Samsung - Galaxy Buds3 Pro

I personally use Samsung's Buds 3 Pro, and quite honestly, it has good noise suppression, and the other person hears you clearly, although it might be a little over budget.

For any Android: Oneplus Buds Pro 3 For Samsung: Galaxy Buds3 Pro For iOS: Airpods Pro 2nd Gen

This^ I just went down this rabbit hole and everyone's opinions online varied wildly from my own in person experiences. I ended up keeping Galaxy Buds 3 Pro (pixel phone). I tried Pixel Buds Pro 2, JBL Tour Pro 3, OnePlus Buds Pro 3, and Nothing Pro (2024).

Buds Pro 3 are elite

I use the Buds 3 Pro but really miss my FEs. I wont switch back, just miss em.

Okay, something is either wrong with the pair you received, or they are not fitting/sealing in your ears properly. I've got the Buds3 Pro and the ANC is great. They also sound great.

samsung galaxy buds 3 pro have great transparency mode and AC when theres a lot of wind. sound quality is top tier for the buds category

Get the Galaxy Buds Pro 3. Rips off the AirPod stalk bud aesthetic but with better overall sound and a lot of features if you have a Samsung phone. And often on sale for \~ $190 US. If you get them order separate ear inserts as the stock ones from Samsung stink.

My family has both and they are really different beasts. My wife uses the XM6 to listen to music, videos around the house. I don't think she'd be that comfortable carrying them with her everywhere although my college students do that. I have the Buds 3 Pro and they are a great set of buds. Fantastic microphones for calls, excellent sound for buds and very portable. They don't sound as good as a full set of headphones and the ANC isn't close to what the Sony is. So if you value portability in a very good sounding bud get the Samsung. If you don't mind carrying a full headphone around and value ANC get the Sony. To me the prices are immaterial as they are fundamentally designed for different purposes.

I don't think so. For me the biggest reason to spend a lot of money on audio equipment is sound quality, but there is a big upper limit to how good earbuds can sound. The galaxy buds3 pro I have are more premium and have good sound quality (but not the best), but they pail in comparison to what I got out of some cheap $70 CAD chinese wired IEM's. I would say, pick the features that are most valuable to you like ANC, ambient mode, battery life, comfort and fit, Bluetooth connectivity and app features, good enough sound quality for your taste, and go from there. When you get past the price point of the airpods pro 2, you're paying a lot more for very little, and sometimes key features are worse.

Mine the same... is it defect? Should I return it

So it's normal then?

I got mine high pitched song don't sound good compared to the buds 2 pro 😒

I just use my Galaxy Buds 3 or 3 pro and they have no noticeable latency. No dongle required and can use them with my phone after.

I got mine from Amazon from the official listing, which includes 2 years of warranty. I bought mine on this listing https://amzn.to/462kBMj

You should buy the buds 3 pro, but the OEM tips won't be good for the gym. You will need some IEM eartips, I used the azla eartips and they are awesome. I bought my galaxy buds 3 pro on Amazon and they are on sale right now, and I also bought the eartips on Amazon. I bought them from these listings Azla eartips: https://amzn.to/4lFIgI0 Buds 3 pro: https://amzn.to/4o51jNu

Soooo you kinda asking for the ultimate hybrid. And they just don't exist. However at the price point you going for you have great options. First if you want in eco system, galaxy buds pro 3 and the easy choice. If you want best sound Sony WF1000XM5 is definitely for audiophiles. If you want something for the gym with good sound, jabra elite8 active gen 2 is the best out there. If you want to spend half those prices and have a great daily driver I'd recommend checking out the nothing ear gen 2.

Buds 3 Pro, the bass and sound quality are firee

Honestly buds 3 pro is quite good especially when on dynamic mode for the EQ using the Samsung app.. it almost matches my sony xm5 headphones..

I just upgraded from those to the 3 pros and if you got the money or a trade in I'd definitely go for the newer ones, the buds pro 2 were my daily for a couple years and they're good but would fall out of my ears pretty easily while at work.

I've owned the AZ80s and the buds3 pros and the buds3 are actually quite a lot better. There would have to be a very big improvement in the AZ100s for them to be an upgrade for me personally. Bare in mind people have different shaped ear canals and preferences so you can never truly decide based on someone else's comparison. You've also got to consider the source and whether they tweak the EQ like I do (stock buds3 pro sound is a little muddy and bass heavy)

Yep. The AZ80s are definitely better in my experience. I actually switched those out for the sennheisser MTW4 and just yesterday that got beat by the Samsung buds3 pro (sound wise).

I don’t know much about the Technics, but I have the Galaxy Buds pro and my wife has the AirPods Pro, I also have a pair of the Sony's. I’d say they stack up pretty well. I’m not an audiophile, but I think the sound quality is just as good as the AirPods Pro. The noise canceling also feels comparable. One feature that really stands out on the Galaxy Buds is the pass-through mode. It’s probably the best I’ve used. It almost sounds like you’re not wearing anything at all when it’s on. Where they fall short is the case. It’s honestly frustrating. For some reason the buds are spun from hell you put them in your ear when they're in the case so you have to take it out and turn the bud around then put it in your ear. It feels a bit awkward, though you get used to it. What’s harder to deal with is the charging. The buds don’t always make full contact with the case, so you end up fiddling with them to make sure the light turns on and they’re actually charging. I’ve had moments where one wouldn’t charge at all until I pulled it out, cleaned everything, and shoved it back in. If anything gets stuck deep in the slot where the stem sits, it’s tough to clean. On top of that, the case pops open pretty easily. I’d say it’s the worst case I’ve used, even compared to the older Galaxy Buds Pro. The AirPods Pro case, which this one seems to mimic, has some of the same problems but it still seems better even with a very similar form factor. Personally, I liked the shape and design of the older Galaxy Buds Pro better, but once these are in your ears, they do sound better. One other thing that I've noticed with these is for some reason when I'm using Microsoft teams the microphone doesn't seem to sync properly or it sounds really bad when it does sync this isn't an issue I've had with other earbuds I don't know but the problem is.  Overall if you're just talking about sound qualities or top of the line but they do have those other quality of life issues I mentioned. 

Yeah, it’s definitely a problem, and I’m not the only one who’s had issues with it. Just look at all the charging complaints in this sub. That said, it’s not unusable, but at this price point, you’d expect stellar performance. It works 95% of the time. Personally, I really liked the Galaxy Buds Pro 1 case (except it was super slippery and kept falling out of my pocket; I had to get a silicone cover for it). I’m using these to replace my Sony WF-1000XM5s. I got the Buds for free when I upgraded my phone; otherwise I probably wouldn’t have bought them, but they’ve become my daily headphones. I originally got the Sony ones for the top-tier ANC, and honestly, I think the Buds 3 Pro’s ANC is just as good. The passthrough is actually better, and I like the sound more too (I am using them with my Samsung phone, which Samsung reserves the best audio codacs for property use with their phones so keep that in mind if you have a different device). But the Sony case is definitely better. The touchless button thing also took a little getting use to, you have to learn exactly where to touch it to use the controls, but after you get it down its quick mussel memory. I also upgraded the ear tips to [these](https://www.amazon.com/TrueGrip-Replacement-Enhanced-Superior-Isolation/dp/B0DR3LNLT1/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=X89EZHX7KDP7&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.OdBbGdNiVzcaaLfjJS5r3GJK965WH6_zJnTGH9p_Jqyf6la20b5sU4tu6p5yaduWJOkkr5kwSh98Xiz11p6MfDZSXF-EKsZp1MIrFJ059jiUfrVxAr7-u7MVzhdDu4x2WFxYONGaW6w9pO5sbogKBQhiFvdnTTybDKVLtZC8_86S8g_DAHpmNMUOM2NXT_3-DwPfbabK4xnbYz8SNsgzHSQrFzVmM62daSAz_bUQ39w.wB0VOkqLzCZ42AWAftLNZ6sYa1OJGyrsygAih5aCUQI&dib_tag=se&keywords=comply%2Bear%2Btips%2Bgalaxy%2Bbud%2Bpro&qid=1748527088&sprefix=compl%2Bear%2Btips%2Bgalaxy%2Bbud%2Bpro%2Caps%2C184&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1), I think you get a notable bump in sound quality and a really big bump in ANC if you use foam tips vs the silicone ones.

Galaxy Buds3 Pro are the best earbuds I have used until now.

Using the Galaxy buds 3 pro they've been amazing so far

I tried the Galaxy buds 3 pro. But the poor battery life and sound quality was a letdown. So I got sony whxm5 . So far loving it

I think the XM5s destory the Buds in every single category you've listed. Especially sound quality (since you dont have a Samsung flagship or A73 which supports SSC at 96kHz, while LDAC is widely avaliable) and for gym use, due to the foam eartips that come with the Sonys. I took my Buds3 Pro to the gym once, the left one was slipping like crazy. If you decide on the Buds, foam eartips are a must. For ANC, I'm guessing cause of the different fit, the XM5s for sure have better passive cancelation. And Sony is widely known to have among the best ANC for both headphones & earbuds so you can't go wrong there. My Buds3 are doing a good job tho, I'm not complaining much there. The only thing the Buds3 Pro may be better at is the battery, due to the XM5s age & with the Sonys you'd have to get used to the tapping to control them, so points to Samsung's blade (stem) build. Maybe the fit too, personally I like the Buds fit better. Also, Sony has recently released their new flagship headphones, so I expect them to reveal the WF-1000XM6s anytime soon. Something to keep in mind.

I own them both and the Samsung Buds 3 Pro as well. Soundwise this is never an upgrade. Samsung is way better. I terms of ANC the Bose are slightly better. If you use the Bose with Aptx adaptive Bluetooth codec the sounds improves a bit. The Samsung are soundwise especially performing well when used with their own devices and Samsungs SBC bluetooth codec enabled. Crinical rated the buds 2 as the best TWS available once.

Hey how's it going ? My Buds 3 Pro arrived today, and I noticed something very strange. I activated ANC, however I can hear outside sounds the same way. For example, right now I'm in my room and I can hear my dog ​​barking in the yard. Was I lucky enough to be awarded a defective model?

Hi, everything ok? Well, the Buds 3 Pro definitely doesn't have the best ANC on the market, but nowadays I've gotten used to it and I really like my TWS. So I say it all comes down to getting used to the product.

Yes, level 5. I tested the others but it continued the same way

The ANC really isn't one of the best and leaves something to be desired, but in the end it's all a matter of getting used to the product. Nowadays I got used to my Buds 3 Pro and I really like it

Yes. But just in case, ask a question in the community, maybe you and I will end up being awarded a defective product

I unfortunately had my Galaxy buds 3 pro in my pocket when I jumped in the pool and they are not working anymore. I used many earbuds including the Galaxy buds pro, some soundcore liberties, the Huawei freebuds pro 3, the 1+ pro 2, etc. I found the Freebuds and galaxy buds were the best at cancelling background noise and the people on the other line on my Teams or phone calls said I sound the best with those 2. I found the galaxy buds had the best ambient noise during call and their transparency mode was the best for me ( a bit too much hissing but livable). The ANC was like a 7/10 but I only use ANC on planes so not deal breaker for me. Also I would never use them for the gym because I found they were not the most secure. What would everyone recommend for a primarily call quality in office and noisy environments with good ambiance?

Whatever you do get them from a place with a no questions asked return policy. My right bud lasted 24 hours. Then I saw all the charging issues people have and other issues... I decided these are not for me. They sounded great. The ANC works really well... dang shame the quality of the design is poor. Returned those suckers to Amazon the same day and got refunded.

Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. Excellent all around. Except for the pain in the ass charging.

I've been rocking the Sony WH-XM5s since they launched and absolutely love them. Great battery life, great most cancelling and very good sound quality. I use them daily for work and have travelled. For ear buds, I'm currently using the the Buds 3 Pro. They are alright, I mainly use them when I'm shopping, or around the house to listen to podcasts and watch videos.

I'm using a combination of Sony WH-XM5 and Galaxy buds 3 pro. I use the Sonys while working and traveling because of the great nose cancelling, and I use the Buds 3 Pro when I'm out running errands or exercising.

I feel like the ultra quietcomfort earbuds are barely an improvement over the $150 quietcomforts except in terms of their aesthetics. Maybe they fit better. Galaxy buds 3 pro are around 180 and I think they are as good if not better than the ultra earbuds.

Love using my jbl tour pro 3s with comply tips for the gym. I also have galaxy buds 2 pro, galaxy buds 3 pro and technics az100s and the jbls are my go tos.

Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are the most comfortable form factor I've ever tried. Too bad I couldn't keep a seal for too long. Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are also very comfortable, but a completely different shape.

I'd stretch for the Galaxy Buds 3 Pros, but if they really are too much, the Galaxy Buds 2 Pros are great as well. The B3Ps have voice commands, which are a killer feature that no other buds have from any company. The B2Ps are a different form factor, but still sound almost as good as the B3Ps. I would avoid the Galaxy Buds 3 (not pro) if I were you, since you like EDM and they severely lack on bass compared to the sealed option.

They *are* the top rated earbud. And they're the only ones with voice commands, so they're the only ones for me. It's just a bonus that they're also the best tuned buds on the market.

fuck samsung and their fucking voice commands for locking me into a feature that I'll never be able to live without again. so good

More like you prefer the tuning of the AKGs. Not necessarily wired vs wireless. Get a wireless set with LDAC support and the difference is indistinguishable. But I have both of those and B3Ps blow the AKGs away - not even close.

Depends a bit on you, 90% of my gym is power lifting, so they just need to stay in my ears, not a heavy sweater so have some water protection, but also dust for chalk. For those my top 2 are Sony WF1000XM5 and Bose QC Ultra. Samsung buds 3 pro are my favourites, but unless you are die hard in Samsung eco system I wouldnt get those for gym. If you are a sweater, do more olympic movements, cardio, cross training, def get some with wings or some mechanism to keep them in ear. Personally Bose again, stay in for me and great ANC, but boring sounding. Doesnt matter so much as you wont get how perfect sound is in the gym though. I do see some other good suggestions here like the beats ones, but those are just the ones personally I have tried.

I have AZ80s and Samsung buds 3 pro, the AZ80s use LDAC once enabled in the Technics app and bluetooth settings, if you want audio to be optimal then you need to do that every time in developer options, otherwise it remains adaptive. But its never switched back to AAC for me. Buds 3 pro obviously switch to SBC and then SSC with my S24 uiltra.

Compared AZ80, Samsung Buds 3 Pro, WF1000XM5, Bose QC2 (the newer buds are a slight improvement) and AKG N5 recently, one of the things I did was sit in a cafe with music paused to test ANC, I found the Bose were the best, not my favourite musically, but for ANC they are king. Voices are unpredictable so you want more isolation than ANC although ANC if done well will try to help, it deals more with predictable constant sounds like air conditioning or engines, Bose have a decent seal on the ear, the Sony WF1000XM5 come quite close with foam tips. As a fellow ADHDer, also autistic, plain earplugs or music ones like Loops for example are also decent. You will never get full silence unless you go industrial over ear level protection, but all the above will take a bit off the top of the volume.

Tried all the above minus the Sennhesier and JBL, I have an S24 Ultra. My personal daily driver is the Samsung buds 3 pro, ANC is up there but a bit behind Sony and Bose, if you are on a newer Samsung you get their decent codec, a bunch of features for example I used mine to translate recently was great, they sound alright out of the box but EQ well if you search for some on here, there are some great EQ takes and I find them the most comfortable on that list which is Subjective. These I feel image as well as the AZ100, I honestly prefer them, but at the flagship level of buds the differences are so fine, I would accept general opinion the AZ100 sound better. Bose are king of ANC, but without a dongle you miss out on HD codecs as Samsung dont carry Aptx lossless/adaptive. They sound kinda ok, not the best, but no complaints either. Very comfy for me personally, sit in the ear even power walking down a hill. Great buds just not ones I reach for unless I need the best ANC (AuDHD so it does happen). Being on AAC codec isnt that big a deal, but if you are spending flagship money, losing a big feature doesnt make sense to me. Sony are top of the list from reviewers even this year. They are the absolute all around gods if you dont have an eco system to jump into like Samsung or say Apple. The foam tips are love or hate, I love, many hate, but what they do do, is help with the already decent ANC and make them up there with Bose. They are only comfy if you can deal with foam, if you dont like foam, do not buy them, they lose a lot of ANC with silicon tips. Waste of money in that case. Sound however, they sound great, highly recommend their "find my EQ" feature in the app, its quite interesting to see how you prefer sound, made me realise I quite like a bright sound when I thought I liked more dark or warm. These are the second choice for me regardless of order. Technics AZ100. Best bud I have heard personally up until the premium stuff like Gemini 2 etc. The 100 ANC far better than the 80, its up there now maybe above Samsung a hair, but just under the 2 top dogs Sony and Bose. They are comfy in the ear in fairness, look nice, LDAC supported by Samsung like the Sony buds, app is decent, they EQ well. This is the joint top pick for me as long as you are not sensitive to in ear pressure like me. So of those, my personal rec, Buds 3 pro if Samsung features and aesthetic appeal, AZ100 if not. WF1000XM5 if ANC takes priority more but a balance with good features ONLY if you can use the foam tips, ANC different is minimal at the top. Bose if ANC is the absolute most important to you. The JBL are reviwed really well, so as much as I cant comment, I also dont think you'd miss out on anything with them from the above. Seem to be very similar to the AKG N5 which I do have and adore. Worth also waiting for sales, I got my buds on a heavy discount. Also if you can get from a place you can definitely return, like Amazon, also do that just incase.

Yeah thats the weakness of them sadly, even humming, they have/had a sensitivity feature that was next to useless as any lower sensitivity it just didnt activate for me, high and if I start humming or singing it stops the music, highly annoying! So if you are a hummer or a singer might be worth skipping and just going for physical touch to mute. Only buds out of say a dozen I have tried that beter Sonys talk to listen is Samsungs Buds 3 pro, but I highly do not recommend them on anything but a Samsung device. I tried some others like AKG N5, but they even activated off other people talking or a TV playing. The Sony at least only react to your voice. Even if that voice is sometimes a cough even.

I have the Pixel Buds Pro 2, the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro 3, and the Jabra Elite 10. Of the 3, I think the Jabra Elite's check all the boxes most (call quality, comfort, ANC, multipoint).

I have the galaxy buds 3 pro and they are great

Soundguys reviews are pretty biased, nitpicky and usually miss the forest for the trees. For the price, the Buds3 pro are great. The XM5 has it's pros and cons too. Someone else asked a similar question a couple of days back so just search for that post.

I have both, and while sound and fit is subjective, this is my experience with both: >\-Great sound (I love good bass and clear audio). Both have great sound. But the B3P slightly edges it out for me, including bass. But I've not played around with XM5's equalizer like I have with the B3P, so XM5 might be just as good if I did. It's subjective. >\-Solid noise cancellation for noisy environments. ANC on XM5 is better >\-Comfortable for long use and won’t fall out during workouts. Both are equally comfortable, though the B3P falls out easier for me - but this is subjective. >\-Decent battery life. Both have decent battery life, but XM5 lasted longer for me. >calls B3P is clearer

Buds 3 pro just walking on the sidewalk in that mode are just awful when there's wind blowing, on a bike? No way.

Listening/pass through mode amplifies wind noise in a very unpleasant way, and it's far more annoying than actual wind noise.

So because I recently lost my Soundcore charging case and had some other issues with them, I got the Buds 3 pro because the price is now actually affordable. Long story short, pretty mid. Worth the 120€ I got them for but I expected much better given the initial 170€ starting price... The good: Sound quality. They have a really high potential and after fiddling with eq a bit, I managed them to sound better than my Liberty 4 pro did. Out of the box tho they lacked some serious punch and rumble when it was supposed to be there. A bit too flat tuned for my taste. And samsung SSC with UHQ enabled is a solit replacement for LDAC which I used with the Liberty 4 pro. Pairing was as expented also great. It just worked, installed the newest version and everything got explained pretty well. The bad: Transparency mode sounds worse and has alongside with the ANC some noticable whitenoise which already bothers me... ANC itself also isn't much better than the Liberty 4 pro. And the build quality... The Case is ok, although I'm sure the transparent top will age horrible with yellowing, scratched and everything. But the buds.... Oh boy, the stems feel so dirt cheap and hollow, I was shocked when I first took them in my hand. The Liberty 4 pro where mich better there and my old Buds pro 1 without the stem felt much better. I have no idea yet how the battery will do on these but given how my Buds pro 1 held bout 4 hours max with everything ok, I don't expect much here either but even the Soundcore lnly lasted me bout 4 hours before needing to recharge. Overall for 120€ it's ok but they really are nothing special at all. I guess I was a bit too exited for it because the Buds pro 1 have been so great when they released. (Until I lost the charging case for them just like with my Liberty 4 pro LMFAO)

>How do the Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro handle with conversations, street, noise, wind, and can the other person hear you well? Pretty ok. Ouside noise is fine but stronger wind just makes it impossible for the other person to understand you. Singt wind is fine though. Not bad, but not at the top either. >Is the in-ear comfort similar? Is the weight similar? The SGB3Pro are lightweight and very comfortable. The Liberty are a bit heavier than the Buds but still light. Whit fit it personal, for me it was great. Good seal, nothing pressed against the ear while long usage and didn't fall out, not even when working out. But for my ears, the Buds actually feel a bit better. But still both are good. >Do the SL4Pro have similar gesture controls, pinch controls? Maybe they also have voice control? Badically the same. Swipe up, down, tap geastures for skip, back play pause ANC and whatever else there is. Same same. >(I don't really like strong bass), If the Buds alr have too much bass for you then I gotta warn you that the Liberty sound alot warmer and have even more bass from factory tuning. EQ clears but just wanted you to know that. >And a minor problem, poorly designed, you have to rotate them when placing them in the case, and they're slippery, so they can easily fall out. Agree 100% already ALMOST dropped them day one because of that...

Lmao yk what, I'm gonna return them while I still can. No idea what I'll choose instead for now but I ain't staying on the Buds 3pro. The orientation when putting them in the Case is annoying, the stem this specific stem design just sucks for usability too, missing multipoint is a bigger deal for me than I thought and the nuild quality is just awfull. (Speaking of the gaps in the headphones). The only reason why I really liked the samsung buds before was the IPX7 rating. Took my original Buds pro in the shower all the time and nothing happend but guess what. Took a shower rn, and suddenly the right earbud started screaming with like 17khz or whatever. But it def hurt my ear... Even if the sound is great now after some EQ, in every other way it's just a worse Airpods ripoff that stands out in nothing. It's be interesting to see even they even replace it now in case they figure it out it technically has water damage now but ofc I ain't gonna tell them. Heck, what else is the superior IP rating for when it just does nothing because the build quality is temu like level....

I like how you can control the volume by pinch and sliding up and down the stems. They're very slippery though, that I don't like

The best buds are the ones you can afford. I got the buds3 pro at launch for a steep discount otherwise I wouldn't have gotten them and they're alright. I also have a set of JBL's at 40% off sale at best buy. I like the buds for sound quality and noise cancellation, but the JBLs have amazing bass, but are finicky since they have to be fully locked in your ears otherwise they pause the audio. It can get annoying at times. All buds have their pros and cons. it all depends on what your listening habits are. Check out Flossy Carter's buds reviews. He even reviews them by price range. He's a good dude.

I'm with this guy. I'm quite astonished with OP's post. I have all 3. I like all 3. Az100 are the best earbuds in every category imo. Sound quality, it's not remotely close. To each their own I guess.

So hoping the Pro 3 is better!

And it should work well with the phone too I'm guessing. That's what I want

Mic on these is very good, bordering exceptional. Battery is sufficient but not amazing. They sounds excellent to me. I listen via LDAC on Amazon Music playing ultra HD and HD tracks (Spotify didnt have any real quality so I changed) and my goodness the difference. Multipoint works great but it does turn off LDAC like nearly every premium brand does. I like the app on ear fun better, and whilst the ear fun pro 4 are amazing, for straight up sound quality these are incredible even against upper airpod pro and XM4 to my ears. Fit is good too. Not necessarily doing gymnastics like the Samsung FE can handle, but decent for most normal activities. FWIW i tried the samsung buds 3 pros.. Capsule sounds better by far. I do like the ambient mode though whilst talking and ANC is on.. it just switches over automatically - but the fit for me was horrible. Bad like the Jabra elite 7s.. good for 5 mins then wobbles loose.

I have a cheap pair of Funsound ear buds that I have been wearing everyday for more than 5 years and they still last 6+ hours on a charge and recharge in 30 min in the case. Sadly my $99 Anker Soundcore and $199 Samsung Galaxy buds Pro3 last only a small fraction of that time.

I recently purchased these [**Galaxy Buds**](https://x.com/Buynetic/status/1947691855644098702) and I am beyond impressed! The sound quality is crystal clear with very pleasing bass and balanced sounds. Incredibly good noise cancellation - perfect for concentrating on work or relaxing with music. RECOMENDED :)

It also has to do with ear shape. I have both the buds 2 and 3 pro, the 3 pro fit my ears better, and block out almost all outside noise. The 2 pro are alright, though. I just like my 3 pro more.

Don't buy. Broke in 6 months and warrenty won't cover it. They offered to fix for $177.

Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are currently the *overall* best for my needs. There are certainly many TWS buds out there that could be better than these for someone else. Once I got these dialed in with the Diofit tips the sound is badass. Transparency Mode is so good I've never had buds that sound so nice even with transparency on. And the biggest item - for me - Call Quality blows away anything else I've ever used. The lack of true Multipoint is wild and puts me in a position where I'll happily replace these *only if* something else can do just as good for phone calls - and I think that will be tough to find. Other buds I've used that I still highly recommend: - Soundcore Liberty 4 (not the NC and not the Pro) - fantastic overall option. Great battery life, Multipoint, great phone call quality - Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro - especially now with renewed/refurbished options for ~$99 these are an absolute winner in my opinion. No Multipoint, sadly. Great fit, great sound, and pretty good for calls. - OnePlus Buds Pro 3 - really nice package. Great sound, great battery life, Multipoint, and very good call quality. Odd quirk that the wireless charging is on the front, so you have to flip them over for it to work. Haven't tested yet but very interested to: Sony Linkbuds Fit - they have many of the same components as the XM5, have the no-stem look that I prefer, include true Multipoint, should have good call quality, but so frustrating that there is no wireless charging!

Even with all the controversy around the quality of the first batches -- the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are *insane* for call quality specifically. I've owned and tested a lot of earbuds over the years. I've never seen anything like this and I'm not sure how it works so well. I was at a bar last night for a beer - music was blasting from a speaker up and to the right of me. A client called and with just one earbud in my ear (right) I spoke to them about what we were coordinating and after about 5 minutes we ended the call. They never once said "I'm sorry, I can't hear you" or anything like that.

The 2s have better ANC in that they don't "pop" with sudden, loud noises. The 3s have better quality ANC in that they block sound slightly, but noticeably better.

I think they are one of the best in the market right now. They are in the top tier at everything except the mic quality for phone calls. They are Comfortable, if you get the Azla ear tips on Amazon, they get even better. Great transparency mode, not the best ANC, but it’s still very good. Great controls, and the sound quality is one of the best right now.

I LOOOVE my Samsung Bud 3 Pros. Very comparable to Airpod Pros!

I recently acquired the Samsung earbuds pro 3, I like the smaller shape, and it very close to what I was using the air pods pro 2, and works better with my phone than the pros did.

Not when the tozo crystal pods are only 19.99 and smoke most a the earbuds out there for sound and features that cost upwards of 300 dollars.... I say this while owning the galaxy buds 2 and 3 pro, sennheiser momentum 3 , and soundcore liberty 4 pro

Buds 3 pro. They do stay in my ears exceptionally well. However if you love bass or loud volume...i definitely dont think these are the best pick. The noise cancelation works pretty well. I hear from others apple has better. I turn on ALL the features buds 3 pro have from high def audio etc. It really affects the tiny stems battery life. You have to do this to get a louder volume which i prefer with my music but i dont need the volume super loud for duolingo or phone calls... i just lind of rely on the noise canceling (which i really love). Call merequest unappreciative but I want buds 4pro to come out with a better ear seal, even stronger noise cancelation, and even louder sound with better battery life using all those features. Im certain the shape would have to change to accommodate all that. I already plan to immediately trade buds 3 pro for buds 4 pro as soon as they release. Anyway i had some JBL buds which i lived the volume and the bass. For $50 on sale they could not be beat. The noise cancelation was worthless though. Apple doesn't count bc ur on Samsung but a lot of people swear by them. I think top contender outside JBLs very best set for me would be the Sony's flagship ear buds which i have not used.... but the reviews are incredible for. I just dont want to spend another $200+ to try them. That would be because for $200 to $500 I can buy some audiophile headphones to use at my PC and also to play guitar with. Sony- the exceptional sound quality, comfort, and long battery life of the WF1000XM5 earbuds. They appreciate the improved noise cancellation and sleek design. However, some users express concerns about the high price, occasional connectivity issues, and the durability of the ear tip Beats FIT PRO - Customers find these earbuds to be exceptional, better than AirPods, with great sound quality and noise cancellation. The fit and functionality receive mixed feedback  It seems that people like the bass in these are lot so honestly if I were u Id research sonys WF1000XM5 & Beats Fit Pro (works with apple amd android but has an apple chip inside) My personal right now id probably do air pods or Beats fit pro or we 1000xm5. But i cant buy all 3 so maybe you tube? Im super curious on buds 4 pro from Samsung though.

Yeah, it's amazing how well they work. I didn't know how people could actually wear their Airpods all the time until I had a brief flirtation with the iPhone and tried them. Now that I'm back on Android, I've been trying to recreate the magic and haven't had much luck. So far my favorite earbuds are the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. They're comfortable, sound decent, and have reasonable anc and passthrough.

I brought my pair from Tata Cliq almost 4 months before @11900/- with 5% cashback you can totally go for it.

Buds pro 3 are great for me, nice fit, great sound!

Sounds really good , anc is amazing but facing lot of connectivity issues , it disconnects very frequently, will be returning back and get Samsung buds 3 pro

I have Pro 2 and Pro 3. 2 seems better for the gym, the 3 seems to jiggle loose on the treadmill, I keep having to re-seat them whilst running. The 2's seemed to stay put a bit better.

A few months ago, I tested out a bunch of noise cancelling earbuds, so here are a few I have experience with: - Jabra Elite 10: to my ears these have the best ANC with the lowest noise floor and they're pretty comfortable, however they fall out relatively easily, but it's not that bad either. Jabra also stopped their earbuds division so it won't get new updates anymore. These are the ones I ended up keeping and using the most. - Airpods Pro 2: great noise cancelling and audio quality imo but bad compability (need to borrow an iPhone to enable ANC off otherwise you can only switch between hearthrough and ANC). I kept these too, but use them less than the Jabras. - Galaxy Buds 3 Pro: best for compability with Samsung obviously. However, mine had some sort of whistling/ringing noise with some sounds, like my rubbing against clothing or hair, which I found annoying. ANC was good but not as good at the other two. - Sony WF-1000XM5: great passive noise isolation but very lackluster ANC in my opinion. I really don't get why people are so enthusiastic about it because I could barely hear any difference between ANC on or off. They did fit great in my ears though, and it seems like a lot of people do think the noise cancelling is great, so it might still be worth a try. - Bose QC Ultra: personally I returned these immediately because they have an awful noise floor; unless you're in a pretty loud envirenment you constantly hear white noise and can't even turn off ANC. Idk about the ANC itself anymore because this issue bothered me so much.

Wirless! Got Buds3 Pro for most cases, but also have the Sony XM5 for longer trips.

As someone who usually gravitates toward premium tech (Samsung top self everything), I was hesitant to try out budget earbuds, especially at just $60. Stepping down from my $250 Galaxy Buds 3 Pro (GB3P) felt risky, but after seeing so many rave reviews, I decided to give the [Earfun Air Pro 4 ](https://www.amazon.com/EarFun-Canceling-Snapdragon-Bluetooth-Detection/dp/B0D5M9SH1X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2T0D5R282Z4O0&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.iqnOvCwQtQ0Hw-bUaTIlv4sG20dWknsZ0SRTLSDExhfPHta1--0kxcJcx43znTSJZHhKMkdKC0DF1pkxGdF4n53jBrJeNYP3xIW1glTpJskwR9EVN-nbGIhipcb_8tnAPfGS8BEvh_2xpQusNhh5YSfb32TVOeMTcsS1rAqVKbV3jAILSaB6MbmQsOwcPHeRDbxKWVV9p45lSg_ZIJrfesk6Dt-CtPardC2SyPNGO04.UviAHuuZj1cMFN0ni9_30fALsjZhN4RIJOP4mtE2njY&dib_tag=se&keywords=earfun%2Bair%2Bpro%2B4&qid=1728842137&sprefix=earfun%2B%2Caps%2C255&sr=8-1&th=1)a shot—and honestly, I’m floored.  Not just for the price, but overall, they outperform the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. # Sound Quality The Earfun Air Pro 4s get *way* louder than the GB3P—so much so that I had to turn them down at times. They deliver deep, rich bass comparable to the OnePlus Buds Pro 3, which is impressive considering they're a fraction of the cost. Straight out of the box, the sound is solid, but with some EQ tweaks, you can shape them into a true V-shaped sound profile that has bass that hits like a club/concert. The GB3P always left me wanting more bass, but the Earfuns delivered, especially with foam tips for a tighter seal. # ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) With the GB3P, I always struggled with getting a proper seal as we all were with their eartip debacle, which made the ANC underwhelming. In contrast, the Earfun’s fit perfectly with foam tips, eliminating most low-end rumble in my "airplane noise" test (done using my surround sound system). In a simulated café environment, they blocked almost everything except high-pitched sounds. While the GB3P has decent ANC, the Earfun truly shines in this area. # Transparency Mode Samsung's transparency mode is like magic, and while the Earfun isn’t quite there, it’s close. The GB3P would get a 10 in this category, but the Earfun scores a solid 8, offering natural-sounding transparency without feeling artificial. # Microphone Quality Samsung still holds the crown for call quality, but the Earfun Air Pro 4 is right behind. It picks up my voice clearly, projecting it forward even in noisier environments. I tested it with voicemails in different conditions (quiet room, background noise, wind) and was impressed every time. There’s a bit more background noise compared to the GB3P, but for the price, it’s more than acceptable. **Multi-point** Now this is the part that grinds my gears as we all have multiple devices and most of us who are using Samsung or Oneplus are using windows machines.  Samsung took away true multipoint unless its a Samsung device and that sucks because WTF, the os is windows on a Samsung laptop so it should just work with windows..  From my 24 Ultra to my Galaxy tab its smooth, but while I'm at work with my HP machine I have to manually connect it each time and that is not smooth at all as I often have to disconnect my phone then connect the laptop.  Samsung needs to fix this immediately with a software update as again they are trying to be like Apple which is what we don't want.  Again, the Earfuns cost $80 and they are just perfect, smoothly connecting from my phone, tablet, Chromebook and windows laptop with no problem once they are setup.  I go from listening to music on my laptop to having the phone take over when a call comes in and then switches back to the laptop when I hang up.  This is how multi point is supposed to be and if you have multiple devices this is what you want in some headphones/earbuds. Again for the price, this is just crazy. # Build & Design The design of the Earfuns isn’t flashy, but it’s durable. They have a solid build, and I can tell they’re going to last through regular use. # Final Thoughts As a die-hard Samsung Knight who typically only buys flagship products, I’m genuinely surprised by how much I love the **Earfun Air Pro 4**. If you’re open to trying something new (and saving some cash), I highly recommend giving these a shot.

Yes, I have them, see my post posts lol The are absolutely great, it's like a sleeper PC, plain and underwhelming on the outside, amazing on the inside. I had the Samsung buds pro 3, and OnePlus buds pro 3, and Soundcore Liberty pro 4 and the earfun beat them all or was equal, but the price is amazing so I went with them

Very, very hard to beat for the money I had the Galaxy buds pro 3 and the one plus buds pro 3 and Soundcore Liberty 4 pro and sent them all back for the earfun Pound for pound, especially considering price, the best

Very, very hard to beat for the money I had the Galaxy buds pro 3 and the one plus buds pro 3 and Soundcore Liberty 4 pro and sent them all back for the earfun Pound for pound, especially considering price, the best

For that price, look at the Earfun Air pro 4, you wont believe the overall quality you get there. I sent back my Samsun galaxy buds pro 3 for these earfuns and haven't looked back.

Galaxy Buds Pro 3 - a lot of people got these at the same time they got the phone. Honestly, love my Flip6 and I love my Buds Pro 3. I traded in my Flip 3 for the 6 and my Buds OG for the Buds Pro 3

They had issues charging for me. Over a few months they just stopped charging (im guessing the contact point got worn down) and I sent them in to get repaired under warranty. Samsung lied to me and said it had water damage and refused to fix them. They were always in my drawer at work, it would be impossible for water to reach any part of them. Samsung lost a loyal customer that day. Beware of the faulty charging case.

I tried the xm4 and xm5. Sound quality was decent(not spectacular) but the fit was unbearable. Some of the most uncomfortable earbuds I've ever owned. Currently using the Samsung Buds3 pro and they're hands down the best earbuds I've ever owned. I've had a few that might outshine them in one specific area, but when looked at as a complete package the Buds3 Pro beat out everything else.

I use galaxy buds 3 pros and they have shocked me with how well they worn with my Mac and pixel. Pixel makes sense but the Mac process is also flawless, good connection, fast pairing and unpairing

I use one plus buds pro 3 and the galaxy buds pro 3 with a pixel 9. Both are great and both should be considered with your other choices.

Galaxy Buds 3 pro is awesome. 1. Great sound, bass and clarity is good 2. Great integration with samsung 3. Great battery life 4. Comfortable fit 5. Awesome voice commands for volume etc. 6. Very light weight

Yeah, this is my second point in the list 😁

I use pixel buds 2 pro or Galaxy buds 3 pro. For zoom/teams I use an old Corsair gaming headset I had kicking around, just personal preference.

If you do not have a good Noise Isolation, you're never gonna have satisfying Active Noise Cancellation. I can only comment on my experience with wf-1000xm4, but even thought they do not fit perfectly, they are leagues above Galaxy Buds 3 Pro ( I tried them because I got a Galaxy phone ) and they are better overall experience from Sennheiser Momentum 4 that I've tried. As other comment's say, i was boarding on a plane and I wouldn't hear the turbine + wind over low volume music. If they're performances is similar, then there is no way to choose galaxy buds over sonic when they are similarly priced.

I jumped from Soundcore liberty 3 pro then to Ear Fun Pro 2 cuz I lost my l3p right pair then now to samsung galaxy buds 3 pro cuz I have a s24 ultra. I don't like the fit tho compare to my ear fun 2 pro and it's been more than 2 years. I'd return my galaxy buds 3 pro for anything cheaper with almost same features and sound

Currently have them. Never had that problem at all. My biggest issues with them are that they're slippery AF and they don't always slide into the proper place in the charging case.

I have both Pro 3 and XM4, and use the S25U. XM4s are more comfortable and have better noise cancellation. Pro 3s seem better for calls and for turning-off cancellation when detecting \*my\* speech; they may have better battery life, too. I prefer the XM4s.

Depends on the budget. 300 bucks for a pair of Technics AZ100 wouldn't be my go to. Samsung Buds 3/Pro seems decent aswell. Sound signature should be the same as the ones before with AKG (3/pros are without AKG IIRC). AKG has their Hybrid N5/N9 line with a wireless dongle for pc usage. What I don't like, the sound is always superior with the dongle rather than the same as BT etc. For the N9 there is a noticable white noise for ANC (I mean I didn't test them myself it is just hearsay so take it with a grain of salt). JBL released their Tour M3 (over-ear) with extra bucks you get them with the Smart Tx Transmitter for PC usage etc. But the asking price, and according to a reviewer (before release) told the ear cushions are removable is a no-no from me.

While it is difficult for the 3 Pro to exchange the ear tips I would suggest to buy different ear tips either on buds you think are falling out. There are some off-brands ear-hooks to hold Apple Air Pods in the ear. Since the 3/Pro's are also shaped like the Pods maybe it fit, because the hooks are often made out of silicone. You probably have heard from AKG but it was unnoticed. Old wired, and wireless buds from Samsung are made with AKG sound even the Buds 2 I have. But this is just a 'FYI'. All I can say about AKG is, they know what they are doing. For Gym perspective TL;DR cheap would do it anyways, for expensive stuff I would not. Long story: It depends on the headphone, and what your tolerance is. While it is true most of the ANC over-ear headphones aren't recommended to even sweat in them through heat (Sony WHXM3/4/5 for instance), and can void your warranty, but even if over-ears aren't meant for gym I would do it anyways for headphones <50 bucks like the DoQaus (sounded great for the price, but the grey ones had loose buttons that annoyed me – seems to be a colour problem, because the black ones of a friend of mine, didn't have the loose button problem). I had the Bluedio Ufos (price was 150€ first when they came out, and felt down to 50 to 60€ until Bluedio itself discontinued), and I even took them for a run in the rain after I had them a couple of years outside warranty, and they pretty hold up. I should have kept them, because they still worked despite heavy damaged case. Their clamp force wasn't quite good though, still I used them working out most of the time not in laying position. If you actually don't care about outside noise, and need your breathe to stay in rhythm etc. I would actually recommend bone/air conduction headphones like Shokz Open Run, Soundcore Aerofit Pro etc.

It is true that sound quality is subjective everyone is going to give a completely different answer than what you'd hope, so I'm going to try and be as concise and honest as possible. One of my main hobbies is trying and returning earbuds on Amazon, so that I can do my best to help other people find the pair that best suits their needs. It's been close to 200 at this point, I'm sure. So here's an unpopular take, which many may disagree with, and I'm still trying to understand why i seem to be the odd one out. I've tried the status between 3, and the original beteeen pro that I ordered through kickstarter, and I'd put them in the same category as the nuraloop, which i also ordered through kickstarter in 2016. Sadly, the denon perl pro sound pretty much the same to me, which is, dynamic, but completely muddy, and as if a thick theater curtain hides the detail from you in all three pairs. They should all be worth less than 80 dollars for the way they sound, imho. I was very unimpressed. The momentum true wireless 4 have very delicate drivers that are incredibly sensitive to changes in eq, making them distort and crackle on aptx, and I didn't find them to sound that much better than my old galaxy buds 2 Pro, tbh. Similar sound signature. I've tried all of noble Audio's wireless earbuds, and I'd put them in the same category as raycons. Overhyped, oversold, unimpressive sounding, consumer targeted garbage that looks really cool. Sadly, my 20 dollar soundcore a20i sounded miles ahead of the Noble fokus prestige, which are supposed to be the "pinnacle" of true wireless. I don't understand why people like them at all, and I hope their iems sound better. The beoplay ex were very impressive for what they were, but were incredibly uncomfortable due to the plastic seam which held them together. I have yet to try the pi8. The master&dynamic mw08 sport were amazing earbuds, but only after an eq was applied, and then they did the same thing the mtw4 did, crackle and distort due to weak speaker drivers, but they were the best and most realistic I'd ever heard, so maybe put the new mw09 at the top as well? Not sure. The devialet gemini 2 seem to get both positive and negative reviews, so it may be a gamble, haven't heard them myself tbh. Svanar wireless are another I haven't tried, but seem legit. Possibly beyerdynamic's new pair. I would say the mtw4, xm5, az80, and buds 3 pro would probably satisfy most people generally, but I've heard so many earbuds that were impressive and downright atrocious sounding that I'd put those three in the category of "good enough", not something like the prestige category. Comparing those to the beoplay ex would be like comparing caviar to boba, its just not the same. Anyways, at this point I'm rambling and probably not that helpful, sorry. Good luck with your search!

I use the Buds 3 pros and the Beats Studio Pros as my earbuds and headphones. Zero issues.

They are not the loudest earbuds by any means, pretty disappointed to be honest. At max volume they pale in comparison to M&D MW09, Galaxy Buds 3 Pro (or even 2 Pro for that matter), and the Noble Audio FoKus Prestige.

Samsung Buds 3 Pro. Active noise canceling and ambient sounds features. Best purchase I've ever made. I started with the original, and I've upgraded with each new model.

I watched a few YouTube videos to decide for my own needs. I ended up getting the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and actually really like them. They are quite similar to airpods but fit better for me and I love the seamless connectivity. I almost went for the Bose Quiet Comfort as well.

I watched a ton of YouTube videos to decide what was best for my needs! I decided on the Galaxy Buds Pro 3 and I've them. They fit my ears better than my airpods and sound better imo. And they just pair easily which is so nice.

I have both - have the WF-1000XM5 since around launch and the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro were basically free when I upgraded from S24U -> S25U. Re the gym, the WF-1000XM5 are not suitable for running, in my experience. I'm sure you can find posts from people who say they run in them no problem, but the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are so much better for running, or anything with bouncing. The Sony's are heavier and their center of mass is farther outside the ear. The Buds 3 pro center of mass is more in the ear, and it has the q-tip design, so it stays in better for running. Re sound quality, the Sony is much better. The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are "adequate". If you care about what your music sounds like, the Buds 3 Pro are not a great choice. In the gym, sound quality is not my number one concern, so I tolerate the sound quality of the Buds 3 Pro. But I would never ever reach for them to listen to music. FYI, I also have the WH-1000XM5.

The arguably better galaxy buds 3 pro were being sold for $110 not that long ago on woot brand new. I think even now the galaxy buds 3 pro gets sold on sale for $150ish fairly often. Maybe samsung is just trying to sell through their earbuds inventory? I'm not entirely sure what the goal here is, maybe they just had dead stock? (Samsung owns akg, so it looks like they're just selling earbuds for cheap).

Wow that's surprising, my wife and I got them pre-ordered and they have been working great. We use then every day. I use them from 100 to 0 throughout work. Maybe you just got an unlucky pair or maybe we just got 2 lucky pairs.

Buy Samsung galaxy buds 3 pro, these bad boys won't dissapoint. Especially for this ridiculous price...

I have: - JBL Pro Tour 3 - Galaxy Buds3 Pro - Sony XM5 - Galaxy Buds Fe I rarely use the FE with my phone. I mostly wear it when doing cardio on my bike and have my tablet connected because it's the one least likely to fall off when I'm wiping sweat off lol ANC isn't great but for the price, it's fair JBL Pro Tour 3 are probably my favorite overall. They're comfortable(stem design) and have amazing ANC and most impressively an 8 hour battery life. Also I love how gimmicky that case is. I would switch to them fully if I can get them across phone, laptop and tablet easily, but they only do 2 devices at the same time. Sony XM5 have the best ANC, hands down. But I hate the stemless design and they can get uncomfortable wearing them over a long period. About 5-6 hours of battery life. They're okay. I wear them at work when I want a complete shut out from the environment Buds3 Pro are the ones I use the most because they're just the most comfortable. Also they integrate with my Galaxy laptop and tab easily. ANC is fine. The problem of battery life is real though. I am lucky to get 4 hours, and the case needs to be recharged practically after 2 full uses of the buds. So every 2 days. So the thing is, Buds3 Pro are fairly affordable especially when on sale. They have good sound quality and all. The Sony and JBL are more expensive, by a margin. So ultimately it will depend if you can compromise on battery life. Also, sound quality is better on the more expensive headsets, and Bluetooth connection is more consistent but it's not something the average user would find a problem with imo.

Galaxy buds pro 3 is the best pods I’ve ever owned. The audio quality is simply amazing compared to AirPods and their mp3 codec that start to feel old and dated. It’s a breath of fresh air sincerely…

I just got mine today but I’d say they are, feature and sound quality wise etc. but not build quality as has been mentioned. I have the xm5 and technics az80 and to my non audiophile ears they compare well. Edit: 4 days later returning these crappy headphones. Awful screeching in right bud, bad battery life and dropouts.

Had to come back and say they suck. After 4 days I am returning these. Any time I touch or adjust the right earbud I get an ear piercing screech. Only the right ear bud. Sometimes Bluetooth stutters or drops for a few seconds. The battery life sucks. Actually the worst ear buds I've ever tried.... But when not deafening me with their screeching they sounded good. Still going back as the worst buds ever.

I agree with others. I recently returned my shitty mtw4, as well as some crappy galaxy buds 3 pro and landed on the jbl tour pro 3. I looooove them! And also having the az80 I can attest to them being on par with the jbl so the az100 I sure will impress too. Can't go wrong with either.

I use both the buds 2 pro and buds 3 pro. I love the sound on the 3 pro but hate the stem, so I usually use more the buds 2 pro . I miss the buds live, they were the best ever unless you used to sleep on the side lol

I have the Buds Pro 2 and Buds Pro 3. simply great

Im a hardcore audiophile. Curious what you think about the Steel Series Arctis Nova Pro Wireless & the Samsung Buds 3 Pro. I use the Nova pro wireless for gaming and listening to music/gym. Buds 3P are the dailys. Also running the Samsung ZF6 with highest audio settings. Could one say they are basically perfect?🤔 ha I love them🫠

I have baby ears. My 2 year olds ears are literally bigger than mine and the only ear buds I have been able to use is the Samsung buds pro 3. They are so comfy but I can't eat with them in or they do fall out

I'm still using my MacBook because I hate windows. I just am using all Google Web apps that work perfect honestly. Switched to Galaxy buds pro 3 Galaxy Ring and Galaxy watch 7 with my 10 Pro XL works perfectly.

Buds 3 pro. sound pretty good coming from the origninal buds pro.

I'm not an audiophile or anything but, I have the Buds3 pro and they are awesome! No issues what so ever .

I would have disagreed with you since my old pair of buds 3 pro were garbage. After countless chats and visiting Samsung stores and the buds being replaced they actually do sound amazing. Not as good as some of the competition but still would rank them up there.

Well i own Arya as well as samsung buds 3 pro... In terms of sound quality Arya is miles better.. The buds to b honest sounds similar to Kz Zsn pro.

Ugreen with Momentum 4 and Buds 3 pro

I have at home right now: Airpods because I sold my iPhone. Oneplus buds 3 Pro because I bought Oneplus 12. Today I bought Samsung Buds 3 Pro because I bought S24U yesterday. I will sell the Airpods because I don't own anything after 15+ years from Apple and feel right now that there will be nothing more from them. Oneplus 12 I read a lot about on Reddit and YT and it would be a mobile that was the best of all on the market (that's the impression I got) but in my opinion the reality is something else. I sold fairly new Oneplus 12 after 5 days and Oneplus Buds because they felt cheap and sounded bad. I have to say that the Oneplus Buds sounded much better with the S24U but still sold them because the sound I was not happy with. Today I tested and bought the Samsung Buds 3 Pro because they sound great together with the S24U. I have some much more expensive in-ear both closed and open back headphones here at home and can compare a bit, but the Samsung Buds feel solid and sound quite nice.

I got them and the buds 3 pro. I can't tell what sounds better. I think tue integration of samsung is really decent but that shark fin thing is a really nice have. Sound quality is about the same imo.

I just upgraded from my s21 ultra. I'd highly recommend the Galaxy buds 2 pro. I'd even rec the buds 3 pro which I have but they won't offer all the features on the s21. I don't even get all of them only the z fold 6 and z flip 6 do but I get all the features that truly matter to me.

Anc on buds 3 pro is better imo but I've heard some people say they prefer sound on the buds 2 pro. The 3 pro are more v shaped though and may be more up your alley

Yes. Never thought I'd be gushing over TWS earbuds as I always felt they were categorically inferior, but B3P paired with a lossless source is incredible.

Buds pro 3 are lower class than these. Yes I had them, gave to the wife. She doesn't like either.

I'm a huge samsung fan. This was a massive disappointment. Will try buds 4 pro when they come out. Hopefully fix the bulkiness, bad battery life, poor balance and fit.

I really like my Buds 3 Pro and have no regrets getting them. But if you are mostly pairing them to an Apple device, I would recommend the Apple buds over these.

I am pretty have with Samsung's buds3. For noise canceling I would consider the Buds3 Pro though.

I am pretty have with Samsung's buds3. For noise canceling I would consider the Buds3 Pro though.

The pros 3 fit great and sound great, once you start using the voice controls you'll never go back to taking your phone out to skip songs or pause music. The lighting is one feature that I thought was dumb but now I turn the lights on every time I use them lol

Careful with these at the gym or around any loud sounds. They will amplify sudden sounds by 2-3x, which is very damaging to your ears. The sound quality is better than AirPod 2 pros, almost no question. I have both. But everything else on the AirPods is better.

wthell, i was using my buds 3 pro for 5 hours straight on train ride and at the end of trip they still had 20% left

I had the 2 pro and traded that in for 3 pro. The sound difference is massive. Also, the buds 3 fits me better.

Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are the best I've tried for transparency, almost like having nothing in your ears.

Samsung buds pro 3. I absolutely love them compared to my old pixel buds pro.

Definitely in ear. On ear and over ear are gonna contribute to head sweat and stink up quickly. Airpods or Beats fit pro are the go to if you’re on iPhone. If you’re on Android then you have many, many options. Nothing Ear(a) and cmf buds pro 2 are great budget options. Galaxy Buds pro 3 (or 2 if you wanna save a buck) are good also. It really does come down to ear canal size and shape. You just need something with a good fit. Sound quality doesn’t matter too much to me when I’m working out. Buy using Amazon prime and take advantage of their lenient return policy. Just try them in your ears really quick, then box them back up if they aren’t immediately comfortable. Hope some of that helped ✌️🤘

The best (the most versatile) earphone I've tried is Jabra Elite 10, either gen 1 or 2, followed closely by Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. Both of those are better than everything else I've tried, including Sennheiser MTW4, Technics AZ80, OnePlus Buds Pro 2 and some other cheaper earbuds. If you value comfort and ANC more - go for Jabra / sound and transparency - Galaxy Buds 3 Pro.

Buds 3 pro is close to 3x the price of FE. I hardly even use touch gestures, let alone the voice commands if it were there!

I can't wear my buds 3 pro, I have tried multiple tips and none work without causing pain if worn long term or slipping out multiple times. SwItched to the shokz and now use a Sony set for ANC.

I use mine for running and never had issues they go to charging straight out pf my ears

These are actaully my first pair of earbuds and I must say the bar has been set

Samsung buds pro 3's 🤌🤌

yes, but i bought some silicon ear hooks to help them stay in place as the buds 3 pro arent the greatest fit for my ears https://preview.redd.it/ob2vdby4wmif1.png?width=526&format=png&auto=webp&s=5cf686d4bc07b7aee2a1a902f3c39c1f7a9c492a annoying that i gotta remove/reapply them everytime i take or put them back into the case, but they work solid and are comfortable

Got the buds 3 pro and they are pretty good compared to the buds 2 pro.

5 hours is crazy when my buds only last me about 2.5 hours per bud

Buds 3 pro, probably about 5 months. Constantly on pass-through because i need to hear things at my job

Btw that's 2.5 per bud as in before charging. Like i put it my earbud at about 6 10 and it dies about 8 40

Yes lol they're charged when i start. I charge my buds every night so they're at 100% start of every day.

I love my Buds3 Pros. Sounds amazing, ANC is excellent as well as the adaptive mode. Get wireless charging, and basically Samsungs version of find my (buds not case).

Buds 3 pro are great. Have started using them since a month ago. They work great !!

The only things (useful) that you lose if ur not Samsung user is lossless audio and multipoint(I don't use it, for me it's kinda useless). Otherwise, the transparency is better on Samsung, the sound is better on Samsung too, the amount of features you get on Samsung is far more compared to Bose, you get a proper 9-band eq to fully customize the sound, THE CONNECTION ISSUES aren't present on Samsung earbuds (huge turn off on Bose). Tested both irl. I mean, if you really want that best anc on the market, get them. Just be cautious about the possible connection issues that could be present during usage

I have both on s25u Xm5 pro: sound warm and natural with balanced bass, at the gym they are perfect because don't slip away and they have tap controls (not on the stems), better ANC, better battery life, the app has a tons of function but is not very intuitive. Sounds is great of you equalize them on wavelet and they never tired you. Is a premium sound with identity . They have multipoint, game changer for me in some situation. Xm5 con: after a few hours they could be uncomfortable because of the pressure of the memory foam tips, microphone just is ok but nothing special, Buds3pro pro: you could forget to have them on because they are very comfortable, better microphone, vocal controls, they sound very good but with some difference, for me is a cold sound, maybe they lack of personality. When I use the xm5 I feel at home, the buds3 pro are technically excellent but they need equalization if you want a warm and comfortable and balanced sound Buds3pro con: They slip away at the gym, squeeze control are worse than simple tap especially at the gym, they have massive bass but if you want a balanced sounds you have to necessary equalize them with wavelet app. No multipoint, is a shame for this..they want to emulate apple even in the bad things

Epic post. To the point. I just returned some galaxy 3 pros due to discomfort and have been curious about those Bose and Shokz. You should have an affiliate code because you sold me on the Shokz...at least give em a go.

I been running and rotating pairs between px7 s2e , galaxy buds pro 3, sony xm6 and my favorite pi8 . I been really enjoying the pi8 the most because they stay in and they are so light

I have never in my entire life used an earbud that was as horrible fitting as these Returned them and still love my Buds 2 pros

You really think they have the best sound quality? Have you listened to other top tier wireless earbuds like the Denon Perl Pro, Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro and the Sennheiser Momentum 4s? I think they all sound better than the APP2.

hey, nice review. can you update me on how anc and baterylife are? i got a pair at launch after the recall period, tested them for a month but had to return thrm because the anc at the high end was horrible. anc also had a hissing noise and every 60 seconds or so it shrieked for a couple of seconds in an electric staticy kinda way. so yeah, i returned them and got the sony wf1000xm5 and never looked back (they are just amazing, better in all aspects but they are less comfortable and have worse microphones) untill now, when the foam eartips started fraying and probably need replacing in a couple more months. so, tangent aside: do you experience any weirdness with the anc? are they improved in any way now, after half a year since you reviewed them? is the battery better/worse with one ui 7? is there anything else updated/improved? how's the durability in general? thanks for reading this and thanks more if you answer!

just as a counter, I've never had an issue with the case and I have the samsung case for them from pre-order and it works great

Buds3pro and wf1000xm5. Buds3pro I use for my daily driver. I love the ease of use with features like voice activated controls, and they sound great. But when I really want the best sound for music the sony xm5's are stunning in that department, incredible bass and clarity.

The Buds Pro 3 are better than Airpods in every way except for build quality feeling slightly cheaper. I've owned Airpod Pros 1 and 2, and Galaxy Buds 2 and 3. The 3 are something else!

I've got the buds 3 pro. Idk not a fan on Samsung ear buds though.

I have both. They're both really good but if I had to give a set a way it would be the buds 3 pro. To me the sound quality, battery life and ANC are all better on the XM5. I love the look of the galaxies and they're definitely good don't get me wrong I just prefer the XM5. I use s25 ultra btw

Xm5 are the best in-ear buds I've ever used and didn't have an issue. Buds pro 3 are great but had charging case issues. Nothing wrong that I can say about the xm5s. But to be fair I been testing the az100 by technics for about a week and they def stack up against xm5. Could venture to say just flat out blasting rock/electronic music that the az100 sound "better" than xm5. ANC is just as good if not better as well. Time will tell if the battery and charging hold up over time but I'm gonna give them a good hard try because wow they sound amazing. Do yourself a favor Check out technics az100 before buying Sony or bose. You can always buy on Amazon and test them for a couple weeks to decide 👍

XM5 has battery issues, galaxy buds 3 pro is an all rounder on all categories. Not the best in everything but balanced.

I like the ANC on the Buds3 Pro compared to any of the previous models.

I find their sound quality so digital/artificial compared to my denon perl pros. The denons can blast music like floor speakers. I might return the buds 3 pros to either get a used Px7 S2E or save a bit more for a AZ 100

The buds 3 pro are more comfortable, significantly lighter and that is their only advantage over the denons. Sound is definitely on the bright side while the denons are warm. In all other aspects of sound quality the denons are WAY better. I now only use the buds 3 pro when I forget to bring my denons with me. Sound isolation wether active or passive is also worst on buds. Buds are just my back up pair now. The denons can compete with wired hifi earbuds in sound quality in the $300-500 range.

I just picked up the buds3 pro and they are great (upgraded from buds live) with the note20ultra. My only complaint with them is getting use to "pinching" the "blades" to start/stop music and take/end calls. The fit is good for my ears (it comes with 3 different size ear tips) and I don't have the fear of them falling off. It isn't bass heavy and the sound is clear. I ordered them from the Samsung Shop app and got a promo code from them. Paid $147 shipped out the door.

I bought these on launch. I hated them (compared to airpods pro 2). When using during certain sounds (like mowing the grass or edging) it would pulse a very sharp and loud sound into my ears because the ANC was horrible. They sounded good when not using ANC, but frankly it wasnt worth it.

Yep, I even RMA'd them and the replacement pair had the same issue :(

B3P were(are?) the first TWS from any manufacturer that have dual amp AND hybrid drivers (1 Dynamic and 1 planar magnetic). There's a slight loss of LFE going to the PM vs the B2P dual dynamics but ive solved it slightly with better sealing tips. What you do gain is the ability to crank the volume while keeping clarity and distortion minimal vs other earbuds. If you are using UHQ with a Samsung flagship phone (their answer to LDAC) with accompanying high bitrate ,no/low compression media it really stands out. When I got my first set of B3P and did A|B comparison with multiple high end TWS earbuds- what convinced me were very busy and instrumentally dense music passages were effortlessly reproduced up into higher volume past what the other buds could do when they would distort or sound muddy since the drivers just couldn't keep up. There's a reason that brands like Audeze (before Sony acquired them for their audio tech) were some of the best and preferred headphones with their planar magnetic drivers. I liked them so much in traded in my B2P for a second pair. I have these wired AKGs also, but these older wired drivers are just not at this level. Much of the audio tech gained from the Harman Kardan portfolio (AKG was part of this acquisition) go into all Samsungs new audio products.

I have the 3 pros, and its definetly a step up, compared to the original bros, no competition, og are trash rn, also better than the 2 pro ofc, something i really like more than anc is the ambient mode, literally like having nothing in ears, I do prefer the ANC of my Airpods Pro 2 tho! But they indeed did a really good job with this ones.

I have both, i think the buds 2 pro are more comfortable, but worse sound and ANC, still if u just using it for the gym ill say go for the 2 pro, more than enough for that case, if ur gonna use them more outside that then the 3 pro cause they just are better

I love my B3P but if you work outdoors like running machines, such as weedeater or even air tools these things arent that good, you get ALOT of unwanted noise, i have a MX4 pair so i use those when the buds 3 pro dont cut it 5/10 noise cancelling from me. Also wish the battery lasted longer per use, they charge roughly 50% per 15 minutes which js good for about 2 hours which i can work with which is good, reading notifications and voice playback controls are probably my favorite features tbh those 2 make these a 8/10 for me

Had the WF1000XM4 before the buds 3 pro and boy the noise canceling is not even close the the Sony ones although I had the battery problem with the MX4. But the way Sony didn't take responsibility I said I would never buy their headphones again but in general apart from the comfort and convenience of using with various Samsung products but in terms of audio and noise cancellation the Sony is in a different league.

I thought it was just me but i do have some instances that the noise just popped real loud and makes me want to take it off.

I have used both and my wife says the Huawei FreeBuds Pro 3 are the best. Plus they have "real" multipoint . With the Galaxy Buds3 Pro you need to be in the Samsung ecosystem, I.E. you can only switch between Samsung devices if you are logged into a Samsung account. The FreeBuds Pro 4 just came out as well, but they may be locked into the Huawei ecosystem...let's hope not. I am awaiting an Android review before I jump on those. For now the Freebuds Pro 3 are the best, but the battery life is pathetic at 3-4 hours.

Fe might be the best fit in most cases bcz it has wingtips buds3 and 3 pro quite similar to airpods3 and pro respectively, but the big stem might cause discomfort to some ppl. buds pro is the biggest and thickest one, most ppl dont go with it. buds 2 is the smallest but the most slippery pair. buds 2 pro is somewhere in between this duo. buds live is weirdly shaped, meant to be a competitor of normal airpods(comfy for most) but its long shape break its meaning buds 1 and buds+ are similar to fe, but you hardly find a new pair of them these days gear icon x same as buds 1.

Buds3 pro love them!

Clip earbuds. I'm wearing them now. I use them when in social environments, and zoom meetings. They're life changing. I have soundcore ones. I also have Samsung Galaxy pro buds 2 & 3..I need different headphones for different reasons, but my clips are amazing for life of you're around people.

Be ready for that annoying whistle/feedback if you remove them touching sightly the mic. Other than that, they sound for the current price.

I am also in the current predicament as well. When I had an iPhone 13, I had the air pod pro (gen 2) and honestly, I miss them after everything I've dealt with. Before I switched to Android I got the Bose Comfort Quite ear buds and loved them, but not even into a full year of owning them did they start to mess up. I sent them in and got replacements thinking I wouldn't have the same issue again, but here I am THREE MONTHS later and the issue is starting a new. I got the Galaxy Buds Pro 3 to test them out and honestly I'm not the biggest fan, to me they seem like a cheaper version of the air pods and I'd rather have the air pods. The fit is terrible and as a music lover, the sound quality is subpar, especially compared to my bose. So, I will be retuning them and I'm looking into getting a pair of the Jabra Elite 10, hopefully I get the gen 2 but there isn't much to diverse which posting is for which on Amazon. Most of what was listed off on this post has some sort of return warning on Amazon, the only ones that didn't were the Jabra Elite 10 (gen 2) and the Linkbuds S.

Galaxy buds 3 pro. Moved from an S24 Ultra and these have come across seamlessly. Sound quality is excellent, only criticism is the shape of them and the fact the controls don't work with gloves on (pretty sure my old airpods pro would)

For me airpods pro and samsung buds pro fit really really well, both sounds amazing I'd for my liking samsung even a bit better, haven't used the other 2 but either samsung or airpods you wouldn't regret imo, but some did complain about tips falling off from samsung which they said they have fixed so

We have a different experience in our household. I tried the Liberty 4 Pro and after a few hours, my ears would hurt. The buds are heavier and more slippery. Also, the case is awful, I mean, looks nice, but it's huge and slippery, you forget which is the front and which is the back, the sliding to place the buds isn't smooth, I don't know, just wasn't a great experience. I gave it to my teens and one of them, who had been using my Liberty 4 NC, switched back to these after a week, citing just plain usability. Call quality and all sound and ANC and all are nice, but user experience not. My younger teen also tried them and stuck with his earfuns. Right now, they're in a drawer. So when we got some new Galaxy phones, I got some Buds 3 Pro for my wife, and she loved them. I got another Galaxy for my son and got another pair of Buds 3 Pro for myself and I haven't looked back. It has been 5 months and they are my daily drivers. So comfortable! I use them to switch between iMac, iPad, Z Flip 5, windows PC and now even my galaxy watch 8, and it handles all well. HOWEVER, and this is the only downside I really hate and see as a wtf missed opportunity, is the lack of multipoint. Come on... Aside from this, ANC is not great when doing really loud stuff, like cutting the grass. For when I need real ANC, I use my Sony WF-XM5. Those keep anything out. If that isn't enough, WH-XM4's will do the job. Why don't I use the WF-XM5s as my daily driver, considering their sound is great and the multipoint is flawless? Well, because the call quality is underwhelming (hit or miss) and they're not as comfy and just so easy to forget you have them on, as the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. A few days ago, I noticed the existence of the Liberty 5 Pro, but if pictures are correct, is the same design, so I don't think I have any reason to give them a shot. I have the Soundcore Motion X600 and love it, and really wanted the Liberty series to work for me, but they didn't. My two subjective cents.

XM6's might be around the corner. I know Sonys ones are kinda big, they use foam tips although this can be changed, better battery life and anc. Samsung with its new design kinda easy to knock out, listening to music at gym, changing clothes they'll fall out. Niche situation but it happens. 3pros have ip rating. https://youtu.be/AbqR3WC76EA?si=9NmK6DZjNhQBPrDe

https://preview.redd.it/g8woudrioelf1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cbcfb6f690f6723b2d7cef0996eb57348d17bd22 I feel like you need to change tips to get a good seal because the stock tuning on these have way too much bass for me, so much so that they start bleeding into the lower mids and sound boomy.

* Prepares to get massive down votes * Honestly they hold up pretty bad, the Buds 3 Pro are loud (maybe a little too much) but the sound lacks the richness AKG buds had. Earbud design is just a shabby Airpods knock off with gimmicky lights. The build quality of both the buds and the case is atrocious, the case gets noticeable scratches within weeks. They silver earbuds start to loose color in the points where it contacts the skin. Battery is sub par on the earbuds and just fine with the case (although on the nice side the earbuds charge pretty quick). UHQ Audio isn't available on the same devices that also support 24 bit on the Buds 2 Pro (Like the S22). Also if this is a feature you're looking forward to be mindful Samsung doesn't say which devices actually support it. ANC is fine imo. It won't block all noises on its own but listening to something even at low volume will still muffle pretty much anything. If you can, go for them B&W Pi7 S2 or WF-5 instead

I have a Pad 7 Pro, and it is the only Xiaomi device I have. I use a Galaxy phone. Should I buy the Bluetooth version or the non-mi earbuds? (I don't want galaxy buds 3 pro, they sound awful)

The Buds3 Pro’s surround sound is definitely an upgrade over the original Buds Pro. The old 360 Audio felt kind of gimmicky, narrow soundstage, sometimes boxy, also not very convincing. With the Buds3 Pro, Samsung improved the processing and head-tracking, so 5.1/7.1 content and Atmos mixes come across more spacious and believable.

Buds 3 Pro currently, and they're fantastic. I had Jabra previously and the audio quality is much poorer than even the 3 sets of JBL 230NC I had before them. Each set of buds were replaced after they either stopped charging after only a few months or battery life just sucked.

I've had a pair of the Sonys and now have the Buds pro 3. I feel the sound quality is a wash, but the ANC on the Sonys was far superior. How does the Bose ANC compare to the Sonys?

Buds 3 Pro. Pretty great experience. Used since release

I have buds 3 pro, a person talking next to me with anc active is barely audible. It lets through some background noises but only slighlty. Vacuum cleaner sounds like you tried to quitely make vacuum cleaner noises with your mouth. Overall pretty solid.

I don't really know, noone told me they can hear it so far. And when I take them out I don't hear them, but I don't really have them set to loud volumes. They can be heard, since when I touch them in particular way with adaptive ANC on, they sometimes beep and it can be pretty loud. Also you might want to test how they fit in your ears. For example for me, the left one fits perfectly, while the right one is kinda loose and I need to push it in from time to time. So I guess depends on shape of your ear.

Shure is probably the most mediocre of iems you can get as they are way too overpriced for their performance, besides them having great foamtips, they really are good for nothing else and I can easily name 10+ better iems than a shure se846. Over the last 15 years, I've used a ton of different headphones and earbuds, I would recommend either the momentum4 or xm5, sony has slightly better ANC but sennheiser has better sound. If you want something balanced and decent at both but comfortable to wear a long time, airpods max. However, I just have to say, with the way NYC is, I actually prefer not having ANC most of the time and being more aware of my surroundings, plus summer is kind of hot for headphones and earbuds are pretty good in which case I suggest the galaxy buds3 pro which are pretty amazing for ANC earbuds or the bose ultra open earbuds which are great for non-anc.

How is sound quality vs the buds 2 pro? I chose to upgrade to buds 3 pro from buds live instead of steelseries gamebuds. So far, sound is incredible(using a bt adaptern avantree c81 gaming for no latency). Also have Arctis 7P but don't use them than often anymore and sounds seems very comparable to me to the buds 3 pro.

I feel like my B3P doesn't do anything when thé music is not playing. When playing, there is a big différence between ANC ON AND OFF. Do you have similar expérience?

I meant it like this: when anc on and music off, anc barely do anything. Is IT the same for you?

Ibang iba talaga kapag Galaxy buds din. Pwede ka mag Buds3 Pro for below 8k.

Buds 3 pro, basically the Airpods pro 2 for Samsung devices.

I have all the buds in my post and buds 2 pro, buds3 pro. I remember when I bought the FE, I thought to myself that Samsung have dropped a bollock here! These buds are Soooo good, at the time the buds 2 pro were the top of the line and I must admit they are seriously good but the FE are not that far behind them. I bet Samsung lost a lot of sales on the buds2 pro to the FE. But the buds3 pro are out of this world mate, they just do everything right, especially there voice command feature, you don't have to touch the stems, it's all controlled by voice, sublime.

I agree with you, I had the liberty 4 nc from launch, paid £55 and they simply are a superb pair of buds. I have the buds 2 pro, buds 3 pro and linkbuds s. B3p has great anc but I agree the liberty 4 nc are as good, if not slightly better which is astonishing at the price. B3p are terrible for wind noise, so I use the buds 2 pro on windy days. Linkbuds s are also great with wind noise and the anc is superb, they are rarely mentioned but I think they're better than the xm5 buds which I returned the next day!

i got the buds 3 pro on release day and everything about them is great from sound quality to noise canceling to comfort

Buds 3 Pro, a better stable connection between your device (Galaxy S23), not to mention they'll talk very well with each other, exclusive features such as UHQ (Ultra High Quality) for the highest sound quality and possibly SWB (Super Wide Band) for a better call quality depending on your region with your S23 not to mention your getting it for a cheaper price

OMG, dude, Moondrop is semi-noname crap. Buds 3 Pro are Premium earbuds with an amazing tech inside. Wtf? That's ridiculous

Samsung Galaxy Buds pro 3 are a pretty good overall package. ,sound cancellation is pretty decent, good transparency mode and comfortable fit. You can get around 6hrs or battery per bud plus the case.

The best earbuds for working out have silicone tips. The ones without Ala airpods and galaxy buds 3 are not great at all. I use Bose QC Ultra AND Galaxy Buds3 Pro for the gym. Both are comfy and pretty secure. The Bose are better for ANC. Jabra Elite 10 & Elite 8 actives are also very good. Sennheiser Momentum Sport are fairly new and have the added advantage of little wingtips. They also come with a heart rate sensor built in. All the above do have silicone tips though. So without silicone tips u could something like Shokz or Bose Open buds (forget the exact name). Neither will have ANC and wont block out the rubbish background music that most gyms tend to blast out.

Currently im enjoying the Sennheiser MTW4's as my daily. I also use the GalaxyBuds3 Pro and the Jabra ELite 10's and im happy to wear any of these if needed.

Yes but unfortunately no one earbud set contains all of the good things. Best ANC = Bose QC Ultra Best sound = MTW4, Technics Az80/100, Pi8, Devialet Gemini 2 etc etc Best comfort = Bose QC Ultra or Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro imo Best mic and call quality = Galaxy Buds3 Pro imo. Some say Huawei pro 3 Best battery.. Most are 6hrs+ without anc and up to 6hrs with There are prob buds I've forgotten but I have tried a lot and my faves up to no have been the MTW4's. Not the best at everything but the best all round imo.

I have or had a lot of the the popular 2023/2024 tws earbuds and my no1 all-rounder is the Sennheiser MTW4. My runners up are the Jabra Elite 10 and Galaxy Buds3 Pro

I'm a bit disappointed with these as they keep falling out of my ears if I do anything more than a slow walk and when you use the controls it just loosens the fit further Tried my wife's airpods, and they're night and day It doesn't matter how good the features are if they don't stay in your ears.

Our right, It's a pity the shops don't have display buds you can try on before buying. I do feel the airpods have a better design that hooks better to the ear rather than just the angled design on the samsung

Buds pro 3! Just got them recently loving them rn

I am using Buds 3 Pro and it's perfect with my S24 Ultra

I enjoy mine. The quality is good as far as sound. Design is innovative, but the quality of the product isn't good. Dropped the left ear from less than a foot and already have a prominent scuff on them.

Picked up a pair at launch, and have loved them. Ear positioning took some getting used to, but they are good for calls and music. I lost mine somewhere at home. By the time that I realized Samsung had a version of Find My, they already had a dead battery. Been waiting for a chance to get another pair, thanks!

What about Galaxy Buds 3 Pro? It had a lot of contraversy when it first came out, but eventually I got it for my partner and they love it. I have tried it on couple of runs because my earbuds were dead, and I loved it. Great ANC, great ambient sound and they do not move at all, at least for me. I have a Samsung phone. Earbuds are pretty personal though, so you'll probably need to buy and try it out for yourself unfortunately

Have you tried changing the tips? Buds3 Pro's sit outside your ears so maybe it's not fit for you :(

I had to use they are pretty bad. When I used them the ANC is literally worse than my Galaxy buds FE, it makes the higher frequency louder. And it's a lot less comfortable than the Galaxy but Fe because the Galaxy buds Fe have a stem for the actual part that goes into your ear. But this design has the whole bulge going into your ear which is a lot more uncomfortable.

Had to get another set a year or so ago. Would still be rocking them, but my wife lost her Buds FE, asked to use mine....and well, found myself using some JBL ear buds (didn't fit, so they sucked for me). Eventually got the buds pro 3 while getting a new phone for the missus. Would've given them to her but she seems rather attached to the buds+ May you continue to have long life and prosperity with your Buds+ ☺️

If your getting a Samsung phone you really should consider the Galaxy Buds3 Pro. They've got some really good features, sound great, and connect instantly to your phone (technically a feature, I know).

They're really good, I love my buds 3 pro and find myself using them the most because the mic is the best I've used of any buds and I love the tight integration with OneUI on my phone. However I do also own WF-1000XM5's, and the noise cancelling is much better on them. You are missing out, but buds 3 pro noise cancelling is definitely good enough. I have tested them side by side pretty extensively. E.g when using my buds 3 in the same room as my air conditioner with nothing playing through the buds, I can still hear the air conditioner pretty clearly, it's just very reduced in volume and muffled. With the XM5s, the AC is completely gone. Just, nothing at all. And yes, I do have a very tight seal with both earbuds, I use custom tips on my buds 3 pro. The XM5's also have much, much better battery life from what I have tested. Like, well over double the battery in the buds themselves. I can wear them for like 8 hours with ANC, its honestly crazy how long they last. Buds3 pro dies in like 3-4 for me. I will say the overall winner between them for me is the buds 3 pro though so you still made the right choice. I prefer the brighter sound of the buds 3 pro and I think the bass sounds much clearer/deeper on them too, you can actually hear sub-basses clearly with the buds 3 pro unlike the XM5s where it gets quite muddy. Honestly surprising to me considering it's Sony we're talking about here. But the Sony's do still sound really good overall, it's more a matter of preference. The Sony mic is fucking garbage though, and for that reason alone the buds have been my go to. I know nobody asked for a comparison here, but here you go anyway lol. Calling the buds 3 pro the best is simply untrue but yes, they are very solid and id recommend them to anyone who has a Samsung phone. I think that's the only reason they work so well. Use it with anything else and it won't be that good.

Picked up the Noble FoKus Rex5 to compliment my Buds3 Pro which I use for calls. Definately prefer the Rex5 for all audio but for calls the Buds3 Pro. I was surprised by the fit of the Rex5. At first I thought it might be an issue but it fits very well. Dont want to spend too much - Get whatever comes with your phone deal (package, or top up) Just swipe the credit card - Noble Fokus Rex5

I had the QC Ultra that I returned during their 90-day trial and replaced with the Buds3 Pro. The Bose had the best sound and ANC based on my experiences but the connection was glitchy from time to time with sometimes only 1 bud connecting. Features were also limited, but my goodness were they comfortable. As I'm in the Samsung ecosystem, the Buds3 Pro just did a lot more and was the better daily drivers. I enjoy the hands-free voice options to control music and engage Bixby to control my smart home devices, set timers etc. No idea how such an expensive Bose earbuds only offered wireless charging via an additional accessory case.

If you have an samsung, get the buds 3 pro. The bass and the sound is crystal. You also get the samsung seamless codec if you care about sound quality

I was actually pleasantly surprised by the sound quality of the Buds 3 Pro. Definitely competitive with the XM5s. I've never tried buds from Bose, though

I agree strongly. I own the following earbuds: XM5, Buds 3 Pro, Liberty 4 NC, and the Bose QC Ultra. I took all of the earbuds and my Bose QC 45 headphones on a flight recently. I wanted to finally see if any of these earbuds can compete with my Bose QC 45's. I got tired of all these claims of this is better than this. I wanted to see what to MY ears provided the best ANC. I find earbuds more comfortable anyways because of my glassses. I found Bose QC Ultra earbuds easily rivaled the Bose QC 45's! I was shocked. I don't know what king of magic or voodoo they are doing but they are my main ANC audio gear for flying. I am contemplating on buying a 2nd pair or just bring one of my other earbuds as a backup to circumvent the battery limitations on long duration flights. Carrying 2 cases of earbuds is a lot smaller and easier to pack than headphones too.

Yeah I was wondering if the buds 3 pro would even come close. I think the answer is "kind of"

I love mine, tight bass and clear treble perfect sound for basically anything. Better than airpods no doubt

Hey everyone! I’m in the market for a new pair of flagship TWS earphones and could really use your expertise. My current **Galaxy Buds3 Pro** have been inconsistent, especially with battery life. With ANC on, I barely get **3 hours of playback**, and the case needs daily charging since it only fully recharges them twice. I’m looking for an upgrade that’s a **long-term investment** (2+ years) with no major compromises. **My Criteria:** * **Android-compatible** (no AirPods, please). * **Build quality** that can withstand daily use. * **Battery life**: **6+ hours with ANC** (case should last at least 2 full charges). * Reliable performance over time (no sudden hardware/software failures). **Models I’ve Researched (and Concerns):** 1. **Sony WF-1000XM5**: * Loved the XM4’s sound and ANC, but mine died after 1.5 years. Heard XM5 has similar battery degradation issues. Is this true? 2. **Sennheiser Momentum 4**: * Praised for sound quality, but I’ve seen complaints about long-term durability and firmware bugs. Anyone own these for 1+ years? 3. **Bose QuietComfort Ultra**: * ANC is stellar, but reviews mention mediocre app experience, connectivity hiccups, and plasticky build. Bose users: How’s your experience? 4. **Technics AZ80**: * Seems perfect, but **not available in India**. Open to alternatives with similar performance. **My Questions:** * Are my concerns about the XM5/Momentum 4/Bose overblown, or should I avoid them? * Any **alternatives** with **great ANC, battery life, and build quality** that I’ve missed? * For long-term users: Which TWS have held up well after 1–2 years? **Budget:** Open to flagship pricing if it’s truly worth it. **Priorities:** Battery > ANC > Sound > Build > App Features. Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏 EDIT: So after hours and hours of watching comparison videos and reading articles and reddit reviews, I went ahead and ordered myself jabra elite 10 Gen 1 (Gen 2 not available in my country 😭). They arrive on thursday so lets hope they are upto the standards that I am looking for.

The ANC is great. Equivalent to the ANC of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro.

Yeah, I have the Galaxy Buds 3 pro's as well. Don't get me wrong. I love 'em. But, hopefully the new ones that come out next year have the improvements that they put in the fan edition version. Just with all the bells and whistles.

They are. I could honestly do without the blade lights. But, the fan edition version actually has better call quality.

The ANC on the new fan edition that came out last week is great. I would say it's damn near equivalent the Galaxy Buds 3 pro.

I don't find that to be true at all. Like I said, I find it to be damn near equivalent to the buds 3 pro and the noise cancellation on the buds 3 pro is EXCELLENT. You're gonna have to get a pair and judge for yourself.

Buds 3 pro. Best ear buds I have ever had. The voice control are a feature I cannot go without now

They will be great. Try the voice command feature when you get them, so useful.

Galaxy buds 3 pro is excellent with s22 by me

My Samsung buds 3 pro maybe last slightly longer but I never use any longer than 4-5hrs

Switched from s24u and the samsung buds 3 pro works really well.

had the buds + for 4 years, then the buds 2 pro, then the buds3 pro. loved the buds+ decent sound quality but the battery was crap. the buds 2 pro was better but i did not like the ear fit. the bus3 pro has improved all the previous issues.

Buds 3 pro has great fit

Traded mine in for the buds pro 3. I miss them.

I love my Galaxy buds 3 pro, but am biased because I've only had these and the 2 pros. These fit in the ear much better, sound better LOVE the voice commands and the touch controls are much more functional and comfortable to use. Remember you can always download third party equalizers if you want to get more technical with tweaking your sound more than you can with the stock Samsung one.

I haven't tried those, but my Tozo N2s were twice as good as my Buds 3 Pros.

Just gotta say it: if you have a samsung phone, Galaxy Buds 3 Pro.

There is this thing called an audio codec. Which one you use affects the quality of the sound. Samsung have their own in-house codec, which is pretty much the best out there, but only available on samsung phones and tablets paired with samsung buds. There's also flawless connectivity and a few settings that are available only on galaxy phones (kinda like how iPods pair best with iPhones).

Personally, I kinda hate the default sound of Buds3 Pro, I do find the tuning of the APP2 better.

Sadly I had a different experience, I even tried buying premium memory foam tips but the bulge on the top of these earbuds presses on my ears and they just will never be comfortable for me to wear for long. I guess you just have to try for yourself to find out but I really wish I'd purchased them before I was leaving on a trip as I would have returned them otherwise.

From a guy who has about 20 pairs keep it simple get the Galaxy buds pro 2 or 3

just get the buds3 pro. They can be found easily for below 150 bucks.

I came from the Lib 4 (not the pro) and I find the sound quality noticeably better (significantly). However the battery seems to suck on them.

samsung earbuds pro 3. Great sound and stay firmly in place..

Buds2 pro have the best ANC. Buds3 Pro have the best audio and comfort. 2nd best ANC. If bass is your most important aspect. Buds2 pro. They are the deepest. The 3 pros are more focused on how the artist created the track. For richer balanced sound and a larger sound stage for a “purer” experience. The buds2 pro have a very warm sound stage heavily focused on the Bass.

Same for me - fast delivery (2 day) - no problem with taking off the eartips - great bass and loving the equaliser

If you're using samsung then go with the samsung buds 3 pro.

Samsung buds works well with samsung phones. Also it supports hi res support on samsung phones.

Galaxy buds 3 pro. I’ve been using AirPods since they originally came out everyday for at least 5-8 hours (school and work). I used the original hard plastic AirPods, then the AirPods Pro, AirPods Pro 2. I broke my AirPods Pro 2 last week. I ended up purchasing the Samsung galaxy buds 3 pro. I have genuinely been impressed. Transparency mode works really well and the ANC is pretty good too. The sound quality is really good. Better than the AirPods in my opinion. I find myself wanting to listen to music more with these. They work seamlessly with my iPhone as well.

Agree. I'd say apple does it smoother but these are better. My only real gripe is the anc. The loud pop. I was just putting away clean silverware the other day and when the metal landed on the other then it made a loud pop. Very uncomfortable.

The B3P's ANC works well + you can adjust the ambient noise level. What I really like about the B3P's ANC is that it works independently (on its own)... w/o your cell having to be nearby - which isn't often but still quite handy. Conversely, my Jabra buds must be connected for their ANC to work.

I don’t know what you mean by “Gaming Earbuds”, if you are talking about playstation earbuds and all of those i wouldn’t recommend them. They are not bad but not great too and are commonly very expensive and “Gaming” tag is more marketing. I would recommend Nothing Ear 2024, those have one of the best sound and bass of the market. Hi-Res audio and spatial audio. They have also great ANC and decent transparency mode for everyday use on phone. And you can find them at only around 100$: You can also take something like samsung galaxy buds 3 pro but as for me i would say they are pretty much the same sound quality and maybe a little bit better ANC but nothing making them worth the upgrade, they are just not worth the extra money.

Sorry for late answer, those type of EarBuds are promoting especially the spatial audio, low latency and some other more little details. Those can be a great option for sure but as long as the others earbuds you are looking at are quite good like Galaxy Buds 3 Pro they won’t really be better in any way compared to Galaxy Buds 3 Pro which have one of the best sound and ANC on the market and will be better on every day use even if it’s not gaming. If you are only looking to use them for gaming for sure those can be the better option as they cost less but the price is not much different.

I had these since launch, you're correct...until earlier this year when they fixed it.

The ANC on the Buds Pro 3 from Samsung is good. The Bose QC2 have good anc. The only downside is their big (so if you have small ears they may be irritating and phone calls are a bit mediocre with loud background noise but very good if area is quiet). Re Bose, Costco USA still has the 130 price that is really good.

I have big ears, and the gb3p never slipped out. The sound quality is amazing, but you will have to disable adjust sound to fit

I made this change and don't regret it at all. Got the 3 pros for $100 after trade in. Getting them for $100 and keeping the 2s as a backup is a steal imo

I have used both. GB3P are miles ahead in terms of sound and call quality. They are also more comfortable than XM5. The only negative is the average battery life. You will get around 5 hours with the Anc on.

GB3P sound is clearer and less muddy when compared to XM5.

I have used both. Sound is more clearer on B3P. Otherwise, both are fine.

Buds 3 Pro has powerful sound and great mic quality.

This was my experience, too.

Got the 3 Pro and I like them but I also do not need them that often, price was a bit less than 120$ because of the cashback.

I use my AirPods Pro 2, but I recently got the Galaxy Buds Pro 3 for $50, so I've started using those.

Perl Pro comments sound to me like Denon has a huge marketing budget. Galaxy Buds Pro 3 are actually lowkey epic. The AZ80's are also very good. Smooth sound? AZ80. Impact? Pro 3. That's all I've tested out of these "best SQ's" That said, Connectivity is GOD on the AZ80's. Like instant multipairing perfection gucci mane holy fk. All other multi pairing doesn't work for me.

I had my galaxy buds 3 pro for about 4 months and they sounded great the whole time, then I accidentally put them through the wash and I bought a new pair which also sounded great. Like half an hour ago I was playing around with my broken pair and I was able to connect them and they still sound just as good as before the went through the wash. The only damages are physical and don't effect the sound quality in anyway and I just wanted to glaze the galaxy buds 3 pro because of how much I love them.

They do sometimes leave the case when dropped but not super often

Yes, and when they drop, they usually don't leave the case unlike airpods

Well airpods don't come out the case alot but more then these, but that's just my experience so I might be wrong. I've never owned airpods but a few if my friends do

i've owned every single one of the samsung buds pro lines and would just like to say the buds pro 3 is the best sound quality so far and also the worst quality overall product. they disconnect and fail to charge randomly (you have to fix by factory reset), sweat disables their charging sometimes for hours, and I've already had to send a pair for repair because it just randomly stopped working. warranty did ship me something within a day though so that's nice. zero issues with the buds pro 2 and i still use 'em.

Buds 3 pro for the integration. They also sound great.

I would personally advise avoiding them Samsung's quality is in the crapper on the bud pro 3. There's uneven charging issues, insufficient charging and not charging issues that are prevalent. I don't believe Samsung has acknowledged any of these issues but if you look around everyone's complaining about them. There's a lot of DIY fixes that people are doing by adjusting contacts etc however the fact remains that the quality is in the crapper.

I own both. Buds 3 Pro are better in almost every way I can think of. I would not buy the Sony's again.

I have galaxy buds 3 pro and I'm blown away by quality. With active noise canceling on, everything goes completely silent

I've had mine for a week and they are awesome 👌

Liberty 4 pro and 5 are on my list before, but got the buds 3 pro cause i have an s25. Im happy with it but for its price I was expecting everything to be smooth. I really miss TRUE multipoint connection.

Galaxy Buds Live were the best in comfort. A bean model is normal to lay in the ear. for music all the Pro models were good and the ANC during music was also good. Whenbit comes to calls the Buds 2 Pro were the best, they included a shield which was very nice and ANC was well. Buds 3 Pro during calls sucks. ANC isn't good when you're outside. They need to update that product

I’ve been using HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro since the first generation and recently upgraded to the FreeBuds Pro 4. Solid choice in terms of both sound quality and mic clarity, plus you can enable LDAC in the Bluetooth settings. I did give the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro a try, but the cabinet pressure feeling and weaker mic performance made me go back to HUAWEI.

Gemini 2.0 summary : Sound Quality: Good, comparable to other top ANC earbuds. Lossless audio is more marketing than reality. Bass is stronger than the Buds 2 Pro, and the soundstage is wider. 360 audio is improved with optional head tracking. Dislikes: * White noise/hissing: Noticeable, especially near sound sources like a noise machine. * Battery life: Shorter than advertised (4.5-5 hours with ANC on). Fast charging is a plus. * Pairing: Requires the case, unlike previous models. Favorite Features: * Voice control: Responsive and doesn't require Bixby. * Single bud use: Full control (volume, ANC) with one earbud. * Call quality: Excellent noise cancellation and clear mics, especially with Samsung devices. * LEDs on blades: Visibly indicate when the user is on a call. * Adaptive mode: Intelligently adjusts ambient sound and ANC. * Case location: Buds inside the case can be located via Samsung Find. Overall: The reviewer finds the Buds 3 Pro a worthwhile upgrade, particularly for those who make a lot of phone calls, despite the white noise and battery life issues. The adaptive mode and improved call quality are highlighted as key selling points.

I like wired for certain occasions. Like on a plane >6 hours i bring wired because battery isnt great with ANC on the Buds3 Pro

I have all three. Xm5s are good for me. Nice fit. The app for the bose quietcomfort 2 is a lot better now. Galaxy buds pro 3 seem to have theirs mostly sorted now with the new batch they selling. I have had one random issue with my buds pro 3 though and that's the left earbud randomly disconnecting then reconnecting. Other than that hiccup, all 3 pairs have been really good for me.

Which one is at the top then for voice calls if not the Liberty 4 Pro. I have the 3 Pro and no Samsung headphones I owe get even close to the call quality of the 3 Pro.

I will always say the tozo nc9 2024 version is literally as good ANC as my samsung buds 3 pros! Other than that, the soundcore a40s are good as well.

I have had all of them except the Sony buds. The Samsung buds and Apple AirPods are very much alike, buy the ones that fits your ecosystem the best. However I would not recommend the Bose buds, a lot of people have reported a summing noise in the left(?) bud (dont sure if it was the left or right). When I bought my Bose buds ultra I had the same summing noise. Quality control issues most likely.

Buds 3 - no, they are falling off just when I rotate my head, usable only for listening while sitting Buds 3 pro 50/50. Very personal, but for me 2pro worked better. 3 pro for me don't work properly in heavy weight workouts, but fine for running, still trying to move out but not critical. I've lost each ear bud 6 times today while bench press and shoulders training, hate this smooth surface and form.

I've been testing out the Samsung Buds 3 Pro, Nothing Ear 2024, and Technics AZ100 after buying them to see how they stack up against each other. Here's a breakdown of what I found. Noise-Canceling & Transparency When it comes to blocking out the world, the Samsung Buds 3 Pro are just incredible. Their Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is a perfect 10/10. No, like seriously, it's on par with the best from Apple and Sony! The Technics AZ100 are pretty good too, at an 8.5-9/10, but the Nothing Ear 2024? Their ANC is honestly pretty bad, scoring only a 4-5/10. For transparency, where you let sound in, the Samsung buds are amazing, almost perfect at 9.85/10. Just a tiny bit below APP2. The Technics AZ100 are decent at 9.3/10, but they have a noticeable white noise. The Nothing Ear earbuds are a different story, though. Their transparency is horrible, with lots of white noise and a weird muffled feel, earning a low 4/10. Sound & Fit For pure sound quality, the Samsung and Nothing earbuds are tied. They both deliver awesome sound, a solid 9/10. The Technics AZ100 are good too at 8.5/10, but they have a bit too much in the mids for my taste. In terms of fit, the Nothing and Samsung earbuds are super sturdy in my ears, a 9/10. The Technics AZ100 are also very secure at 8.5/10, even though they feel a little weird in my ear. All three are pretty comfortable overall, with each getting a score of 8.5/10. Battery & Features Battery life is where the Technics AZ100 really shine, a perfect 10/10. Both the Samsung and Nothing earbuds are good, but not stellar, at 8/10. And when it comes to the app, the Technics app is a dream, a perfect 10/10! Samsung's is a close second at 9/10, and Nothing's is good enough with an 8/10. I, personally, am going to daily the Samsung buds 3 pro, as for the price (120$), they are AWESOME! Never thought that mid range priced earbud could beat flagship earbuds.

I regret buying them, they keep connecting to phone when in case so I have to forget them and reconnect when I want to use them again, that's horrible use experience. I read something about putting paper inside case or something but dont joke on me, these are not AliExpress 10 dollars buds but something that would like to be premium but it's not.

Buds 3 pro throws it out of the water imo

I never really thought about it, but I think my ears are pretty small because even the small tips on the Buds 3 Pro feel too big for me. I've tried to get the small Azla tips and those aren't sitting well either. I'd say they aren't great for smaller ears based on my experience. Everyone is different, and they may sit better in your outer ear than mine. Also a chance that I'm just doing it wrong and I do actually need the bigger tips...

I love my Galaxy buds 3 pro.

Galaxy buds 2 pro i find it better than the new buds 3 pro tbh At least design wise

Had so many "Buds" - Apple/ Bose/ JBL/ Sony and now Buds Pro 3 and they are without doubt the best I've tried for sound and ANC Sony WF-1000XM5 were really good for ANC but were really bass heavy ( which I normally don't mind ) but were ridiculous. For integration with your Samsung phone the Buds Pro 3 really offer the best option. #

in first month anc was great for me but now anc on vs off have little to no difference. I have no idea what's going wrong with these buds because I'm not only one experience this issue. I downgrade firmware via buds manager client and even that don't fix problem so I guessing now it's hardware fault on these buds and probably one of the mics get corrupted over time

not best anc but they definitely best tws buds you can buy in these price range

I really don't understand the hifi thing. I use samsung buds 3 pro as my daily driver and the sound is superb; it have full equilizer that I can increase decrease bass and change sound the way I like. I also using jbl partybox 320 that sound good but need equilization depend on room and angle you sit and also needs to lower bass little bit. now for soundstage, speaker is definitely better compare to buds but for detail and sound profile my speaker and buds sound close and both of them are great. I had once listened to $4000 bang and olufsen speaker in store and I would say it definitely sound more open and more detailed than my buds 3 pro and partybox 320 but the difference isn't subnational. I can work with equilizer and narrow the gap between them. I also don't see the point for audio files above 320kbps. I think hifi/audiophiles market are just too biased depend on speaker price/brand and they don't want to accept sound don't get any better at some price point. they just enjoying to waste money on +$10k sound systems and their mind stuck in so much snake oils. maybe in past hifi sound make sense because in that time there wasn't great headsets/speakers at lower price and equilizer wasn't great like now

Buds 3 Pro, got them right after a delay. They are great; features like voice recognition—when you say something, they turn down the volume. Sound quality amazing, bit better than my Jabra active 7.

I’d take out the Technics, Sony, and Samsung if ANC is your focus. Their ANC levels are all mid-tier, at most. If you have an iPhone, I’d also add the AirPods Pro 2 to your list. I also suggest adding the JBL Tour Pro 3. In terms of ANC, it goes Bose, JBL, then Sony/Apple. Some argue that the Jabra Elite 10 version 2 have the best ANC, but they let in sounds that were cancelled out by both the Bose QC Ultra (there is no such thing as the Bose QC Ultra 3 earbuds) and JBL Tour Pro 3. If you don’t want to deal with bugs and can take a small, nearly unnoticeable hit in ANC, get the JBL Tour Pro 3. If all you want is ANC and you’re ok with bugs, the Bose QC Ultra earbuds are it.

They stayed in my ears without issues and earbuds like that normally don’t. The AirPods Pro 1/2 and the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro 3 fall out almost instantly. More semi-open earbuds like the AirPods 4 don’t stay in my ears either. I usually need a wing/fin tip for stability. But not with the Tour Pro 3. I think they work better with their foam tips. But, unlike Sony’s hybrid foam-rubber ear tips, they don’t hurt my ears.

I mean, there’s the AirPods Pro 2. They at least charge via USB C. You won’t be able to adjust their settings without downloading a 3rd party app. But they’re fully compatible with Android. For me, the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro fit exactly like the AirPods Pro, just with weird Cybertruck stems. Neither stayed in my ears and the Buds 3 Pro felt the same as the APP2 in my ears.

Most earbuds aren’t going to have that and be limited to the Pixel Buds just like how AirPods and Beats are the only ones that can do Hey Siri on iPhones. They don’t fit like the AirPods Pro, and they’re absurdly expensive, but I’m a big fan of the JBL Tour Pro 3. They actually stay in my ears, have Google Fast Pair, multi-point, and you don’t necessarily need to go through their app to adjust settings. They have less expensive earbuds that might be worth a shot and they look similar to the AirPods Pro. I’ve never tried OnePlus earbuds just because they look like the AirPods Pro and those never stayed in my ears. Plus I want something with strong ANC and theirs always seems to be just ok in reviews.

If you don’t have an iPhone don’t get the AirPods Pro 2. They sound their best on iPhone and you lose all of the features on other os (other than trans/anc). I’d say Sony xm5, technics az80/az100, jbl tour pro 3 and Samsung buds pro 3 are probably the most reliable. If you have an iPhone AirPods Pro 2 are a no brainer, and they sound quite good in a safe allrounder way.

I say air pods pro 2 or galaxy buds 3 pro. They both work great with my s24 ultra

if you can find the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro for cheap I'd go with those. I just got them today and I was super surprised they give my Sony WH-1000XM4 a run for their money

Great earbuds (have 2 sets), but not a great price IMO. Candidly, I would get the $69.99 refurbs from Best Buy, since you have full return privilege and full warranty, in case you get a lemon.

Samsung Galaxy buds 3 or buds 3 pro have an "active listening" feature. The buds have mics on the outside that mix your music with the sounds of your surroundings. The music still sounds great because they they in ear buds. I prefer the buds 3 pro because they have the rubber tips like most earbuds. The buds 3 are hard plastic like airpods. I think they are great because they have excellent sound quality, and you can turn the active listening off. This makes them become normal ear buds with excellent sound quality.

I used my Samsung Galaxy buds pro 3 today and the wind noise was barely noticeable. You're incorrect.

I have galaxy buds pro and galaxy buds 3 pro, both have good ANC, but the latter is far greater.

Sinds een paar maanden bezitter van de GB3pro en tot dusver dik tevreden. ANC werkt prima, geluid is zuiver en ze zitten goed in mijn oren. Gebruiksgemak is goed en het opberg hoesje is zeer solide. Wat mij betreft een aanrader.

Not an audiophile and I still noticed the difference between the Buds 3 Pro and Huawe's Freebuds Pro. Lent my Buds 3 Pro to an actual audiophile and he can confirm the quality rivals Sony's. Not saying they are better, just they are in top tier range. I had to switch from spotify to Deezer, then Tidal to fully exploit them, and boy they are good. ANC works fine for me, there are some sounds that pass through but nothing that 75% volume doesn't fix. Transparent mode is awesome. Mic is low for some reason during calls, but recording it is good, so assuming a software issue.

* I got them about a week ago, and they are causing calluses. I'm surprised too because I have pretty big ears, but I guess the opening to my ear canal is just the wrong shape. It's really frustrating because I really like these earbuds, the sound is great, active nose cancelling, nice case, really solid gesture controls. I'm so stubborn I'm just eating the pain, so my ears are basically conforming to these earbuds and not the other way around. It's to the point where I have a small scab developing. I wanted to post this in case others are prone to this type of thing. Go with the pro set if you are, I regret not getting them and may end up taking these back. * I just checked and I'm actually blistering, anyone else deal with this? That's bad. * What is this crap, reddit is filtering out photos now? Time to switch platforms, things are getting ridiculous. Reddit not allowing photos of my very minor blistering going on, upper inner ear.

I do own both. I will share my experience. My ear slightly bigger especially earphone resting area. Sony sit nicely and cover up all gaps to make better ANC. But Buds 3 pro all ear tips from samsung makes me feel like no ANC at all. Finally found $32 worth ear tips from azla, managed to make 60% of the ANC i was getting with sony. If you really need high quality, buy wired earphones.

Outside the house I use Buds3 Pro and at home I use Edifier Stax Spirit S5

Galaxy buds 3 pro is pretty good. Have been using them since a couple of days and I can say they work well like Airpods pro. And I had been using Airpods pro for 2 years before this.

I did too today. Especially with their 75$ trade in for my buds1 pro and 10% discount for being a Samsung member. Ended up $143 when it was all said and done.

I know this is late but I am on my second pair and they have been plagued with issues. Mostly they will make this AWFUL static sound at max volume for a split second (literal jumpscare) at random times. I exchanged my first pair but my second pair still does this and its so frustrating.

This gets asked probably 3-4 times per week - easy to find answers in the search. If you're using Android, Huawei FreeBuds Pro 3 and Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are the better options due to using a mixture of bone conduction mics for voice and MEMS mics for noise reduction. Unfortunately this incurs cost over using just MEMS mics, which is why every other cheaper set is simply balancing environmental noise reduction with not muffling your voice to the point you're incoherent, and thus falling short of those aforementioned models. If you're using iOS, then go for Airpods (admittedly I've only tested the Airpod 4 ANC). IOS features noise reduction processing on the device itself that makes them outstanding when used with an Apple phone, and completely ordinary on Android.

Why do you think 'everybody is bought off'? Manufacturers might be paying the Gamesky's of this world, with their 100k+ subscribers, but why are they going to pay the little guys for exposure to maybe 5-10k additional views, where are least 30% of viewers will stop watching after 30s, of which 0.5-1% will maybe buy the item. And if everyone is being paid by everyone then nobody is going to say anything bad about anything! Just think about it. And anyway, why listen to these 'trust me bro' influencer type reviewers when there are reputable ones that include long call samples in different environments and leave you to make your own mind up what is acceptable to you? The general consensus from the many occasions this has been asked before haa settled on Huawei FreeBuds Pro 3 and Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. Both brands use bone conduction voice mics as opposed to a whole array of MEMS mics. This results in your own voice separating from the environmental noise a little better than the others which tend to just use MEMS mics exclusively.

Samsung's Buds 3 Pro are awesome.

They are pretty good but I have an issue with Duolingo The sound keeps cutting out I use the Galaxy buds pro 3 and they don’t have this issue. Also the Pixel buds don’t auto read notification announcement. 

I'm really surprised with how much I'm loving the OPB3Ps. I have the AZ80s, the Denon PPs, Galaxy B3Ps and others. Sound, battery life and call quality are just top tier. ANC and pass-through are as good as anything I own. Comfort is subjective, but they're light and I can wear them for hours. HTH!

I came from Soundcore's Liberty 4 NC, then the Liberty 4 Pros. And honestly, you just can't beat the noise canceling on those. I haven't found anything that beats those, but I got the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro for $90, and they blow the Liberty 4 NCs and Pros out of the water in literally every other aspect. The transparency is crystal clear, the sound is super well balanced, they feel more comfortable for long periods of time, and overall, they're just way higher tech than Soundcore. I was honestly very bummed out about the noise canceling on these because I've used different eartips, and those didn't do much. I ended up buying Azla's SednaEarfit Max, and they provided the best seal, but it still just doesn't beat Soundcore.

Oh wow, I said the same thing, lol. The Buds 3 Pro are just nothing in comparison to Soundcore's Liberty 4 NC and Liberty 4 Pro. It's very underwhelming for me, having come from those earbuds to the Buds 3 Pro. In my opinion, the Liberty 4 Pros provide the same amount of noise canceling as the NC's with better audio quality. As I said in a previous comment, however, the Buds 3 Pro blows Soundcore out of the water in every other aspect that ISN'T noise cancelling.

If you plan on using those buds with more than just your phone, I'd recommend sony, but if you want just for phone galaxy buds are better.

Sad that the Status Between 3ANC aren't on the list, I prefer them over my Buds 3 pro and Air Pods pro 2. I love them so much. I bought 2 pairs. One in black, the other white.

Samsung Buds are pretty good, specially paired to Samsung devices due to Samsung's proprietary codec. Being better than wired is hard to gauge becase there are way too many IEMs and headphones out there and different people like different kinds of music (I, for once, do not see what the bass crowd is so hyped about). All that said, convenience alone is enough justification for [Buds 3](https://amzn.to/3GijsGm) ([Buds 2 Pro](https://amzn.to/40oC4eA) or [FE](https://amzn.to/4en1pLG) if you dont like the "stem"). They are great if you ask me. As good as my Superlux Headphones? No, but they are more than enough for when I am on the go.

I have the galaxy buds3 pro, and I'm using a Samsung phone. Is this an upgrade?

Decent sound quality, but a bit weak anc

Technics AZ80 wireless nc buds.....and love them over the Sony XM's and Galaxy Buds3 pro

PRO 3s are good. I also have the Bose Quite Comfort 2 and they both hold up. There is a really good deal on the Pro 3 on the samsung site I got mine for $100 with a trade in on my old buds live

Got them from Tata clique for much cheaper

Samsungs can either do the Samsung codec or ldac. The buds 3 pro sound good to me after I replaced the stock tips. If you want ldac, there are a lot of nice sounding ear buds. What is your budget?

Did you really like the Nothing Ear (2) more than the WF-1000XM5? What did you like more about them? I'm amazed, because it's usually the other way around, except for looks. The Nothing Ear (2) are beautiful earbuds, but the Nothing Ear (2) case is a bit too bold for me. I find my Galaxy Buds 3 Pro's bold design nice, and they have a nice case too.

oh man, I just wanted to hear the opinion of someone who used the Soundcore Liberty 4 pro and compared them to the Galaxy Buds 3 pro. The price of 120 EUR is ok, but think that some people paid 240 EUR for it at the launch price. Considering their bugs/defects, I would return them. If you have good samples, LDAC is better than UHQ, but UHQ is intended to improve the quality of these mediocre and weaker samples. I'm not an audiophile, so it doesn't matter to me, but I can hear the difference. How do the Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro handle with conversations, street, noise, wind, and can the other person hear you well? The SGB3Pro are truly fantastic, with near-perfect noise cancellation ENC. Is the in-ear comfort similar? Is the weight similar? The SGB3Pro are lightweight and very comfortable. Do the SL4Pro have similar gesture controls, pinch controls? Maybe they also have voice control? I'm not hating, but I don't agree with people who write only oohs and aahs. That's what only so-called fanboys write, or because they just bought these headphones, so they're the best. I personally think the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are good headphones: sound very good (I don't really like strong bass), ANC, ENC (great for calls), HearThrough, gesture control, voice control, wear app, lightweight, comfortable, ... But definitely, due to their disadvantages/bugs (link below), they can't be called flagship or high-end headphones. The biggest problems: Connecting to a PC, switching between devices, for God's sake, flagship headphones for 240 EUR (starting price) don't automatically switch from one device to another??? People have VERY BIG problems with charging (headphones probably can't handle with humidity, I haven't experienced this, but I also use different headphones at the gym). One guy described living in a humid climate and replacing three headphones, not using them for sports. Inductive charging heats up the headphones terribly (for those who don't know, high temperatures degrade batteries). This applies to charging with a Qi charger, not reverse charging from a phone. You have to place the case very carefully on the inductive charger, otherwise they won't charge (I tested on two chargers). And a minor problem, poorly designed, you have to rotate them when placing them in the case, and they're slippery, so they can easily fall out.

I have SGB3Pro. I don't have the Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro, but from what @[Bronybojiiii](https://www.reddit.com/user/Bronyboiiiii/) wrote, they don't perform well in strong winds. I was on a call in very strong wind, it was blowing right in my face, and the caller heard me very good, not the wind at all. Similarly, with a drill or a kitchen mixer running, the caller hear me vell. There's a slight delay when I start talking after silence, and a slight static noise comes through, but during a continuous conversation, nothing comes through. The only headphones that were so good for calls even in strong winds were Jabra, but I don't know which model: Wave, Motion, or Storm. But that's a different story and the microphone is close to the mouth.

Maybe that's the problem. Mine don't have any gaps. I haven't bathed with them and I don't use them for exercise, I have other ones, more comfortable, over-the-ear. They're supposedly IPX57. There's a YouTube video where the guy says the electronics in the case are coated with a water-resistant coating, but he didn't say the same about the headphones. He dismantled them completely. I guess Samsung didn't forget to cover the headphones with water-resistant coating as well. People have reported that Samsung wanted to pay for repairs after they discovered water damage, but others also replaced them with new ones. You can look in my comments. A guy from a humid climate, probably Singapore, after three replacements, opened a new box at the Samsung store and demonstrated the charging problem after a moment on the street. Can you believe it??? Yes, Samsung didn't do a good job. They don't have the same engineers they used to. Now they're just screwing everything up, quickly, for profit 🤦🏻‍♂️ They would be the best headphones on the market if they didn't have the following issues: moisture problems (charging, sound degradation), connectivity issues (PC, multipoint, switching between devices, etc.), Qi charging (significant heating - disqualifying, you have to surgically hit the charging slot), and ergonomics (poorly designed, you have to rotate them to put them in the case). Samsung at the beginning sold them for \~250EUR !!!

test and let us know if Samsung will fix the bugs from the Galacy Buds 3 Pro version: >I personally think the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are good headphones: sound very good (I don't really like strong bass), ANC, ENC (great for calls), HearThrough, gesture control, voice control, wear app, lightweight, comfortable, ... >But definitely, due to their disadvantages/bugs (link below), they can't be called flagship or high-end headphones. >The biggest problems: >Connecting to a PC, switching between devices, for God's sake, flagship headphones for 240 EUR (starting price) don't automatically switch from one device to another??? >People have VERY BIG problems with charging (headphones probably can't handle with humidity, I haven't experienced this, but I also use different headphones at the gym).

I use the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. If u have a late model Galaxy, these are the best choice imo. I have an S24 Ultra, and all the features they bring with them are great. Their ambient mode is on par if not better than the latest Ipods Pro. ANC is great as well. I wouldn't say it's the best on the market, but it's definitely good. Sound is definitely up there. I had Sennheiser MTW3's a while back, which sounded amazing, and these sound almost identical. I got lucky and picked up a brand new sealed set locally from FB Marketplace for only $150 from somebody that got them in the last promo for free when buying the ZFold 6.

Galaxy bud pro 3 and jabra elite gen 1 amazing for call quality while doing gym training session.

bit more on the pricy side but the Sammy Buds 3 Pro fit in my tiny ears very snug and don't move around much. also just a great pair of earbuds all around in my experience, and bonus points if you use a Samsung phone and can take advantage of all the features on them

I use the Realme pro 7, I'm going to simplify these names, they're ridiculously long, and it's very good. In terms of sound, it is slightly superior to the OnePlus Pro 3 and also the 4. HOWEVER, these two Oneplus models have a small advantage: their plastic is less slippery in sweaty situations, I know because I tested it on intense walks; As I like the Realme a little more, I was forced to use liquid silicone tips on it, I used the Angelears model and the EPZ M100, both of which don't fit in the case so I have to take them off at the end of each daily workout. The Samsung Buds Pro 3 is also a very good fit, but much more expensive.

I washed my Buds 2 by accident and tried everything on the market. Even the Buds 3 Pro which were too warm like most buds. Blind ordered the Buds 2 Pro without testing, no regrets

I never daily drove anything until I got the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. Either they're finally good enough or I never got the eartip size right on other buds, but this is the only pair that has really stuck with me

OK. I hate apple. My kids begged for phones when we got them phones, and part of that is needing to monitor their usage, which requires an apple device. I didn't really want a tablet at that time and I needed a phone so I got an phone 14pm. So. I loved my android phone and me husband's 25 is pretty darn slick. I tried a bunch of earphones/buds. I have a pair of pro 2s and they are the best of the bunch with the 14pm. If I had a Samsung there's a few gas are pretty good but none. The bose were super comfortable. I do like his Samsung buds, although they are a few gens old now so I'm not going to speak to their noise canceling. I get weirdness from most noise canceling tech. The pro 2 does not make me nauseous, or dizzy. I do get some vertigo if I remove one from my head, but it usually is short lived. So I'd definitely go with the airpods.

I have the buds pro 3. They are amazing. You can read the reviews, this is the first time where samsung buds are competing for no.1 title in tws category. The buds pro 3 are everything and more. They're honestly worth the price. The noise cancelation is better than airpods pro 2, transparency can be better, but sound quality is much better. The fit is awkward if you have big ears but fine with medium and small. Ps don't buy the base buds buds 3 they're HOT garbage.

Hell no, get the buds FE instead I've been using them for 2+ yrs, absolute tanks. I use them 10hrs a week while running or at the gym, amazing earbuds. Best part is they're only $50 I just returned a pair of the pro 3's, felt like a cheap gimmick in comparison and not good for workouts at all. I can not speak upon the active noise canceling ability or the noise pass through ability, these tend to give me a headache so I only ever use my earbuds with these abilities disabled.

Bose gives really good vocal clarity which makes ppl which makes them sound clear to us non audiophiles. But overall package buds 3 pro way better.

You're correct in theory. Bluetooth will lose some information just by the laws of physics but LDAC in my opinion is 99.9% of the way there. To my ears, it sounds better than using IEM's with a dongle DAC, but a lot of it is subjective. But if you're just using a standard pair of Bluetooth headphones, using a codec like SBS or even AptX its obviously not gonna be lossless, but just listening to the lossless file on apple music, tidal or amazon HD will still sound better than spotify or a standard mp3, ogg or other lossy file type. The galaxy buds pro 3, when paired with a Samsung phone do some type of transcoding voodoo on the fly and claim to be capable of 24bit / 96kHz lossless audio. They sound great to me but I still prefer LDAC with the sony XM-5 earbuds. I think the memory foam tips have something to do with it and better noise isolation overall. I'm sure its been said but there's been studies done and the average person cant tell the difference between a CD quality recording and a 320kbps mp3 but I still think I can hear a slight bump in quality listening to a flac file from my phone vs a lossless apple music file. Theres so much subjectivity and different variables that go into it and I don't believe its as simple as DACS always sound better. For example, would using a DAC on a 320 kbps mp3 sound better than listening to a FLAC file with a pair of standard Bluetooth headphones using the SBS codec? I don't know but

I mainly use my Sennheiser Momentum 4s. I prefer their sound quality a bit more over my  XM5s, although I feel like the noise cancellation is better on the Sony buds. Picked up the Galaxy Buds3 Pro with Samsung credits to compare to both

If ur going for an easy to use and carry around headphones, the buds 3 pro is a great choice since it works seamlessly while using multiple samsung devices and its small. The xm5's are better though, and are a great choice. They are 2 times the price but are definitely worth it. But wait for the xm6s to be in stock they just came out! I would buy both if you can

I've had the Galaxy Buds Pro 3 since launch. A lot of improvements have been made throughout, but it's been unusual to see any real world "reviews" post-launch and so I thought I'd share an updated review of some sort since there were some production issues that sort of tainted the launch. In the firmware updates, ANC issues, white noise, etc were fixed - more on this later. I'm just a small time tech enthusiast, so small that I don't even have a youtube channel or anything. But in the past few months I've really enjoyed using the Buds 3 pro and wanted to answer some questions since a lot of new posts here have been asking if it's worth it. Before we get started, I want to say that I have been using this with my Samsung devices - Fold 5, now 6, Tab S9, Galaxy Watch 7 - so your experiences may differ if you're using these with other non-Samsung/Android/Apple devices. As with using any new earbuds, which I personally have far too many that it's a bit embarrassing to admit, I always check my fitment. Most people overlook this because everyone thinks that audio devices are about sound quality, but you'll find in this review that it is so much more than just how it sounds. If the earphones don't fit you properly, the sound isn't being delivered to you the way it was intended by the engineers of the headphones. The first thing I do is check for how the different size tips fit into my ears. When I feel like I'm using the right ones, the Samsung Wear has a "Earbud fit test" under "sound quality and effects" to do a check via it's software. After it's been established that the fitment is good, I went into my phone's "adapt sound" under "hearing enhancements" menu to fine tune as typically different Samsung earbuds have a slightly different sound profile. For me personally, I only missed one tone that the software then has to boost for me to hear it clearly - versus the Buds Pro 2 where I missed 4-5. Since sound quality is where most consumers feel like is the most important, I'll start here so that if you don't don't want to read more, you can skip the rest. Samsung did a lot of advertising for these earbuds, with one of the features being high quality lossless where it supports 24bit/96khz. This is very much a marketing gimmick especially when it comes to streaming music or listening to the old downloaded mp3s that you got from Napster. With that said, the sound quality is great but the lossless codecs don't actually transfer the full bitrate. If you currently own the Buds 2 Pro, you'll probably find the bass to be a little stronger but it's also hard to tell the difference if you listen to the Buds 2 Pro and the Buds 3 Pro back to back. FWIW, the Buds 2 Pro also supports SSC (Samsung Seamless Codec). If you're on the original buds Pro, those do NOT support SSC - so the sound quality is definitely better on these Buds 3 Pro than the OG Buds Pro. The sound stage is also much wider and the 360 audio is much less gimmicky since you can turn off head tracking now. If you're pairing the Buds 3 pro with the Galaxy Watch 7, you'll find that SSC is supported and you'll continue to be able to use this on the go without your phone. With all that said, audio is great and is comparable to other top ANC BT earbuds on the market. With audio quality out of the way, I'm going to talk about the things I don't like. The first being white noise - it's extremely noticeable the closer you are to the source of the sound. For example, if I have a noise machine next to me for white noise during bedtime, the hissing on the earbud closer to the noise machine is just terrible regardless of what ANC setting I have on. I've seen a lot of reviews and other users saying that the hissing is less noticeable at level 3-4 instead of 5, but I didn't find this to be true for my own use. My Buds Pro and Buds 2 Pro didn't have this hissing white noise, but I normally don't hear this unless the source of the sound is very close to me. With that said, ANC quality is quite good and most of the time I don't hear the hissing at all - but I thought I'd mention this because at times it does bother me. The second thing I don't like is the battery life. Samsung advertised these as 6 hours of playback with ANC on, but I'm getting closer to 4.5-5 hours. I almost wonder if they released these figures when the buds are being used without other software (more on this later) features. The fast charging works quite well though. I'd get down to 10% and it jump to 30% in about 5 minutes - literally just a quick bathroom break. The case itself seems to hold maybe 4 charges for both buds, or roughly 8 charges if you tend to only use one side at a time. Charging the case is easy though - it supports wireless charging and has a USB-C port on the bottom. The third thing I don't like is that I need the case in order to pair. The Buds Pro and Buds 2 Pro both could pair by holding down the touchpad themselves, but I need the button on the charging case to pair the Buds 3 Pro. Not sure what happened to this feature but it's much easier being able to pair the buds when they're out of the case and in my ears than to throw the buds into a charging case then have to hold a button on the case to pair. Some of my favorite features with the buds 3 pro that separate them from previous buds were things that I thought would be a gimmick but it actually works in real-world use. Starting with the voice control - this doesn't require Bixby and it's very responsive. For example, I'm doing dishes and both hands are wet - then a song comes on and I don't like it. I could just say "next song" out of the blue and it'll skip. I could, of course, still use Google Assistant or Gemini to play other videos on youtube without touching my phone or buds using "OK Google", but just saying the command has been pretty easy to use and it's definitely proven to be useful. Previously without the "blade design," the Buds Pro and Buds 2 pro couldn't really be operated with a single bud. The user previously had to tap the left side to vol down but couldn't vol up without tapping the right side. I mostly got used to that, but being able to have volume control, ANC control, etc with just one bud makes it so much easier for one ear use. This seems to be extra useful when I'm on a phone call and need to change the volume by swiping the blade - that way I don't risk accidentally tapping the touchpad and ending the call like I did with the older Buds. And while we're on the topic of phone calls -- oh boy, this is probably the best reason to upgrade if you're someone who talks on the phone a lot. The software noise cancellation (at least paired with a Samsung device) makes it sound like I'm in a quiet room when I'm driving down the freeway. The mics are very clear and I think that this is probably the biggest reason for the "blades"/stems to come back. The audio quality doesn't seem as good when paired with non-Samsung devices though - for example, Zoom calls and/or Teams calls do not seem to have that type of noise suppression of my background. If you're someone who talks on the phone a lot, the mics and noise suppression makes this a much better use than the Buds Pro or the Buds 2 Pro by a fair margin. Another feature that I like are the LEDs on the blades. With the previous buds, they were sort of sitting inside the ear that people don't realize I'm using buds. I'd be on a call in an elevator and someone new walks in.. I'd talk, they'd think I'm talking to them, then I'd have to point at my ears to show them I'm on the phone. The Buds 3 Pro doesn't have that since I just leave the LEDs on and they're noticeable enough that people know I'm not talking to them. It saves me from those awkward moments. In Samsung's ads, they promoted the "Adaptive" mode a lot where it allows ambient noise and uses ANC when it detects background noise. This sounded gimmicky but I wasn't sure how it'd work, but I am now finding that this mode works really well. I use my Buds 3 Pro a lot in the office in this mode. It is smart enough to block out the HVAC fan above my seat in the office but doesn't block out people talking so that I can quickly engage in a conversation with them. Sometimes the ANC mode takes a while to kick in, so you'll notice that the sound from the water faucet start to fade away midway into hand washing but it isn't instant. With the Buds 3 Pro being so comfortable to wear and with the adaptive mode working so well, the battery life became an issue especially since I don't ever want to take it off. Normally 5 hours of use a day would be more than enough but I've literally tried to keep it in my ears all work day and wished the battery life could improve. With that said, I've sometimes just used one bud to extend the life of these so that one bud is constantly charging. Last but not least, another feature I thought was surprising is that the buds INSIDE the case could be located through Samsung Find. In previous generations of the Buds, once you close the case and forget where you left it - that's it.. you just keep digging until you find it. With the Buds 3 Pro even when they're off and charging in the case, the case throws out an ultrawide band signal every 2.5 minutes so that if you have a phone with ultrawide band support, you could find the case. It does take a while to find though since the signal is only thrown out once every 2.5 minutes, but it works very well. I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I've had to use this feature quite a few times now. Hopefully this helps you with your purchase decisions. Happy holidays! If you're gonna shop with Samsung.com, I hear there's Rakuten discounts. I don't use those but I used a Samsung referral code ref-d8zq4r - I think these only work in the US and with new accounts for ordering. You could order with a new account but certainly register the buds or whatever other device with your regular Samsung account. :)

If you want the best earbuds for your ears, be prepared to return them and try them out. Because ANC is only as good as the fit to your ear. That's why you'll see a lot of mixed reviews on buds because they just don't fit some people very well. With that caveat out of the way, I work in a machine shop that has VERY loud noises at all different frequencies high and low. I've had earbuds from 5+ main brands. Some have faults, for example the buds 3 pro from Samsung. If you use an air compressor to blow things, it'll it'll make a crackling popping breaking sound in the earbud as the ANC fails. The Sony xm3 xm4 and xm5s are the only one's I know that pass that test for me. So I exclusively buy those since they seemingly block out more sound at higher frequencies.

I personally think Samsung buds 3 pro is better. The sound quality of both isn't much different in my view, but Samsung buds 3 pro offers higher comfort

My recommendation is Samsung Galaxy pro 3 I have them they are really good you can check them https://recogoods.com/samsung-galaxy-buds-3-pro-ai-optimised-sound-elite-anc/

I used Soundcore before but they are not as good as Samsung pro3

I had this model. They were super comfortable, sound was great, ANC great. Controls comfortable. But after some time there was issue with one bud battery dying too fast and I returned them. I learned that this was fault of that particular model, in theory they fixed it with software but I couldn't confirm it as my unit was already damaged. Now I got galaxy buds 3 pro and I'm not that happy with them. It feels like I have to push hard to make buds stay inside my ear,  and plastic bud shape hurts my ears. I hope my ears will get used to it. I also hope Sony releases new buds that are identical to XM4.

I have the Samsung Galaxy Earbuds Pro 3 and it wouldn't even make it anywhere in that list. Compared to Jabra line ups, the battery is terrible. It runs out of battery quickly making it a hassle. The audio and ANC is just okay. At the price it is not worth it. Jabra does a way better job. Not a fan of Apple's even thought people say it's good, their ecosystem is tight. Jabra are no longer making theirs. Leaves me with Sony WF-1000XM5. Is their eartip good though? I don't like Apple's because it feels like it can easily fall out and I want an eartip that is secured so I am assured. Jabra's one, it kept on falling. Samsung's it's alright

I can honestly imagine that. I have the GB3P and find them underwhelming in most areas. Call quality is fairly good though b

What kind of sound you like? I have Ear and my bf have Buds 3 Pro. Ear are much much superior in terms of sound especially if you love bass. Anc and transparency are better in buds

I did like them but they always had a loose fit, then all the above goes down hill. The stem was also just so big, and the touch/slide/pinch functions were more trouble than helpful. Many like these, even the chart I shared was the guys #1, but they weren’t for me.

Hey I bought them last month for just 11k from Ajio, to be precise for Rs 10.6k after card cashback. Check other places for better deals.

Since you have already bought a pair you should not think about it anymore. Also, I have a samsung eco-system so I blindly went for buds 3 pro after I lost my buds 2.

If I could go back when I bought the gbp3 and moved my finger to the "buy now" on Sony instead... I would. I don't know if that tells you much, but that's what I would do.

Unfortunately, I'm one of the thousands of people that have the right bud charging defect. I've had issues with ear fit and ANC since I've got them too. The issues definitely don't apply to everyone who has them though. If it wasn't for these id be incredibly happy with all the other cool stuff that comes with gbp3s. Voice commands are a huge QoL when doing cardio and the slide volume up/down feels really slick. I just can't get passed how I had to purchase $40-50 worth of third party tips until I found some that fit well enough to keep them from falling out. I have no experience with the Sony buds, but the negative reviews don't even come remotely close to what I've experienced with my gbp3s.

When all said and done with trading in old buds and another discount they were giving I ended up paying $89 final price. It came with a case to cover the case as well. Not a bad deal but the only thing I'll say is I wish it included different size earbuds the ones that come with it are too small and I feel they slip out often. I had to purchase the other sizes separately. Also does anyone else notice feedback/screeching when try to handle the headphones while they are on? Just trying to adjust them in the ear or picking them up while on you get the feedback.

Airpods are goat. I'm on a S25 ultra. Galaxy buds pro 3 suck for anc. Miss my airpods.

Ngl I love my buds 3 pros. For reference I've used bose qc and qc pro earbuds. The expensive sony buds. Nothing ear buds (most recent). Bose nc700 and sony xm4 over ears. Buds 3 pro take the cake wirh comfort, fit, accessibility, settings, and sound profile. Dual drivers with more codecs were big upgrades.

Galaxy buds 3 pro destroy these

Tested both, the airpods ain't better at all. I also use galaxy, so it's the best for me. Anc is top tier on the pro 3. Those who say otherwise have terrible fit

Samsung galaxy buds 3 pro and nothing ear 2

EarFuns have much better anc than Galaxy buds 3 pro, sound quality isn’t as good but it’s still pretty good for the price, transparency mode was pretty useless for me on the earfuns if that matters to you

I "like" the sound quality but I absolutely HATE all the Galaxy buds BESIDES the FE. Why? I shove them in the DEEPEST DARKEST CREVICE OF MY EARDRUM... and the damn things KEEP FALLING OUT!!! No matter what I do. The FE has the wingtips on the end and they literally can never fall out, no matter what I do. The Buds 3 Pro? I just barely move my jaw, I talk, I slightly move, they eventually wiggle their way out. I am so over it. I love these damn things so much but I can't for the life of me, with the different kinds of tips I've bought, ever get these things to stay in. I've even bought custom ones. My head agitates me to hell because I am sure not many people have this problem besides my maybe stupidly-shaped head or whatever the hell it is.

I have had mine for about a week now and I have a completely different take. Sound quality is amazing for ear buds, rich deep bass, crystal clear trebble. The case is my favorite part of the buds, seems super premium. The controls on the stems are the best part, sliding up and down controls volume, easy to pinch for more control. ANC is fantastic and ambient mode is terrific. Best buds I've ever used.

Formatted correctly https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxybuds/s/9leP06VCQ3 Hey everyone, I wanted to share my thoughts on the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro that I've been using for almost a week now. Overall, I'm really impressed! Here are some of the things I like most: * Clear redesigned case: You can easily check if the earbuds are in the case even if it's closed. * Lighter weight: The redesigned buds feel lighter since they touch less of your ear, more of the mass is hanging in the stem. * Improved sound quality: Compared Galaxy Buds 2, the bass and mids are improved, and the ANC is more powerful, especially in the lows * Bluetooth pairing button on the case: Makes it easy to use with more non- Samsung devices * Advanced voice controls: There are voice controls for volume, playback, and more that work instantly without needing a wake word. These are reliable and work in loud environments. Plus they work instantly. * Redesigned touch controls: More precise and easier to use than the previous generation. A few things to keep in mind: * Side sleeping: The buds are impossible for side sleepers due to the stem design. The outside of the buds is essentially a triangle. That means, when you are against a pillow/mattress, it's like having an upside down triangle balance on a flat surface. It doesn't work, it's uncomfortable, and they will get pushed up. * Limited light customization: The light bar effects are limited and cannot be turned on through the app. But you can turn them off Why? Also, the lights are bright enough to be seen by others in public. They also photograph quite nicely * Adaptive mode: I found Adaptive mode is a gimmick. I would disable associated features (ambulance awearness) since it has a lot of false positives. Feel free to ask any questions you have about my experience in the comments below! * Find My improvements: we all know find my sucks on Buds Pro 2, and lower. It has been improved! I don't want to call it "good" per say. Since it lacks UWB, and case speaker of Airpods Pro 2. But it is at an *almost* acceptable place. These successfully where able to be tracked several times, even using Smarttthings find network. Plus they have "lost mode" so the buds lock to your samsung account. Also, when you ping your buds, they light up (and you can see this light if they are in the case!) Edit: Samsung provided me with the buds

I qould recommend them the voice controls are stellar, and it's a habit you build. I find myself saying "volume up" and being disappointed when my other headphones don't raise the volume

Yeah, transparency mode is better. ANC, I feel is mixed.

Finally, someone asked about it! The case is amazing. The hinge is magnetized completely. It's even better than the airpods. The airpods lid flops between the open and closed positions. While the Galaxy Buds case has some magnetized resistance, snapping open with assertiveness. Unfortunately, the silver plastic shows scratches super easily. And it's scratched easily. The clear plastic part seems as durable as plastic can get. And the tint keeps it looking clean

Hi OC, samsung uses a proprietary codeec to minimize latency and support high res audio. I am sensitive to latency, but I don't really notice it with samsung buds paired with samsung products. That being said they have a gaming mode, that is supposed to further minimize latency mode. They also have dual amps (whatever that means) that should reduce Bluetooth hiccups. The only mobile game I play is Plants vs Zombies

Sure. Phone calls are definitely better on 3 pro. But, I am seeing buds 2 pro for under $75. I never owned buds 1 pro, but based off the feature list, buds 3 pro are much more of an upgrade than buds 2 pro are from buds 1 pro. Personally, after owing a product for a long time, I would want to upgrade to the latest and greatest samsung has to offer. And I would go for the buds 3 pro. But, if you want to save (a lot of) money, go with buds 2 pro. Especially if you are a side sleeper. Now, if you workout, I would go with the buds 3 pro

Well, like I don't think it's worse. But in some situations I get a what feels like higher pitched white noise. Like tv static, but I didn't habe this issue on my buds 2 pro. On one hand, it feels like it could be because the lows are much more suppressed. But on the other, when anc is on I am listening to something that doesn't exist in the real world. And I know how ANC works, but this wasn't an issue with the 2 pro

I had qc earbuds that I returned after 3 exchanges bc they stopped working, great sound, terrible engineering. Got buds 3 pros, noise canceling is better, except for high pitched sounds which leak through a little.

I have Airpods Pro 2s and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and both are excellent at noise cancellation. Airpods are a little less "harsh" with the noise cancellation effect out of the box but the Galaxy Buds obviously have more features to reduce the strength of it in the wear app which is what I had to do. But honestly I just leave both on adaptive and that works with 99% of instances where I want noise cancellation

If you want to prioritize voice isolation for calls, the Huawei Freebuds Pro 4 (and 3 which are known to be pretty close to the 4s in voice isolation) are class leading, period. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2Tyw8TCq9U (I own several of the major flagships that would be competitive here, the Huawei Freebuds Pro 4, Apple Airpods Pro 2, AZ100, Galaxy Buds2 Pro, Galaxy Buds3 Pro, and EPOS Adept E1) And see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUgPW7MRfS8 These have stems, but the stem design tends to have better voice isolation because it can position the mic closer and towards your mouth.

You'll want to check out these two channels that focus on voice quality and voice isolation (and not just ANC): * Weekend Gear Guide https://youtu.be/rUgPW7MRfS8?t=404 * Aaron X Loud and Wireless https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uee8M8jEpV4 In short, if money is no object, (and I've tested several high end earbuds myself including the JBL Tour Pro 3, Galaxy Buds Pro 2 and 3, AZ100, ADAPT E1) I think the best earbuds with noise rejection (wind and otherwise) are the Huawei Freebuds Pro 3 or Pro 4.

Galaxy buds 3 pro. I can set them to have ambient sound, the quality is great, I can control my music in so many ways on the buds themselves, they can handle some rain, and for me they don't fall out. I tried my partners shokz openrun and absolutely hated them. I couldn't use them to skip songs so I had to pull up Spotify on my watch, which just seemed dangerous and also meant I had to switch between that and Strava. Also, the quality was not good, which I expected, but I couldn't hear anything more than I can with my Galaxy buds with ambient noise on. If these buds die I will absolutely buy another pair I like them so much.

Buds 3 Pro but with custom tips that fit your ear. I've had all the Samsung buds and the quality improves from each iteration. I recently jumped from 2 pro to 3 pro and there is definitely better sound quality and ANC, especially with better fitting interchangable tips.

I got both, and use both. 3 pros have slightly better anc. Comfort is good. I looove the volume touch slider, miss them when I use the 2s 2 pro had better comfort for when I sleep on my side, more rounded

After purchasing the Samsung Buds 3 Pro, I'm returning them because they're too big. Annoyingly, with the smallest pieces in the right one stays in fine, but the left one constantly falls out, so I guess my left ear is smaller than my right? Maybe it's because I was a 1 headphone user for like my entire teen years so the one on the right got used to buds? Idk. Anyways, either way, I was thinking about going with the Buds 2 Pro (because PURPLE) and people here are saying they're good. As someone who used to have airpods (I don't remember the version, but I do know they were NOT Pro and this was in like 2019 ish), the airport were really uncomfortable and I had to keep pushing them back in. Does anyone here know if the Buds 2 Pro are smaller than those airpods and/or the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro?

I have the same totally worth the money

Samsung Buds 2 Pro beat their Buds 3 Pro in every area for me- sound, ANC, and comfort. Otherwise I think you are right on.

It's not worse. Overall the ANC is much better.

I absolutely hate them. If I wanted Airpods I would have bought Airpods. I hate that they took away the tap gestures and made it a button. Everytime I push the button I end up pulling the earpiece out. I switched back to my Buds Pro 2. These are a downgrade from even the Buds Pro. I'm happy to return them. Plus, I can't even wear them in my motorcycle helmet anymore. Why did they put the side dongle on them?! Trash. Oh, and the case is so much bigger that the Buds Pro and it sucks trying to wrestle them in place.

I bought exactly these, i was sceptical as well, but they are genuine, working great, love it so far

I can't speak for the XM5's, but I've had the Samsung Galaxy buds 3 Pro for about 6 months now. They are equally the best earbuds I've ever used and the most frustrating ones I've ever used, and I've used probably 15 different pairs over the years. Sound quality is fantastic, ultra clear vocals, pretty good bass especially if you tune the EQ. These definitely prioritize balance, bright vocals, and great instrument separation. I'd imagine the XM5's sound profile leans toward more bass heavy from other sony headphones/earbuds I've used. Noise canceling is great, but I'd imagine the XM5's have better NC, because they have some of the best in the industry. However, transparency mode on the buds 3 pro is second to none. If you turn transparency mode on, it's easy to forget the buds are in your ears. I'd imagine on Par or better than airpods. Definitely the most natural sounding transparency mode I've ever used by far. Lastly, one of the features that I can't live without anymore is voice controls for turning volume up, down, skipping tracks, pausing music, Etc with only your voice. Absolutely amazing if you don't want to bother with opening your phone or touching your earbuds at all. All you have to say is "stop music", "volume up" or "next song" etc. and the earbuds instantly react to your voice. Amazing for working with gloves on, or if you've got something In your hands, lifting weights, etc. Game changer. With all that being said, I've had the most issues with these earbuds and I have with any other pair I've owned. I'm now on my third pair of these things, having sent them back twice because one bud or both will not charge properly in the case. This is a pretty well documented issue, and Samsung refuses to make it an easy process to get them replaced. Also, they definitely don't have the advertised battery life that they claim. It seems like I can get about 5 hours of play time before they are on 10% need to be charged. At that point, you'll be dealing with the constant reminder of a low battery notification in your ears. So, if you end up getting the buds 3 Pro and you get an actual good functioning pair right out of the box they'll probably be the best earbuds you've ever used, but definitely keep those frustrating parts in mind.

While the XM5 has a really beautiful sound, I found it (1) really hard to find the spot in my ear when I knew it was "in" and (2) the glossy nature felt slippery taking in and out. Otherwise zero complaints, great headphones. The Technics AZ80 (and even AZ60s) are fantastic. The latter if price is an issue. A little larger than expected but like a butter in the ear and you forget about the size quickly. Sound is superb. Case is larger than the XM5 but not unmanageable. These are my recent favorites. Buds Pro 3 if you use Samsung ecosystem are excellent too.

Hello, considering I read almost nothing good about the buds 3 pro, I thought I'd chip in with my thoughts, which are pretty good to be honest. Firstly I have a S25 Ultra, so I use it with high res audio. Although I'm not a professional audio man, but I've owned some decent headphones and earbuds. The music coming from the buds is amazing for me, the EQ is mega adjustable, and they just sound brilliant to be honest. Noise cancelling is crazy good, I work at a main London airport and when I walk through the terminal I can't hear anything, no people of which there are hundreds chatting away, and when I'm walking next to the satellite where the planes park, I can't hear them revving up there engines to park up, which is extremely loud and we are required to use ear defenders, granted all this is with music on between 30-50% volume. I haven't tested but I have no need, you could probably hear it slightly with them in and no music, but they definitely do a great job! Ambient noise is flipping good too, when active I can hear all cars and airport vehicles coming, like I had no headphones on, even with music playing, although making out talking is possible, but slightly difficult, so I tend to pause the music and chat away, with them in and i genuinely would think they aren't in at this point. Touch and voice controls are next level, touch controls are so simple and easy to use on the stems, I had trouble with my soundcore (stems) and buds pro v1 (no stems). I even had troubles with my Sony Wh xm4 over ear headphones, but damn these are so simple and work every time. Voice controls are also game changer, often il have my hands full and need to stop the music to talk to someone, and then start again, all without unloading my hands, obviously you can adjust volume this way too. Briliant to be honest. My only bad point, which isn't too bad in my opinion, is when I'm on a call, with ambient sound on, I do get a crack or pop sound every now and then, not toooooo often, but it happens, again for me not a deal breaker, I am yet to experience popping with music on ambient or noise cancelling mode. Sometimes getting them back in the case can be abit finicky as the stems are triangle shaped rather then round so hard to twist in the fingers to get to the opposite orientation. Would I recommend, yes absolutely. My choices were buds 3 pro to go with the s25 or the Sony xm5 buds, ultimately the buds went on sale half price for £110 and that made the decision for me, and to be honest I'm glad I did, I love Sony and there products, but with the xm5 I assume I would have had to use my phone to do anything like adjust volume or sound modes, as with the buds I always struggled myself with controls on such a small bud type design.

It depends what matters to you feature wise. I prefer battery life and fast adaptive noise cancellation so I've decided to continue to use my AirPods Pro 2 with my S24u until the next release of something. Its also nice the AP case has a speaker so you can audibly hear if there was a problem charging so you can clean the tip and reinsert it. On the buds pro 3 you'll never know and may have 1 or both buds dead when you want to use it again. Plus they are awkward to get in and out of the case without having to look and focus on finger placement. I manage my EQ through Poweramp Equalizer that runs as a service and sometimes Wavelet which are both significantly better than the buds pro 3 EQ adjustments and applies to anything I connect to my phone. If you're anti-Apple I'd say a good runner up is the Sony WF1000XM5. There are better options above that but puts you in the $300 - $499 range. Go for the Samsung buds if you want lost/left behind alerts with Android, Gemini support / notifications read aloud and best microphone quality. But just know its 4.5 hours of battery with any ANC mode, the case easily scratches and the buds/case will randomly drain on its own and not charge correctly.

To me, it doesn’t really matter which one you pick — the Sony or the Bose. They’re almost the same, and the rest is just small details. What really matters is how you use them and for what purpose. I personally bought both Sony and Bose, because I work in Africa, and if one fails, I don’t have the option to quickly buy another here. And instead of buying two similar models I went with two different ones, for a change. These were meant to replace my Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. My honest advice: never buy those Ssmsung buds, if you’re on Android. They’re excellent when paired with Samsung devices, but after one year I started having problems. One Bud stopped charging properly — if it doesn’t sit perfectly on the charger, you’ll find it dead when you need it. Annoying to check if it started charging once I put them in a case. On top of that, they started dropping the connection. Sometimes people literally stop hearing me for a few seconds during calls, which is very annoying. They dont last long either, just about 4 hours and half.

Yep spot on - The Buds 3 Pro are excellent indeed. just wish they had true multipoint then they would be close to perfect!

yes thats right they will seamless switch if you are all in on the samsung ecosystem but its not even close to true multipoint. If samsung just supported the standard then you wouldnt even need to the seamless switch as android does have audio switching as a standard as well.

Jbl tour pro 3, galaxy buds 3 pro and technics az100

Galaxy buds 3 pro would be the best out of those listed and better sounding than the 5 pro

I would say galaxy buds 3 pro

That does help a lot as with the apply only features your limited to Beats or airpods. But if you just want good ANC sound and calling. You have a few options: 1: Galaxy buds pro 3 got them my self and got really good sound and calling quality and features but while the ANC is not bad at all its not the best 2:Sony WF-1000XM5 also good quality sound some say it is better than the Galaxy buds others say it isn't so hard to say for sure, as for the ANC it is for sure the best for earbuds and the Calling quality is not as good as the Galaxy buds it is not bad and everyone will be able to hear you. 3: JBL Reflect Aero TWS these are have wings just like the earbuds you have now and rhey are the cheapest but the ANC and calling quality is quite good and comes quite close to the other earbuds and the sound quality is not bad at all and even really good but a bit on the bass heavy side as is normal with JBL. Also with all these earbuds they have there own app even for IOS so you can turn on or off features and change settings and even the EQ

I have to say that I feel really disappointed with my xm5. I have the wf-1000xm4 and wanted to buy the xm5 when my girlfriend got hers. They had a much smaller formfactor and that was enough for me. Everyone online said they were the best in business so I bought a pair used that were only two months old for around 160 dollars. Worst decision ever. They just cannot sit properly in the ear and I have to adjust them all the time and it's driving me insane. I've tried all the recommended eartips but it doesn't do any difference after a while. It's a real shame because the sound is amazing, hands down the best ones I've tried but that doesn't mean anything if the get loose from even yawning a bit. Going to try and sell them. I've also tried the Samsung buds3 pro since I have Samsung but gonna return them as well. Back to my clunky xm4...

Xm5 or xm6 over ear, buds 3 pro

From the sound tests I listened too, I preferred the buds3 pro. I also figured the functionality with the phone would be better, but not sure if thats true. The over ear however are excellent imo.

I got mines for $33 bucks when I bought my Galaxy Watch... super blown away. The quality, features and bass. It feels like I have a concert in my head. But I did come from some cheap Soundpeats headphones from Amazon.

I love my tws 4's for listening to music around the house or at lunch at work but i could just never get these to be comfortable enough for daily commutes or walking around earbuds even though the sound is incredible. I've actually found myself using my galaxy buds 3 pro for daily usage because they are just so dang comfortable and work great with my s23. The sound isnt quiiiiiite what the sennheisers can do but i'll trade the sound for the much better comfort and the million miles better microphone for phone calls. Outside of the buds 3 pro Ive found myself rotating between my sony xm5s and my nothing ears quite a bit lately. The bass on the nothings is fantastic and i really like the sound they can push out with heavier faster music like deathcore, gabber, hard techno and such. On days when i'm feeling more chill the sonys will have a bigger 'fuller' sound.

Between those two specifically I'd go for the nothing. The sound is miles above what the skullcandys have with comparable noise cancelling. But If you can stretch your budget by another 20 bucks or so i would strongly recommend going for the Nothing Ear 2024s, amazon has them for about 120 and these things are fantastic. Absolutely amazing sound quality for the price after doing the build in sound test, these can also be tuned to be little bass cannons if you want. Plus the mic is comparable to my galaxy buds 3 pro.

Obviously way too many Apple fanboys/girls. CMF (Nothing) Buds Pro 2 are amazing value under £100 and with a unique control wheel on the case. The app is also super clean with Dirac and Spatial audio, they would easily be in the top 10 for me at any price. Sony XM are great but have premature battery failure issues. Jabra Elites are excellent if spending over £50. Samsung Buds Pro 3 are excellent under £100 with cashback offers. OnePlus and Huawei also severely underrated.

Will checkout the OnePlus buds. I landed on the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. All round good. Only dislikes are they fall out. Purchased after market tips to make more secure. Only connects to one device at a time. Other than that, call quality is equal to or better than jabra. I have a Samsung s25 ultra and the integration is fantastic. Found they work just as good with my PC running the samsung wearables app.

I used Sony Linkbuds S until the battery issue killed them. I enjoyed then but couldn't justify buying Sony again after they died Shirley after 1 year of use. Now I've switched to the Samsung Buds3 Pro. The have been pretty good and are fairly comfortable. I got them for a really good price when I upgraded my Samsung Galaxy Watch.

Currently have the Sennheiser Momentum TW4, Sony XM5, Buds Pro 3 And Bowers and Wilkins Pi8. Sennheiser is the winner for me.

O cancelamento de ruído é terrivelmente ruim, você consegue ouvir pessoas falando alto constantemente mesmo com o ANC ligado

Galaxy buds 3 pro. They sound great when using HD audio on Samsung phones.

Galaxy Buds3 Pro. Sound quality is excellent and so is the ANC.

Hey have a listen to how significantly voice call quality is improved using Technic's new "Voice Focus AI" technology used on the Technics AZ100, vs the older "JustMyVoice" technology on the AZ80. [Technics AZ100 vs AZ80 vs HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4 vs 3 | Best Call Quality 2025 Review](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wc5crDGVVc) Simply mind blowing on how good "Voice Focus AI" handled Loud Dynamic Noise and Windy conditions!

If the occlusion bothers you on your HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 3, then you will not like the AZ100 since it's a bit worse. And until Bose improves their AI to silence background noise in loud crowded environments, I would stay away from the QC Ultra Earbuds 2nd Gen. So, it looks like the Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro are the best balance for calls for you. I think for most other people, the side tone and occlusion experience would be more than acceptable on the Technics AZ100/80 and above on my ranking list, and they will only notice it if really paying attention and comparing to Samsung, Bose, and Apple.

I've reviewed the Technics AZ100/80, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4/3 and Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro, and while the HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4 (and 3) are the absolute best for mic voice call quality in any noise environment, the Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro have better side tone balance and less occlusion. Here's my ranking of side tone (out of 10) and occlusion (out of 10) talking experience during phone calls: 1) Apple AirPods Pro 2nd Gen - 10 / 10 2) Bose QuietComfort - 9.5 / 9.5 3) Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro - 9 / 9 4) HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4 & 3 - 8 / 8 5) Technics AZ100 & 80 - 7.5 / 7.5 7) NOTHING ear - 7 / 6 6) JBL Tour Pro 3 - 6 / 6 Cheers!

>What made you put Bose above Freebuds? side tone (out of 10) and less occlusion (out of 10) talking experience is better on the Bose. This is the feeling you get like you are wearing earplugs, or you plug your ears with your fingers, and when you start talking, you can hear your own voice echo in your head. With Bose QC Ultra Earbuds, during a phone call, there is less occlusion than on HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 3/4. And also you can control the side tone on Bose through the App so you can get a sense how loud you are talking.

I just sent in my bud 3 pro's to Samsung for repair but I didn't want to be without buds for too long so I ordered some $50 Anker buds and they sound just as good as the Samsung earbuds to me.

Buds 3 pro have charging issues, ANC is crap, battery is crap. Xm5s have way better ANC, battery life is double and sound is way better. Sonys cost what they are worth. Buds 3 pro should only cost like 120. They are the only buds I've ever owned that I hate. Never charging when they are supposed to and the 4 hr battery life is unacceptable. Xm5s easy 8hrs.

My story with getting a pair of buds 3 pro with my S25U cost about 6 dollars. First day it had static on the left bud so I sent it in for repair. Got it back 2 weeks later. It still had issue so I sent it back to them. Then they decided to just give me a refund for MSRP $249.99, because it would take a while to get the parts to replace, and they didn't have inventory to send me. Unlucky/Lucky situation for me.

Honestly I've tried alot of headphones and the best in my opinion are the galaxy buds pro 3 only because I can take phone calls on the train or bus without anything being heard in the background. Currently no other headphones have matched this so far.

Galaxy buds 3 Pro and Pixel buds pro 2 as my backup

When I tell you, I argued with myself over which i should get..... ugh.. I went with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, but I did end up getting the Anker Soundcore Space One Pros, though.

I went through 2 pairs of Buds 3 pros they broke. But thankfully had warranty, since then using Buds FEs love them only flaw is no wireless charging.

And there were no buds 2? Very odd. I'd also wager since the buds 3 just came out they'd still be buggy here and there hence the negatives. Sometimes takes a few updates for it to be ironed out.

Samsung Buds3 Pro are the best, especially for Samsung phones. Sound quality, call quality in noisy environments is world-class & NC is awesome. I have all listed brands & Buds3 Pro stand way above any of them.

XM5 have excellent ANC and call quality is fine until the ambient noise levels reach 70 dB. Above that level they are unusable for calls as your voice will get robotic & scrambled. For Samsung I would recommend Buds2 Pro or Buds 3 Pro. I own Buds2 Pro & they are unrivaled in the calls department (only Buds3 Pro are better in noisy environments).

I own Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro & Samsung Buds3 Pro. When it comes to phone calls usability in noisy (80+ dB noise level) environments nothing comes close to Buds3 Pro. Samsung Buds2 Pro are usable at 80 dB but the other caller hears all ambient noises, with Buds3 Pro that ambient sound/noise is cancelled out. I could vacuum or steam clean rugs/carpet & hold normal phone conversation with Buds3 Pro.

In a quiet room both perform similarly.

I've tried both. The Sony xm5 has superior noose cancellation to the level where it gave me migraine (but i think that's just me lol). I have found. the Buds 3 pro are very comfortable but their noise cancelling is inferior to the Sony's. You'll not regert either tbh. It boils down to what you prefer.

Oh and contrary to others, my buds 3 pro never fell down during workout.

Galaxy pros 3 are by far the best imo on comfort but great sound

Get the Galaxy Buds Pro 3; I love them. They last for long periods of time; the microphone and sound quality are amazing, and they are water-resistant. I had the JBL Tour Pro 3s, and they gave me really bad tension headaches; they just aren't made for long-term comfort. So I got the Buds 3 and love them.

Personally for me yes they're alot more comfy and have better sound customization.

I haven't really tested them, but I've used them throughout a 24-hour period, and they hadn't died on me. I'd say with casual use they'd last days, and yes, I'd definitely recommend them if you're getting the S25 Ultra. I have the 24 Ultra, and the compatibility makes them 10 times better, especially the AI; it's a nice little touch.

Lol found this post and I'm literally in the same situation. Those buds have been the only ones to have ever stayed in my ear. I'm currently using Galaxy Buds Pro, but like I'm constantly just pushing them back into my ear. Haven't found a replacement tip that works any better. I was thinking maybe the new version (Galaxy buds 3 Pro) would fit better (they have a different design), but like I really wish there was a tip or way to have the ones I got work for my ears without falling out. Anyway if you ever figure out a good replacement wireless pair, let me know please. Unsure if I'll fork over the money for the version 3s (if they are going to slip out like these its a waste of money).

Buds 3 pro are amazing. Very comfortable and Samsung just released an update for them that makes sound so good!!

FE will definitely have best fit. Behind that is Likely Buds 3 Pro due to the better weight distribution and form factor.

Definitely not samsung earbuds 3. I didn't buy the pro version because of the cost, but my earbuds 3 randomly disconnects when there is no audio for a while, then reconnects itself after that. I've tried all the things that the support staff asked me to but just doesn't help.

There are 2 types of earbuds, one that goes into your ear canal and one that sits just outside your ear canal. The one that just sits outside the ear canal let's in more outside sound. Example the regular Samsung Buds 3 , Bose Ultra Open, Sony Float Run Open , Shokz OpenFit earbuds. Wired open ear buds are less common and u need to have a headphone jack. Open wired headphone for mobile use are ATH Ava-300, Koss Porta Pro.

confused with how many people disliked the change in design from the samsung buds 2 to the buds 3 that the 3's are 2 spots higher up that list.

For in-ear that I keep in my pocket, I go with the Samsung Buds3. Sometimes I'll take my Sony XM4 over the ear with me, but they usually stay in my home office.

I just tested the buds 3 from samsung, wow the fit is much better more compact and lighter. Sound on the earfun was great very bassy

I got a pair as well. Gonna be selling away the buds 3 that come with the phone.

Samsung Buds 3. Bought 3 pairs I enjoy them so much. They're the only buds that have a hands free feature where you can say commands without touching the buds and they respond. Also the audio and mic quality is great.

I have a pair of beats pro and samsung buds 3. I love the buds3 but dont like how hard it is to change the volume when I'm a waterfall of sweat. The beats pro are also great but has charging issues and sometimes wont charge a specific side. Buds3 will warn my phone if it isnt charging properly

Never going to buy sony again. Had wfxm4, whxm5 and cf500. Only the whxm5 can be used for calls and they arent great too. If im using wfxm4 and cf500 and a call gets in, i have to turn off the buds COZ THEIR CALL QUALITY IS FUCKING TRASH. the other side hears the breeze around me more significantly louder than my voice!! My samsung buds 3 works better than any of them

Im a mix/mastering engineer and prefer open earbuds and openback headphones for casual listening as they sound more like speakers/studio monitors. Out of the ones I tried the only open earbuds with acceptable sound quality/sound stage to me are the samsung buds 3

Pro 3 sound and are better, the 2 pro leak so much sound to the point were u have to have ur music at half volume so that the person next to you ain't hearing it. Sound quality wise, they both are amazing (tho the 3 pro have a lil bit more hmpf imo

For both sides then Airpods imo. Buds 2/3 pro are insanely good with Samsung devices tho, never try them on an Iphone so I can't comment.

I usually use my Samsung pros. I popped them in expecting to hear latency but they synced pretty well with the steam deck.

Galaxy buds are great until the vent clogs up so go with jbl or something

Oh yeah the new buds DO NOT fit my ears at all. I have a pair of old galaxy buds from like 2019 or something and they're perfect. When these go, I don't know what I'm going to do.

True lmao I have tried galaxy buds and they sound great but not worth the price. I have not tried to set the eq yet, maybe t3 pros will sound better once I fix my eq

Came here to say these. Sound is way better than Air pods, as a reference. I keep them in the car because I use them only for working out and if I just connect them once a week to my car charger on the way to the gym I never have issues.

I've tried some Galaxy Earbuds and they're fine once you put the helmet on but when you take off your helmet, it will hurt your ears. Especially if you have a very snug fitting helmet.

I personally like the Galaxy Buds best here with Nothing a close second. I haven't actually tried the freebuds 4 enough to comment however 

Galaxy buds +

No, not on aliexpress, but I am sure you can find some on your local marketplace they are amazing buds for money

If u have a samsung phone, u shud just get the galaxy buds for the samsung seamless codec.

Galaxy Buds. I usually wear a hair band around my head so I just cover my ears with them if I'm doing something super physical, but I usually have no issue with them. I wear only one when I'm driving or at my kiddos sporting events and two when I really want to zone out.

Out of these 4? Galaxy Buds if you have a Samsung phone. Otherwise either B&W Pi8s, Denon Perl Pro or Nothing Ear(2024).

Ditto. I used to buy the $40 ones and they'd last 6 months tops. Galaxy buds are worth the extra price

Nothing fit my ears before the conch piercings, the closest were the Galaxy Buds and the I found the Bose Open Ultra and they are great. No pain, no having on fall out.

Galaxy buds for casual listening. Aiaiai TMA-2 studio pro for production KZ ZS10 Pro 2 for performance in ears

I use my Samsung Galaxy Buds 👀

I recommend Samsung Galaxy Buds! Bought mine last last year ata and the battery life is still so good (Can last up to 4-5hours nonstop. The noise cancellation is also good and hindi siya madali mahulog (just choose the right tip size)

[This one po](https://s.shopee.ph/5VEJHbM7Rj) however, di siya official store so I’m not sure po if they are still producing it 🥹

Damn! Thanks man The thing is most of them are the shape of airpods 4 which I'm not comfortable with either. The earpods are so comfy. But the samsung buds are so good considering they're exactly like airpods 4 but 90$ less.

I switch between galaxy buds and bone conduction headphones depending on what activity Im doing and where I am

AirPods or galaxy pods 100%

If you have a samsung device/s go with the galaxy buds, otherwise go with liberty 4. Those are the ones ive tried.

My Samsung galaxy buds have survived three full washing machine cycles (I keep forgetting them in my pocket). I’d say they are pretty hard core. I have the buds+, but they are from 2020 so I’d say buy whatever is the latest model.

What about bose quietcomfort? Theyre on sale right now for 159 euro. Thank you btw, i do have samsung and the galaxy buds have some nice features i think.

I would say if you have a Samsung device, just get the Galaxy buds. But any other device, I would recommend getting the OnePlus. The OnePlus also better sound quality (better imaging, soundstage, and seperation). But the Samsung has better transparency mode and better ANC when it comes to blocking out high frequencies. It's not really a noticeable difference.

I prefer the Samsung Galaxy buds

Honest to God Every single set of buds I've ever owned makes it 6 months or less before something breaks Ive had skull candys Jbls Galaxy buds Raycons All last 2-6 months before something goes wrong I wear buds pretty much 24 hours a day And I've had a pair of tozo t10's from Amazon for $20 that have lasted a year and a half with 0 problems. I refuse to spend ridiculous amounts anymore.

My Samsung Galaxy Buds bought in 2019 still working fine.

Yeah I think after 6 years the batteries are getting weak. Probably 4 hours runtime now. But I'm planning on just replacing the batteries.

The models have been updated since I got mine in 2021, but I really love my Samsung Galaxy earbuds. They block noise really well for me especially if I pop on some quiet white/brown noise. I use them for remote work, take all my calls on them, etc.

I did notice my NOTHING ears have pretty mid noise canceling. I don't care as much because I just use my over-ear for noise canceling. I've never had amazing ANC buds so maybe i'm missing out. I do wish I had a android phone, my first ever buds were the Samsung Galaxy Buds. Loved them. The struggle is finding something that sounds great, with above average ANC, at a somewhat decent price $150-$80. I almost got the AV100s but I just couldn't justify the price. I'm currently really happy with the NOthings, but my main worry is quality control.

My Sennheiser Accentum, they are the nicest Headphones i've had. Really like them, sometimes my og samsung galaxy buds.

I use them too. I went through samsung galaxy buds, airpods, 3 pairs of sennheisers tw3m and now I’m using technics. I wouldn’t say they are better or worse than TW3 but at least they aren’t broken every few months. My only complaint is that a lot of times they aren’t charging one of my buds because of the “dirt” even though I clean them everytime before storing them in the case. It wasn’t like that in the beginning. But tbh I’m on my second pair of technics as well. First one stopped charging after like a month or so

I’ll probably end up stashing my 2’s in my gym bag. Right now I’ve got my old Samsung Galaxy Buds in there, they’ve honestly come in clutch so many times.

For comfort, I’d go with the Sony buds—they sound great and are usually really comfy.The Galaxy Buds  are also solid, especially if you have a Samsung phone. They’re comfy and have good sound. If you want something different and unique, the Nothing Buds 2 look cool and are comfy too.  

I'm still loving my Samsung galaxy buds- not plus, not 2. Nice simple black pill in your pocket. Good sound, lasts long enough the way I use them ( one at a time)

My Galaxy Buds live 😂. All I got and is honestly better than I anticipated so I'll take it

The older sony xm3's (and the xm4's albeit its not as easy) have replaceable batteries, along with some of the galaxy buds (they all use the same battery). I guess the fairphone ones are also repairable, but iirc they aren't amazing earphones to begin with. That's likely the closest you're gonna get to a TWS that "lasts". Alternatively, getting bluetooth hooks for wired iems like some of the other commenters here mentioned would also sort of work, since the IEM itself should last a really long time (but now its the hook thats somewhat disposable. Some of them might have batteries that are easy to replace, but I don't really follow them closely)

Do NOT use samsung galaxy buds with the LeGo. The sound is awful and choppy. Galaxy buds don't have the right code s for Windows.

You NEED a case quick, I just bought them months ago and the silver coating vanished, making it look black not silver

I got the samsung galaxy buds somewhere in 2020 and so did my gf. They are both still working fine. But I have uograded to the buds 3 because of a good deal. But they are still going strong after daily use at work.

They were decent, but a little expensive for the offered features. Have you thought about the Soundcore Space A40 or Earfun Free 2? A really comfy pair is the Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2.

Adult leader? Don't know, I can never get comfortable trying that, but my Samsung Galaxy Buds have been good Scout? Why do you have electronics out there? Earplugs, grab a couple extra foamies from the range if you forget some. Yes I am well aware some of you might flame my deeply held position that phones, tablets, smart watches, computers are detrimental to the point of being outdoors, and us leaders shouldn't be openly using ours in front of Scouts either.

Any Galaxy buds tbh

Samsung galaxy buds always had an issue with connecting wirelessly to the switch 1 but 2 fixes that!

No such thing as good Galaxy Buds. They're POS. You're eventually either gonna have 1 making shrieking noises in your ear. Or one with lower volume than the other. For such an expensive and supposedly premium item, they work worse than the cheap buds.

Not exactly what you asked for, but when I’m in an environment that I *really* need to drown out, I wear Loop earplugs under my noise cancelling headphones (Bose Quietcomfort Ultra) with the sound turned up high. I have many kinds of Loop earplugs so I choose depending on the amount of cancellation I need. They lay pretty flush to the ear. But to answer your original question, AirPods have been the best ANC buds I’ve used. I’ve only compared to the Galaxy Buds, but they’re better.

I've had samsung galaxy buds for years and don't think I've ever had one fall out.

Pretty much. Galaxy Buds work well especially if you have a Samsung phone. (Features) Especially in the sub 60usd space. Only other option are the Moondrop Space Travel, whose quality of audio is better. The NC is weak, and volume doesn't go up for those who are nearly deaf like me. $27 If you're lucky to find one below $60, the AKG N400NC are amazing and the closest I've gotten to XM5 level of audio and NC but they ate discontinued and AKG cleared the stock at $40. All metal construction, battery life (both case and buds) is decent, tips subjective. If you go expensive, XM5 are the best imo. LDAC, battery life, best ANC, foam tips, vast amount of features, etc.

I use galaxy ones they are pretty good to be cheap

I've had my Galaxy buds for 5 or 6 years I think. The best buds ever and so comfortable. Obviously discontinued, but if you can find them, I would get them.

Jabra Elite 10's. Not bad. Not amazing. The ANC isn't great. I preferred the Buds Pro 2 but I washed those. Then I washed my back pair of Galaxy buds. I decided to go with a cheaper pair (the Jabra's were on offer) that wouldn't break the bank should I leave them in the pocket of my laundry.

Pretty much any premium choice, like sony, Bose, Samsung, etc. if you want something lightweight, the new Sony link buds are great. Bose has great sound in their quietcomfort earbuds, but call volume is a bit lower than the competition. Galaxy buds are great all around. I have owned a few pairs.

Yes, that's a good thing. But even that feature is not *new*; which I was going for. I've had it on my galaxy buds for a while now. Probably not as good but still. And I agree. If these can replace buying expensive medical level hearing aids, it's only for the better. And I too have family members thatbuse hearing aids. One of the main things about them (for some reason) is that our older generation (atleast in our case) doesn't seam to like the wear bulky looking ear pieces for pretty much 24/7. It's breen a struggle sometimes. Also, earing aids have some features not available on others, like ability to boost specific frequencies and also quiet others with precision.

The samsung galaxy buds.

Sony WF-1000XM5 and Samsung Galaxy Buds.

If they are real I love mine. The only issue is have is charging them after a run I have to wait bc my left one seems tk collect moisture or something

yeah mine just be a one off deal. I still love these, they the only earbuds that don't hurt my ears when I wear them, unless I wear them for like 4 or 5 hours

I only have issues with my left one, and it's when I wore them when it was raining (which was stupid), and the few times I ran with them. I still love them.

New galaxy buds are amazing!

To be fair, it's BT compressed but still sound great. Wired is Flagship ANC. Extremely pleased with these OTE headphones

Ya I use galaxy buds as well but with the foam tip which helps keep it seated even better. I only ever run with one in so I’m still able to hear. 

Advice needed! I have been looking a long time and tried quite a few earbuds. But I cannot find it. So reddit, hear me out. Back in the day I bought a Samsung S8 and they came with these amazingly nice fitting yet very simple AKG wired ear buds. I still have them and these (and SONY MDR-EX15LP) have been the only ear buds that fitted in my ears without getting uncomfortable after 10 minutes of using. But unfortunately all the 3.5mm jacks are disappearing and the adapters are always a hassle. I am in need of wireless ones. So far I have tried: - soundcore liberty 4 nc (absolute horrible fit) - samsung galaxy buds - jabra 75t - some 3rd party brands I am done trying and wasting money on buds that don't fit my ears. So who can help me find ear buds that resemble the ergonomy of the AKG and sony's I've mentioned? Other requirements that are of high importance to me are: - high grade call quality (as in I need to be able to have a clear conversation while cycling to work through northern winds) - pretty good noice cancelling. Not the absolute best though. I have my Bose QC over ear headphone for that. - simple interface. I am not an audiophile nor a tech wizard. - flawless connectivity with any device. I absolutely loathe things that don't work when prompted. Hopefully some of you can point me in the right direction. I would be forever greatful😁.

Samsung Galaxy buds are pretty solid. Sound great, never had comfort issues. Used to wear them for 8 hours straight and never had issues. Would have to charge them once a week or so.

This is my exact set up and I work in a massive industrial plant, it works incredibly well.

Are there any earbuds that have multi-point connection, ANC, AND good microphones? I am also facing similar issues with my QC Ultra earbuds. The mics are just garbage. It captures every sound in the background but not my voice. At least on the laptop when I use MS Teams I have an option of selecting the laptop microphone. But when I'm on the move and take calls on my phone, it's very difficult for people to hear what I'm saying.  I was also facing issues with one earbud being louder than the other and I've already gone through 3 pairs. A little bit of ear wax and the performance starts degrading. I need to clean it with a microfiber cloth and screen cleaning liquid at least twice a week. My old Samsung Galaxy Buds were definitely better and cheaper than this. So yes, I would love some recommendation on good earbuds.

I am deeply dissapointed in the Galaxy Buds, ANC is really bad and the problem not in the level of suppresion but the fact that they sometimes differ in each ear, mic noise cancelation is also garbage, I barely could talk in the noisy environment ( like Mall or cars at the highway ) Sometimes they failed to switch off the call mode, sometimes the sound differ in ears. Very unstable, but the most annoyin is instability of the noise cancelation both in and out, I ended up using wired headphones again, planning to test huawei buds pro 3.

Yeah, I've heard they're amazing! I want to get a pair myself sometime soon but haven't quite yet. The Bose QuietComfort and Samsung Galaxy Buds have been my dailies for the last year or so and the QuietComfort is really nice. The Galaxy Buds are fine but don't fit in my ears so well. Anyways, thanks for chiming in!

Galaxy buds or my logitech g pro x

I use Bose QC2 headphones at home, when I’m out I use my AirPods Pro. Both are great but my Bose are getting on a bit and are 6 years old, so their battery life is not what it once was. I also have Galaxy buds with noise cancelling that are really good but I have an iPhone so AirPods are just easier.
