The first design leaks for Samsung’s highly anticipated new wireless earbuds, the Galaxy Buds 4, have surfaced online. The resulting images suggest the South Korean tech giant may be radically changing its long-standing design style for its headphone line. The new earbuds are expected to be officially unveiled alongside the company’s flagship phone, the Galaxy S26.

Galaxy Buds 4 is Coming

Samsung, which introduced the Galaxy Buds 3 series in July last year, is preparing to take a bolder step this year. A new software leak has revealed concrete clues about the potential design of the Galaxy Buds 4.

The earbuds in the leaked image have a less triangular shape compared to previous series. While the basic shape of the earbud stems remains intact, the lines appear to have been significantly rounded and flattened. This clearly indicates that the earbuds have been redesigned in terms of both aesthetics and ergonomics, offering a more modern look.

While no definitive information is yet available on the hardware and software front, the Galaxy Buds 4 is expected to feature significant improvements. The previous Galaxy Buds 3 series launched with features such as AI-powered live translation and sound profile optimization.

Industry expectations are that the Galaxy Buds 4 will further enhance these AI capabilities and offer users a more intuitive, personalized listening experience. The brand’s new rounded design and advanced AI features could be the most ambitious model in the series.
