Samsung’s next premium earbuds may not be official yet, but they’re getting harder for the company to hide.
After first showing up inside the One UI 8.5 code last month, the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro have popped up again, this time with full design animations that confirm the suite of features the earbuds are coming with.
Galaxy Buds 4 Pro brings a new look and case
Spotted by AndroidAuthority, the Buds 4 Pro is getting a noticeable redesign. Samsung seems to be moving away from the pointy, triangular tip seen on the previous generation. The light bar on the stem is also gone. Instead, the new buds have a flatter stem with a slightly angular top.
The charging case is also getting a revamp. Samsung is switching to a clamshell-style case that opens from the top, and the earbuds now rest flat with their stems pointing upward.
There’s a small external LED indicator on the front, while the pairing button and USB-C port sit on the back.
The One UI animations don’t just show new hardware, though; they also spoil some new features. The new addition is something called “Head Gestures.”
As the name suggests, you’ll be able to nod your head to answer calls or respond to notifications. Samsung is also tying this gesture system into accessibility and hands-free controls, letting users hear notifications aloud, stop notification reading, dismiss alarms, or even answer yes/no prompts from an AI assistant without touching their phone.
Other returning and new features seen in the animations include 360-degree audio recording, Adaptive Noise Control, device-finding tools, and the usual pairing flows for phones and tablets.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 series will likely launch alongside the Galaxy S26 phones in February next year.
