Best Buy has the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro at $139.99. That puts them $40 below the current Amazon listing and well under their original retail price of $249.99. Samsung positions the Buds 3 Pro as its best-sounding wireless earbuds yet, and Best Buy's price is the lowest across the three major retailers carrying them.

The design uses a stemmed format comparable to the AirPods Pro. Reviewer Chris Welch described the sound as "full and detailed," pointing to strong bass and treble, and praised the transparency mode and call quality separately. The aesthetic reads as bland by his account, but the audio performance carries the product's argument.

Voice commands run without a wake phrase. Spoken instruction handles volume and media playback directly, with nothing needed to activate. The microphone performs clearly on calls while in motion. The review rates battery life as excellent for the wireless earbud category. The earbuds carry an IP57 rating for water and dust resistance.

Amazon holds at $249.99. Walmart has the same model at $169.88. Whether either retailer moves toward Best Buy's print is the next level to watch.

Three other deals are running in the same window. The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is at $399 on Amazon, $100 off its usual price. The camera mounts to a handheld gimbal for steady shots while in motion and records 4K video at 120 frames per second. Philips Hue smart plugs are $77.48 for a four-pack on Amazon, where each unit normally runs $37.99; the plugs connect via Bluetooth or, with a Philips Hue Bridge, through full smart home integration. Woot has the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless gaming headset at $239.99, down from $379.99, with multi-system connectivity through a USB hub, active noise canceling, and swappable batteries. The code WOOTGAMING takes an additional $5 off per account at checkout.
