I upgraded to these from the Samsung Galaxy buds 2. Battery is not as good. They are temperamental with charging...often stating that the buds are damp. Comfort is not as great either, as they have a little stem that makes them sit proud of the ear. Whereas the buds 2 sat inside comfortably. I have to wear a headband to keep them in while running. Noise level is fine, about the same. And the connectivity is also good. They have good features like volume control by stroking the little stem, or pinching it to pause music. I stopped using them in favour of shokks

These are nice earbuds however they do slip out of your ears sometimes so be careful not to lose them but their sound quality and durability are great. It has a good microphone too especially when in noisy places the person on the other will hear you clearly.

I brought the ear buds as part of an bundle (tablet, keyboard & buds 3) i was looking forward to wear them. On day 1 the roght one keeps falling out - i looked at youtube videos, followed instructions (twisting it etc) and it still keeps falling. For a product that costs £150+ I would expect something better

I would give 5 stars but haven't because the charging case was too easy to scratch dropped the case once and ended up with a hideous scratch. I have had other Samsung buds, live and buds 2 and never had this problem with the case. I now have a cover for the case which I shouldn't have had to buy but hey ho. The buds I cannot fault they are great. Connectivity, sound, comfort is great! The sound is as good as over ear headphones. If you use the right size fitting for your ears they remain comfortable. I walk to work on a noisy road and the noise cancelling blanks out the noise so I can hear my music/conversations clearly. Initially I didn't like the stalks as this was a deviation from the buds design but I think this makes them remain connected at a distance from your device. Battery life is good get about 5hrs out of them I think not sure as I usually put them back in the case before I run out of battery life. Overall very satisfied with them.

I bought these a while ago and found them very difficult to keep in my ears. I thought it was user error but having persevered, watched numerous videos etc I still can't get them to stay in. Now too late to return so effectively a complete waste of money for me and I wish now I had not kept trying to get them to fit. Also been trying to find a silicon cover which might make them stay in easier but no luck on that front either - I love Samsung products in general but this has one has really let me down badly.......

Purchased as replacement for Buds Live. If honest, my wife prefers the fit of the Galaxy buds live to these, as these tend to slip and fall out. As not a proper fit, the active noise cancellation, is not that great, when compared to my Buds 3 pro, which has the tips so helps stay seating in the ear. Sound is good, case is good and decent usage time once charged.

We're saddened to hear that you're experiencing some irritation in your ears when you're wearing your Galaxy Buds3, Ricards. This isn't what we'd expect as the Buds3 are designed with a thoroughly tested ergonomic shape, which is intended for easy, all-day wear and minimal ear canal pressure. A comfortable fit relies on correct positioning within the outer ear, and the key to comfort and stability is the angle of the blade. Angle the blade slightly so that the microphone on the bottom points towards your mouth rather than straight down, and make small adjustments by rotating the earbud forwards or backwards until it feels comfortable and securely positioned in your ear. The following link contains a guide, along with a helpful diagram to ensure a comfortable fit: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/how-to-wear-and-use-the-galaxy-buds3-and-buds3-pro/ We hope this information is helpful to you, and we appreciate the time you have taken to share your review. ^EW at Samsung Support

Not great. I bought these for my wife to replace an old pair. They fit fine but that’s where the positives end. The sound quality is poor with vocals being far to night and actually hurting your ears. I have altered all sound settings on the device and the streaming platforms, but still high tones on vocals. The noise cancelling doesn’t work very well either compared to others I have used. Very disappointing.

I bought these on release day back in July 2024. Ever since them every 6 months 1 of the earbuds goes extremely low that they have to be sent back to Samsung to be repaired. 18 months later its now my 3rd time having to send these off again. Every time I complain about it they only suggest sending off. Decent pair of headphones, not the best fit. Honestly wouldnt waste time getting them may be the Galaxy Bud Pros are better...

I like the look of these compared to most others. The only real thing in their favour is the battery life. Controls are on par too. The little good is far outweighed by the terrible. I can't say that I have had a set of earphones worse than these. Anything past standing statue still dislodge these. And even that is too much movement at times. Constantly have to push these back in which is an absolute irritation. The noise cancelling feature is not that either. You has better effect in putting a sift over ones ears. I live in London and use the Underground regularly. Pointless to even have music on while commuting. Leave alone listen to a podcast. That is if these don't get dislodged by the movement of the Underground. After a few months of using these I ended up with a ringing sound while moving with these. I then had to turn ANC off altogether. Im a fan of things Samsung and hold many of products of this brand. I will never buy a set of earphones again though. I even had ti thin twice before purchasing a new television. Real poor for the brand.

Honestly, don't know why everyone is so furious about the buds3. Sound quality is absolutely banging, the bass is so powerful. Samsung weren't lying when they said "feel the beat"! Everyone seems to be complaining about the fit. I initially had issues when I first got them, and they did actually fall out of my ears for a bit. They took getting used to, but now I find the fit is very snug. If they feel loose, I recommend taking them out and twist them back in. Angling them slightly forwards does help as well. 360 audio is pretty good, and there are lots of settings to customise the buds. Only complaint is the design. I like the case, but the buds themselves look a bit strange. Noise cancelling doesn't do much, but that can be expected in earphones without tips. Overall a pretty good job! (It's fine, I don't need an AI generated response to this!)

The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 offer an impressive combination of sound quality, comfort, and smart features. The audio is clear and well-balanced, with deep bass and crisp highs that make both music and calls sound excellent. The active noise cancellation works surprisingly well for their size, blocking out most background noise without distorting the sound. The design is sleek and modern, with a comfortable fit that stays secure even during workouts. The new touch controls are more responsive than before, and the integration with the Galaxy ecosystem (like seamless switching between devices and voice assistant support) makes them perfect for Samsung users. Battery life is solid—around 5–6 hours per charge, with the case providing multiple recharges. The fast charging feature is also a big plus, giving you an hour of listening time after just a few minutes of charging. On the downside, some features work best within Samsung’s ecosystem, so if you use another brand of phone, you might miss out on a few perks. Also, while the case looks premium, it can get scratched easily. Overall, the Galaxy Buds3 are a top choice for anyone looking for stylish, high-quality wireless earbuds with excellent sound and smart features.

After only having the earbuds for 7 months, and only using them intermittently. The left bud is unbelievably quiet (on full volume/battery etc) to the point I can barely hear anything from it. The right one works fine but the left appears to have blown. Not what I would of expected 😕 I have checked the Bluetooth settings on my s24 ultra and gear fit 3 as well as on the wearable app and there are no issues there. Hugely frustrating as im sure I will need to find a replacement but it will likely not be a Samsung product due to this issue 😕 When both earbuds were working they were very good quality with crisp sound and good noise cancelling ability. Sadly it didn't last.

I just can't fit them in my ears. They are not comfortable at all. I even can't tell nothing about sound because when I put them on i still have space between ear and bud. Luckily I received that as gift, otherwise I had to be so angry paying over a hundred of pounds. I was happy first when I received them and disappointed later.

These are the worst buds i have ever had. I had the buds live prior to this and they were so much better. I genuinely cant find a single thing better with this new product. The bosses must have been on holiday when this design got signed off. The case is larger and too thin and therefore unbalanced. When open, it falls over as the lid throws thw balance off. The headphones themselves are not as comfy and are so loose in your ear. They arent uncomfortable but i cant believe that they didnt fall out of people's ears during testing. The slightest touch for control use and they fall out. The sound quality is ok but because of the loose fit i think it could be improved. Thr battery of the case is so much worse than the old one too and seems to only charge them twice when i got loads of charges out of the older ones but the biggest problem i have is 'moisture'. Every single time i use them they then dont charge for ages claiming there's moisture in the case or on the buds themselves when there absolutely isnt and the poor design of the case means you cant clean the contacts. So you then just can't charger your headphones. Samsung should refund or replace every pair of these that they sold to customers. Do not buy.

I have had my buds for over a year, the right one has lost sound quality and both have lost volume. They have to be on maximum setting to hear anything. They fitted well and when they were working they worked well, noise cancelling was quite good, they just did not last so probably won't any more.

We are disheartened to see your Buds3 are not working to perfection, Robert. Sometimes a build up of dirt can stop sound coming through the Galaxy Buds, please try cleaning your Galaxy Buds. You can follow these steps to do that safely: 1. Remove the ear tip from the earbud carefully. Don't use force to remove the ear tip. 2. Clean the sensor, mesh and ear tip with a clean, soft cloth. 3. Clean the receiver with a cotton swab and dry brush to remove any foreign materials. 4. Reattach the ear tip onto the earbud when you've finish cleaning. Please note: do not use liquids, such as alcohol or soapy water, when cleaning the Galaxy Buds. If the issue continues, we'd recommend contacting our Support Teams who will get your Buds working again.

Galaxy Buds 3, best advice is to not buy these. However I received a set free as a promotional offer when purchasing a Galaxy S25 Edge. Not that great an offer after all, looks like Samsung have been dumping this flawed product as an extra inducement. If you get a set free I'd suggest not unwrapping them as they could be used as a present. As for the buds themselves I've found they are not really practical for everyday use as they provide no isolation from the outside world and the noise cancellation just makes music sound flat, without any noticeable noise cancellation. There are some positives though. Out of the box I found the sound quality really good. The fit I found comfortable. They do feel as though they are loose but still sit securely, even walking about. None of the constant fiddling I found with my usual in-ears. Very light. They can be a bit fiddly getting out of the box and into ears, or out without triggering the touch controls. I haven't got to grip with the controls yet. Connectivity is good, connected to my (old) S20FE no problem without the app installed and the range seems very good, I've walked into the house leaving the phone outside without any loss of signal. Battery seems ok but I've not used for more than 90 minutes and I like wireless charging. 360 audio is a bit strange but it did improve the balance on some 1960's music where the stereo wasn't quite right. ANC as I've mentioned is useless. Can't comment on call quality because I have no friends to call. So all in all a very flawed product, which is a shame because the sound is great. Only really usable in quiet environments or where you can't listen through speakers. For most of the time I'll use my 5 years old, non-ANC Soundcore earphones which only cost £35 but throw these in my pocket occasionally as the case is a fair bit smaller.

I received these headphone free with my Samsung Laptop. I'm sorry Samsung but these Buds3 are so poorly designed I cannot recommend them unless you receive them as a free gift. I own several high end earbuds and over ear headphones from Bowers and Wilkins and Bang and Olufsen, which some are older generation tech by 5 to 6 years but still out perform these. My wife's Buds FE another freebie even put the Buds3 to shame. The only positive is the easy connectivity with other Samsung products but sonically they are let down by poor fit and not being able to get a proper seal within the ear, as they don't have conventional tips, plus they just don't stay put as soon as you have any bodily movement and that includes eating you lose an already weak bass and the midrange just thins out. I bought some silicone socks for the Buds3 from Amazon which improved the sonic performance 10 fold to the point I actually started to appreciate the clear separation of the mids and highs especially with vocals and the bass seemed tighter with more control at the expense of lower ranges. As with most earbuds the soundstage can be a little shallow or even claustrophobic but with the help of the silicone socks the sound stage opened up just enough to get a grasp of where instruments were coming from. The downside with the aftermarket socks is you can't charge the buds in the charging case, you have to remove them and refit once charged and it's an utter pain. As I'm not a big fan of Active Noise cancellation I can only comment that it appeared weaker than the anc on the Buds FE and I would put that down to poor sealing So there is away to improve the sonic performance and fit but its to go the aftermarket route and that has its own drawbacks. I note that the new Buds3 FE are of a conventional tip design like the Buds3 Pro so maybe Samsung have realised that there is a fundamental issue with it's design. Maybe Samsung if you create some aftermarket boots that allow charging you may get some positive reviews on the Buds3. If they come free with a Samsung purchase that's great, but please think carefully before you part with your hard earned cash.

I would give these a Zero if i could. Starting with functionality of controls - they are terrible, answering calls remotely/ ending them is almost impossible. On the odd occasion I answer a call Connectivity - Not sure if this is since recent software upgrade on wearable app, they will not connect for longer than 3/5 seconds. No amount of resetting, repairing etc fixes the issues. A pair of £5 no brand purchase from eBay is more consistent/ better in performance.

After using 2 sets of Buds Live (The Beans) had to "upgrade" to these ones as those are obsolete now, but what a nightmare. They are made of very poor quality plastic, their case is very bulky compared with Buds Live, and even though a newer iteration, they are not charging with my fast 15W charger, I have to use an older 5W one especially for them (didn't have this issue with Buds Live even though they were much older), the touch area is very difficult to reach on the stems without removing them from your ears and last but not least, they don't fit well in my years, they are way to bulky and on the slightest move they are falling out. Also, I still wasn't able to connect them to a Samsung Tab or one of the latest iteration of Samsung TVs, they are simply not seen. I could try to install Wearable and so on, but what a faff, the Beans were just working. On top of this they are randomly disconnecting from my S24, the only device they are actually accepting. Only real merit is that after so many times dropping from my ears in a sink full of water, they are still working...

Great sound, when they fit! Tried to persevere with them for months now. Bloody awful design. Never stay in the ear. Always moving and falling out. Tried the Pro and they are brilliant. These ones however. Samsung, why would you release a product that is just awful at staying in the ear. I strongly recommend you to avoid and go for the Pro.

We are disheartened to read that, although you are happy with the top-quality sound of the Galaxy Buds3, you don't enjoy them as much as the Galaxy Buds3 Pro because they don't stay in your ears. We would like to reassure you that the Galaxy Buds3 boast our new angular design, which has been meticulously crafted based on 3D ear data to check for wearability and comfort, Lance.

Purchased 2 x S25's and 1 x S25 Ultra. These were free with the purchases and I can see why. I'm sure the noise cancelling and sound quality are great if you can use these things. They are an horrendous fit and literally just fall out of the ear. I have had buds before and they fitted well but this design is rubbish. Even resorted to the Samsung video to see if there was a piece missing (rubber tips) but no, they are just not user friendly. Feel very sorry for people who purchased these and lost them when starting. Obviously getting rid of second rate stock which is not fit for purpose.

my experience has been a mixed bag, largely defined by the open-ear design. If you're someone who absolutely cannot stand in-ear earbuds with silicone tips, then these might be a viable option, as they are genuinely comfortable for long periods. The call quality is truly excellent, which is a huge plus for me. However, the fit is a constant battle. They feel insecure, frequently shift, and I'm always worried about them falling out, especially when I'm moving around. This insecurity also directly impacts the sound quality, making the audio inconsistent and often lacking the bass presence I desire. And let's be clear: the ANC is practically non-existent on this model. While they sound decent for an open-ear design, you're paying a premium for features that don't fully translate due to the fit. If a secure fit and effective noise cancellation are priorities, you'll likely be disappointed and should consider a different model, perhaps even the Buds 3 Pro if an in-ear fit works for you.

I am really disappointed with my purchase. The product information sounded ideal and with the price I expected a quality product. The buds are a really poor fit and won’t stay within my ear. I nearly lost one whilst out walking just pulling my hood up. Tried to return them but understandably I was told I couldn’t as they’d been used. Checked if I could pay extra and buy ear tips for a more secure fit but was told this wasn’t possible. Really disappointed. Feels like wasted money
