Ask someone close to you which are the best wireless headphones. I'm convinced the answer will be AirPods Pro 2nd generation, and for good reason. Apple has done an exceptional job in a category they created in 2016. However, the new Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro (review), with its updated styling, improved sound and noise reduction, gives Apple's offering some stiff competition. Now that I've used both TWS for a week, in this Galaxy Buds 3 Pro vs AirPods Pro 2 comparison, I'll help you decide which of them are the best premium earbuds on the market.

Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and AirPods Pro 2nd gen will look quite similar at first glance. But look closely, and you'll see that while AirPods have a more ergonomic, rounder design for their buds and stem, Samsung took an edgier approach. The Buds 3 pro looks like something you'd get for free with a Tesla Cybertruck.

The angled triangular stem, the slate gray color and the Blade Lights at the stem. Compare that to Apple's minimal design language with all the curves in the right places. Not only do the AirPods look stylish in terms of design, but they also fit comfortably in my ears. They almost disappear when I put them on. Compared to the Samsung's uncomfortable fit that needs to be readjusted from time to time.

But that's probably just me. Maybe the Buds 3 Pro will fit more securely in your ears than mine. Samsung has also redesigned the case for its Buds, going for a more compact design with a transparent cover. This shows the buds and Blade Lights in all their glory. If you're wondering what the lights are for, they're low power level indicators.
