With a larger speaker[2], Buds3 FE deliver rich, powerful sound with deep bass and clear treble.[3] Enhanced ANC[4] reduces ambient noise, creating a more immersive listening experience. Crystal Clear Call technology uses an advanced pre-trained machine learning model to isolate your voice, ensuring conversations remain clear even in noisy environments.

The experience is fast, natural, and conversational, designed to feel more like talking to a friend than using a device. Users can also check their daily agenda or email without removing their phone from their pocket or bag. For translation[8], they can use Buds3 FE with the Galaxy AI Interpreter[9] app on their smartphone to listen to a lecture in a foreign language or have a conversation with someone in another language.
