On Wednesday, Samsung unveiled Galaxy Buds 2 during its Galaxy Unpacked event in South Korea. The Galaxy Buds, which were introduced in February 2019, have been replaced by the company’s true wireless stereo (TWS) earphones. The earbuds are also an update to the Galaxy Buds+, which were released last year, based on the new capabilities. The device features a streamlined appearance and is available in a variety of colours, according to the firm.

Galaxy Buds 2 features and price

The newly released earphones are priced at $149.99 (roughly Rs 11,100). Customers may choose from four colour options: Graphite, Lavender, Olive, and White. The product will be available in certain regions starting August 27th, according to the firm. The business has not stated when the device would be released in India, nor has it specified pricing for the country. If the company’s prior products are any indication, the earbuds will cost almost the same as or slightly more than the price indicated for US markets. The Galaxy Buds 2 and Galaxy Buds+ earbuds were several hundred dollars more costly in India than they were in the United States.

There are three microphones in all in the earbuds, and two of them will operate to provide active noise cancellation (ANC). With the offering, the business has also included AKG-tuned audio. The earbuds will include Bluetooth v5.2 connectivity and a total of six equaliser settings that users may tune from their phone settings.

The firm has also given comprehensive data of its battery performance in many methods, as the battery is one of the most significant factors for customers. The firm claims that the earbuds would last for up to 29 hours on a single charge. The earbuds will last for 7.5 hours on a single non-stop playback. The firm also stated that if customers enable active noise cancellation (ANC), the battery life will be reduced to around 20 hours. Furthermore, the business claims that the earbuds may last up to an hour after a quick five-minute charge.
