Sony WF-1000XM5 Truly Wireless
Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro
Whether you prefer the Sony WF-1000XM5 Truly Wireless over the Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro may largely depend on your device's ecosystem. Both have warm sound profiles by default with in-app EQ. The Sony work the same with Android and iOS devices and have a longer battery life. They have multi-device pairing with up to two devices, too. On the other hand, if you're a Samsung user, you can seamlessly switch between different devices on the same Samsung account. Their mic also sounds more natural, and their IP57 rating outdoes the Sony's IPX4 rating. Finally, the Samsung also boast slightly better noise isolation overall, even if the Sony block bright sounds better.
