Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro open box can be a strong value when the unit truly arrives in excellent condition, with sound, ANC, battery life, and Samsung phone integration drawing praise. Clean pairs have come with original boxes, cables, and full tip sets, and the fit can be secure enough for running or yard work. The main risk is condition control, since some orders arrive heavily used, scratched, dirty, or missing tips, and a few white orders have been canceled for stock issues. A solid pick if you are comfortable with open box variability.
Samsung phone owners who want secure everyday listening, because the buds pair quickly, sound great, and stay in place during runs.
Earbud buyers who want a clean, unused-looking open-box unit, because units can arrive heavily used, scratched, dinged, filthy, or with missing tips and accessories.
Some units include the original box, USB-C cable, and a full set of tips, while others arrive missing the medium tips or with incomplete/third-party tips. If tips are missing, replacement ear pieces are easy to find and upgraded tips can be bought separately.
They can arrive like new with original box, cable, and all tips, but some units are heavily used, scratched, dirty, or missing tips. The safest expectation is that condition is hit-or-miss, so inspect immediately and return quickly if the unit looks worn.
Fit depends heavily on the ear tips and can be secure for running or yard work when the right size is used, but some units do not stay in as well as Gen2. Battery life is described as solid by some, while others call it awful for longer use or sleeping.
It pairs especially well with Samsung phones, with quick recognition and strong ANC/ambient performance on Galaxy devices. Switching between a Samsung phone and Windows or Mac can require manual reconnecting, and Teams mic volume on a MacBook can be low.
Update: Just got my pair in. Not a mark on the buds. Completely clean(I cleaned again anyways). Case pretty much the same. Nothing visible I can see. Exterior box looks like maybe was in store drawer or floor model? Provided ear tips are brand new(replacements oem or replacements not sure). Large ones fit well. USB-C cable. Updated case, each bud in about 4-5 mins in settings app on phone. Probably going to order replacements ear tips regardless. I also have a Galaxy S25+. It recognized it right away just opening case. Didn't even take buds out. Connected. Don't even need app anymore. Very nice. Sound is great for games and videos. Did a little testing already. Only haven't done phone calls yet but I am not really concerned with that.
Extra update: My version ordered was the white ones. Call quality great and messing with ambient and anc is really nice when needed. Ambient pass through is very clear and the anc is pretty strong. I'm thinking it just ear tips really holding it back.
Coming from Soundcore P30i's. Just overall more premium experience.

don't bother trying to order the white. i've placed several orders and they all get immediately cancelled due to stock not actually being available.
and every time that happens, i have to engage livechat for them to manually reissue my $10 Best Buy rewards certificate back to my account.

Same thing happened wit me too. Ordered twice, canceled both times.
Some of the worst earbuds I've purchased. They are cracked right after the warranty expired and now sweat can get in and they make a crackling noise. Hopefully they don't explode in my ears one day when exercising from sweat getting in and shorting something.

With all due respect such earbuds aren't made for exercise. You should go for Shokz 💯.
Picked up an excellent condition from my local best buy and it lived up to the description so far, came with original box and accessories, the buds and case are scratch less and really seem unused or at least cleaned very well.
I got a new one from Samsung and started using after few months of purchase and it broke in less than a year and Samsung wants to charge 170$ to fix it because it is out of warranty. I am never going buy these again.

Samsung phone owners who want secure everyday listening, because the buds pair quickly, sound great, and stay in place during runs.
People using them for flights or occasional travel, because the sound is strong and the battery is solid for light use.
Yard-work listeners who want strong noise blocking, because the ANC is effective and the buds stay secure in giant ears.
Gamers and video watchers who want clear wireless audio, because the sound is good for games and videos and supports low-latency streaming.
Earbud buyers who want a clean, unused-looking open-box unit, because units can arrive heavily used, scratched, dinged, filthy, or with missing tips and accessories.
People who need reliable exercise earbuds, because sweat can get inside and cause crackling or early failure.
Shoppers who switch constantly between a Samsung phone and a Windows PC, because device handoff can require manual reconnecting.
Buyers who want a secure fit without trying different tip sizes, because fit can make or break comfort and falling out ruins the experience.
