[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What is better than Sony and Bose (assuming you are also in the Samsung ecosystem more broadly)?
1. ANC 2. Device Pairing and Switching (eco) 3. 360 Spatial Audio (eco?) 4. Water and Dust Resistance 5. Control vis App (eco?) 6. Noise Suppression During Calls
What is worse than Sony and Bose?
1. Dolby (Sony) 2. On Bub Controls (Sony) 3. Out of Box Sound Profile (Bose)
I'm sure there are creature comforts I'm missing (especially set and forget items). But, honestly, I ditched my Bose and my Sony and my Beats Fit Pro - all of which is used for different use cases during the same period of time - for the Buds Pro 3.
If you are in the ecosystem it's a no brainer - buy them (period.).
If you aren't in the ecosystem, they are still very compelling, but Sony and Bose may have more accessible feature that would otherwise be "locked" unless using anither Samsung device (phone, tablet, etc).
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Galaxy AI Buds3 pro are the best ones yet! From the sleek design to the performance and quality! All my devices are Samsung from my phone, laptop, tablet, Chromebook, TVs, washer and dryer. I will not change!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Using these since they launched, they're absolutely great. I use them during exercising and going out in general, the Galaxy AI controls help me do things hands free at the gym. The ANC is pretty good, it even helps with the loud traffic in my area.
They dont stay in my ears during a workout, and the noise cancelation goes in and out :( Sound quality is great when they stay in if I dont move.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
