Previously there were rumors that Samsung has opted for an “AirPods-like” design language for its upcoming Galaxy Buds 3 series TWS earphones. Samsung is about to launch the new product at the Galaxy Unpacked event next week. However, real-life images of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro have already been revealed thanks to X tipster Roland Quandt. You can check out the design from the images below.
Galaxy Buds 3 Pro comes with a stem that is longer than the AirPods
As you can see, the new earphone from Samsung has ditched its traditional bean-shaped design for one with a long stem. The stem seems to be considerably longer than that of the AirPods Pro 2.
A Korean source speculated that this design change is due to the need for more internal volume, which lets the company increase the battery capacity and even fit more components inside. Previous reports also hint that the Galaxy Buds 3 series will be able to utilize some of the capabilities of Galaxy AI. The addition of new features could be a reason behind the design change that possibly allows the company to fit more or more capable components inside the earbuds.
An image of the base Galaxy Buds 3 (along with the charging case) leaked last month. These buds feature a stem-like design, but the stem appears slightly shorter than that of the Pro model. The standard version was shown in silver, revealing a unique angular design for the stem. For the Pro model, only parts of the design are visible, and upon closer inspection, it doesn’t seem like the stem is rounded either.
Nonetheless, these are leaked images and could represent one of the designs Samsung experimented with. Therefore, we may or may not see this exact design when Samsung officially reveals the product next week.
