Other than their spectacular form, the Buds Stay have been repairability-friendly. The blokes and gals at iFixit, who most likely have a greater understanding of the matter than most on the market, gave the Buds Stay a repairability rating of 8/10.
Now, iFixit’s workforce provides the Galaxy Buds 3 a rating of two/10, as in: “two out of ten“. That is such an extravagant collapse, it is nearly humorous.
What I additionally discover humorous is that this comes proper after Samsung determined to observe within the footsteps of Apple for the design of the Galaxy Buds 3 sequence (and the Galaxy Watch Extremely). This had penalties. No, I am not speaking about that bitter Samsung boss who lashed out at Samsung’s cell division for imitating Apple (though that is chucklesome as properly).
In distinction, I am taking a look at issues by way of on a holistic stage. Whereas Samsung have been true to their very own Galaxy Buds design, they obtained a rating of 8/10. Now that they have been closely impressed by Apple, they get a 2/10.
It is solely pure.
This is what iFixit’s Shahram Mokhtari says whereas tearing the Galaxy Buds 3:
These do look fashionable, however what considerations me is that Samsung might have additionally copied the zero out of ten repairability rating that we have seen on Apple’s AirPods. It was solely 4 years in the past that we gave the Galaxy Buds Stay a repairability rating of 8 out of 10, so an AirPods-like design would characterize a big regression for Samsung.
