Galaxy buds 3 pro light strips showing different brightness

[Rathlos2000]

Had just gotten my new buds and usually like to watch review and guides on anything I buy. 

But came across a reviewer saying some people noticed the light stripes on the buds have different brightness from eachother.

Looked at mines and bummer, not sure if it's a defect or an issue that can be fixed in a future update. Can also be affecting early batches, I already had to wait a month before receiving mines due to a recall.

Really hard to show in picture but the left bud is more brighter compared to the right. The left earbud has more of a glare from the light.

I heard people saying they turned the lights off cuz it drains battery. Mine is supposed to come tomorrow, so I hope i don't get any issues

Ya I mean it sounds great, just a aesthetic issue hopefully can be resolved with an update

If you can i suggest returning and get a replacement just to be on the safe side
