It is not as snug in the ear as it should be.The roundness is too big and it falls ogg. Maybe it needs to be slimmer a bit.

Hey Rose! Thank you for your honest review of the Galaxy Buds3. The Buds3 features immersive audio and an adaptive equalizer. It also includes live translation and a revolutionary all-new design. We hate to see that they don’t fit as snugly as you expected. Just to clarify, the Galaxy Buds3 are open-type buds, meaning they do not have earbud tips. To use them, simply place them in your ears by checking the bottom for directional marks—look for an "L" for the left bud and an "R" for the right bud. Insert the "R" bud into your right ear with the "R" facing you, and the "L" bud into your left ear with the "L" facing you. Make sure to angle the microphone on the bottom towards your mouth for optimal use, and you can adjust the fit by rotating the buds until they are comfortable. Once again, we appreciate your feedback! If you have any further concerns or questions, 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

volume seems low, they slip out of my ears extremely easily. nothing beats the stick of the Buds+. I have both these and the 3 Pros and even though I struggle with the Pros they still sit in my ear better then these.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3, Edward. The Galaxy Buds3 and Galaxy Buds3 Pro can enhance your understanding of real-time conversations in different languages, thanks to Galaxy AI! With the Interpreter app, you can listen to continuous in-person conversations or lectures and receive quick translations directly through your earbuds. Additionally, the Interpreter app provides a text transcript to accompany the translations. We see that you're having challenges with how they fit and the volume. It's worth noting that the Galaxy Buds3 are open-type earbuds, which means they don't have traditional ear tips, making them easier to place in your ears. To ensure a proper fit, be sure to check for the directional marks on the earbuds; there should be an “L” for the left earbud and an “R” for the right. Insert the R bud into your right ear with the R facing you, and the L bud into your left ear with the L facing you. Make sure to angle them slightly so that the microphone is pointing toward your mouth rather than straight down. You can also adjust the angle by rotating them forward and backward until they feel comfortable. This might help improve both comfort and volume performance. Also, make sure your buds are charged, as the sound may be lower when they are not fully charged, and install updates if they are available for your buds. If you have any other concerns or questions, 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
Overall, I can't recommend these ear buds. The good: they are easy to connect and use. The sound quality is fine. The bad: these ear buds don't sit securely in the ear. Over the course of a 90 minute plane trip, they fell out or nearly fell out multiple times. Even when they didn't fully fall out, they would come loose, which diminished the sound quality.

It's great to hear from you, Gabe. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts about the Galaxy Buds3. We understand that fit is crucial to your experience with these earbuds. The Galaxy Buds3 features a brand-new design that enhances audio quality in a shape that your ears will love. With fresh finishes and a new clear charging case, they stand out among other options. Since the Galaxy Buds3 are open-type earbuds, they do not include ear tips. To begin using them, simply place them in your ears. Make sure to check the bottom of the earbuds for directional marks indicating left (L) and right (R). Insert the R bud into your right ear with the R facing you and the L bud into your left ear with the L facing you. Adjust the angle slightly so that the microphone on the bottom points toward your mouth instead of straight down. You can rotate the buds forward and backward until they fit comfortably. If you have any further concerns or questions, 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

Buds3 - Fit Well, Good Purchase
on December 12, 2024

I research all products extensively before purchasing just a habit I guess. I ran across a ton of criticism about comfortability, fit, staying in place.
First impressions are the fit is great. Not falling out or moving around. Sound is above average but I have to keep the volume high. Probably better for my health.
Coming from GalaxyBuds+ so it's been a while since a new pair. With the trade in and sale I couldn't pass these up.
The 360 sound is cool especially with head movement activated. The buds make a faint click sound when you pinch so you know your hitting them right. It's almost like pressing a button. Sleek design, carebeaner case is cool and free. Don't care if they look like airpods or not...I bought the silver.
