Introduction.
I bought the Samsung Buds 3 Pro about a year ago, so I have had plenty of time to test them thoroughly. My experience has been a mix of excellent technology and frustrating design choices.
Sound Quality & Features In terms of audio, these earbuds are excellent. I frequently use the high-quality audio feature (Samsung’s 24-bit Hi-Fi codec), and the sound is crisp and detailed. I also really liked the Ear Fit Test. When I tried it, it was genuinely helpful in identifying which ear tip size gave me the best seal. This directly improved the Noise Cancellation feature, blocking out background noise effectively once the fit was right.
Accessibility & Screen Reader Performance For accessibility, the Galaxy Wearable app is very polished and works seamlessly with Samsung screen readers (TalkBack), making it easy to adjust settings. However, there is a major conflict with the 360 Audio / Spatial Audio feature. When I turn this on, it does not work well with the screen reader. It creates a weird, distracting echo in the screen reader’s voice, making navigation difficult. Because of this, I keep Spatial Audio turned off.
Battery Life The battery performance is solid. I get around 20 hours or more of total use with the case. However, it is worth noting that if you enable the “High Quality” audio features or Noise Cancellation constantly, the battery drains faster.
The Major Flaw: Design & Ear Tips While the tech is great, the hardware design has a serious flaw: the ear tips. Changing the tips is a nightmare. The silicone is fragile, and the locking mechanism is too tight. When I tried to swap the earpiece, it tore immediately because it is so easy to cut. To make matters worse, replacements are hard to find in stores, and when I finally found them, they were incredibly expensive.
Comparison: Samsung vs. Apple Compared to the Apple AirPods Pro, the difference in comfort is clear.
•
AirPods: Better ear tip design, easier to change, and honestly more comfortable in the ear for long periods.
•
Samsung: Great features, but the physical fit and tip durability are lacking.
Final Verdict
•
Samsung Buds 3 Pro: 7 out of 10
•
Apple AirPods: 9 out of 10
Final Note. In the end, every product has its pros and cons. While the sound and accessibility app are great, the fragility of the ear tips is a big disappointment. This is just my personal opinion and every ear is different, but I wanted to share the main good and bad points I noticed to help others decide.
