3:47 although yes you do have to solder it you could probably just buy a replacement board and if Samsung really wants to go 1 step further in repairability they could sell it themselves
That board probably has all the info about the buds including serial numbers. I think replacing it would disconnect you from your buds so youll have to reconnect Edit: newest buds can track location and are account tied like apple products
Is not the true … the battery are the same of the Sony XM3 and they are standard. In my sony I have change and upgrade the battery with Varta CP1254 A4 (they’re not cheap but they’re better than the original ones)
@@f4lco021was curious about the price, found them for 12€ per battery. Not cheap, but, considering it goes in your ears, that's not extremely expensive.
The buds+ use a EVE icr1454s not the varta cell like the OG buds. That one is not that readily available, but ifixit us seems to stock them now. There are posts of a few people that had issues sourcing them from elsewhere :)
I got mine delivered way earlier on pre-order, and I am taken aback by this pair of buds. Sure, they copied Apple, so what? The consumer is winning in the end! The repairable design would make batteries be replaced so much easier! The sound is just on par, or maybe sometimes even better than the AirPods Pro that I have, and they work so seamlessly on my Samsung phone, the AI features, and the blade lights are so much cool! I lost them in the dark, and the blade lights helped me locate them. Since these were delivered, I have not using my AirPods Pro at all! Samsung really outdid themselves!
I just got these today and I love them they sound great, and man you don’t realize how compact the parts need to be for both the case and earbud until its taken apart
As someone who has repaired laptops for over 20 years repairability is a massive thing. When a customer brings in a laptop that's uneconomical to repair I offer them a price for it and then repair it so some kid (or adult) can use it for school or home, not all parents can afford a laptop and if you have 3 or 4 kids it can get expensive. The cost of repair is sometimes very minimal but my time isn't cheap, a part costing maybe £10 can take 2-3 hours to fault find and replace and nobody wants to spend £200ish to fix a 10 year old laptop worth £50. Conversely a part costing £300 can be fixed in an hour, it's fault finding that takes the time and then there's often a wait for spare parts because firms like Apple/Samsung lock down the supply chain so I have to find second hand parts. I have a lot of spares but I can't keep a broken laptop from every brand or I wouldn't be able to move for broken laptops.
Just got my pair of these in the mail yesterday. Really digging how they're built quality wise to the Buds 2. The buds 2 had a rubber coating on them that would peel off really easily, and always fell out of my ear. I can see myself using these much longer than the Buds 2
I think the usb-c port issue can be easily fixed with a connector soldered to the board and a connector to the flex cable just 3d print an outer shell and done. completely modular unplug the usb-c and plug a new one in. I did that with my galaxy watch charging cradle.
Hey PRG I also have a mark of my Apple Watch in my wrist though that one’s from a school field trip in a really sunny day, anyway just know that it disappears with time.
Won't matter, they cannot bind speakers usb ports or raw battery cells by serial number. And noone is gonna swap parts soldered to the logic board, that's not worth it financially.
@@Bankroll1223 no, no, that's a good thing. They can't forbid battery replacements this way. Seriously considering these after my airpods die for sure ✌️
Damn, this video just convinced me to get them and s24. I was thinking of trying iPhone 15 and AirPods Pro for a couple years just for a change but that ship has sailed
One time, I tried to repair an iPhone. It was just a nightmare. Putting the battery and the short cord back in its place, as if it was one of those things that if you opened it, everything would not go back to how it was.
A real test to do would be to test if it is possible to replace the board assuming the board comes with the usb-c port on it and still have full functionality
Hope that these types of devices get more repairable over time. I hate how my buds 2 pro became paper weights that samsung themselves won't bother to fix
Could you imagine how amazing it would be if the next gen Galaxy Buds would be released in 2 versions. One normal version with the case and one without the case. Only the ear buds would be sold, so you can keep your old casing and if need be you can upgrade to a newer casing at any time.
Just got mine today.I'm not a fan of any Airpods, they do not sit in my ear well and if I move my jaw and open my mouth up-and-down, they fall out just like almost every other earbud, other than Bose, but after I switched mine to the smaller tips, they stayed in my ear with my mouth moving up-and-down. Around as well, I was shaking my head. I would love to see someone make transparent base cases for these so that you could say slide them out and put them in transfer cases. So you can see the insides kind of like what we did back in the early two thousands, with next telephones, we took out all the insides, moved them to a clear case
Are you gonna do a transparent mod for the Galaxy Buds3 Pro like what you did for the S23 Ultra? Or maybe give them a frosted look like the Beats Studio Buds+?
I’m pretty sure, according to my little bit of research, the Galaxy buds 3 and buds 3 pro are actually somehow compatible with iPhones, however you do lose out of some features. But with how cool the buds 3 look, I’d literally be willing to replace my first gen AirPods Pro with galaxy buds 3/3 pro.
you can use it with iphone, just like airpods can be used with android. you do lose some features not using galaxy buds on samsung phones, but nothing too big
I think this applies to any Bluetooth earbuds. I was using 1st gen air pods on my samsung years ago. Dont think companies cab make Bluetooth exclusive besides certain functions
Unfortunately globally they have withheld the release of Buds 3 Pro due to some issues 😢. Mostly it's about the the silicon eartips which are tearing down while trying to remove them.
Omg is really easy. i changed the battery from one bud of my Realme Buds Air Pro. But, now the case battery life is kinda low, but, i will use it until it dies completely. It just involves, opening, disconnecting one cable, separate some glue, desolder the battery, place the new one, and boom, new buds.
2:59 there are entire engines that are both easy to disassemble and watertight, these traits are not mutually exclusive. Also if you want something to be fixable in the long run you dont use Philips screws, you use hex, torx or Robertson, you also dont use adhesive instead of a propper gasket or o ring. This entire product could be held together with bolts, heck the stems could easily unscrew to expose the battery and the end of the bud can also be made to unscrew to get access to the rest.
The case is not waterproof, only the earbuds, they said this at the official page under the point 37 of the disclaimers at the end of the presentation. Anyways this is a nice video 👍
Tried to get this out as soon as possible! Hope you guys enjoyed :)

3:01 actually....the Buds themselves are IP57, the charging case is only IPX2 from what I know
That's correct
Should be easier to make the case ip67 or the same as the buds ip than making the buds that ip rating
can confirm, put em through the laundry by accident, the buds are fine but the case wont charge them :(

I’m giving these Buds3 Pro a try because my last two AirPods Pro developed crackling sounds when transparency or anc are engaged.
ME TOO!!! Its super annoying and only really happens when they move around in my ear with that on
Well they don't work well when using a non samsung phone and the codec is restricted to the s23 to s24 series
I had that with Buds 2 from Samsung, make sure the microphone on the airpod is not dirty.
@ricky1000 the codec is on every samsung phone but the UHQ capability requires a flagship phone with Bluetooth 5.3 which is S23 and later
I have them they’re not bad with my iPhone
Great to see that jerryrig and you uploaded at the same day

All of Samsung's Buds Pro are better than the AirPods because all of them are Hi-Fi certified, unlike any AirPods Pro.
Now that One UI 6.1.1 is out. Turn on UHQ and you will see that Airpods are toys compared to the Buds 3 Pro!!!
A transparency mod for that buds would look so cool
Custom clear case for buds 3 pro
I just got these today and I love them they sound great, and man you don’t realize how compact the parts need to be for both the case and earbud until its taken apart

It's not that they're repairable. It's that a company isn't going out of it's way to make repairability a living hell

transparent case is just like bikini with butt acnes out

Im liking and subscibing so your voice can be heard. Repairable and replacable parts are so important in saving the planet and labor hours
It's an interesting point about higher repairability possibly leading to less electronic waste.
This is not hard for you bcoz you are the professional guy with lots of experience ❤
So nice to see you come up in Algorithm.When skin clears try bandaid.Sensitive skin can be blessing and curse.Always Enjoy.💯✌️

Nice Job 👍
The fact that the buds fits perfectly in the vice, it shows Samesung just did a copy-pasta with the design
Honestly surprised, it sits just a bit below the fairphone buds. The only issue I have is the price and the fact that they have stems
Where do you buy replacement parts?
I love them they sound real great too. Got em for $108
Yo phonerepairguru why you wont try makin Transparen buds 3 pro case? it would be cool
For clarification, the IP57 water resistance is only for the buds themselves. Not the case.
Soundpeats air 5👍 bluetooth 5.4v, tripla magnet and many other things. performance is necessary for a nice run.
a transparent cover will make so much sense and beauty
do a clear mod for the galaxy buds
I hope there's a transparent case mod in the future.
Yeah credit that theyre easy to repair, but the issue i found was finding parts haha. They were usually heavily expensive!
If this easy to repair comparatively might want buy it in future once it price drop from current one
