Dropped one earbud in snow for literally 2 seconds and it hasn't worked since. That's defective, they have a certain waterproof rating and it's certainly longer than 2 seconds in snow...not a water puddle.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for your feedback regarding your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, Bean. We take consumer concerns seriously. The Galaxy Buds3 Pro have an IP rating that ensures they are water-resistant up to 3 feet for up to 30 minutes. While these earbuds are designed to handle splashes and brief immersion, their performance can be affected by extreme conditions like snow, especially if they are dropped. We encourage users to avoid exposing the earbuds to snow or other elements beyond the specified limits. We'd like to gather some information regarding the bud that you dropped. Please reach out to us at Samsung Support so that we can further assist you. We look forward to hearing from 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
Similar to previous versions, some pros some cons.

Same as previous versions. They stay in your ears better but the touch controls aren't as easy to use. Sound quality is good. The Buds 2 were good but didn't stay in your ears as well as these do. Also these aren't as conspicuous so I can't use them at work as much.
