Ngày phát hành Galaxy Buds 3 Pro hoãn lại do vấn đề chất lượng

Ngày hôm nay, Samsung đã chính thức ra mắt nhiều thiết bị đeo trên sự kiện Unpacked tại Paris cách đây hơn một tuần, bao gồm cả dòng tai nghe không dây mới Galaxy Buds 3 Pro và Galaxy Buds 3. Điều này đã tạo nên một số thay đổi lớn về thiết kế và tính năng mới khiến nhiều người cho rằng Samsung đang sao chép Apple một lần nữa.

Tuy nhiên, quyết định của Samsung khi thêm một bộ phận đứng cho Galaxy Buds 3 khiến chúng trở nên giống với AirPods Pro và các đối thủ của AirPods khác. Tuy nhiên, tôi cho rằng đó là một ý tưởng đúng đắn, bỏ qua các so sánh với AirPods. Tôi thường thích tai nghe không dây có bộ phận đứng vì chúng ngồi chặt hơn trong tai tôi và bộ phận đứng có thể mang lại cho bạn thêm các điều khiển phụ.

Sau hơn một tuần sử dụng Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, tôi muốn nói rằng có nhiều điều tôi thích và một số điều tôi không. Một bài đánh giá sẽ được viết sớm, nhưng dường như tôi là một trong số ít người may mắn có cơ hội trải nghiệm Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, ít nhất là trong thời gian tới.

Dường như vấn đề về chất lượng với các đầu đinh thay thế đã khiến Samsung lặng lẽ trì hoãn ngày phát hành của chúng. Bạn sẽ phải đợi đến ngày 28 tháng 8 để đặt hàng trước của mình.

Samsung unveiled several wearables at its Unpacked event in Paris over a week ago, including the new Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and Galaxy Buds 3. The wireless earphones got a major redesign and new features that prompted many to say that Samsung is copying Apple again.

That’s because Samsung’s decision to add a stem to the Galaxy Buds 3 makes them look like AirPods Pro and AirPods rivals. However, I think that’s the right idea here, AirPods comparisons aside. I tend to prefer wireless earbuds with stems. They sit better in my ear, and the stem can give you access to extra controls.

I’ve been using the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro for over a week now. I’ll say there are many things about them that I like and a few that I don’t. A review is incoming, this isn’t it. But it sure looks like I’m one of the few people who will have access to the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, at least for a while.

It appears that quality issues with the removable tips made Samsung quietly delay their release date. You’ll have to wait until August 28th to get your preorder in.

The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro should have shipped to buyers next week, on July 24th. That’s the same release date all the products unveiled at Unpacked got.

However, a few days before the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro should have hit stores, people started complaining that the removable ear tips are fragile. The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro comes with three ear tip sizes, so you can select the ones that fit your ear canals better. It’s what we’ve come to expect from wireless earphones with Pro in the name.

It appears that the ear tips can break while you’re replacing them. I haven’t experienced the issue (yet), but some people have. Samsung has a support page at this link on replacing the Galaxy Buds correctly. But it seems that even if you respect the procedure, the silicon might break.

After these quality concerns came to light, Samsung seems to have stopped preorders in its home market. Phandroid found a post on a support forum on Samsung’s Korean website, where a notice from the company seemingly acknowledges quality issues with the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. The notice advises buyers to visit local stores if they’ve encountered any problems with their units.

A Reddit post indicates that Samsung has stopped sales of both Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and Galaxy Buds in Korea. A popular Korean YouTuber bought multiple Buds 3 Pros from local vendors, pointing out several quality issues beyond the ear tips’ fragility. Here are a few of them, as translated by a Redditor:

Blemishes of blue dye on the earbud surface

Surfaces of the earbuds not flush across contours

Earbuds not evenly seating into the case

One side of the earbud’s LED looks cut off at the end rather than neatly finishing (sorry for poor wording, just watch the video for when the reviewer points at the LED strips)

Case hinge had a portion of tape/finish peeling off out of the box

Eartips being notorious for breaking when trying to remove, despite following instructions given by Samsung

Eartips had bits of dust present before pulling out of the case

Of all these issues, I’ve noticed that the earbud surface is not flush across the contours on my Galaxy Buds 3 Pro pair.

Following these complaints, Samsung appears to have also delayed the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro release date in the US. You get an August 28th ship date for preorders, more than a month later than expected. The regular $179.99 Galaxy Buds 3 will still ship next week.

Furthermore, Phone Arena notes that Amazon has pulled the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro page, while Best Buy has them as coming soon.

I looked at Samsung’s store in France, where the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro is available for preorder. However, shipping has been delayed to August 16th.

It’s not exactly a product recall. But it doesn’t look good for Samsung, considering the existing AirPods Pro copycat controversy. There’s nothing wrong with making AirPods Pro equivalents that cost just as much ($249.99). But the quality of the product should be top-notch no matter where the design inspiration came from.
