When Samsung takes inspiration from Apple and Nothing… The new Galaxy Buds 3 are already making headlines even before their official release.
Samsung is preparing to unveil its new Galaxy Buds 3, and the least we can say is that they do not go unnoticed. With a design that flirts dangerously with that of AirPods, is the Korean giant taking risks or protecting its back?
Gone is the compact and discreet look of previous models, Samsung is opting for a radically different approach with its Galaxy Buds 3. The renderings leaked by leaker Onleaks show headphones with stems, furiously reminiscent of Apple’s AirPods. A choice that is sure to make fans of the brand react.
But Samsung didn’t just copy and paste Apple’s design. The Galaxy Buds 3’s stems appear more square, with a distinctive triangular tip. A detail that could well be Samsung’s personal touch to stand out from the competition.
The case is exposed
If the headphones do the talking, the case is not left out. Still elliptical in shape, it expands and adopts a transparent cover, this time reminiscent of the Nothing Ear. A trend towards transparency that seems to be winning over the wireless earphone industry.
This new design is not just aesthetic. The case incorporates LEDs for each earpiece, as well as a central indicator. A practical feature that allows you to know the charging status of each component at a glance.
Pro vs Standard: what differences are expected?
Samsung should offer two versions of its new headphones: the Galaxy Buds 3 and the Buds 3 Pro. While the design looks identical, we can expect additional features on the Pro version to justify its higher price. Active noise reduction, already present on previous models, should be improved. The standard Buds 3 could be satisfied with passive isolation, thus maintaining a more accessible price positioning. A strategy comparable to that of Apple.

This leak comes a few weeks before the Samsung Unpacked event, scheduled for July 10. The Galaxy Buds 3 will not be the only stars of Unpacked 2024. Samsung should also lift the veil on its new foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6. Without forgetting the mysterious Galaxy Ring, which could well be the surprise of the event. And finally, the Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra.
