[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great sound and sleek design These earbuds sound crisp and full, with surprisingly good bass for their size. Noise cancellation blocks out most background hum, and the transparency mode feels natural when I need to hear my surroundings. The fit is comfortable for long use, and the case is compact and charges quickly. Touch controls are responsive without being overly sensitive. Battery life easily lasts through a workday of calls and music. Overall, a well-designed, reliable pair of earbuds.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ​First off, the comfort is incredible. I can wear these for an entire cross-country flight without any ear fatigue. ​But let's talk about the sound. It's truly breathtaking. The bass is deep and rich without being muddy, and the treble is crystal clear—I'm hearing nuances in my favorite albums I've never noticed before! Whether I'm listening to high-energy EDM or quiet audiobooks, the audio is perfectly balanced. ​The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is a total game-changer. It completely silences the roar of my morning commute and allows me to find focus even in a busy coffee shop. The Bluetooth connection is also rock-solid—it paired instantly with my phone and laptop and has never dropped. ​If you're looking for a top-tier listening experience, stop searching. These headphones offer premium features and incredible performance. They're reliable, comfortable, and they sound phenomenal. Highly, highly recommend!

I'd really give these buds a 4.5 but since I can choose that it's still more of a 5 than 4. My only comment is controlling music and calls from touching the buds. It's not as intuitive as the other version. I'm still trying to master it 4 weeks later. In any case, I find the buds 3 Pro better than all the other versions as far as sound quality, fit, and noise cancellation. They are even better than my Pixel buds which I love.

Upgraded from the pros2 and love the new design. I am a hiker/walker and had an issue with buds2 constantly popping out, had to buy an 'anti-lose' strap to ensure I didn't lose them. The new design fits more securely in my ears and haven't popped/fallen out yet. I also like the 'controls' a lot better, they respond a lot better than those on the pros2, as well as provide better, easier control.

These ear buds exceeded my expectations. Comfort: The wing tips or the plastic buds really helps with staying intact in my ears. They are very comfortable. Audio: The ANC is fantastic. It blocks out outside noise, but at times I get really high pitched reverb. Although, I would not recommend ANC mode when biking or doing outside activity because it really blocks out the sound.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Buds 3 Pro use a dual-driver system: a 10.5 mm woofer + a planar tweeter (on a dual-amplifier design), giving them a much richer, more detailed sound profile than many previous models from the brand. On a compatible Samsung device, you can enable their high-res 24-bit/96 kHz codec (Samsung Seamless Codec, or SSC), which allows for higher-fidelity audio compared with standard Bluetooth codecs like AAC or SBC. Reviewers noted “clear and detailed treble,” “good bass presence,” and “healthy separation” across frequencies, which makes the Buds 3 Pro versatile for different music genres — from bass-heavy tracks to more acoustic or detail-oriented ones.

I have small ears and I always have issues with wireless headphones. I've had ever single pair of Samsung buds except the FE. Besides the original Icons I live these how they fit and sound. I'm sure the FE would've been a nice fit as well with the wing tips but I care about the highest sound quality.

This is another amazing Samsung achievement! I'm a musician, but I didn't use the buds pro to listen music, but these are great. It's a clear sound, great bass. I found the perfect fit for my sensitive ears. I usually do phone calls that can las 2 hours, with the previous buds pro my ears were soar after two hours, but with the pro 3, that doesn't happens.I On the previous pro, I had to ve sure that touch was blocked if not, when trying to accommodate them, I would accidentally hang up the call. The shape, where controls are, make that problem gone. One think against them: do not use the highest volume fir a call, the begin distortion and the microphone doesn't capture my voice well and people complain so limit the volume to half when in a phone call. The noise reduction, adaptive environment, etc. work really great, but you need to setup the right size when you setup for first time following the setup assistant. The extra protective case helps me with the carabiner hook to keep it hanging outside my bag really and easy to find, because the previous one would olay games with me hiding themselves in a hide corner at the end of my bag. The best earbuds Samsung has made!

I love the Buds 3 Pro! Upgraded from original Buds Pro, and it is a huge upgrade. The new design is so much better for weight distribution. This leads to a more secure feel in the ear and no worries of the "old heavy ball" falling out of the ear, as was the case with the originals. The sound and controls have always been great, but I do like the Buds 3 having an actual button on each instead of just sensors. Gone are the days of accidental actuation of their functions. Great job Samsung!

I'm still getting use to the various gestures but I'm completely pleased with the sound and the features I've uncovered so far. I have not been about to get a "pass" on the fit test but then this is my 3rd set of different Samsung buds and none have passed the fit test.
