"amazing, amazing, amazing ANC performance for earbuds! ... not even close in ANC performance vs these (Bose QuietComfort Earbuds (2024)) ... I, for ANC, prefer the approach Bose takes, blocking out pretty much all frequencies."
"Noise cancellation is solid. ... It's on the level of the Bose QC Earbuds, my previous daily driver, and actually sounds cleaner and feels better in the ear. ... Yes! I was also surprised by how good ANC is compared to the Bose buds. ... 10 ... The ANC on the PBP2 is better. ... Mine are much, much better than both my PBP1 and my Bose QCs."
"noise cancelling headphones are such a blessing for me. i've always been sensitive to noise and i get overstimulated easy when out in public. they give me silence and privacy when I need it. worth every cent!"

"I put them in my ear, put the helmet on, then do one final “push” with my finger to seat them in my ear for the ride. ... The batteries die before they work out of my ear."
"they are so comfortable that both I and my husband have had to feel our ears to check whether we were still wearing them."
"Also super bonus I've never head banged with earphones this hard besides with these soundcores, they stick to me like glue even when I'm in a metal mood and I'm headbanging for a good hour."

"Literally couldn't think of any pair of IEMs + dongle dacs could sound as analytical as the C3P+ for around $70. ... detail is just sooo much better. The C3P+ is just leagues ahead the I5 in terms of detail and resolution. ... the C3P+ is actually the closest sounding one to really expensive iems or headphone that I have."
"delivers the full package here. ... betting the house regarding this on this pair was fully worth it. ... It matches up (I would not say surpasses) a lot of wired in-ear monitors within this price bracket and slightly above. ... The prowess it shows in keeping the instrument separation clean is something that I really, really appreciate myself for buying this pair, not to mention the rumbly yet controlled, precise lows keep on coming and the highs soar without spice, without hurting your ears."
"Nothing short of a home run, here- the Ear once again brings me all; the way the bass hits on this track is very impactful but not bloated, punchy but not overpowering, and Kendrick’s powerful vocals shine through bright, while I enjoyed the way the Sax keeps on coming in at the right junctions of the song, and the way the cymbals play out on this track is probably one of the best I have heard through amongst all the gear that I have owned and currently own- the first in a wireless, and one of the few if I consider all. ... the timbre sounds natural and uncoloured"

"If you care about call quality and noise cancelling during calls then Huawei is the the way and only way to go ... Best overall for calls ... nothing comes close to the Huawei free clips in terms of call quality! ... mic quality for calls is mileeeees ahead on the Huawei."
"I wanted really good call quality because I take a lot of calls when I'm on a call in central City, and they have been amazing. ... I take a call in a cafe full of people and crying kids and the other person can't hear a thing"
"I can definitely tell that the mics have improved. The mics in general are more targeted. You can now have ambient sound amp voices in front of you. And I find that Bixby catches what I say better. ... Good. They really shined in times sqaure"

"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."
"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. ... 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"
"Touch and voice controls are next level ... touch controls are so simple and easy to use on the stems ... 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."

"Also I would never use them for the gym because I found they were not the most secure."
"3 pro for me don't work properly in heavy weight workouts ... I've lost each ear bud 6 times today while bench press and shoulders training ... hate this smooth surface and form."
"could use neither and sent back ... really hurt my (small) ears"

"every 60 seconds or so it shrieked for a couple of seconds in an electric staticy kinda way."
"For people that have not lost their hearing yet and can still hear very high-pitched noises, these earbuds produce a constant high-pitched sound even when both ANC and transparancy mode are disabled. ... This sound is amplified greatly when transparancy mode is enabled so I guess it's related to that feature"

"Yeah the battery life on Apple Watch is pathetic. ... Like I have the 4G Apple watch which I wear when I am out of town just in case my iphone dies or gets broken and I am in an emergency. That happened to me a few months back. I had my watch and only my watch. I had 4G turned on for emergency services and GPS turned on so I can find my way home. Convienent and life saving right? Except the stupid thing died after an hour and after that I was stuck with no communication abilities at all in the middle of the night wandering the streets. What good is having all of those capabilities if they are just going to die on you after 10 minutes? ... other than as an emergency backup for my phone (which I have now proven is a joke in a real life emergency)"
"If I record for more than 14 minutes it will freeze and battery is already almost dead. This is at night night by the way so temperature isn't high."
"the battery now wears out very quickly - after about 1 hour of usage."

"the multi point connection on the headphones doesn't even work, I downloaded the app, I turn the option on, and it asks for me to agree, I agree and does nothing. The slider stays off, and I repeated the process thousands of times. ... 2 device connections (advertised but not delivered) ... false advertising with the unusable two device pairing."
"they have connectivity issues"
"HOWEVER, and this is the only downside I really hate and see as a wtf missed opportunity, is the lack of multipoint. Come on..."

"QC issues, on my 2nd pair and they have a strange white noise that occurs randomly. ... First pair left earbud white noise was bad and had to return. ... 2nd pair same left earbud white noise and I’ve returned them. All happened within a week of light use."
"every 60 seconds or so it shrieked for a couple of seconds in an electric staticy kinda way."
"the Tea Pro are absolutely terrible. ... I couldn't sell them quick enough. ... Utter dogshit & not 10% as good as the Tea 2. ... utter crap with horrific mids, dreadful bass & terrible treble"
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.
r/PakistaniTech • Suggestions: Wireless/wired earbuds/handsfree for calling ->Can't comment on the airpods, but the Buds 3 Pro have a better mic than xm5. Sound quality is good too. For reference, I have a Pixel 8 Pro.
r/SonyHeadphones • Help me pick a pair of earbuds please! Thanks:) ->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).
r/Earbuds • Best wireless earbuds? ->Buds Pro 3 are elite
r/GalaxyS24Ultra • What is the best earbuds for cancelling noise right now ->I sent the air pods back. I had the opposite experience. Could not control them with my Samsung. I love my Buds Pro 3. I have 4 pairs. I am a Farmer and use them for hearing protection.
r/galaxybuds • I compared the Buds3 Pro to the AirPods3 Pro... Hear me out ->Tractors, skid loaders, PTOs. I also wear my worktunes over my buds when on a tractor or skid loader. But in general I wear my buds daily to filter out the noise. They work very well. This is coming from someone who is obsessed with hearing protection because her mother went deaf from not using it while running a brush hog...
r/galaxybuds • I compared the Buds3 Pro to the AirPods3 Pro... Hear me out ->Yep the integration is superior. I have 4 pairs and as soon as I open the lid on any of them while I am watching TV they connect. But it also knows when not to connect! Like I wear my buds all the time. So when I get in my car they know I want to use the car speaker for the audio. It is literally INSANE to me that the integration is so seamless
r/galaxybuds • I compared the Buds3 Pro to the AirPods3 Pro... Hear me out ->Yep I can't live without that now. I wear my buds all the time because I can't be bothered to have to look at my phone when a message comes in.
r/galaxybuds • I compared the Buds3 Pro to the AirPods3 Pro... Hear me out ->For me the fact that the noise cancelling is elite and that they read my notifications to me make them priceless. I wear mine all day.
r/galaxybuds • Galaxy buds 3 pro ->Because everyone else cant do it, Airpods Pro. 2 or 3. Only comfortable, properly sized case, proper buttons and well tuned form factor. AZ80's case is awful and tap buttons are insufferable for the tapping noise and inability to be comfortable laying down with them and they'll pause music randomly Galaxy Buds 3 pro have awful tuning and ANC is cheeks compared to airpods. I have both. If you're going to pay money to inconvenience yourself, At least get a moondrop space travel cause their anc beats these for me. Also make.sure to never attsch the airpods to an apple phone cause they'll update and degrade as planned
r/Earbuds • Tomorrow I'm buying one of these. Which one should I choose? ->I use the Buds 3 Pro but really miss my FEs. I wont switch back, just miss em.
r/S24Ultra • What wireless earbuds are you guys using? ->My wife has the Airpods 3 Pro. I 100% prefer my buds 3 pro over her's. Call sound, microphone, music, anc, all sound better
r/galaxybuds • I compared the Buds3 Pro to the AirPods3 Pro... Hear me out ->H3 are on the big side, but we'll worth it. Head and shoulders above my galaxybud 3 pro. And ANC is surprisingly good
r/Earbuds • I'm confused between three options. Which one would you recommend? ->Hello! I'm currently using the wired headphones from samsung (bought in an official store) at work and I'm pretty happy with them. I was considering getting the Pro 3 for the sound only. That's it. I don't care about anc or any other gimmick that isn't strictly related to music listening. Wireless automatically loses to wired in terms of audio quality on identical hardware (for example, the wired Audio Technica M50x has better sound than the BT version), hence why I'm wondering if the drivers/planar tweeter etc. give the Pro 3 an advantage, over being wireless. I do use a Samsung phone. Thank you very much! Edit: Ended up getting the Buds Pro 3. Tested them alongside the USB C ones for over an hour, using the same exact FLAC tracks. I can confidently say that I prefer the wired ones. The sound is just better in my opinion. It's not a huge difference, I'd say it sounds about 20-30% better. Test settings : The USB C ones were plugged on a S21 FE, and the Buds Pro 3 on my daily driver A35. USB C EQ : 0 everywhere but -1 on the 63 band as it somehows make the bass way richier and the overall sound brighter. Adaptive sound on because this too somehow makes the sound fuller. Buds Pro 3 EQ : 2 1 0 0 1 1 2 3 3 as suggested by a gentleman on another post. This sounds so much better than the out of the box EQ. Adaptive sound on as well. Here I find the sound better as well but the improvement isn't as noticable than the wired ones, idk why. ANC and everything else was off. Yes I know no UHQ codec whatever on the A35 but I honestly doubt it'd make a difference, as I can just about make the difference between a 320 kbps mp3 and a flac on an AKG K371. Now that being said, the buds pro 3 don't sound bad. Far from it in fact. Still had a pleasant listening experience, but at 10x the price of the wired ones, if it's just for music, do yourself a favor and save your money.

r/galaxybuds • Buds Pro 3 vs USB Type-C Earphones ->I just went FROM the XM5s to the Buds 3 Pro and honestly, I should've done it before. The Sony never sat well and had to really really push them hard in to the ear canal to get proper ANC. For me as a user who mainly wear during flights/trains and on the go work calls - the Samsung so far is breeze and I like the pinch and swipe functions. Your mileage will vary but totally find the XM5 in ears to be too hyped.
