Be prepared to drop these a lot. Overall the sound quality, active noise cancelation, and even battery life are improved from the previous generation. However the design of these buds is bad, I do like the switch to stem buds but these, with the weird design stem are very hard to hold. The controls on the buds are hard to use as well since your left guessing which of the five sides on the stem to ship or pinch. These are also by far the hardest buds to put back in there case. I'm constantly dropping these and it's always a hassle to put them away. These are the only buds I've used with these issues and I've used many from many different brands.

Hi there WildTea14, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us about your Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro. We are happy to hear you are finding the extended battery, enhanced audio quality, and ANC feature to be so enjoyable during your usage. We understand the material of the earbuds is an important factor when placinig in your ears and then back in to the charging case. The pinch feature of your earbuds can take some adjusting as well if you are accustomed to using the tap setting. We have provided a link to the Samsung Support Team if you have questions or would like to explore options for your experience further. Thank you for being a Samsung customer. -Elizabeth Samsung Support smsng.us/Samsung-Support Samsung Community smsng.us/Samsung-Community Facebook smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger X https://smsng.us/X-Messages
I've had these for a few weeks the phone call quality is amazing, the sound quality is also great on my samsung phone. The noise cancelation could be improved (hopefully with a future update) sennhiessers, and bose noise cancelation is much better. I would love to see the app include something like the Advanced Acoustic Technology that the Denon PerL Pro has, as that is definitely a game changer and works amazing. Touch controls are good. It didnt take long to get use to the triangle stems. Battery life is good not great, but solid, somewhere between 5-6hrs. The transparency is great. App is good but like stated above would love to see something like the Advanced Acoustic Technology that the Denon PerL Pro have. Overall great buds, would definitely recommend, especially for samsung phones, but would definitely love to see the noise cancelation improved.
First of all, a word of advice - READ the instructions and/or find a video on how to set up and use your Buds. These are terrific when configured properly. I am amazed at the sound, the bass, and the 360 does not disappoint. To activate the LEDs you need to pinch both Buds at the same time. These to me are more comfortable to wear than my Buds 2 Pro. I am glad I upgraded mine. One last thought, if you are mature or have hearing problems use the Adapt ambient sound option under Accessibility, you are welcome!
When the first images of these dropped I was really sad to see the stem. Over time it grew on me enough to purchase. I was lucky and got a good working set from the early shipments. Coming from mainly jabra products that have really good anc to buds3 pro was a shock. The anc doesnt compare to my last jabra earbuds. The buds3 pro fit my ears perfectly so I didnt have to change the tips. I'm no audiophile or anything but the sound quality is pretty decent.
After unboxing, I found that the right earphone could not be connected. After being fully charged, the right earphone could not be connected.
