Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 3 are down to $79.99 (from $119.99) on Woot for the next five days or until they sell out. If you’re a Prime member, you also get free shipping; otherwise, it’ll cost you an extra $6 (just a heads-up, though: These won’t ship to Alaska, Hawaii, or any P.O. Bboxes).
These AirPod-like earbuds have triangular stems, which reportedly help with fit and touch controls. You can pinch the front of the stem to control playback and ANC, and swiping on the back changes the volume. The controls are mirrored on both sides, though customization is limited—you can set the pinch-and-hold gesture to either toggle ANC, activate Samsung’s Bixby voice assistant, or enable the AI-based Interpreter feature through the Samsung Wear app, but that’s about it.
Each earbud has a single 11mm dynamic driver, so sound quality should be fine for casual listening, but if you’re after audiophile-level quality, you might find the Galaxy Buds 3 lacking, notes this PCMag review. They support Bluetooth 5.3 and the AAC, SBC, and Samsung Scalable (SSC) codecs, but that last one only works on Samsung phones. If you have an iPhone or another (non-Samsung) Android device, you’re stuck with only AAC or SBC codecs and you’ll miss out on some AI features like live translation in Conversation Mode. You can still connect them via Bluetooth, but the Samsung Wear app won’t give you full functionality (like tweaking EQ settings, toggling ANC, and more). If LDAC support for higher-quality streaming is a must-have for you, you might want to check out the Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 NC ($99.99) instead.
The Buds 3 come with a 90-day Woot limited warranty and have an IP57 rating, meaning they can handle sweat and rain, making them a decent option for workouts. They also support Google Fast Pair and automatic switching between Samsung devices (though multipoint connectivity isn’t included). That said, their battery life isn’t great—five hours per charge with ANC on (or six without), plus 19 extra hours from the case. You can charge them via USB-C or wirelessly.
