Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 images leak showing a distinctive design

Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Buds 3 at its next Unpacked event in early July alongside the Galaxy Z Fold6, Galaxy Z Flip6, Galaxy Watch7, and Galaxy Watch Ultra.

Today a case maker has leaked the design of the Buds 3 along with their case, and the oft-rumored switch to a stem design is confirmed.

While stem-style earbuds are generally instantly branded as knocking off Apple's design, since the original AirPods were the first to employ such a look, the Galaxy Buds 3 shown in these images seem to be different enough - especially when it comes to the stem itself, which has a much more angular design than Apple's products. Of course, the silver/gray color helps differentiate them too.

The Galaxy Buds 3 should have active noise cancelation, and it's very likely that Samsung will also launch Galaxy Buds 3 Pro alongside these. It's unclear what the differences between the 'vanilla' and Pro models will be, but we can assume the sound quality will be better on the Pros while the Buds 3 will be more affordable.
