Featured image for Galaxy Buds 3 case leaks hints Samsung inspired by AirPods Pro case

Samsung could launch the Galaxy Buds 3 earbuds next month. A couple of images leaked on the internet imply Samsung may be inspired by Apple’s design philosophy. However, closer inspection suggests Samsung may have adopted a mainstream and popular design.

Does the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 case look familiar?

The latest iteration of the in-ear, Truly Wireless (TWS) earbuds from Samsung, called the Galaxy Buds 3 should launch alongside new foldables and smartwatches soon. Rumors and leaks about the Galaxy Buds 3 have already started to arrive.

A new leak includes two images, allegedly captured from Coupang, a Korean retail website. These images reportedly suggest the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 has already got a dedicated listing. Although the listing could be a placeholder, it contains two images of the TWS earbuds.

These images suggest Samsung may have adopted a completely new design for the Galaxy Buds 3. Instead of the prevalent “bean” design, Samsung may have opted for a rectangular design for the case, which now has a transparent lid.

The new design is quite practical as it allows users to visually confirm if the case contains the earbuds when not in use. Previous generations didn’t offer this convenience. The case now allows for a better placement of earbuds, which now slide inside their slot. Additionally, as we had previously reported, each earbud seems to have a longer stem.

Some recent rumors have claimed Samsung has changed the look and design of the earbuds. However, the latest leak suggests the company may have altered the case that holds the earbuds.

When will Samsung launch its latest in-ear TWS earbuds?

The Samsung Galaxy Unpacked Summer 2024 event is scheduled for July 10, 2024. The company is expected to announce a slew of next-gen products. The earbuds would undoubtedly be a part of the event.

If the leaked images turn out to be accurate, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 and the case for these earbuds will surely attract a lot of attention. However, the design isn’t path-breaking. Several accessory makers have similar-looking products.

The new design for the case is quite common. Apple may have first used the same. However, several companies have adopted the design, albeit with some slight design tweaks.

The leaked design is indeed practical. However, some social media users have indicated such clear lids scratch easily. It would be interesting to see how Samsung mitigates this common complaint.
