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. While the design looks similar to the Pro model, the Buds 2 features a woofer and tweeter, and weighs 5g for each side. Also included are two outer beamforming mics and an inner mic and voice pickup unit for better hands-free voice calls.

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.
