Samsung’s Galaxy Buds lineup has been a success. After the modest launch of the Galaxy Buds two years ago, the company has upped the game by launching the Galaxy Buds+, Galaxy Buds Live, and the Galaxy Buds Pro. Now, the company is looking to launch the successor to the original Galaxy Buds and the Galaxy Buds+.
The Galaxy Buds 2 (SM-R177) design has been leaked ahead of the official launch, thanks to the truly wireless earbuds’ FCC certification. The upcoming earbuds appear to have a design similar to the Galaxy Buds Pro rather than the Galaxy Buds and the Galaxy Buds+. Even the case has a rounded square design, similar to the Galaxy Buds Pro, which means that Samsung is moving away from the older, pill-shaped case design.
The images found in the FCC certification showcase that the Galaxy Buds+ have infrared sensors for automatic wear detection and metal connectors for charging. While the upcoming truly wireless earbuds are only visible in the black color, we should expect a few more colors, going by the company’s history.
