Just like Google makes Pixel Buds for Pixel users and Apple makes AirPods for iPhones, Samsung has the Galaxy Buds series for Galaxy phone users. It’s usually better to stay within your ecosystem since you’ll get a better user experience and value for your money, and the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are no exception. You can get them right now for $189.99 (originally $249.99), matching the lowest price it has hit on Amazon, according to price-tracking tools.

The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are Samsung’s flagship earbuds that came out earlier this summer. They offer noise-cancelling through their snug in-ear fit, not through an active noise-cancelling feature. One of their standout features is their nuanced sound quality with exceptional clarity for Galaxy phone users, thanks to their codec support. If you have a non-Samsung Android phone, it’ll still work, but you won’t get the exceptional audio quality Galaxy phones will get, according to PCMag’s “excellent” review.
Their IP57 rating means you don’t have to worry about dropping them in water or using them on dusty environments. You’ll also notice LED lights on the outside of the buds, which indicate the battery life (six hours per charge with ANC on and an extra 20 hours of battery life with the charging case).
In my opinion, the best features the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro offer are the same ones that make them unique—the AI features. You’ll get the usual Active Noise Cancellation, Adaptive, and Ambient Sound, but you’ll also get an “Interpreter” mode, which translates languages in real time, and “Listening” mode, which translates videos or lectures you listen to on your phone. The app also gets you an adjustable EQ, and an Adaptive Equalizer that adjusts audio based on how the earbuds fit in your ears.
