Hey there Wayne,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro.
The Galaxy Buds3 Pro come equipped with intelligent noise control, immersive audio, and seamless connectivity with Galaxy devices. We understand that it can be frustrating when call quality, charging alignment, and battery life don't meet your expectations, especially compared to your previous Samsung earbuds.
To improve charging, clean the metal contact pins on both the earbuds and the inside of the charging case using a dry cotton swab or an alcohol wipe. Additionally, gently pressing the earbuds down to click them firmly into place can help ensure they connect properly.
For better call quality, open your phone's Bluetooth settings, tap the settings icon next to your Galaxy Buds3 Pro, and make sure that Super Wideband Speech is enabled for enhanced call processing.
To extend the battery life, please note that features such as continuous Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), LED lights, and high-resolution audio (UHQ) can drain the batteries more quickly. Check the Galaxy Wearable app to install any available software updates, turn off unnecessary earbud LED lights, and consider lowering ANC settings or switching to adaptive mode to conserve power.
If you continue to experience the same behavior after trying these troubleshooting steps, please reach out to our Samsung Support Team. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us understand your experience. Thank you for reaching out to Samsung. -Ty

Maybe it's my own ears, but these things don't stay in. I can't count how many times they've fallen out onto the floor and made a horrible, high-pitched noise that doesn't go away until they go back into their charger. They feel like garbage when they do they stay in. The sound is fine, but when the trash doesn't fit well in my ear, plenty of other sound gets in, so the noise-canceling feature, which might be quite effective, is rendered useless. And the controls to pause or adjust volume are bad. Try to turn the volume up and you'll probably stop what you're listening to. Try to pause something and nothing happens at all. The pinch feature is straight-up trash. I wish Jabra still made earbuds

Greetings supersamuel,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro. These earbuds provide rich sound, advanced noise cancellation, and customizable touch controls in a compact design. We understand that issues such as slipping, feedback noise, and inconsistent pinch controls have impacted your overall experience. A proper fit is crucial for optimizing sound quality, comfort, and security, especially during activities like jogging.
The Galaxy Buds3 Pro come with various ear tip sizes. Choosing the right size is important to eliminate gaps between your ear and the ear tip, which helps enhance audio quality. To ensure you wear them correctly, follow these steps:
1. Check for the L (left) and R (right) directional marks on the earbuds. 2. Insert the R bud into your right ear and the L bud into your left ear, making sure they face forward. 3. Angle them slightly so the microphone is directed towards your mouth. 4. Adjust by rotating the earbuds until they feel comfortable and secure.
You can also perform an earbud fit test to confirm a proper fit. For more information on achieving the ideal fit, please check out the online article linked below. Your detailed feedback provides us with valuable insights into how these features perform during everyday use. Thank you for sharing your experience with Samsung.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these things. Galaxy AI works flawlessly. The sound quality is great. My favorite feature is the audio pass thru. I can listen to anything while also keeping awareness of my surroundings. The touch controls are really good too. Easily adjust volume.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been looking for a heavy hitting, solid in ear bud for a looooong time, was doubtful on these reading reviews but decided to look for myself and I'm so glad I did. Perfection is all I can say. Fits perfect, sound is exemplary, features are extensive. I can't list it all. I'm actually on the fence on upgrading to the buds4 because I haven't found a single flaw in the 3 pro.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only two issues with it:
1. The latest software update is causing automatic noise canceling to disable with a pop sound after ending the call. 2. This is about ergonomic, i feel like an earphone should be easily be put into the case without looking into it for alignment which i guess is fixed in buds4 pro.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used alot of samsung phones in the past and changed back from iphones in 2024. With the new ai update everything feels better navigating the Bluetooth options for the buds. They are good and loud. And we're on sale when I got them. Ive had them for about a year.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my buds 3 since they came out and have worked amazingly. Sound quality, battery life, noise cancellation all perfect. But, I cannot give it 5 stars as from time to time the headphone case refuses to charge the right bud which can be frustrating as I use them often for work and forced to use one bud.

Hey there Beastybud, Thank you for sharing your experience with your Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro offer impressive sound quality, dependable battery life, and effective noise cancellation. However, it can be inconvenient if the case occasionally leaves the right earbud uncharged, especially when you rely on them throughout the workday. If you notice that your earbud is not charging, please reach out to our Samsung Support Team for assistance with options such as warranty services. Additionally, if you would like to take your buds in for a review, you can visit a uBreakiFix, an authorized Samsung repair location, where a technician can examine them and offer a possible solution. Your feedback helps Samsung continue to refine the charging experience. Thank you for being part of the Samsung community. -Ty
