I like how light they are, but none of the three tips make a good fit so the ANC is severely lacking. Worse is that after a run or working out, even with a tiny amount of moisture they won't charge. Even if I dry them with a towel, I have to wait an hour or two before I can put them in the charging case...which means I have to disconnect them from bluetooth, otherwise they stay connected. Sadly, I traded in my Buds2 Pro to offset the cost of these, so if I return them now, I have to pay a restocking fee AND I won't get my Buds2 Pro back.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hey Rich! Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro. It's great to see that you like how light they are! Regarding the fit, the Buds3 Pro comes with replaceable ear tips, allowing you to select the most comfortable option. Adjusting the angle of the earbuds in your ears may also improve stability. For charging after workouts, moisture on the charging contacts can prevent proper charging. Ensuring the earbuds are completely dry before placing them in the case is important. If drying with a towel doesn’t work immediately, allowing extra time for any residual moisture to evaporate can help ensure a reliable charge. We appreciate your feedback and hope these details help enhance your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro. For any further concerns or questions, please 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

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, Omar. The Buds3 Pro feature a polycarbonate (PC) body, which is designed to be both lightweight and durable. The main speaker mesh is made of aluminum, while the port mesh is constructed from stainless steel. These materials are chosen to provide a balance of durability and comfort. To ensure proper charging, it is important to keep the charging contacts on both the earbuds and the case clean and free from sweat or liquid. If an earbud is not charging, checking for proper alignment in the case and making sure that the case itself is sufficiently charged can help resolve the concern. Samsung products are covered against manufacturing defects in material and workmanship by a limited 12-month warranty. Additionally, we offer Samsung Care+ for eligible devices, which provides extended protection and extra support. You can enroll eligible mobile devices on Samsung.com at the time of purchase, or within 60 days of purchase at samsungcareplus.com. If this persists, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support for further assistance. -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

Broke in 2 months, Repair is priced too high.

Expertise:Intermediate
I owned the product for approximately 2 months. Last week before my trip, my earbuds case was rained on and it stopped functioning. Samsung requested a large sum to replace or fix which is as close to the actual price of the product despite owning it for only 2 months. To make things worse, they required a reply within 1 day which i didn't make in time to reply.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro! We’re glad to see you enjoy the sound quality and overall design. We understand you had some concerns about battery life. The Buds3 Pro actually provides up to 26 hours of playtime on a single charge, which extends to 30 hours when using a fully charged case. To help maximize battery life, we recommend keeping them in the charging case with the cover closed when not in use. Additionally, adjusting the notification settings through the Galaxy Wearable app on your connected phone, or in the Galaxy Buds app if you're using iOS, can help conserve power. These simple adjustments can make a big difference in ensuring your earbuds last as long as you need them! For any 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

Hi Carlton! We appreciate you taking the time to share your candid feedback with us. It sounds like you’ve had quite a frustrating experience with your Galaxy Buds3 Pro, and we can understand how disappointing that must be after initially loving them. The screeching noise you’re hearing could be linked to the sub-microphone’s interaction with the noise control settings. When using Active Noise Cancelling, Adaptive Sound, or Ambient Sound, the sub-microphone plays a key role in delivering your audio experience. If you happen to cover that area while adjusting or placing the earbuds in your ears, it can sometimes trigger sounds like beeping or howling. To help with this, we recommend ensuring that the sub-microphone located on the top outer edge is not covered while you’re handling the earbuds. Samsung offers a 12-month limited warranty for manufacturer defects. We also provide the option to add additional coverage with Samsung Care+ on eligible devices, which offers extended protection and additional support. If this persists, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support so that we can further assist you with this. -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

It's great to hear from you! Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro. We completely understand how important battery life is, especially during long listening sessions. While the Buds3 Pro provides up to 26 hours of playtime per charge, when using the fully charged case, you can extend that to an impressive 30 hours. To help get the most out of their Galaxy Buds, here are a couple of tips that might be useful. When the earbuds are not in use, we recommend storing them in the charging case with the cover closed to help preserve battery life. Additionally, adjusting the notification settings through the Galaxy Wearable app on the connected phone or the Galaxy Buds app if you are using iOS can really make a difference in extending their usage. Also, make sure to keep your buds updated as well as the device they are connected to. We hope you find these tips helpful. If you have any more questions or concerns, feel free 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
