This should hardly be surprising, but Samsung’s next set of true wireless earbuds are rumored to be a direct competitor to the Airpods Pro: the Galaxy Buds+.
Samsung Galaxy Buds+ Leaked
The tip comes from notorious smartphone leaker Evan Blass, @evleaks on Twitter. He has a long history of supplying the Internet with accurate information on upcoming smartphones before the official announcements.
The tweet is short, but speaks volumes: “First came the AirPods Pro… …then came the Galaxy Buds+.”
This means we can reasonably expect to see active noise-cancellation and a jump in price from the original Galaxy Buds.
With Apple, Bose, and Sony all rolling out noise-cancelling earbuds, it would only make sense that Samsung join the party. We’re not sure whether the price will be lower than the competition, or on par.
But there aren’t a ton of noise-cancelling options on the market currently, and fewer still for less than $200. If the price is right, the Galaxy Buds+ could become a very competitive option indeed.
The new Galaxy S11 however, won’t launch until well into 2020. Chances are that Samsung will release the Galaxy Buds+ and the S11 in sync, so we’ll just have to wait and see.
