Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 – True Wireless Earbuds

With ANC On:
- Earbuds: 5 hours playtime
- With charging case: Total up to 24 hours
With ANC Off:
- Earbuds: 6 hours playtime
- With charging case: Total up to 30 hours
Detailed Specs:
- Earbud battery: 48 mAh
- Case battery: 515 mAh

These numbers are consistent with official Samsung support stating up to 24 hours (ANC on) and up to 30 hours (ANC off) total playtime.

Reddit users share mixed experiences, noting differences in battery life depending on settings:

“I would say they should last 6.5 hours at 50% volume. 3.25 at 100% and 4.9 at 75%.”

Blade lights, UHQ audio, ANC, and voice commands can significantly reduce battery life. One user found:

“The actual battery life is 7 hours, but if you turn on ANC… … with the blade lights on, 4 hours.”

These real-world insights suggest that while official ratings are a good guideline, features and usage habits can impact actual battery performance.

Enabling ANC, Blade Lights, UHQ codec, Voice Commands, etc., can significantly reduce usage time.
