[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: Sound quality. I can block noise when desired or allow as much out noise as needed. Great when I'm working and need to block out. Connection: seamless funding upon removal from case. Weight: barely there Battery: lasts thrift multiple work sessions before needing a charge. Quick charge
Cons: Button: have hard time finding button to Placement: my ears are quite small, so it dies not stay in at long as I'd like. If I could find smaller tips, that would suffice
I wanted to give these a 4-star rating because I love Samsung products, but if I'm not honest in my reviews, I'll be doing both them and myself a disservice. The sound quality is good, and I also like the controls on the headset. However, they do not stay in my ear. At first, I thought I was doing something wrong, but no matter what I do, they won't stay in. They've dropped on the bus, in the elevator, and while walking down the street. They just don't feel secure. I only use them around the house because I'm afraid to lose them. I am giving them 3 stars because I believe in the quality overall, it's just the fit for me.

Thank you for your honest feedback regarding the Galaxy Buds3, ABrito! We truly appreciate your love for Samsung products and noted your concerns about the fit. As the Galaxy Buds3 are open-type earbuds, they don’t come with tips like traditional canal models, which can sometimes make achieving a secure fit a bit tricky. To help you ensure they stay in place, we recommend checking the directional marks on the bottom of the earbuds—look for the “L” and “R.” When inserting them, make sure the “R” bud is in your right ear with the “R” facing you, and the “L” in your left ear with the “L” also facing you. You can also adjust the fit by rotating the earbuds slightly forward or backward until they feel just right. Positioning the microphone towards your mouth can also enhance your experience. We want the Buds3 to provide you with the best sound quality and comfort, so we hope these tips help you enjoy them fully. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve! If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate 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

Design and Fit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Buds3 Silver feature a modern and sleek design with a metallic finish that gives them a premium look. However, in my experience, the fit is not the most comfortable. Despite trying different positions, the earbuds do not stay securely in my ears and tend to fall out with movement, making them impractical for daily use, especially while walking or exercising. Unlike other models with interchangeable silicone ear tips, these have a rigid open-fit design, which may not be ideal for all ear types. In my case, the lack of a secure fit affected the overall experience, making them unreliable for activities that involve movement.

Thank you for sharing your honest thoughts on the Galaxy Buds3, Vav! It's great to know that you appreciate the modern, sleek design and metallic finish, giving them a premium look. To address the fit and ensure they stay secure, here's a personalized guide for getting the best fit with your Galaxy Buds3: All you have to do to get started is place them in your ears. Check the bottom of the earbuds for directional marks. You will see an L and an R. Insert the R bud into your right ear with the R facing you. Insert the L bud into your left ear with the L facing you. Angle the blade slightly so that the microphone on the bottom is pointing towards your mouth rather than straight down. You can adjust the buds by rotating them forward and backward until the fit feels right. We hope these steps help you achieve a more secure and comfortable fit. Your feedback is invaluable to us as we continue to improve our products. If you have any questions or need additional support, don't hesitate 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

Poor fit poor design

Bought these a few months ago and I've had them fall out on trains planes busses I've had them fall out on loading docks. The tracking app is useless. And even with keeping my ears clean the audio is now trash. There's no way to open them up and clean them they require to send them in to get cleaned but that costs additional money that's not worth spending on these. Hands down the worst Samsung device I've bought.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We appreciate your sharing your thoughts on the Galaxy Buds3! We understand how important it is to find the perfect fit, and we truly appreciate your feedback. As open-type buds, the Galaxy Buds3 are designed for a comfortable listening experience without the need for ear tips. To ensure they sit snugly in your ears, please make sure to insert the R bud into your right ear with the R facing you, and the L bud into your left ear, also with the L facing you. Angling the bud slightly so that the microphone points towards your mouth rather than straight down can help with clarity as well. Be sure to adjust the buds by rotating them until you find the perfect fit. If you ever misplace your buds, remember that the SmartThings Find app is available to help you locate them easily. We hope these tips enhance your experience with the Galaxy Buds3! For any questions or concerns, 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

Good product. 1 or 2 drawbacks

Posted by: SoccerSammy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is great for music listening and talking on the phone. I did find the case not wanting to charge due to the new design similar to airport, it seems more can get stuck in the case as it isn't as shallow.
2. I did have support issues with Samsung that have since been rectified but initially I was having Bluetooth issues.
Now everything is fixed and I love my buds.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new sleek style surpasses the prior style of earbuds. There are so many user friendly options, easy to use and let's take a minute to appreciate the sound quality. I am able to use my earbuds while using my phone and tablet at the same time. It can detect what screen you're looking at and switch sound modes. Love them. Holds a charge with constant use for about 4 days sometimes longer. Clear sound when in calls as well.
