      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on the Galaxy Buds3, Gustavo! We always look forward to hearing from our customers. We're glad to see that you have been enjoying the buds! The Buds3 comes with a new Bladed design mixed with superb sound. Our new angular design has been meticulously crafted based on 3D ear data collected from a computational design tool to check for wearability. The Galaxy Buds3 are designed to optimize sound quality while minimizing pressure in the ear canal, making them ideal for everyday use. If your Buds3 feel uncomfortable, you might not be wearing them correctly, as they are open-type earbuds without tips. To wear them properly, check the bottom for directional markings—L for left and R for right. Insert the R bud into your right ear with the R facing you, and the L bud into your left ear with the L facing you. Adjust the angle slightly so that the microphone points toward your mouth, and feel free to rotate the buds forward and backward until you find a comfortable fit. We hope this helps, and if you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out to us at Support. -Kelvin Samsung

    I do not like these earbuds. I ended up returning them. They do not fit in my ears and they are very uncomfortable. The noise cancelling sucks. I can hear everything around me with them in my ears and playing. Overall I do not like them. The buds fe are cheaper and a better option.

      Thanks for reaching out to share your experience with the Galaxy Buds3 with us, Emily. If you've upgraded to a new phone or want to switch the devices your earbuds are connected to, you may need to manually restart your Samsung earbuds, which can also help if the earbuds are unresponsive. To restart them, simply insert the earbuds into the charging case, close the lid, wait at least seven seconds, and then remove the earbuds; they will restart and automatically reconnect to your device. You can also use the Galaxy Wearable app—just navigate to it on your connected phone, ensure both earbuds are connected, and test your Buds for normal operation. Samsung products come with a warranty against manufacturing defects for a limited 12-month period, and there's also the option to add extra coverage with Samsung Care+ on eligible devices for additional protection and support. If you are still experiencing challenges with noise cancellation, you may need to reach out to us at Support so that we can further assist you. We hope that this helps! For any further concerns or questions, do not hesitate to reach out to us at Support. -Kelvin Samsung

    Surprised that these hurt my ears with the fit...plan on returning. Don't like the pinch function, I feel like they fall out when you try to use that function to pause, play, turn on/off ANC, etc.

Your feedback allows us to remain committed to constant innovation as we strive to improve the design and functionality of our product line. Our goal is for our customers to feel like they are having the most marvelous experiences when using our products. Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on our products for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. If you're wearing your earbuds properly, you'll get better sound quality from them, they'll fit more comfortably, and they'll stay in your ears. Wearing them improperly can cause discomfort, sound leaks, and makes them more likely to fall out. No one wants to lose an earbud, especially while out jogging, so be sure to wear them with the proper fit. Being that the Galaxy Buds3 are open-type buds rather than canal types, so they do not have earbud tips. All you have to do to get started is simply place them in your ears. 1. Check the bottom of the earbuds for directional marks. You will see an L and an R. 2. Insert the R bud into your right ear with the R facing you. 3. Insert the L bud into your left ear with the L facing you. 4. Angle the blade slightly so that the microphone on the bottom is pointing towards your mouth rather than straight down. 5. You can adjust the buds by rotating them forwards and backwards until the fit feels right.

    Great set of earbuds

    These are a great set of earbuds. They sure deliver in major ways. I love the clear yet detailed sound quality these have. The fit is also great. Ive tried them with the noise canceling and they do block some noise even if they are open ear design. Last the design even though an apple copy cat i can say these are just as good if not better than apples airpods 3. If you have always loved apple earbuds design youll love these. Only these hold the edge.

    Not worth the price.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    These aren't great and for the price point there are several companies that do this better in every single way. Not only do they not fit well at all but they are extremely uncomfortable. The fit leaves space between you and the outside world to the point of noise suppression not even doing anything. Ambient noise swarmed every aspect of these headphones. It took me 24 hours to give up on them. I tried everything that I could to get them to fit but couldn't. They are horrible headphones. Here is to hoping that the Pro version is better.
