Samsung’s Galaxy Fold foldable phone and line of Galaxy S10 line of smartphones may have attracted most of the attention at the company’s latest Unpacked event, but its latest earbuds may be the most interesting, and affordable, new product for many.
Called the Galaxy Buds, the new $129.99 earbuds are Samsung latest attempt to rival Apple’s AirPods.
Smaller than company’s earlier wireless earbuds, the Gear IconX, the Galaxy Buds will be available on March 8 in either black or white – with yellow as an option outside the U. S. – and feature Bluetooth 5.0 and dual microphones to improve call quality. For those pre-ordering the new Galaxy S10, which goes on sale the same day, Samsung is including a pair of the new buds for free.
A new “quick pairing” feature allows you to easily connect the Buds to a Galaxy phone or tablet through the company’s SmartThings app, a feature that seems to mimic the ease of pairing AirPods with iPhones and iPads.
