I bought to replace my Buds Live because of their bad call sound quality. The call sound quality on the Buds 3 is better, but music wise these don't sound as good as the Buds Live. They also won't stay in my ears! I really wanted to crown them the open ear king, but not this time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Really hated the plastic tip of in-ear buds and was thrilled to learn the buds3 had the fruit buds design. Switched from fruit buds and the sound is so much better.
I enjoy the samsung buds 3. The most attractive feature that convinced me to upgrade was the change in design. The stem look and the non-pro buds 3 not having rubber ear tips was attractive to me. I figured this would mean a better ear fit for me, as rubber ear tips have never been comfortable. The answer is... it almost met my expectations. The fit in ear is perfect... unless you have long hair (like I do) that gets in the way or you sweat alot. Either of those things exist and you might find yourself trying to catch ear buds at the gym or even outside while taking a walk. I definitely think they're better than previous buds because all but the buds live would fall out of my ear constantly in any situation, even sedentary ones. The buds 3 stay in ear relatively well & sound great despite not having all of the audio capabilities as the pro version. Would recommend for sure.
They are too big. They don't fit in my ear comfortably and always fall out

Huge disappointment. Without ear tip, they won't stay put.

Good Fit Than the Live or Buds 2

I always had to reposition the Buds 2 in my ears, and the Live would fall out. I only use earbuds when I am stationary, I do not walk the street with earbuds on, I want to be aware of my surroundings. They are not good if you are going to use them in the gym or when running but, the Buds 2 were also not good when exercising. Every upgrade Galaxy Buds has is an approvement.
I love these so much better than the buds 2. They it's snug in my ears and the sound is great. The only issue I have is that with my nails it is difficult to maneuver the controls with my hands so The Voice control is better for me
