Overview
- Android Authority identified an asset named "list_ic_earbuds_buds4" in a leaked One UI 8.5 build that explicitly references Galaxy Buds 4.
- The icon shows an earbud with an angled body and a rounded, seemingly separated stem.
- The illustration includes a silicone in-ear tip, a feature absent on the base Galaxy Buds 3 but present on the Buds 3 Pro.
- Reporting on the same software build mentions a reference to Buds 4 Pro testing, with details remaining unclear.
- Samsung has provided no confirmation or launch window, and the finding follows last year’s Buds 3 release and reported executive dissatisfaction with Apple-like designs.
