🎵🎤 Oh no! The mighty vinyl, once the king of crisp sound, has finally cracked under the pressure of the Loudness War. RIP to those who thought analog was immune to digital sins 😂📀. Next up: wax cylinders making a comeback with 7.1 surround sound. 🎧🕯️

🎶🥳 Congrats to Teenage Engineering for inventing a machine that lets hipsters create vinyl records with "superior sound quality"—because streaming isn't retro enough! 🤯🎉 Exclusive access is the name of the game, because who wouldn't want to spend a fortune on a device that makes music even fewer people will listen to? 📀🙄

Ah, the riveting saga of #mildew vs. analog tapes—truly a battle for the ages 🎻. Who knew mold was such a connoisseur of sound quality? 📼 Maybe next time they can research how dust affects vinyl, because clearly, that’s what the world is waiting for with bated breath. 🙄

Dear Microsoft. What is the right procedure to have Teams open at the same time as I'm playing music on my Bluetooth earbuds without experiencing significantly degraded sound quality? Since the last Teams upgrade, this seems to be completely random.

HomePods are great, but for mostly stationary devices marketed for their exceptional sound quality, they should have included the option to wire them together when used in pairs and also provided an Ethernet port. This would have solved the current synchronization issues and ensured a more reliable and stable connection, free from interference with other wireless devices.

I can #telephone in the car fine but on #bike I have to abort most calls. Is there a trick I can use to have decent sound without wind and clothes rubbing mic, background noise, etc?

Do I have to wear a #motorcycle #helmet for the #soundquality?

Thanks for any tips!

Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 and 3 Pro: Smart, But Not Outstanding

Samsung has been striving to match the success of Apple, Bose, and Sony in the world of true wireless earbuds. While their Galaxy Buds lineup has received praise, it hasn’t reached the iconic status of Samsung’s Galaxy smartphones. With the release of the Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, Samsung aims to change that, introducing AI-driven features and a familiar design reminiscent of Apple’s AirPods.

What We Loved

Impressive Sound Quality

Sound quality has always been a strength of the Galaxy Buds series, and the new models don’t disappoint. Samsung’s adaptive EQ enhances sound in real-time, creating a rich audio experience, especially when paired with a Galaxy smartphone. Whether listening to classic rock or modern hip-hop, these earbuds deliver clear, vibrant sound. The Galaxy Buds 3’s open-ear design may cause some sound leakage, but the audio remains superior to the AirPods 2. The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, with their in-ear design, offer a more immersive experience.

Effective Noise Cancellation

The Galaxy Buds 3 and 3 Pro feature three noise-canceling modes: Ambient Sound, Adaptive, and Active Noise Canceling (ANC). ANC performs well, reducing low- and mid-frequency noises effectively. Although high-pitched sounds are still audible, they aren’t overly distracting. The open-ear design of the Galaxy Buds 3 supports ANC, which reduces background noise by about 20%.

Comfort and Durability

Both models are comfortable to wear and are built to withstand everyday use with a solid IP57 rating for dust and water resistance. Samsung’s Find feature makes it easy to locate your earbuds if misplaced.

Where They Fall Short

Too Similar to Apple’s Design

Samsung’s choice to mimic Apple’s long-stem design feels uninspired. While the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro feature multifunctional force sensors, they’re not as user-friendly as those found on Apple’s AirPods Pro 2. The slim design makes it difficult to find and use these controls effectively.

Unimpressive AI Features

Samsung touted AI as a game-changer for these earbuds, but the execution falls flat. Adaptive ANC and other AI-driven features, like Smart Voice Capture and Siren Detect, don’t perform as promised. In some cases, these features barely function or require specific software updates that not all devices support.

Disappointing Battery Life

The Galaxy Buds 3 and 3 Pro offer up to 6 and 7 hours of playtime, respectively. With ANC and spatial audio activated, battery life takes a significant hit. These figures lag behind competitors, making battery life a potential deal-breaker.

Final Thoughts

Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 3 and 3 Pro bring solid sound quality and noise cancellation to the table, particularly for Galaxy smartphone users. However, the borrowed design, inconsistent AI features, and subpar battery life make it hard to recommend them over other options. While they are a decent choice for Galaxy users, those seeking top-tier wireless earbuds may want to explore alternatives.
