Leaks Show Galaxy Buds 4 and 4 Pro With Redesigned Case as Samsung Prioritizes Build Quality

Industry reports describe a course correction to address the reliability complaints that dogged last year’s Buds 3 lineup.

Overview

  • ETNews reports that Samsung plans to unveil the Galaxy Buds 4 and Buds 4 Pro alongside the Galaxy S26 at the next Unpacked event, with multiple outlets pointing to February 25, though Samsung has not confirmed details.
  • The new earbuds are reportedly focused on practicality and sturdier construction to avoid issues seen on Buds 3 such as ear‑tip detachment, charging problems, inconsistent paint, and uneven Blade Lights.
  • Fresh renders published today show a rectangular charging case that sits flat with a transparent lid and earbuds positioned horizontally inside.
  • Design changes highlighted in the leaks include thinner, flatter stems and the removal of Blade Lights, with Buds 4 using an open design and Buds 4 Pro featuring silicone tips for a tighter seal.
  • Pricing is expected to align with the previous generation, with reports citing roughly KRW 219,000 for Buds 4 and KRW 319,000 for Buds 4 Pro in Korea and €179/€249 in Europe, all pending official confirmation.
