Great Product overshadowed by Design flaws
on March 14, 2025
Posted by: Patrick
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Christmas purchase of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro began with immense satisfaction, courtesy of their impressive audio performance and outstanding noise canceling. However, this was immediately undermined by the discovery of the well-documented charging case defect. To find such a critical flaw in the third iteration of this product line is not only frustrating but also indicative of a serious quality control oversight. It's a significant letdown for a product marketed as premium, especially considering the otherwise excellent features.

"I absolutely love the Galaxy Buds3 Pro Silver! The sound quality is top-tier, with deep bass, clear mids, and crisp highs. The active noise cancellation (ANC) works wonders, especially in noisy environments. They fit super comfortably, and I can wear them for hours without any discomfort. The battery life is excellent, and the sleek silver design looks premium. The touch controls are smooth and responsive, making them easy to use on the go. Definitely a must-have for anyone looking for high-quality wireless earbuds!"
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not the best design
on March 27, 2025
Posted by: Kcarter87
I hate this design they don't stay in your ears you also have to squeeze them very hard to change a songs and let's not forget about trying to turn the volume up another headache and when you on the phone they have the audacity to be sensitive so if you move your hair out the way and accidentally touch them they hung up your call please go back to the old design.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback about the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, Kcarter87. Your feedback is essential as we continue to make improvements. To improve the fit and make sure the earbuds stay securely in place, we recommend selecting the ear tips that fit your ears best from the provided options, ensuring a snug seal without gaps. When inserting the earbuds, align the directional marks (L for the left ear and R for the right ear) and rotate them slightly to achieve a comfortable and stable fit. Adjustments like angling the earbuds toward your mouth can also help enhance their stability. In regards to the gesture controls, the earbuds feature pinch and swipe areas that are designed for convenience. Pinching once can play or pause tracks, while swiping adjusts volume levels. To avoid unintentional gestures, it’s essential to avoid covering the touch-sensitive sensor or making contact with sharp objects. Cleaning the sensor regularly helps maintain responsiveness and minimizes unexpected actions, such as hanging up calls. We appreciate your feedback about the design, and your thoughts are valuable for improving user experience. Let us know if you need additional guidance on using the Galaxy Buds3 Pro effectively! For any questions or concerns, 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
These buds don't seal properly... noise always gets in. The old galaxy earbud style was a so much better fit and seal. These are just a big thumbs down

Thank you for sharing your feedback about the Galaxy Buds3 Pro. We completely understand your concerns regarding the fit and noise isolation. To achieve the best experience with your earbuds, it’s essential that you use the right sized ear tips. The Galaxy Buds3 Pro come with a variety of ear tip sizes, so we recommend making sure you have the perfect fit for your ears. A snug fit minimizes any gaps and helps prevent external noise from leaking in, ensuring that you enjoy optimal audio. If you're unsure about how to change the ear tips, we have a detailed guide available to help you. Once you’ve selected the right tips, remember to check the directional marks on the earbuds. Ensure that the "R" is facing you when inserting the right bud and the "L" when inserting the left bud. This small adjustment can make a significant difference in sound quality! Additionally, please angle the earbuds slightly so that the microphone is pointing towards your mouth—it can enhance voice clarity during calls. You can also rotate them a bit until you find the fit that feels just right. Finally, don’t forget to run the earbud fit test within the Galaxy Wearable app. It’s a handy tool to help confirm that you have the perfect fit for your ears. We’re committed to providing a great listening experience, and we hope you give these tips a try for improved comfort and sound quality! If you have 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 Phil! Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback on the Buds3 Pro. We hate to see you’re experiencing these concerns with your Galaxy Buds3 Pro. To help enhance your experience, please ensure that both the earbuds and the charging case are clean, as dust or debris can affect charging. Additionally, try using a different USB-C cable and adapter, and make sure the charging pins inside the case are properly aligned with the earbuds. If the battery still isn’t charging, resetting the earbuds may help. For touch controls that aren’t responding, check that they are enabled in the Galaxy Wearable app, and consider resetting the earbuds to restore functionality. Lastly, for a better fit and comfort, adjust how the earbuds sit in your ears, as slightly rotating them could improve the seal and enhance noise cancellation. The Galaxy Buds3 Pro comes with ear tips designed for a secure fit. If you have any further questions or would like assistance, 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

Thanks for reaching out to us, Jose. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to make changes and improvements. The Galaxy Buds3 Pro features an updated design and touch controls for easy pinch and swipe gestures. If your buds are falling out, it's important to ensure that you have the right-sized bud tips attached. Adjusting the placement of the buds by rotating them slightly forward or backward can help improve stability. When storing the buds, ensure they are properly seated in the case to maintain their performance. To maximize battery life, use Samsung-approved charging accessories and make sure the case and buds are fully charged. Keeping the charging contacts clean and free of debris can also help prevent challenges with battery performance. If this persists, please do not 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
Hard to use the touch controls. The mic arms are constantly getting in the way when I have to put on my work safety gear. The ones I had would make a clicking noise every time I moved my head. The new design does not work for me.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, Michael. The touch controls are designed to allow easy pinch and swipe gestures for managing calls, music, and other features, but we understand they may take some getting used to. To prevent unintentional activations, try handling the buds by areas that do not include the gesture sensors. As for your work safety gear, the placement of the mic arms may feel challenging in certain situations. The Galaxy Buds3 Pro features a redesigned blade mic arm to improve call clarity, but it is important to ensure they are positioned correctly for a secure and comfortable fit. Adjusting the orientation and angle of the buds might help reduce interference with other equipment. Your comment about the clicking noise could indicate a potential concern with the buds' fit or contact points. Be sure to ensure that the buds are worn properly and free of obstructions. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to make improvements. If you have any further 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

We appreciate the feedback, Jimmy. Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro. It’s wonderful to know that you’re enjoying their performance. The Active Noise Canceling feature adjusts sound through the sub-microphone, located on the top outer edge of the earbuds, to minimize external noise. This allows for a more immersive listening experience, even in noisy environments like mowing. Your feedback is appreciated and helps highlight the benefits of these buds. If you ever have 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
