As long as you don’t compare them to the absolute best wireless earbuds money can buy right now, Samsung’s ultra-affordable Galaxy Buds FE are undeniably great at everything from actively cancelling out noise to leveraging cutting-edge Galaxy AI technology for live translation purposes and playing music in exceptional overall quality for hours on end.
As unlikely as it sounds, the company’s next budget-friendly AirPods alternative might be able to hold its own in a head-to-head battle against the costlier and technically higher-end Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, at least in one key department.
Yes, the Galaxy Buds 3 FE are expected to deliver better battery life than both of those 2024-released products, as well as the original Galaxy Buds Fan Edition from a couple of years back. That may explain (at least in part) why Samsung will reportedly skip the Galaxy Buds 2 FE branding to line up the name of its second-gen low-cost earbuds with the rest of the 2025 family.
Now, the actual battery capacity numbers tipped for the Galaxy Buds 3 FE today are pretty insane, standing at 200mAh in total for the earbuds themselves and 900mAh as far as the bundled charging case is concerned. For comparison, the first-gen Galaxy Buds FE come with 60mAh cell capacity per bud (obviously amounting to a modest 120mAh), while the charging case stands at a similarly unimpressive 480mAh or so.
The numbers of the super-premium (and super-expensive) Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are not much higher, actually starting at a lower 53mAh per bud and adding 515mAh juice from their charging case.
Does that all mean the Galaxy Buds 3 FE will somehow be able to deliver twice as high running times between charges compared to both the OG Galaxy Buds FE and last year’s Galaxy Buds 3 Pro? Probably not, but a real-world battery life upgrade is now essentially guaranteed for this increasingly exciting product likely to see daylight alongside the Galaxy S25 FE handset at some point this fall.
