Apple - AirPods Pro 2 (USB-C) vs Samsung - Galaxy Buds 3

These two are evenly matched on the broad strokes, with the decision sitting on which individual spec advantages weigh more for your use.

Pick the AirPods Pro 2 (USB-C) if you care most about battery — with case. The biggest gaps in its favor are battery — with case.

Pick the Galaxy Buds 3 if audio quality and feature breadth (ANC, codecs, multipoint) are the lead criteria for your purchase. Its strongest claims are multipoint, weight per bud, water resistance.

Both ship with comparable battery — buds, active noise cancellation, driver size, so those specs don't separate the two — focus on the differences below.

Bottom line: there is no wrong answer here — match the spec advantages to how you actually use the product. The Mars Score parity tells you both are well-rounded; the differences are about trade-offs, not quality.
