Samsung has officially launched its Galaxy Buds4 Pro wireless earbuds, priced from £219 or £18.25 per month. The new earbuds feature upgraded sound quality, enhanced active noise cancellation (ANC), and AI-powered features for smarter calls and music. They are designed to integrate seamlessly with Galaxy smartphones, tablets, and watches, with automatic device switching.
Design and Comfort Upgrades
Samsung refined the design for a more comfortable fit during extended use. The earbuds feature a 'new blade design' and come in three colours: white, black, and pink gold. Upgraded microphones and intelligent voice processing aim to deliver clearer calls even in noisy environments. Galaxy AI features enable live translation tools and other smart functions when paired with supported Galaxy devices.
Battery Life and Durability
Battery life has been improved, with the charging case providing extra power on the go. The earbuds retain water resistance for everyday use. Touch controls allow users to manage music, calls, and voice assistants without reaching for their phone.
Early Reviews: Sound Quality Praised
Early user reviews are positive. One buyer said: "These are absolutely brilliant and a massive upgrade to the Galaxy Buds3 Pros. The ANC is amazing and a step up from the predecessors. The battery lasts ages, and they are comfortable too. Barely feel like I am wearing them. The clarity and bass of the sound are top-notch." Another added: "Tremendous sound improvement from the 3 Pros. ANC is massively improved, likewise Ambient sound (sounds more natural)."
However, some users noted drawbacks. One reviewer said: "The noise cancellation isn't as strong as advertised, and background noise is still noticeable." Another commented: "The 4 Pro still doesn't seem to fit as snugly as the 2 and 1 Pro did. They seem to be very loose."
Alternative Options
For those not needing the latest model, the Galaxy Buds3 Pro remain available from £7 per month at Sky, offering premium sound, adaptive noise cancelling, and a comfortable fit. Alternatively, the Apple AirPods Pro 3 with MagSafe Charging Case are priced at £219 at Argos, featuring Bluetooth 5.3 and touch controls.
The Galaxy Buds4 Pro are available from Samsung.
