The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are part of Samsung's long awaited third generation of earbuds, and with a radical design change, it seems it may well have been worth the wait. The Galaxy Buds 2 were my daily-driver buds ever since they launched in 2021, all the way up until 2024.

I reviewed the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and found them to be very ugly. Objectively speaking, these Samsung wireless earphones were very impressive. I was particularly surprised by their Active Noise Cancellation performance. Does that justify the $249 price tag?

If you're in the market for new wireless earbuds and are part of Samsung’s ecosystem, the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are a strong contender for your consideration. They might not be the most original in design, but they bring some much-needed improvements to Samsung's earbud lineup.

The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro are great for traveling. They're portable and comfortable to wear. The buds come equipped with fantastic ANC and passive isolation to block out airplane cabin din and passenger chit-chat.

I’ll be honest, when Samsung revealed two sets of earbuds that bear resemblance to two models of AirPods, I wasn’t expecting much in terms of performance. However, the company certainly surprised me.

Today in Paris, at Galaxy Unpacked 2024 , Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Ring ($399) smart ring, Galaxy Watch 7 ($299) and Watch Ultra ($649) smartwatches, Galaxy Z Flip6 ($1,099) flip-style and Z Fold6 ($1,899) book-style folding phones, and the Galaxy Buds3 ($179) and Buds3 Pro ($249) true-wireless...

The company’s latest flagship earbuds might lack originality, but they nail sound quality, transparency mode, and voice call performance.

The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are a premium, accomplished design that delivers excellent sound and superb noise cancellation performance when paired with a Samsung phone of recent manufacture.

The Buds3 Pro are a significant step up over the regular Buds3, mostly because the latter are quite unimpressive. On sale, the Pros are around $250, which fits well with their overall performance, bordering on a decent deal if you have other Samsung gear.

“The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are a huge upgrade for Samsung fans.”
