Samsung Galaxy Buds 3, Galaxy Buds 3 Pro specifications
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 series comes with a new design with blade lights. This new design lets users control the device by pinching on the blade or swiping up or down. The Galaxy Buds 3 has a one-way 11 mm dynamic driver, while the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro has a two-way 10.5 mm dynamic speaker with a 6.1 mm planar. Both models are equipped with three microphones and voice pickup units and offer ANC feature to identify surrounding sounds and choose the best level of noise and sound without manual adjustment.
The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro model is equipped with Ambient Sound Mode and Voice Detect feature. It is claimed that these are able to distinguish between noise and human voice. When the wearer speaks, the earbuds switch to Ambient Mode, which reduces the media volume, making it easier to hear the conversation without taking the earbud out.
