Finally, click Reset Headphones.
Contact Samsung Support
If you are still not getting results after doing the above fixes, then you would be better off contacting Samsung Support so that a professional can check the problem and fix it.
You can file a complaint using the website or use it to find your nearest service center.
