Samsung‘s big hardware launch event next month may not bring a new pair of wireless earbuds. Industry insiders suggest that the company won’t unveil the rumored Galaxy Buds 3 at the Galaxy Unpacked event on July 27. It may separately launch the new earbuds later.
Samsung has already sent out press invites for its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event in South Korea. According to Twitter tipster SnoopyTech, the company recently provided retailers and carriers with infographics about the new devices it has in the pipeline. Those materials contained information on the Galaxy Tab S9 series flagship tablets and the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 foldables. But there was no mention of new audio products.
This, coupled with the fact that there has been hardly any leak or rumor about the Galaxy Buds 3 so far, suggests Samsung doesn’t plan to launch the new earbuds next month. The same has been confirmed by another noted tipster Max Jambor. He claimed that the Korean firm has “no new audio products” in the pipeline, at least not for July’s Galaxy Unpacked. Max didn’t confirm whether the Galaxy Buds 3 will debut at a later date.
It’s worth noting that Samsung is also readying a couple of new smartwatches with plans to unveil them at Galaxy Unpacked next month. Leaks about the Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic have been coming fairly regularly over the past couple of months or so, though not as frequently as the upcoming foldables and tablets. The latter category of devices usually gets more media attention, so that isn’t surprising.
However, it’s unclear whether Samsung has shared information on the new wearables with retailers and carriers. If it hasn’t, then the company will probably send out a second round of infographics in the coming days. While the chances are slim, we can’t completely rule out the possibility of the Galaxy Buds 3 featuring those materials. We will let you know as soon as we have more information about Samsung’s upcoming products.
If not in July, the Galaxy Buds 3 could arrive alongside the Galaxy S23 FE
Samsung may not be rushing to launch new earbuds because its last pair are still incredible. Launched in August 2022, the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro can hold its own against rivals even today. The company may offer the pair at a discounted price once the new tablets and foldables are official. As far as the Galaxy Buds 3 are concerned, Samsung could launch them alongside the Galaxy S23 FE. The new FE phone is expected to arrive in October in some markets.
