      Yep, cause they are basically just using a reskinned Google Bard/Gemini.

      Note: The subscription fees applies to all devices that supports Galaxy AI (ie. Phones).

      wow subscription model

      dang hopefully it doesnt apply for the ring (not released in AU yet, and doesnt appear to have any AI related stuff - just analytics)

      • RichardL on 15/07/2024 - 13:22

        The Galaxy Ring has been 'enhanced with Galaxy AI' as per their US product page

          Noooooooo.

          I thought their excuse for a more expensive ring (compared to Oura) was that it does not require subscription.
          I genuinely hope the enhanced with Galaxy AI is more talking about something that does not require subscription (i.e. we found an algorithm for better sleep tracking using AI, or somehting like that).

            @iridiumstem: Samsung Health is confirmed as not requiring a subscription. I believe with AI-related subscriptions, it will refer to services that are not able to be done on-board by the device or your phone, i.e. it requires a cloud service to crunch the data.

            So the charge will be fair.

          • hotphil on 15/07/2024 - 13:31

            @iridiumstem: I've read it will need a subscription for things like advanced health features. And they're probably only unlocked if you use a Galaxy phone.

            And all i want is NFC payments. None of the health stuff. I'm assuming its a regulatory thing stopping anyone other than the short-lived Halo from having payments enabled. Only way seems to be having a EU or USA bank account to tie Curve or whatever to.

            • CyberMurning on 15/07/2024 - 14:05

                @CyberMurning: Sadly, those don't support payments.

                Ideally I want an implant, but even the ones they do in UK are workarounds (dissolve an existing card, monkey around, implant it) so they become useless when the card expiry date is reached

                • CyberMurning on 15/07/2024 - 15:45

                  @hotphil: ah well, maybe another 20 years. i really want it too. keyless, walletless, cardless, cashless.

      • bleemo on 15/07/2024 - 13:23

        Didn't know about the ring. Any idea if it will be released in AU?

      • DeToxin on 15/07/2024 - 13:31

        2060 and some company will probably require babies to "subscribe" to life on day 1. The subscription model and free to play model will be the death of good content/products.

    Buds3 Pro features a vivid new lightning design adorned with LED Blade Lights to brighten your listening.

    • zjz93 on 15/07/2024 - 13:21

      The LED's power draw is negligible and you could probably turn it off

      Buds3 is $50
      Buds3 Pro is $80

      Deal post is for the Pro (both standard and pro are the same price)

      • eggaz on 15/07/2024 - 13:27

        Ah yes, found them. Great deal with the $80 credit. Its a shame it doesnt work with ZIP10OFF.

        • bleemo on 15/07/2024 - 13:38

          When I put through the pre-order I had $15 promotion applied. Not exactly sure what promotion though….and I don't know how to check.

          Total paid was $283.00

          After 2% cashback on GCs, that's $277.34 and then the $80 credit after the order, that works out to $197.34.

          Not too bad imo

        And Android phones in general, at least you're able to download the Galaxy Wearables app and customise them there on any Android device. The GW app isn't available on iOS.

        Maybe. I use the airpods with my ipad and the NC is insane on them. Significantly better than when using a buds pro with my S23U

        Plus with all variations of Samsung buds, ive noticed they are prone to micro cracks at some point in time . Even the cases have developed micro cracks around usb c port just sitting on a desk.

            @Axelstrife: @axelstrife I have the Galaxy Buds+ and use it a lot just curious of your experience in regards to improvements between the iterations since. Read mixed reviews with battery usage since the + and the + not suiting everyone's ears but otherwise comparable. Will you upgrade again to the latest and why? In easternculture's defence have had a slight chip out of my case as mentioned by easternculture but I keep it in my front pocket so expected.

    • DingoBilly on 15/07/2024 - 13:58

      Most reviews so far suggest the buds 3 have better audio and voice cancelling.

      The buds 3 are obviously way newer so have an advantage in that space though.

        Guess ill wait a few months and grab one for less than a hundy (like i did with my buds pro 1 and 2) after marketplace gets flooded.

                @ruztynail: Proof of what?

                Most people dont know, but if you want cheap items on marketplace, only search and buy from rich suburbs. Its usually worth the 1 to 2 hr trip especially when they are selling a 2k item for a few hundred bucks

                • ruztynail on 15/07/2024 - 16:15

                  @easternculture: You mentioned above you got the buds 2 for $30 as per galaxy app.. i'm asking you to show your receipt of purchase..

                  thn your most recent post above talks about "marketplace" which has nothing to do with the app..

                  so what gives?

    • taki on 15/07/2024 - 14:18

      The only thing better on Apple is the mic sensitivity as it's closer but uglier & less comfortable & easier to fall, particularly vs Galaxy Buds Live if you use for sleep meditation.

      • harshbdmmaster718 on 15/07/2024 - 19:25

        the one thing I read/heard a lot is nothing comes close to apple's natural sounding ambient mode.

        but at the same time I have never owned airpods or anything in similar price range so can't confirm it myself. 😁

    How does it compare with my Anko that I bought 1.5 years ago and still goes strong.

    It turns on automatically when casing is opened, connects seemlessly to my phone, has a button for start/stop, has 3 hours or so charge, has additional casing charge, is stylish, and charged with USB-C also.

      • harshbdmmaster718 on 15/07/2024 - 19:30

        hmm good one. always looked for $1-$2 stuff to add to order to help push me over the spend when not on prime.

        last time I got a "spend any amount in certain category" and get $10 credit. luckily was on prime that month and just ordered laundry marker for $1.05, so claimed $9 savings easily.

        that marker is like $3 now so needed some other alternatives. used to have aussie made nylon cable ties that were always on backorder. it was an easy option because worst case extra cable ties, best case it gets cancelled after a month. couldn't find those last time.

    • kampret on 15/07/2024 - 13:57

            I requested my return 2 weeks ago, received a call from Samsung last Monday and was told to send them photos to prove the item is sealed for them to generate a return label.

            Haven't heard anything since, so I sent them a reminder. Received this in the morning
            "Thank you for your response, I am currently experiencing technical issues that is preventing me from initiating your return request at this time.

            Please know that I have raised this to our relevant team who are currently working on resolving this issue. I will provide you with an update once I have

        in other words don't make the mistake of buying from them direct. always go to retailer then you actually have a chance of getting something back.

      How can it be a copy if it has few more holes?

      Hi, apple Marketing. Isn't everything Apple does (better) copy of someone's invention with less marketing budget?
      This copy is the same way - better copy ;)

      Apple has copied Samsung for literally over 15 years. If you see a feature on a samsung phone, you'll see it on an apple phone 5 years later and watch apple sheep get excited over "new tech"
