According to the product page, the water and dust resistant case cover is also compatible with the Galaxy Buds Pro and the Galaxy Buds Live.

Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 specs

The Galaxy Buds 2 is Samsung’s smallest and lightest wireless earbuds yet, and it costs RM300 cheaper than the Galaxy Buds Pro at the time of launch.

On a single charge, Samsung claims that you can get up to 5 hours of music playback with ANC turned on and you can get up to a total of 20 hours with the charging case included. Without ANC, it can push up to 7 hours of continuous music playback or up to 29 hours with the charging case.
