Gonna be a sick day when people make a transparency mod for the buds 3 pro case.
YESSSSS
I know that's what PRG is doing rn lmao
@@Legofan2676 yes
This needs to be a thing
Please someone comment when they make a clear case!!!!
3:01 actually....the Buds themselves are IP57, the charging case is only IPX2 from what I know
That's correct
freaking W samsung on repairability
Just wait until you hear about all of their garbage terms…
@@ThatIceChampioncould you elaborate please?
@@ThatIceChampion elaborate here. Don't just speak nonsense without making it make sense.
@@tarandeepsidhu6812If you send a device to be repaired by Samsung and you’re caught they may pull an Asus (send it back in pieces).
@@spiritedsoul777 1: Samsung forces any 3rd party repair people to give all their customer’s information to them.
2: if a repair shop finds a non Samsung part in the device, the part will be taken out and will NOT be replaced.
3: Samsung Support also takes ass long to deal with. I speak from experience.
4: their repairs cost a lot since they sell parts bundled
It isn’t nonsense, its just as bad if not worse as Apple’s.
I can see clear case mods happening xD
Dbrand is definitely gonna make a transparent look sticker/wrap or transparent case for this bad boy 100%
dbrand presumably stopped making AirPods case skins due to the difficulty of just applying them so I doubt it
+ there's no real point of making a skin when changing the case is so easy, you don't even have to unscrew anything or remove any adhesive.
@@brandon_nopea case would be nice then
3:47 although yes you do have to solder it you could probably just buy a replacement board and if Samsung really wants to go 1 step further in repairability they could sell it themselves
If the EU laws pass they will have to
That board probably has all the info about the buds including serial numbers. I think replacing it would disconnect you from your buds so youll have to reconnect
Edit: newest buds can track location and are account tied like apple products
Let’s all pray for PRG that he survives his Apple Watch disease😭😭🙏🙏
Ok
On the OG Buds and Buds+ Samsung told the battery manufacturer to stop selling the battery (manufacturer sold it before) 😢
That's really uncool of samsung.
Is not the true … the battery are the same of the Sony XM3 and they are standard. In my sony I have change and upgrade the battery with Varta CP1254 A4 (they’re not cheap but they’re better than the original ones)
@@f4lco021was curious about the price, found them for 12€ per battery.
Not cheap, but, considering it goes in your ears, that's not extremely expensive.
The buds+ used a standard button cell battery in the buds lol
The buds+ use a EVE icr1454s not the varta cell like the OG buds. That one is not that readily available, but ifixit us seems to stock them now.
There are posts of a few people that had issues sourcing them from elsewhere :)
I’m giving these Buds3 Pro a try because my last two AirPods Pro developed crackling sounds when transparency or anc are engaged.
ME TOO!!! Its super annoying and only really happens when they move around in my ear with that on
Well they don't work well when using a non samsung phone and the codec is restricted to the s23 to s24 series
I had that with Buds 2 from Samsung, make sure the microphone on the airpod is not dirty.
@ricky1000 the codec is on every samsung phone but the UHQ capability requires a flagship phone with Bluetooth 5.3 which is S23 and later
I have them they’re not bad with my iPhone
Great to see that jerryrig and you uploaded at the same day
A transparency mod for that buds would look so cool
I got mine delivered way earlier on pre-order, and I am taken aback by this pair of buds.
Sure, they copied Apple, so what? The consumer is winning in the end! The repairable design would make batteries be replaced so much easier!
The sound is just on par, or maybe sometimes even better than the AirPods Pro that I have, and they work so seamlessly on my Samsung phone, the AI features, and the blade lights are so much cool! I lost them in the dark, and the blade lights helped me locate them. Since these were delivered, I have not using my AirPods Pro at all!
Samsung really outdid themselves!
All of Samsung's Buds Pro are better than the AirPods because all of them are Hi-Fi certified, unlike any AirPods Pro.
2:55 The IP57 resistance is only for the buds itself not the case
The inside of that case looks so cool, you should make it transparent!
Time for seeing it in transperent casing 👀
transparent case is just like bikini with butt acnes out
Transparent case mod maybe, love to see it ❤🤩
Apple should take some notes.
Samsung copied apple bruh
Design wise, yes, repairability, no@@ZetronYT
@@ZetronYT in a better way
@@ZetronYT Samsung owns JBL, they had this design for decades. Just cause you have only seen airpods. Doesn't mean its the first of their kind
@@goatededitzz77 Apple keeping everyone in their garden
Hope that these types of devices get more repairable over time.
I hate how my buds 2 pro became paper weights that samsung themselves won't bother to fix
Nice video love ur work ❤
Do a video swapping galaxy buds pro 3 parts
Won't matter, they cannot bind speakers usb ports or raw battery cells by serial number. And noone is gonna swap parts soldered to the logic board, that's not worth it financially.
@@khamigen awwww
@@Bankroll1223 no, no, that's a good thing. They can't forbid battery replacements this way. Seriously considering these after my airpods die for sure ✌️
@khamigen ooh well what do i know in just a measly tech enthusiasts
It’s a good day when PRG uploads.
Make the case transparent
2:44 It's not small, it's average.
You are the only one who could change my mind on these new buds. Now I wanna get one. 😊
I’m pretty sure, according to my little bit of research, the Galaxy buds 3 and buds 3 pro are actually somehow compatible with iPhones, however you do lose out of some features. But with how cool the buds 3 look, I’d literally be willing to replace my first gen AirPods Pro with galaxy buds 3/3 pro.
you can use it with iphone, just like airpods can be used with android. you do lose some features not using galaxy buds on samsung phones, but nothing too big
You can set up the buds3 on a Samsung device or PC and then connect to the Iphone. You will keep the main functions.
I think this applies to any Bluetooth earbuds. I was using 1st gen air pods on my samsung years ago. Dont think companies cab make Bluetooth exclusive besides certain functions
It's an interesting point about higher repairability possibly leading to less electronic waste.
I am impressed by the complex technology involved in this equipment.
2:50 Its only the buds that are IP57 water resistant, not the case
Bro try to make it transparent
Hey PRG I also have a mark of my Apple Watch in my wrist though that one’s from a school field trip in a really sunny day, anyway just know that it disappears with time.
I wish we could like a video more than once. Every minute I scroll down to like the video and I see that I like the video. :)
2:55 the product page says the case isn't waterproof, only the earbuds.
Damn, this video just convinced me to get them and s24. I was thinking of trying iPhone 15 and AirPods Pro for a couple years just for a change but that ship has sailed
So when trying to change different size ear tips, the end broke and I can't swap it out nor can use my right bud. The quality control issue is no joke. Samsung support had been horrible still no resolution
imagine clear housing for that ❤
3:27 stop the cap 🧢 😂😂😂
So nice to see you come up in Algorithm.When skin clears try bandaid.Sensitive skin can be blessing and curse.Always Enjoy.💯✌️
Transparent mod??
do a clear mod for the galaxy buds
Any specific dates for when you will make a video for the Z Flip/Z Fold 6
Where do you buy replacement parts?
iFixit
call bro jerry for this one
Could you imagine how amazing it would be if the next gen Galaxy Buds would be released in 2 versions. One normal version with the case and one without the case. Only the ear buds would be sold, so you can keep your old casing and if need be you can upgrade to a newer casing at any time.
LOVE YOU VIDEOS MAN ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Soundpeats air 5👍 bluetooth 5.4v, tripla magnet and many other things. performance is necessary for a nice run.
Nice Job 👍
A real test to do would be to test if it is possible to replace the board assuming the board comes with the usb-c port on it and still have full functionality
Imagine how sick it would look with a clear case❤️🔥
Just got mine today.I'm not a fan of any Airpods, they do not sit in my ear well and if I move my jaw and open my mouth up-and-down, they fall out just like almost every other earbud, other than Bose, but after I switched mine to the smaller tips, they stayed in my ear with my mouth moving up-and-down. Around as well, I was shaking my head.
I would love to see someone make transparent base cases for these so that you could say slide them out and put them in transfer cases. So you can see the insides kind of like what we did back in the early two thousands, with next telephones, we took out all the insides, moved them to a clear case
3:35 giggles 😂😂😂
One time, I tried to repair an iPhone. It was just a nightmare. Putting the battery and the short cord back in its place, as if it was one of those things that if you opened it, everything would not go back to how it was.
Are you gonna do a transparent mod for the Galaxy Buds3 Pro like what you did for the S23 Ultra? Or maybe give them a frosted look like the Beats Studio Buds+?
Definitely buying these.
FINALLY EARLY! get the white so you get the Samsung compatible AirPods(TM)
I love your videos, bro. My friend and I watch you every chance we get. I'm a Samsung fanboy; he's Apple.😊
Shell swaps for the buds 3 pro r gonna be lit
Ngl I prefer the form factor of the buds 2 over this air pod like design sad to see Samsung change it
Exceptional! Thanks!
Honestly surprised, it sits just a bit below the fairphone buds. The only issue I have is the price and the fact that they have stems
You should put lanyard holes on that airpod, I mean Galaxy buds pro case
Do the earbuds themselves have a moisture indicator inside of them to show that they have been submerged in water?
Thank you master
If this easy to repair comparatively might want buy it in future once it price drop from current one
Try swapping the earbud tips between the airpods and galaxy buds
do the wires to the inductive coils look like they'll wear out or snap after a few bends? I worry about just sitting them akimbo like that while working on it.
I love them they sound real great too. Got em for $108
Please do a clean case for the galaxy buds
Please 😢
a transparent cover will make so much sense and beauty
Nice vid love it
Yo phonerepairguru why you wont try makin Transparen buds 3 pro case? it would be cool
iFixIt mentioned you and this video, bro!!!
Which one do you perfer? I think we a need head to head test
Also please tear down the new Galaxy fold and flip 🙏
Can you put the Samsung bud to the airpod
Nothing + Apple = Galaxy buds 3 pro 😂😂
Tf no its not
As someone who has repaired laptops for over 20 years repairability is a massive thing. When a customer brings in a laptop that's uneconomical to repair I offer them a price for it and then repair it so some kid (or adult) can use it for school or home, not all parents can afford a laptop and if you have 3 or 4 kids it can get expensive. The cost of repair is sometimes very minimal but my time isn't cheap, a part costing maybe £10 can take 2-3 hours to fault find and replace and nobody wants to spend £200ish to fix a 10 year old laptop worth £50. Conversely a part costing £300 can be fixed in an hour, it's fault finding that takes the time and then there's often a wait for spare parts because firms like Apple/Samsung lock down the supply chain so I have to find second hand parts. I have a lot of spares but I can't keep a broken laptop from every brand or I wouldn't be able to move for broken laptops.
Can you hit the shell of the case with some clear spray paint?
Can you modify it into a transparent charging case aside from the upper cover
Love ur videos
Wow 😳 absolutely amazing 🤩
For clarification, the IP57 water resistance is only for the buds themselves. Not the case.
I suppose that ones of the few benefits to a cheaper feeling case. Apple air pods might have a premium feel but being hard to repair is it's biggest flaw as a result. awesome video.
How W for Samsung’s repairability
What a win for repairability.
Could you tell me the model number of the screwdriver you’re using?
I hope there's a transparent case mod in the future.
make a long video on Nothing (R) Ear-a please
You can 3D print a transparent case for it like the lid and it would look SICKKKKKK!!!
i have been reluctant to buy tws due to repairability hope this wont be any issue
Still got the buds plus 5 years movin strong 💀🙏
next short should be swapping the housings of two different colors of the buds
Hey do you think you can get the razer Kishi v1 working on the iPhone 15 thanks
The fact that the buds fits perfectly in the vice, it shows Samesung just did a copy-pasta with the design
I'm kinda hoping to see a samsung buds 2 pro break down to try and fix it as easy like this 😅
RPG you should look at the new Fairbuds! If you can at least..
I feel like I'm one of the few who doesn't like the stem design. It just doesn't feel right. Plus, I much prefer the touch controls of the Buds2. More convenient in my opinion
Transparent bottom case mod?
Yeah credit that theyre easy to repair, but the issue i found was finding parts haha. They were usually heavily expensive!
Hi I’m in Puerto Rico where can I get the screw box?
2:59 there are entire engines that are both easy to disassemble and watertight, these traits are not mutually exclusive.
Also if you want something to be fixable in the long run you dont use Philips screws, you use hex, torx or Robertson, you also dont use adhesive instead of a propper gasket or o ring.
This entire product could be held together with bolts, heck the stems could easily unscrew to expose the battery and the end of the bud can also be made to unscrew to get access to the rest.
