Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro confirmed on Samsung Site - AirPods Pro rivals revealed

While we are wondering how Samsung plans to compete with Apple's popular AirPods Pro, we have definitive proof that new Galaxy Buds are coming soon. This leak comes from Samsung.

As discovered by Sammobile over the weekend, Samsung Canada briefly posted information about the Galaxy Buds Pro, a wireless earphone rumored to be in the works as a competitor to the Apple AirPods Pro. As of this morning (January 3), the listing has been closed, but it was posted long enough for sharp-eyed shoppers to see that the release of the new earbuds is imminent. [The Galaxy Buds Pro is rumored to be Samsung's high-end earbuds. Expected features include active noise cancellation, 3D audio to compete with Apple's spatial audio capabilities, and an ambient mode that allows users to hear surrounding conversations. The Galaxy Buds Pro may also support Dolby Atmos.

The listing for the Galaxy Buds Pro on Samsung Canada's website listed few of these features. All that was listed was the product name and model number. We don't even know the price of the upcoming earbuds.

Fortunately, other sources told us what we could expect in terms of cost for the Galaxy Buds Pro. Previous Galaxy Buds Pro rumors put the price at $199, which is a $50 discount from the AirPods Pro.

We will soon find out what features the Galaxy Buds Pro will offer and at what price. The new earbuds are expected to appear with the Galaxy S21 lineup, and after this article was first published, Samsung confirmed that it would make a product announcement on January 14. We expect to see both the new phone and the Galaxy Buds Pro then.
