Samsung Unveils Galaxy Buds4 Range with Enhanced Audio and Innovative Features
On February 26 AEDT in San Francisco, Samsung introduced its latest audio devices, the Galaxy Buds4 and Galaxy Buds4 Pro, alongside the highly anticipated Galaxy S26 Series mobile phones. This launch highlights Samsung's commitment to sound excellence, backed by its ownership of renowned audio brands like JBL, Denon, and Harman.
Crisp and Resonant Sound Quality
The Galaxy Buds4 range delivers exceptional audio with a natural base of 24-bit and 96kHz Hi-Fi audio, ensuring true-to-original sound reproduction. Samsung has integrated a new wider woofer and tweeter with an upgraded 2-way speaker, resulting in rich, full, and clear sound. Kylie Mason, Head of Wearables at Samsung Electronics Australia, explained, "With this hardware update, we have maximised speaker size, allowing users to experience diverse instrument ranges, from high violins to deep contrabass, as if in the room." The Buds4 Pro also features adaptive ANC and EQ for powerful noise cancellation and personalised sound adjustments, along with a Super Clear Call function for crystal-clear voice quality in noisy environments.
Hands-Free Gesture Technology
A standout innovation in the Galaxy Buds4 range is the Head Gestures feature, designed for convenience when hands are occupied. Users can nod to accept calls, shake to decline, or trigger Bixby controls without physical interaction. Kylie Mason noted, "Hands-free gestures minimise disruption, enabling seamless call management during daily tasks like shopping or multitasking." This technology enhances usability in busy scenarios, making it ideal for modern lifestyles.
Sleek and Functional Design
The Galaxy Buds4 and Buds4 Pro boast a stylish metal blade design, refined through extensive global ear data research and over 10,000 simulations for optimal comfort and fit. Kylie Mason stated, "We have improved on the Galaxy Buds3 Series, offering a more aesthetic and functional design." Updates include a concave pinch control for easy sound adjustments and a cradle-style case for effortless storage and access, ensuring a satisfying user experience.
Language Interpreter Feature
The popular language interpreter feature returns in the Galaxy Buds4 range, providing real-time, two-way translation when paired with compatible Galaxy AI mobiles. Using the Interpreter app, it supports natural conversations in Conversation Mode and one-way translations in Listening Mode, perfect for lectures or tours. Controls like pause and resume are managed via touch on the earbuds, though availability varies by region and requires a Samsung Account.
Preorders for the Galaxy Buds4 and Buds4 Pro began on February 26, with orders starting from March 11. Prices are set at $299 for the Galaxy Buds4 and $399 for the Galaxy Buds4 Pro, offering advanced audio technology and convenience for consumers.
