Available in Silver and White, the Galaxy Buds 3 series features a sleek design created for comfort. The Buds 3 offers an Open Type design suitable for various uses, while the Buds 3 Pro comes with a Canal Type design for immersive sound.
Both models sport a stylish blade design enhanced with Blade Lights, offering better touch controls for easy operation. They offer two purpose-built design options.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 comes with dimensions of 18.1 x 20.4 x 31.9 mm with 4.7g weight for the earbuds and 58.9 x 48.7 x 24.4 mm with 46.5g for the charging case.

The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro delivers premium audio quality with advanced 2-way speakers and a planar tweeter for precise high-range sound.

It features enhanced adaptive EQ and ANC technologies that dynamically adjust sound based on surroundings.
Moreover, the Galaxy Buds 3 series introduces innovative features like Interpreter mode, enabling real-time translations when connected to Galaxy Z Fold6 or Flip6 devices. The Voice commands feature allows hands-free control for music playback and calls.
Pre-orders for the Galaxy Buds 3 series start on July 10, with general availability beginning on July 24.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro launched with several new functions and impressive design. Some users have encountered a beeping issue while using the Galaxy Buds 3 series. However, Samsung is aware of this issue and explained the cause of it.
If you’re also experiencing an unexpected beeping or howling sound while using your Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 or Buds 3 Pro, it might be related to the earbuds’ advanced noise control features.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro have features like Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), Optimized Noise Control, and Ambient Sound. These functions use microphones on the outside of the earbuds to either block out noise, adjust to your environment, or let you hear outside sounds better.
The issue usually occurs if you accidentally cover or touch the sub-microphone, which is located on the outer part of the earbuds. When ANC, Optimized Noise Control, or Ambient Sound are turned on, these features pick up sounds from this microphone and play them back through the earbuds.
If you cover the microphone while handling the earbuds, it can cause a beeping or howling noise. To avoid this, make sure you don’t cover the area around the sub-microphone when you’re putting on, taking off, or adjusting the earbuds.
You can prevent the beeping sound and enjoy the benefits of your Galaxy Buds 3 or Buds 3 Pro without interruptions, just by properly placing it.

Google starts rolling out Cross-device services to Android devices. Samsung Galaxy phones would also receive a new Android Cross-device Call-casting feature. However, the Internet sharing function won’t arrive on Galaxy devices.
Following the I/O 2024, Google revealed the first set of Cross-device services. The company has now begun releasing Call casting and Instant hotspot to Android devices. The distribution is happening gradually, with the Beta channel getting it first.
You will be able to find it within Settings > Google > Devices and sharing > Cross-device services. Once received, you have to follow the setup process to establish your “device group” by enabling these preferences on your signed-in devices.
Call casting: “Move calls between this device and other nearby devices signed in to your Google Account. Call casting is only available for certain apps. Some data about your devices may be shared with those apps when you switch devices.”
“When turned on, your other devices can cast video calls to the device that you’re using.” Google Meet is currently supported for the casting feature. You can use the Cast icon to move a video call between your Android phone, tablet, or desktop browser.
Internet sharing allows you to permit your device to automatically share hotspot access with your own devices. It requires Bluetooth and device location to be turned on to share the internet across devices signed in with the same Google account.
Samsung Galaxy devices already have a similar feature called Auto hotspot. Hence, Android’s Internet sharing isn’t available on Samsung devices. A toggle allows you to turn on/off each feature, while Google will display your Device groups.
