Samsung already offers "FE", which stands for "Fan Edition", variants of its bestselling models, including its Galaxy S smartphone lineup and tablets. These revisions are designed to offer premium technology at a lower price point, bringing the latest features to the widest possible audience.
Galaxy Buds3 FE arrive with some straightforward gestures — saving you the hassle of having to your smartphone out of your pocket to adjust volume.
Simply pinch the Blade-like stem to make a selection or swipe for volume adjustments.
If you remember to pop the 'buds back in the charging case, Galaxy Buds3 FE are capable of lasting over 24-hours between charges

With a larger speaker compared to the earlier Galaxy Buds FE, these new 'buds should deliver rich, powerful sound with deep bass and clear treble. Samsung has equipped its Bluetooth earbuds with bolstered Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to quash distracting background noises for a more immersive listening experience.
It also means you'll be able to hear your favourite podcasts, playlists, or audiobooks in a noisy environment, like a train carriage or plane seat.
This is powered by a three-microphone array. The same hardware also enables you to make calls in busy environments via the new Crystal Clear Call feature. This uses machine learning algorithms to separate your voice from surrounding noise, whilst the repositioned microphones face towards your mouth for optimal voice capture.
Your new Galaxy Buds3 FE 'buds are designed to last six hours on a single charge when using ANC, or 8.5 hours with this feature switched off. If you keep returning the earbuds back in the bundled case, which has its own battery to top up the 'buds, you'll be able to go 24-hours with ANC activated, or 30 hours without it, before you'll need to find a charger.
The Galaxy Buds3 FE are rated IP54, which means they're able to withstand submersion in up to 1.5 metres of freshwater for around 30 minutes without any issue. That means you'll be able to wear these Bluetooth buds in a downpour or working up a sweat in the gym without any issue.
However, Samsung doesn't advise you to take the Galaxy Buds3 FE with you to the beach or pool.
The earbuds support Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity with Auto Switch functionality, so the Galaxy Buds3 FE will be seamlessly switched between your Galaxy devices — automatically moving to a tablet if you start watching something, then switching back to your Galaxy smartphone if you receive an incoming call.

Like other recent additions to the Samsung lineup, there are no shortage of Artificial Intelligence (AI) features baked into the Galaxy Buds3 FE.
These lightweight 'buds support hands-free commands like “Hey Google”, prompting the Galaxy Buds3 FE to listen, understand, and respond without a screen or hands – just the user’s voice.
Samsung claims the experience is "fast, natural, and conversational, designed to feel more like talking to a friend than using a device". You'll be able to check your agenda for the day or email without removing the phone from your pocket or bag. For translation, Galaxy Buds3 FE supports the Galaxy AI Interpreter app available on Android phones to listen to a lecture in a foreign language or have a conversation with someone in another language.
will launch next month and and in the lineup of Bluetooth 'buds available from the South Korean firm.
