Samsung's heavily leaked Galaxy Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro got their official launch. And they don't just look like Apple's AirPods. They're similarly priced, too.
Thanks to what were clearly very accurate leaks, we already knew that Samsung was planning to release a new generation of Galaxy Buds wireless earbuds with a strong resemblance to Apple’s iconic AirPods Gen 3 and AirPods Pro. What we didn’t know at the time was just how closely Samsung had stuck to Apple’s formula.
The biggest change to Samsung’s Galaxy Buds in their third generation is the shape, as they abandon the previous stemless design for one that hews closely to Apple’s AirPods. Samsung says new shape is the result of “a variety of collected statistical data.” Samsung’s controls will be instantly familiar to AirPods Pro users. Pinching gestures on the stems cover all of the major functions, while volume is controlled by a vertical swiping gesture.
It starts with water and dust resistance: With an IP57 rating that makes them effectively waterproof anddust proof, these new earbuds aren’t just an improvement over Apple , they’re an improvement over every previous model of Galaxy Buds. The Buds 3 Pro is further enhanced with active noise cancellation and transparency modes. The Buds 3 also get ANC — an unusual feature for semi-open earbuds — but they lack the transparency option. Presumably the semi-open shape lets in plenty of external sound when ANC is off.
The earbuds also get Bixby-powered hands-free voice commands — a series of two-word commands that can be used to control music playback. Both ANC and EQ functions are adaptive to your environment.
