Great sound, bad fit

Having used the Galaxy Buds 2 for over two years it felt like a no-brainer to upgrade to the latest version. The sound quality is definitely the best I've heard in any earbuds and the swipe/pinch media controls are far better than the annoying touch controls of the Buds 2, but for some reason Samsung decided to get rid of the silicone eartips. Because of this, the headphones simply don't stay in place even when I'm sitting perfectly still, and I have to constantly adjust it to keep them in my ears. They're way too bulky and uncomfortable. The Buds 3 Pro apparently do have silicone tips but they're around $400 after taxes which is really disappointing coming from someone who usually prefers Samsung's products.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So Close

I am a HUGE fan of the Galaxy Buds Live, the open ear bean buds. They're so comfortable I've walked into the shower multiple times with them on and just not realizing it.
So I was hoping that the Galaxy Buds 3 would be an adequate replacement with better sound and mic quality and they come so so close.
They're just as comfortable as the Buds Live, if not more so, and they sound *way* better, but they do sit in your ear more and block more outside sound, and most gallingly, unlike the Buds Pro, they have no transparency / ambient mode!?!
Literally just add transparency mode and they would be the perfect buds live replacements, but without it they're just another pair of earbuds.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Slide out easily, and are uncomfortable.

I purchased these after reading the good reviews for their audio quality. I put them in my ear, and they fell out with minimal movement after only a minute. I could use them as long as I sat still, and the sound was pretty good when they did work. Again, I cannot walk or talk with them, or I'll lose one or both.
I did cleaned the tips and my ears, which helped for two minutes before the same problem arose. If you are used to AirPods with the same design, these might work for you; otherwise, I suggest pumping out the extra hundred for the Pros with the rubber tips.

The earbuds stay in place in my ears even when I move around often or run. You do not have the issue of pausing media by mistakenly touching them. You have to press the earbuds for most commands. A very responsive voice command allows you to pause, skip, rewind, etc. So you can also control them without touching the buds. When I make calls as well, the audio quality is quite clear. The left and right earbuds allow you to select different actions when you push them e.g. start an app. They also sit comfortably when I put them on.
I did not expect that I would enjoy the earbuds this much due to reviews I saw online, however, it has been a delight using them.

Not a good ear fit.

Plain and simple, they'll don't fit in the ear well. Either the avoidance of silicon tip or over fits to come with them at least, I feel I'm am constantly at them to stay in. Following this I'm trying to keep them in as well when I'm trying to push the little click button. Lol. I know it is just a slight flex of a connect but it is there and when you need to press it amd the buds do not stay in ypur ears they keep flopping everywhere. It's day three of 4, might try to bring these back now.
Maybe just me, but if they could fit better instead of just kinda laying on the inner ear part it might sound good, alas I don't know too well because the sit away and are always feeling like or are flopping around after a head movement, and I don't think I'm too spastic.

Great sound for sure! Super slick and touch sensitive though. I’ll get use to it. Barley lasted the gym workout. I ran on the treadmill easy pace. Had to adjust it multiple times. I was at the pull up station. I looked down and it fell out. lol. Thank goodness I had my older buds to use.
