Samsung's new One UI 7.0 update nows to transform the user experience for Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro users. The update brings a new set of controls and features aimed to offer seamless connectivity, customized audio settings, and premium features straight from your paired Galaxy devices.

Improved Quick Panel Integration

One of the more notable new aspects of One UI 7.0 is the more extensive integration of Galaxy Buds controls within the device Quick Panel. Instead of needing to dig through menus to access important earbud configurations, users have direct access through long-pressing the volume slider in the Quick Panel. A drop-down pop-up menu is presented that gives direct access to:

  • Volume Adjustment: Regulate audio output to your desire.
  • Noise Control Modes: Quickly toggle Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), Ambient Sound, or disable noise controls.
  • Audio Equalizer: Choose from numerous presets to suit your listening preference.
  • Boost Dialogue and Volume Normalization: Improve voice clarity and ensure volume level consistency in media.
  • 360 Audio Settings: Turn on or off immersive audio features to experience surround sound.

Such simplified access makes switching your earbuds' settings an easy affair, right from the Quick Panel.

Per-App Sound Customization

Given the understanding that apps can have different audio settings, One UI 7.0 includes per-app sound customization. This allows you to personalize an app's audio. For instance, you could have more bass for your music streaming app and clear voice for your video calling app. You can set them up once and audio settings automatically apply whenever you use the concerned app, thus your audio will always be tuned and consistent to each platform.

Optimize Sound with Expert Hearing Test

To accommodate individual hearing profiles, One UI 7.0 also improves the Adapt Sound feature with an improved hearing test. The test identifies the ability of your ears and creates a tailored audio profile that adjusts frequencies to optimal levels for your ears. Or, users can opt to utilize pre-defined profiles by age groups:

Less than 30 years old: High frequency amplification.

30 to 60 years: Enhances mid and high frequencies.

Over 60 years: Enhances all frequencies.

This customized option renders sound output personalized to correspond to hearing needs, providing a more comfortable and richer listening experience.

Interpreter in Listening Mode

Shattering linguistic barriers, One UI 7.0 offers you the Listening Mode Interpreter feature. The feature translates in real time words that people utter from conversation words to your Galaxy Buds real-time. Either when you visit foreign countries or communicate with native inhabitants who use different languages, the feature immediately interprets the being said things into your language within milliseconds so that you can chat and listen freely without constantly reaching for your phone.

Adaptive Noise Control Enhancements

Following the standard of current noise-cancelling technology, One UI 7.0 introduces Adaptive Noise Control on Galaxy Buds 3 series. It dynamically adjusts levels of noise cancelling according to the environment you are in so you enjoy the finest available sound if you are indoors or in a café. In addition, it comes with:

Voice Detection: Detects when you are talking and automatically reduces volume of media so you can talk without doing so yourself.

Siren Detection: Detects emergency notifications, like sirens, and modifies audio profiles so that you're always notified of impending danger.

They're all user convenience and safety-oriented features, responding in real-time to dynamic environmental variables.

New Widget Design

To further supplement the performance enhancements, One UI 7.0 also brings with it a new widget to the Galaxy Buds 3 lineup. The new widget is consistent with the rest of One UI 7.0's design, providing an unobtrusive and clean look. Key earbud functionality and information, including battery life and connectivity settings, are readily available from the home screen through this widget.

Availability

While these features will arrive on the Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, keep in mind that they will be as part of the roll-out of One UI 7.0. Samsung hasn't provided an exact release date for the stable One UI 7.0 yet. Users will have to look out for releases through official Samsung channels for news on release times.

Conclusion

Samsung One UI 7.0 update injects a wave of premium features and controls to Galaxy Buds 3 series, improving user convenience, personalization, and listening experience as a whole. All these advancements are the final testament to Samsung's dedication to combining best-of-breed technology with ease of use design to deliver richer audio experience in a subtle way to Galaxy ecosystem users.
