The first leaked Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro images are here at last

We haven’t been able to say this very often in recent years, but Samsung has really managed to do a decent job of keeping the designs of its next big products under wraps for a change… until now.

Unfortunately for the world’s largest smartphone maker and number two vendor of both smartwatches and true wireless earbuds, the sheer force of nature that is Evan Blass knows not the meaning of the words “rest” or “secret”, leaking the Galaxy Watch 5 and Watch 5 Pro in all their glory yesterday and following that up with our first high-quality (and high-confidence) look at the upcoming Galaxy Buds 2 Pro.

Of course, active noise cancellation is present on all three products, and although the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro look decidedly familiar in all three colors depicted today, they’re somehow noticeably different from all of their forerunners as well.

Both the white and “bora purple” flavors, for instance, are set to come with black holes, microphones, and large speaker grills giving the new buds a fresh air of distinction, and much like the OG Buds Pro (but not the Buds 2), all three versions will ship alongside matching charging cases (both inside and out).
