(Epitome credit: Evan Blass)

Another apparent Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 leak has sprung, and in terms of showing the wireless earbuds' blueprint it might be the most revealing one yet.

Leaker Evan Blass tweeted a serial of unofficial render images, which show what he claims are the Galaxy Buds 2 earbuds and charging case in a range of colors. These include green and royal models, which nosotros've seen in a previous reported leak. In fact, Blass' images include higher-quality versions of some of the same renders.

Obviously we can't say for sure whether these renders are authentic, merely Blass generally has a pretty good record in this expanse.

While they don't cast any light on rumored features such every bit the Milky way Buds 2 potentially having active noise counterfoil, the renders do line upward with what we've seen and heard virtually the headphones so far. The shape seemingly takes inspiration from the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro, merely with a uniform glossy texture throughout.

The mix of colors — black, white, green and majestic — is also consistent with existing rumors and pre-release images. More generally, the renders depict a somewhat simpler design than that of the Galaxy Buds Pro, adding acceptance to suggestions that the Milky way Buds ii will land somewhere between Samsung'southward premium earbuds and the Galaxy Buds Plus on features and pricing. Note, for ane, the lack of microphone grilles; co-ordinate to these renders, the onboard mics instead await to be housed inside a unproblematic recessed hole.

Speaking of pricing, MySmartPrice previously claimed that the Milky way Buds 2 volition toll as much as $237: a pretty unbelievable prospect when the Galaxy Buds Pro have dropped as low as $169 through discounts. MySmartPrice has since revised that sum to the much more reasonable €149, or virtually $175. TechRadar has besides reported a very like price estimate, almost to the dollar.

Given $175 sits between the Galaxy Buds Plus and Galaxy Buds Pro'due south corresponding launch prices, we'd therefore look the existent price to at least be in this ballpark. It may benefit from going a piddling lower, though, to avoid competing with the Milky way Buds Pro likewise much.

The (declared) mass leaking of product images often heralds the imminent arrival of that product, though in this instance we've got a pretty good idea of when the Milky way Buds 2 might launch: at that place's a Samsung Milky way Unpacked outcome on August eleven, with the new earbuds, the Milky way Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy Watch 4 all heavily tipped to make appearances.
