I was using over-ear headphones (WH-1000XM5), but due to heat buildup and ear sweat, I wanted something more comfortable while still being as close as possible to that over-ear sound experience. I decided to try the Buds Pro 3, and honestly, I’m kind of in love with them.The ANC is excellent for earbuds. Not just “good for their size,” but genuinely effective. They get loud, the sound is crystal clear with a proper hi-fi feel, and the bass is seriously impressive for something this small. It hits deep without being muddy, which really surprised me.I’m using them with an S24 Ultra and Watch 7, and the ecosystem integration is flawless. Fast pairing, seamless switching, and everything just works without fiddling around. That alone makes a huge difference day to day.Microphone quality is also very solid. I’ve been on phone calls for hours with different people, and no one has complained about background noise or clarity. Everyone hears me clearly, even in less-than-ideal environments.Battery life has been great so far. I’ve been using them for about 2–3 weeks now, including a short trip of around 3–4 hours where I barely took them out, and I’ve never had them die on me. I also really like the smart features: when you start speaking, the music pauses and ANC turns off automatically, which is super convenient. There’s also a sound detection feature for things like police sirens or ambulances, pausing the music to alert you when you’re out walking. Small details, but genuinely useful.One odd thing I noticed is a faint smell when new. It’s hard to describe, kind of a metallic or battery-like smell. There’s no heating, leakage, or performance issues, so it seems harmless, but worth mentioning.Finally, they are very slippery. Both the buds and the case. I’d strongly recommend getting a protective case, especially if you’re prone to dropping things.Overall, fantastic earbuds. Comfortable, powerful sound, great ANC, excellent ecosystem integration, and packed with smart features. Highly recommended, especially if you’re moving away from over-ear headphones due to comfort issues.

Excellent value for money on amazon bought at a discounted price. Premium build design with elegant yet tough appearance. Lovely professional look in this striking silver colour. Not much heavier than a normal charger pod. Very,very easy to pair. Battery life is exceptional. Sound quality is second to none , never used earphones with enough bass to rival headphonez, so they are indeed very bassy. Music is an integral part of my life and i am so glad i got these. Works excellent with my S25 ULTRA , all i need i a smart watch from samsung and i have the full set. Item is just a little larger than a matches box.

First time paying for the “higher end” ear buds. For past 5 years I’ve used cheap mpow ear buds and they’re brilliant and cost about fifty quid. These were 3 times the price and feel like a cheap knock off of mpow. The battery life is laughable at about 4 hours, and the case battery life is also incredibly poor at around 2 days. They are also very difficult to get a comfortable and secure fit, constantly slipping out and are frustrating when trying to wear whilst running or exercising. The sound quality is okay, I’d say it’s average at best, was really expecting a much better quality of sound and definitely expecting more control of the settings, it is very very limited and quite poor. I’d say the only positive I have for them is they’re very light and have no connection issues. 100% wouldn’t recommend for the price, I’d be happy to pay £40-£50 for these at a push

Excellent sound quality and usability. Fit well in the ears and remain stable when running, not too bulky with a nice design. connection range to phone is very good too.
