• The Galaxy Buds 3 Pros ANC is worse than its predecessor.
• Samsungs latest earbuds only block out about 76% of outside noise.
• The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are able to block out about 84% of external sound.

Samsungs recently launched Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are a drastic departure from the previous generation. The premium wireless earbuds feature a number of improvements ranging from the design down to some new capabilities. However, it seems the firm took a major step backward when it came to one of its most important functions — active noise cancelation (ANC).

In case you werent aware, the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro offers a new AI-powered feature called Siren Detect. This feature is designed to allow sirens and alarms to pass through the ANC for safety purposes. After putting the Buds 3 Pro through their paces, our sister site, SoundGuys, found the feature to be largely redundant due to poor ANC.
