They function fine and integrate seamlessly with my Damsung phone, which is what I wanted. However, if I smile or look down with them in my ears, they slip right out

Hi Vicki,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the Galaxy Buds3. Comfort and fit are vital since they impact how earbuds perform for different users. Galaxy Buds aim to deliver clear sound and a stable connection, but ear shape influences comfort during extended wear. The Galaxy Buds3 are open-type earbuds without ear tips. To start, simply place them in your ears. Look for directional marks labeled 'L' and 'R' at the bottom of each earbud. Insert the R earbud into your right ear with the R facing you, and do the same with the L earbud in your left ear. Slightly tilt the microphone side of the buds toward your mouth by rotating them until they feel comfortable. For more tips on achieving the perfect fit with your Galaxy Buds3, please read the online article linked below. Thank you for being part of the Samsung experience and for your feedback.

Why buy anything else
on January 2, 2026
Posted by: Happy customer
Expertise:Expert
Don't let the negative reviews scare you (mostly from people with smaller ears or who didn't like the return process through Samsung), these buds are my favorite. Love the open ear design, I got rid of my pros for these.
My ears are moderate in size these buds fit great. And will stay in for me on runs and even to my surprise bike rides. I used to buy Samsung pros, but that in ear design hurts my ears. These have had premium sound quality for the form I want. ANC is still good but obviously there is not physical seal with this design. Honestly if max quite was what I wanted I would just use earplugs and headphones, will always work better for that use case. These are perfect for buds.

Hey there Scott,
Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Galaxy Buds3. Comfort can vary greatly, especially when earbuds are gifted. The Galaxy Buds3 are open-style, so they lack ear tips. To use them, just place them in your ears. Check the bottom of each for directional marks—L and R. Insert the R earbud into your right ear with the R facing you, and do the same for the L. Slightly angle the tip so the microphone points toward your mouth, not straight down. You can rotate the buds forward or backward until they feel comfortable. For more tips on finding the perfect fit, see the online article linked below. Your feedback helps us improve future designs to better suit different ear shapes and listening preferences. Thank you for choosing Samsung.

I bought these earbuds five months ago, and they still have a strong smoky smell, just like when I first opened the package. This has never happened with any other earbuds I’ve owned.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So nice and affordable, slightly on the big side
on January 3, 2026
Posted by: Tibee
from California
Expertise:Intermediate
As someone whos had their for a year now, theyre good. Theyre too big on my ears but as long as I dont do anything too too much movement like dancing around and everything they stay fit. The noise canceling is nice and I love how easy it is to control music without touching my phone. If they come out with anothe version of this with smaller ear buds I definitely would upgrade. I also love that the case is wireless charging!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Kevin,
Thank you for your feedback on Galaxy Buds3. These earbuds are designed to deliver reliable sound quality and seamless connectivity within the Galaxy lineup for everyday use. Since comfort can vary from person to person, your comment about feeling uncomfortable after about an hour is very helpful. To achieve a more comfortable fit that also highlights the Active Noise Canceling feature, remember that the Galaxy Buds3 are open-type, not canal-style, meaning they lack ear tips. To start, simply place them in your ears. Check the bottom of each earbud for directional marks; you'll see an L and R. Insert the R earbud into your right ear with the R facing you, and the L into your left ear with the L facing you. Tilt them slightly so the microphone on the bottom points toward your mouth, not straight down. Adjust the fit by rotating the earbuds forward or backward until comfortable. For more tips on fitting your Galaxy Buds3 perfectly, visit the online article linked below. We value your feedback and appreciate you being a Samsung customer.
