This is the second Galaxy Buds 3 I’ve received with the exact same problem, all within 7 days. On Wednesday, August 19th, I received the first one, identified the issue, and quickly returned it.
On Saturday, August 23rd, I received a replacement.
After a workout session, my earbuds simply won’t charge inside the case, even though the case itself is at 100% battery. The case keeps blinking red and, according to the manual, that indicates a problem. And it really is one: my earbuds won’t charge.
As usual, after training, I removed the earbuds from my ears and carefully dried them with a soft, completely dry cloth. I even removed the ear tips to dry that area as well, and I left the earbuds outside the case for a while.
I realized this is actually an extremely common issue with the Galaxy Buds 3 (pro and non-pro). Samsung is aware of it and apparently doesn’t care to fix it once and for all. There are threads from months ago, all around the world, reporting the same issue — and to this day Samsung hasn’t reviewed the product’s engineering to solve it. The product is IP57 certified, and yet I can’t sweat while wearing them without them refusing to charge afterward? It’s unbelievable that a multimillion-dollar company can’t fix such a simple engineering flaw in a product that costs between $150 and $200.
I’ve had several earbuds from other brands, and none of them ever had this kind of problem.
In short, Samsung should be ashamed of selling a product like this.
You right I have the same issue So I sent them to repair and never got them back the buds got lost and Samsung telling me to wait maybe they will pop up sometime Get the sony one they're way better
