Great earbuds! I also have the Bose Quietcomfort Ultras, but these Buds3 Pros are more comfortable and work easier with my Samsung phone. The bass is not as heavy, but that can sometimes be a good thing. Some of the extra features are nice having sometimes, and it is nice having a smaller case than the Bose.
Charging issues and then connecting issues. Not good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hey! Thank you so much for sharing your feedback about the Galaxy Buds3 Pro. We truly appreciate hearing from our users as it helps us enhance the experience for everyone. Regarding your concerns about charging, we recommend ensuring that the charging case is clean and that the charging prongs are free from dust or debris. Sometimes, a gentle wipe can do wonders!

I give it a 2 star. MAINLY because the earbuds themselves do not charge sometimes. Especially the right one. You have to move it around and even sometimes that doesn't work. Other than that they sound really good. I just think you shouldn't have to maneuver the bud just to get a charge. Samsung I've been rocking with you since day 1. And do not let me get started on this S25U I got. Someone needs to explain why Samsung Music keeps popping up randomly on my phone. It's annoying.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, Bryan. We’re glad to see that you enjoy the sound quality, but we understand your concerns regarding the charging concerns. To help you resolve these concerns, please ensure the earbuds are properly seated in the case, as improper positioning can prevent the charging contacts from connecting. Also, check both the case and earbuds for any debris that might interfere with charging, and inspect them for any signs of damage that may require replacement. Finally, always use the included USB cable and a Samsung-approved wall adapter for charging. Products sold by Samsung are warranted against manufacturing defects in material and workmanship for the limited 12-month warranty period specified for each product.

Absolutely terrible. I am so disappointed with these. The right side the volume is poor. I have switched out the silicone pieces and they won't stay in my ears, they keep falling out. Battery life is terrible, my old earbuds (samsung buds) lasted longer than these do. They only last about 4 hours.

Thanks for reaching out, April! We appreciate your detailed feedback about the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, and we want to address each of your concerns to help improve your experience. For the volume on the right earbud, we recommend gently cleaning the speaker mesh with a soft, dry brush or cotton swab to remove any potential debris, as this can impact audio output. Ensuring the Galaxy Wearable app is updated to the latest version can also help optimize the earbuds' performance and address any software-related concerns. Regarding the fit, the Galaxy Buds3 Pro includes different-sized ear tips to ensure a snug and secure fit. To improve stability, check the directional marks (L and R) on the earbuds and insert the right earbud ("R") into your right ear and the left earbud ("L") into your left ear. Angle the earbuds slightly so the microphone points toward your mouth, and rotate them gently until they feel secure. Running the earbud fit test in the Galaxy Wearable app can confirm whether you’ve achieved an optimal fit. For battery life, the Galaxy Buds3 Pro is designed to provide up to 26 hours of playtime with a fully charged case, and this can be extended up to 30 hours depending on usage. To conserve battery power, ensure the earbuds are placed in the charged case with the lid closed when not in use. You can also adjust notification settings in the Galaxy Wearable app to reduce power consumption, which helps extend the listening experience. If you have 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
