Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro Just Leaked — Watch AirPods Pro Rivals from Every Angle

Samsung's Galaxy Buds Pro has leaked again, this time with a full reveal of the wireless earbuds ahead of their rumored January release date.

Seasoned leaker Evan Blass posted an obvious promotional 360-degree video of the upcoming wireless earbuds, showcasing the "Phantom Black" model from every angle.

This is our best look yet at Samsung's answer to the AirPods Pro, after static images of the Galaxy Buds Pro color options leaked earlier this month via Blass. From these new angles, we can see everything from the shiny caps on each bud to the tip shape intended to seal in the new buds' main feature: active noise cancellation.

These are the kind of features that make the Galaxy Buds Pro the best wireless earbuds alongside the AirPods Pro. The newly leaked video does not share any other information about specs or features, but this Samsung FCC certification points to the use of Bluetooth 5.1. As a result, the Galaxy Buds Pro will likely have a more powerful and stable wireless connection than its latest predecessor, the Galaxy Buds Live.

Filings with the FCC also reveal that the Galaxy Buds Pro charging case will have a 500mAh battery. This is larger than the 472mAh unit in the Galaxy Buds Live case and is likely to last longer. Individual buds batteries are consistent at 60mAh.

Previous rumors have put the price of the Galaxy Buds Pro at $199. This is more expensive than the $169 Galaxy Buds Live, but cheaper than the AirPods Pro, which cost $249 at launch. However, the AirPods Pro is often sold for $199 in various AirPods promotions.

Expect to learn more in January, as leaks of Samsung's Galaxy S21 hint at a January 14 launch event for the next flagship smartphone. Samsung typically announces several products during these early-year events, so the Galaxy Buds Pros could be officially revealed as part of that same launch.
