    Excellent purchase.

    Initially, I was hesitant as this was my first time purchasing a refurbished electronic device. However, I am pleased to report that neither Best Buy nor Samsung disappointed me. With each upgrade, the sound quality of the Galaxy earbuds continues to improve. They are constructed with durable materials and have an appealing design, all at half the original price. If you are on a budget, I highly recommend purchasing these refurbished earbuds. Well done, Best Buy.

    Perfect

    I'm current using an S23 Ultra for over a year i was using airpods. I decided to treat myself to a birthday gift and purchase these galaxy buds3 im blown away by the quality and features. The airpods didnt play nice with my ultra sometimes it would randomly play songs or hang up calls. They galaxy buds are top notch. A lot of useful features my favorite just speaking commands such as hang up phone or answer call. Next I'll up grade to the galaxy buds3 pro just for the white led light on the buds. I think the led is sick. I'd definitely recommend these. If you buy them refurbished you'll save a lot of money.
