Areas for improvement

Maybe you need to improve the design of how the earbuds fit into the case. I find it difficult to place them back, especially in low-light conditions. It’s not easy to align them properly with the case. Auto connect is good though.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Galaxy Buds3, Ajay! We see that you reached out to Exoress with concerns about the buds not staying in your ears, but we are here to help! We designed these buds as open-type buds for a comfortable and natural listening experience. Since they don’t have earbud tips, they provide a more breathable fit, allowing you to enjoy your audio for longer periods without discomfort. To get the best sound quality, simply place the earbuds in your ears, paying attention to the directional marks—L for left and R for right. Positioning them correctly is crucial for optimal performance, so make sure the microphone on the bottom points towards your mouth for clearer calls. Don't hesitate to rotate the buds slightly until they feel just right for you. We appreciate your feedback and hope these tips enhance your experience with the Galaxy Buds3! For any further questions or concerns, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3, SPat. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to make changes and improvements. We noticed that you have found the fit less than ideal. The Galaxy Buds3 are designed as open-type buds, which means they do not use traditional earbud tips that can create a snug fit. To get the best experience, we recommend trying this method: place the buds in your ears and check the directional marks on the bottom, where there is an “L” for left and an “R” for right. Insert the R bud into your right ear with the “R” facing you and the L bud into your left ear with the “L” facing you. You will want to angle the bud slightly so that the microphone at the bottom points towards your mouth. This might require some adjustment, so feel free to rotate the buds forwards and backwards until you find a fit that feels comfortable for you. We are glad to see that you had a better experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro but we strive to provide a great experience with all our devices. Your insights are valuable to us, and we are here to help you enjoy your experience. If you have any questions or need further assistance, do not hesitate to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3. It’s clear how much you value your annual gift, and it means a lot that you chose Samsung! The Galaxy Buds3, as open-type earbuds, are designed to offer a lightweight and natural wearing experience, but achieving the right fit can depend on ensuring they’re worn as intended. To get the best fit and performance, check the directional marks (L and R) on the buds before placing them in your ears. Insert the right bud with the "R" facing you and the left bud with the "L" facing you. Slightly angle the earbuds so the microphone points towards your mouth, and adjust them by rotating forward or backward until they feel secure. This can make a noticeable difference in comfort and audio quality. We recognize that your long-standing trust and advocacy for Samsung products come from high expectations, and feedback like yours is essential for us to grow. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. If you have any further questions, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these! I bought these to replace my broken AirPods and I prefer theses so much more. They are very comfortable to wear and the battery lasts decently long. I also love the way they look, very chic.

The best on the market

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are amazing and the best I have ever used to date. They are so clear and when they are in I don't hear anything that is around me. I love using them in the gym when working out.

It's great to hear from you, Bruce. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on the Galaxy Buds3! It's wonderful to hear that you're enjoying certain aspects of the earbuds such as the rich sound and immersive bass. Many users appreciate their sleek design and the open-type style that allows for a more comfortable fit and a natural ambient sound. To maximize your experience, remember that the Galaxy Buds3 are indeed designed as open-type buds, which means they don’t have earbud tips like traditional models. To get them set up perfectly, simply place them in your ears and check the bottom for the directional marks—look for the L and R. Insert the R bud into your right ear with the R facing you, and the L into your left ear with the L facing you. By angling the blade slightly so that the microphone points towards your mouth, you'll not only improve sound quality but also enhance your overall experience. Plus, feel free to adjust them by rotating them forwards and backwards until you find the perfect fit. We’re thrilled you’re enjoying the Galaxy Buds3, and we hope these tips help you make the most of their features. If you have any more feedback or questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at Samsung Support! -Kelvin

Fair review after 3 weeks
on March 12, 2025
Posted by: Greenstu

This is my first pair of buds this style. My honest opinion after daily use for a solid 3 weeks is; Sound quality is better than good but not fantastic. I listen to a mix of 90s grunge, metal , 2000s rock hip-hop ,dance, pop, country, and occasional 50s and 60s music. I also listen to alot of podcasts.
I consider this a pretty good mix. I haven't found anything that App presets can make sound pretty good, and with some tweaking I am able to get most of the sounds I want. The Bass is strong and everything can be made to sound clear and crisp.
Now I want to talk about the fit. Standard users far as sitting, walking, chewing, doing odd jobs around the house they stay in my ears and don't fall out. However they very quickly loosen up and the sound quality takes a dip. I wish there was a way to hold them in place a bit better. This is not a deal breaker, just an inconvenience.
Finally to leave on a positive note! I love the controls. They aren't too sensitive and are incredibly responsive. This has not been my experience with any buds in the past. When you need to just make an adjustment to these you're not skipping songs or stopping or turning the volume all the way up or down. When you do want to do those things the controls just work!
I would recommend this to a friend!
