Samsung's underrated Galaxy Buds 3 break into the spotlight with huge 47 percent discount
While bargain-hunting Samsung fans who've been in the market for a new pair of wireless earbuds these last few months may have reached the conclusion that they need to choose between the super-premium Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and entry-level Galaxy Buds FE, there's at least another product to consider. The non-Pro Galaxy Buds 3 are obviously slightly humbler compared to their "sister" model in terms of both active noise cancellation and overall audio performance. But that's why they're also significantly cheaper, normally costing $179.99 instead of $249.99. And now they're even more affordable, at $94.99. $85 off (47%) True Wireless Earbuds with Active Noise Cancellation, Sound Optimization, Real-Time Interpreter, Adaptive Equalizer, Galaxy AI, Touch Control, Bluetooth 5.4, IP57 Water and Dust Resistance, Up to 5 Hours of Uninterrupted Listening Time, 24 Hours of Battery Life with Case, Silver Color, Brand-New Condition, Two-Year Manufacturer Warranty Included Buy at Woot True Wireless Earbuds with Active Noise Cancellation, Sound Optimization, Real-Time Interpreter, Adaptive Equalizer, Galaxy AI, Touch Control, Bluetooth 5.4, IP57 Water and Dust Resistance, Up to 5 Hours of Uninterrupted Listening Time, 24 Hours of Battery Life with Case, White Color, US Version, Two-Year Warranty Included Buy at Amazon That's almost half of the list price knocked down with no special requirements or notable compromises, mind you, as the cheaper-than-ever Galaxy Buds 3 units available at Woot for a limited time in a single silver colorway are not only brand-new, unused, unopened, and undamaged, but also covered by a two-year manufacturer warranty. Although the Amazon-owned e-tailer doesn't spell that out for us, the extended warranty strongly suggests that we're looking at an official US version of the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3, which makes this a more appealing offer than a Galaxy Buds 3 Pro Woot deal we recently told you about. That one incredibly brought Samsung's best buds from $249.99 all the way down to $109.99... in an "international" version with a modest 90-day warranty included. Amazon, in case you're wondering, can only slash up to 40 bucks off the aforementioned $179.99 list price of the "regular" Galaxy Buds 3, which further highlights the exceptional opportunity to save no less than $85 at Woot for the next five days (or while supplies last). Designed to look a bit too similar to Apple's AirPods 4 for my taste, the non-Pro Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 do shine with proprietary features and capabilities like Live Translate and Galaxy AI-powered Adaptive Equalizer while certainly not disappointing in the sound, battery life, or water resistance departments. Are these the absolute best wireless earbuds money can buy in 2025? Definitely not. Are they good enough for 95 bucks? Definitely yes. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

Samsung confirms Galaxy Buds Core launching soon in India, possibly before Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7
Samsung has all but confirmed the impending launch of its new wireless earphones, the Galaxy Buds Core, in India. The South Korean tech giant's social media teasers, featuring the tagline 'let the music move you to the core,' cleverly hint at the name, which has been circulating in rumours for some time. This once again proves how hard it is to maintain product secrecy in the current era. Support pages for the Galaxy Buds Core recently went live in various markets, including India. The earphones have also been spotted on the Bureau of India Standards (BIS) website, a crucial certification for electronics launched in the country. Samsung has now teased the release on X (formerly Twitter) with a post stating, "Brace yourself! The music is about to hit harder. Feel every note, every drop, every beat – louder, clearer, deeper. Dropping soon!" advertisementThe accompanying product silhouette in the teaser offers a clear look at the Galaxy Buds Core's design. The charging case appears strikingly similar to the existing Galaxy Buds 3, while the earbuds themselves seem to adopt a styling akin to the Galaxy Buds FE, suggesting a stem-less design. This would be a return to Samsung's more compact, utilitarian aesthetic seen in most of its earphones before the recent Galaxy Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro, which introduced a stem layout. However, earlier rumours had suggested a stem design for the Buds Core, so we'll have to wait and watch on the final form factor. The Galaxy Buds Core are widely expected to succeed the 2023 Galaxy Buds FE, positioning them as a more affordable alternative to the Galaxy Buds 3. It's currently unclear if a separate Galaxy Buds FE 2 will also be released. Speculation suggests the Core earphones will feature a larger battery for improved longevity, along with enhancements in audio quality and active noise cancellation (ANC) capabilities. With Samsung's official announcement, more details, including the exact launch timeline, are expected anytime now. Considering the "FE" history, the launch of the long-rumored Galaxy S25 FE might also be on the horizon. This new announcement also confirms a busy summer for Samsung, with the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event, rumored for July 9, set to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Flip 7, and potentially an even more affordable Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. Stay tuned for further updates.
