Samsung Rumored to Introduce Bone-Conducting Earphones at July Event

The earphones, codenamed 'Able,' are expected to debut alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and feature open-ear designs for safer listening.

Samsung is reportedly developing its first bone-conduction earphones, which may launch at the Unpacked event in July.
The earphones, internally codenamed 'Able,' are designed to transmit sound through the skull or around the ear without entering the ear canal.
This technology aims to improve safety for outdoor activities like running or cycling by allowing users to hear ambient sounds such as traffic or warnings.
Approximately 1.7 million units are expected to be manufactured in 2025, representing 15% of Samsung's total earphone shipments for the year.
Details on pricing, design, and availability remain unclear, but leaks suggest Samsung could be targeting the niche bone-conduction market dominated by brands like Shokz and Philips.
