Good looking ear buds but difficult to handle the features as volume up and down, mute and not very good interaction to an additional device like a PC
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for reaching out to share your candid feedback of the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, Mike. It's great to see that you love the design of the buds, but we see that you may be having some challenges handling the pinch and swipe controls. To assist you, here’s a brief guide: For pinch controls, a single pinch will play or pause the music, answer or end a call, and stop features like “Read Notifications Aloud,” “Voice Detection,” or “Siren Detection.” A double pinch skips to the next song, while a triple pinch will play the previous song. If you triple pinch within three seconds of starting music, it will restart the song from the beginning. For pinch and hold, you can activate the preset function (default is noise control mode) or reject a call. As for swipe controls, you can adjust the volume by swiping up or down along the designated area. We hope this information enhances your experience with the Buds3 Pro!To assist you, here’s a brief guide: For pinch controls, a single pinch will play or pause the music, answer or end a call, and stop features like “Read Notifications Aloud,” “Voice Detection,” or “Siren Detection.” A double pinch skips to the next song, while a triple pinch will play the previous song.

Great synergy between devices
on April 3, 2025
Posted by: Songsung3133
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The main feature that has really made things simple between my multiple phones and watch, the buds switches between devices seamlessly. I'm listening to music on one phone, get a call on another, accept the call and buds switch.

Software is garbage
on April 11, 2025
Posted by: Maxipad5000
Software is garbage. Pinch controls are inconsistent, sound modes like ambient/noise canceling are not remembered when taking earbuds out of the case and have to frequently re-elect the sound mode, and you get a notification that your earbuds have stopped charging everytime your case is out of charge. So I disabled the notification setting for the wearable app and now I can't use the app for the earbudes unless notification settings are turned on.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback on the Buds3 Pro! We see that have some comcerns and we'd love to help enhance your experience with your buds. The pinch controls are designed to manage playback, calls, and noise controls modes directly on the earbuds. If they're not responding as expected, ensure the gesture areas are clean and free of sweat or debris, as this can affect their performance. For sound modes like Ambient or Active Noise Canceling, it's helpful to know that these do not stay active after the earbuds are removed from the case. You can quickly re-select your preferred mode using the pinch controls or the Galaxy Wearable app. Regarding the charging notifications, the case’s battery indicator light shows the charging status. If the case is out of charge, it may cause a notification that the earbuds stopped charging. To fully use the app's features, notifications need to remain enabled. Once again, thank you for sharing your feedback. If you have any further questions or concerns, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin smsng.us/Samsung-Support smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger smsng.us/X-Messages smsng.us/Samsung-Community smsng.us/Warranty-Info smsng.us/Samsung-Care-Plus

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with the Buds3 Pro, Erick. If one Galaxy Buds3 Pro earbud charges while the other does not, it may be due to misalignment or debris on the charging contacts. Ensure the earbuds are seated correctly in the case and check for any dust or dirt on the connectors, cleaning them if necessary. Using a Samsung-approved charger and cable can also help avoid charging issues. If this persists, inspect the earbuds and case for damage, as this could affect charging functionality. For further assistance, pleaes be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support so that we can further assist you. -Kelvin smsng.us/Samsung-Support smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger smsng.us/X-Messages smsng.us/Samsung-Community smsng.us/Warranty-Info smsng.us/Samsung-Care-Plus

Great audio, but "blades" are a real negative
on April 23, 2025
Posted by: jababin
from Pearland, TX
Expertise:Intermediate
I really love the audio from these and a lot of other features are quite nice. However, the "blades" are an extreme annoyance. They catch on any article of clothing or anything else that might get close to my head. The controls on them are neat, but do not make up for the negatives. I sincerely hope the next iteration of Samsung Buds go back to being Buds and not wannabe iPods

The truth is what is a little complicated: changing the plastics and also the company does not sell the replacements.
