For me it’s the notification light you used to find on older phones, was particularly good to know if your phone was charged without picking it up

You can turn off the touch controls on Samsung Galaxy Bud Pros, maybe the other galaxy bud models too

For most of these, turning off touch controls means that when you accidentally trigger the touch commands, it plays a little jingle and pushes a notification telling you that youve disabled touch controls and you need to reenable them.

Completely defeating the fucking point of turning off touch controls, and making me want to wrap my hands around the throat of the idiot who designed that

On my buds if I turn on "block touches" and I touch them nothing happens, no jingle or notification. But yeah that does sound like a stupid feature

I'll look into it. The only bluetooth earbuds I currently have are an off brand called SYNRGY. Maybe there's some setting that I'm not aware of to disable touch controls too. I've also considered applying a few coats of clear nail polish. Maybe that would work?

I actually don't know anyone who has the official Samsung ones.
