Samsung said the Buds 3 FE deliver improved sound quality and upgraded ANC compared to the previous model. Crystal Clear Call technology uses machine learning to reduce background noise and isolate the speaker’s voice, while the redesigned stem optimises microphone placement for better capture.

 

The earbuds support pinch gestures for selections and swipe gestures for volume adjustment. Galaxy ecosystem features include Auto Switch, which shifts connections automatically between Galaxy devices. When paired with a compatible smartphone, the Buds 3 FE can act as a live translator using the Galaxy AI Interpreter.
