First Galaxy Buds 3 Pro update brings improved stability

The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro have started receiving a software update in South Korea. It comes bearing firmware version R630XXU0AXG5 and has a download size of 7.69MB. According to the changelog, which is extremely short, the new update improves the stability of the audio on the wireless earbuds.

Samsung hasn't explained what that actually means. However, it might mean that the update is meant to make the audio performance of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro more consistent.

The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro have a dual-driver setup featuring dynamic drivers for low-end (bass) and mid-range (vocals) frequencies and planar tweeters for high-end frequencies (treble).

The earbuds have Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity with LE Audio (LC3 codec) and Auracast. The new wireless earbuds also support AAC and Samsung Scalable Codec Ultra High Quality (SSC UHQ) codecs.

Samsung's new wireless earbuds have stems, unlike all previous models in the lineup. Those stems help improve call quality and offer more reliable touch controls (via pinch gestures).

The earbuds are IP57-rated for dust and water resistance. The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro have Adaptive ANC, Adaptive EQ, and Ambient Sound.
