3:24 I got AirPods Pro before they came out well before Buds 3. Sure, I can't do firmware updates as I have no other Apple devices, but they aren't doing too badly. Now that Buds 3 series finally also have a stemmed design (purely a form-factor consideration), I can ditch the Apple products completely, now that my iPod Classic no longer works.
I’m currently using AirPods Pro 2 because they have mini tips that fit well as I have small ear canals. How do the smallest tips on the Earbuds 3 Pro compare to the AirPod mini tips?
Great review. I'm a Samsung user through and through, but it's sad that there aren't many variety of casings in the market. Do you think the airpod pro's casing fit the samsung bud 3 pro's?
I'm hoping they're better sound quality wise. The buds2 pro never really impressed me sound quality wise. They were "just ok". I was coming from soundcore liberty 3 pro which sound amazing but had issues with the wings slipping around. The B2P fit well and had decent features, the integration was nice, but they had their share of things I didn't love.
The reason I've been using app2 on my android phone were for 2 reasons. The stem design is perfect for my ears, and second the noise transparency/ambient mode is world class, the absolute best I've ever heard on earbuds, and that feature alone is worth the price of admission for me. good to know transparency is good on buds pro 3, now I can have native buds again
Great video comparison. Quick question, though. Are the Buds3 Pro and the Airpods Pro ear tips interchangeable? I just want to know because that would mean the Airpod comply foam tips would be compatible with Buds3 Pro.
Hi, I currently have the Oppo enco X2 and I don't know if I should change them for the buds 3 pro as regards the audio quality, is the audio quality of the Samsung buds 3 pro better?
How do they work with the Pixel phones? What do we lose and is it even worth it. Before Nothing all I used was Samsung pros (always hurting my ears) the stick style is a dream and I have to have these buds. Thanks and praise for your fantastic reviews 🙏🏼
How good is the ANC on Samsung buds 3 pro? I sleep in airpods pro because of construction noise outside and use them with Z fold 5. I'm looking to replace them with those if ANC is as good as in Airpods.
Have you tried replacing the eartips? I went to a local Samsung store to try the galaxy buds pro 3. And ask the employee of the store to replace the ear tips to the bigger one since the one installed was to small for my ear. And she torn the eartips.
So, there is better technology in the galaxy buds pro and more options to control... same story lol. It's just so funny how people just don't want to admit these FACTS. And, I was an Apple user from the beginning until the last two years.
@TechOdyssey: Since you have seen both the buds and pods together, silly question, Can I use the Ear Wings that we get on Amazon for Air pods on Galaxy Buds 3 Pro as the Buds 3 pro falls off my ears and no ear wings are available yet for Buds 3 pro?
Omg I lost one of my AirPods at the airport a few months ago so in the meantime I was trying to use my pixel buds until I got a new one. Ridiculous!!! 😅😅😅
You have to remember reasons why some people buy these to begin with. For me, sound quality, full controls, ANC and transparency mode. With those 4 things in mind, the AirPod pros lead the pack regardless of which phone you have. So having said that, there’s plenty of reasons to get the AirPod on a galaxy phone. So bad I wanted the Sony xm5 for my galaxy phone but the lack of controls was a deal breaker. The AirPods had everything I was looking for. Almost 2 years later now and no buyers remorse at all.
@@tytownsend8219 Well both yes and no. The Airpods came out during the XM4 time and so it was more like I chose the AP over the XM4. Having said that, when the 5's came out, I was going to get them but their lack of controls on the earbuds was a deal breaker for me. I even contacted Sony during the early XM4 days hoping for a firmware update but never heard anything. I expected the 5's to have better control but I was wrong. As much as I wanted the Sony's, I just couldn't do it with the lack of FULL controls on the earbuds.
Nope. I never knew. I’ve had all three versions too. I just asked my wife if she knew and she was surprised too. Learn something new every day I guess.
do the galaxy buds 3 pro have a little haptic feedback whenever you play/pause on the stem? pretty minor thing but I always liked that on my airpods pro gen 1. I have some buds 3 pro on the way, but they won't be here till the 24th.
The so called Samsung buds pro good for Android and Apple pros for iOS can't compete with the Sony & Bose (which are good for both Android and Apple/iOS) which is double bonus!
Sooner or later, samsung was gonna copy airpods. To many people have samsung phones, but use airpods. One advantage samsung got over apple is, samsung gives you choices when it comes to certain things. Samsung got 3-4 different types of earbuds & apple got 2.
Samsung again letting people order Buds and saying they are quality checking them, so your order will not be delivered. They will update you over the next few weeks!!! Yest they're still selling them on Samsung!
I kind of disagree a little about it being a waste to use aap2 on Android. Yes you do lose features. But out of the box you can switch between ambience/anc by holding down on the bud. And swiping the stems for volume is great I've overall really loved my aap2 i got a few months ago. I'm still getting the buds 3 pro of course but i think aap2 are better then people give them credit for. I do use it with my ipad mini sometimes which is a better experience then on Android but i still use them for Android alot.
@@serrael-182 it's amazing how something so simple like swipe controls on stems for music volume control and single press and hold for switching between ANC and ambience works so well. You can pause and skip of course too. That and the fact that the ANC and ambience on the aap2 is really good. I'm excited to see how the buds pro 3 compare to them.
@@TechOdyssey i just bought moondrop headphones cuz i lost mine and the ones i like better than those in sound cost 200€. (Theyre amazing for their price) Jabra elite 10 are now at150€. Tempting but again i lost my old ones and im not taking that risk for any buds over 100.
Samsung always is great with sound quality. I just wish they didn't look so much like the air pods. If I wanted air pods, that's what I would have bought.
Bro people only see what they want to see there are so many unique futures and designs on the samsung buds that make them so much apart , I myself hate the sound signature on apple products ( i kno I know to me they don't sound good enough for 250 ) I tried theirs 500 dollar headphones and they wore so baad that I took them off my head .

@@TechOdyssey i want to make it known that I didn’t have much time to comment, so my bad. But people do use cheaper ear buds with fancy phones, it’s an irrelevant fact.
I will never purchase either of these because Samsung and Apple decided to be super sleezy and withhold features from anyone who doesn't buy their matching phone. Especially when buds like the Jabra Elite 10 and Jabra Elite 8 Active give you all the same features regardless of what brand of phone you have. They get my money even though I have an Iphone because my work computer is a PC and I love being able to seamlessly switch audio sources without having to do anything at all.
