Massive fan of the new direction the design went in. The new touch controls are amazing compared to the hold capacitive ones. Much prefer the new buttons. I have had zero accidental inputs. In ear fit is a very clear improvement over last gen. Passthrough mode is significantly better with these as well as audio quality. Couldnt recommend them more. Wouldn't kill you to hold off on the upgrade however I think they are well worth it. Would love to see more striking designs across the Samsung lineup.
It sounds excellent, and the stick operates smoothly. However, (1) it never gave me a "good fitting", and when I tried to replace to a different size insert, the plastic ring broke off and left on the unit and I don't want to force it out so I returned the unit. (2) I prefer BUDS 2 design a lot more, so I'll keep using it, or buy another one since this set occassionally disconnected itself.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Previous/Next pinch button feels cheap. The swipe for volume gesture is a lot weirder to use in public and a lot more hassle than what Buds2 Pro offers.
Personally, this is the only Samsung earpiece that would not stay in my ears if I were to move or talk.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good sound, no nickel allergy

This is my review as someone who's not an audio expert and someone who's only had these for a few days. I upgraded from the buds 2 pro because the charging notches on the Buda were giving me allergic reactions and making my ears burn. So far these haven't given me any kind of reaction so I'm happy about that! The buds sound good, but I do prefer the overall design of the 2 pro to the 3 pro, but the fact that my ears aren't in pain is a higher priority.
