TL;DR<\/p>\n
We\u2019ve found animations confirming the new design and features of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro.
\nThe earbuds appear to be getting a powerful, new \u201cHead Gestures\u201d feature.
\nSamsung appears to be ditching the Buds 3 Pro\u2019s sharp, triangular aesthetic in favor of a flatter stem and as well as a redesigned charging case.<\/p>\n
Samsung\u2019s next-gen wireless earbuds \u2014 the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro \u2014 are expected to launch<\/a> alongside the Galaxy S26 series. Mentions of the buds have been popping up<\/a> for months, including traces in leaked One UI 8.5 firmware. But now, we\u2019ve exclusively obtained new One UI 8.5 animations that showcase the earbuds and their features in detail.<\/p>\n These leaked animations confirm the redesigned look of the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro, a style that may also carry over to the standard Buds 4. This is our most complete look yet at the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro, along with a major new feature Samsung is preparing to debut.<\/p>\n A first proper look at the Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro design\n<\/p>\n Back in October, we reported<\/a> on a vector-based render that hinted at Samsung\u2019s revamped earbud design. Later, we exclusively revealed<\/a> the codenames for both upcoming models:<\/p>\n Galaxy Buds 4: \u201cHandel\u201d Now, the leaked One UI 8.5 animations show the actual Galaxy Buds 4 Pro hardware, confirming the stem-style design is sticking around, but with notable refinements. Samsung appears to be ditching the Buds 3 Pro\u2019s sharp, triangular aesthetic<\/a> in favor of a flatter stem. The distinctive light bar on the stem also appears to be gone, though the pinch controls seem intact.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n We also get a clearer look at the in-ear tips and a redesigned charging case. Instead of dropping vertically into the case like previous models, the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro now appear to lay flat inside, similar to other recent premium earbuds.<\/p>\n There\u2019s still no confirmation on whether the standard Buds 4 will follow the same design language, but if Samsung follows the Buds 3\/Buds 3 Pro playbook, the base model is likely to receive a similar redesign.<\/p>\n Galaxy Buds 4 Pro: Head Gestures\n<\/p>\n We also looked into code strings in the leaked One UI 8.5 build and found that Samsung is integrating a new \u201cHead Gestures\u201d feature in the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. A similar feature is currently found in a limited form on Sony earbuds, including the WF-1000XM5<\/a>, and Google\u2019s Pixel Buds Pro 2<\/a>. However, Samsung\u2019s version isn\u2019t just limiting the functionality to just answering or declining calls.<\/p>\n According to the strings found in One UI 8.5, Head Gestures on the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro will allow users to do the following:<\/p>\n Respond to calls, notifications, and more by nodding or shaking head More features:\n<\/p>\n The leaked animations also preview a number of other Galaxy Buds 4 Pro features. Many of these already exist on the Buds 3 Pro, including:<\/p>\n 360\u00b0 recording If the leaked One UI 8.5 build is any indication, Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Buds 4 Pro will could be a big upgrade compared to the previous model. With a cleaner design, a new case layout, and new hands-free controls, Samsung seems to be preparing some pretty notable changes.<\/p>\n \u26a0\ufe0f An APK teardown helps predict features that may arrive on a service in the future based on work-in-progress code. However, it is possible that such predicted features may not make it to a public release.<\/p>\n![\"Galaxy](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Galaxy-Buds-4-Pro-New-Case.jpg\"\/ "\\"Galaxy")
