One UI 8.5 Leak Points to 42mAh Galaxy Buds 4 and 57mAh Buds 4 Pro Batteries

Code references suggest opposite capacity shifts with battery life still unconfirmed.

Overview

  • Android Authority identified the figures in One UI 8.5 code, which SamMobile and Android Headlines reported as 42mAh per Buds 4 earbud and 57mAh per Buds 4 Pro earbud.
  • Compared with current models, the Buds 4 would drop from the Buds 3’s 48mAh, while the Buds 4 Pro would rise from the Buds 3 Pro’s 53mAh.
  • Outlets note that real-world endurance will depend on chipset efficiency, ANC implementation, radios, and software power management rather than capacity alone.
  • Related leaks point to a flatter-stem design, a horizontally opening case with a locator button and beeper, and features such as 360 Audio, Adaptive Noise Control, head gestures, improved Interpreter, Phone Locator, and Quick Pairing.
  • Reporting frames these details as unconfirmed pre-launch leaks with an expected early-2026 Galaxy Unpacked debut alongside the Galaxy S26 series.
