My pre-order Buds3 Pro finally arrived. They work fine however quite a few features are missing in the Wear app (running a fully up to date S23). For example, under Sound Quality and Effects section there is no 'boost dialogue', 'loudness normalisation', or 'advanced quality options' which should include the ultra high quality (UHQ) option. All these features are documented in the user guide.

There are many online posts already with users complaining about this. So basically, once again, Samsung advertising and shipping products with features that are not there. This behaviour is a pattern for Samsung, especially in our region (Australia) where OneUI comes crippled compared to some of the other regions. Wouldn't be so bad if there was transparency and clarity about it, but there isn't and that's really poor!

      The features are available now on the Flip6 & Fold6, and as @nxmah noted, will come to some other devices, presumably, with the next update.

      Further, Samsung does advise that some features will become avaliable with One UI 6.1.1 or higher, but I guess people don't read the fine print?

      Here's an example relating to UHQ (24/96) support.1724875758387_1724875758379_0.png

      The buds launched (until the QC problems were found) with the Flip6 and Fold6, amongst other things, so yes, devices supporting the new features were ready.

      It is not uncommon for there to be a month or so wait, for other supported devices to be brought up to speed with the latest software.
      This is nothing new and I feel not unique to Samsung.

      New products, particularly phones and related accessories will frequently launch with a window of exclusivity, and this was no different.

      Just my thoughts, nothing more.

      Which features?
      I haven't transferred mine to the S24U yet, they're still paired to my Flip6.

      You could try removing them, and pair again.
      Otherwise, use the Members app, and send an error report.
