Hey all, looking to get some buds that are better for phone calls so if someone has a set of these that they got bundled with a phone that they want to pass on please let me know.

On a related note I have just purchased a Galaxy S25 and that comes with Galaxy Buds 3 so if anyone is looking for a set of those please let me know. They are new in the box, unopened.

Slightly off topic, but if you plan to use these biking (or anything where you need movement wind noise reduction) or weed whacking, don't get them.

There is almost no wind noise cancellation. Weed whacking making makes a huge crack-snap noise, amplified at max volume. It's pretty terrible.

Sitting still, they are great.

I have a pair that can go. I have an excess of Buds. My wife thinks I have a buds problem! I'll PM you later.

My views (except when I am looking out their windows) are not those of my employer.

Also, the first update after they were released made a huge difference to the wind noise and weed whacker noise artifacts. Have you tried them since that update @psilan?

Thanks. I've tried. Reddit threads show the issue persists.I don't weed whack often.

Wind NC was my primary issue though. I think the airpod pros they replaced were just amazing at biking wind noise.

Thanks for the warning, I only plan to use them for calls in the house so should be good.

Highly recommended az100 if you are after call mic quality, nothing comes close with its sound stage as well.
