The Samsung AKG EO-IG955 are the earphones that made people stop throwing away in-box earbuds: tuned by AKG for the Galaxy S8, S9 and S10 era, they punch far above their price with balanced, detailed sound through a standard 3.5mm jack. Hybrid silicone tips seal comfortably, the fabric-braided cable resists tangling, and the inline remote with mic handles calls and volume. At this price, the honest description is simple: the best-value branded earphone in the drawer.
Sound
AKG tuning, flagship pedigree
AKG’s engineers tuned these as the in-box earphone for Samsung’s flagships — balanced mids, controlled bass and a clarity that embarrassed aftermarket pairs costing five times more. That tuning has not aged.
Build
Braided cable, hybrid tips
The fabric-braided cable resists tangles and survives pockets; hybrid silicone ear tips seal gently for comfort and passive noise reduction over long sessions.
Control
Inline remote and microphone
Volume keys, a multi-function button and a clear mic — calls, playback and assistant access without touching the phone. Works over the universal 3.5mm standard.
Right choice if you…
✔ Want remarkable sound for pocket money

Consider something else if…

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these the same earphones that came with the Galaxy S8/S9/S10?
Yes — the EO-IG955 is the AKG-tuned in-box earphone from that era, supplied here as a standalone unit.
Why are they so cheap if they sound this good?
They were produced at in-box scale, which drove the unit cost down — the market price reflects supply, not quality. It is the best-known value anomaly in wired audio.
Will the remote work on non-Samsung phones?
Audio works on anything with a 3.5mm jack. The mic and multi-function button follow the universal standard; volume keys can vary on some non-Samsung devices.
Retail boxed or bulk?
Stock is supplied in Samsung’s standard packaging for this part — the product and tips are identical either way, and every unit is genuine.
