As a result of a leak earlier this week, fans were concerned about the design of the Galaxy Buds 3. That leak raised questions about the authenticity of the product since it looked more like a cheap knockoff than a genuine Samsung product.

The Galaxy Buds 3 may not look as bad as previously thought thanks to a new leak from a more reliable source. According to Coupang, a leading e-commerce retailer in South Korea, this leak was spotted there. As the product’s launch is just around the corner, it’s understandable that these assets have already been uploaded.

The Galaxy Buds 3 looks completely different from previous models. Galaxy Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro are both expected to get a design refresh this year, with a design feature in the stems that brings to mind Apple’s AirPods.

As compared to the AirPods, the Galaxy Buds 3 seem to have more sharp angles and lines, making them appear sleeker. In spite of having stems that are reminiscent of the AirPods, Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 3 seem to have a more futuristic look and feel to them.

In the images, we see the Galaxy Buds 3 in a polished grey colour variant, which is absolutely stunning. This charging case has been redesigned from a horizontal to a vertical layout, with a transparent lid that adds a futuristic touch.

According to previous reports, the Galaxy Buds 3 will be equipped with a single driver, Active Noise Cancellation, and an IP57 dust and water-resistant rating. The new earbuds are expected to last 24 hours according to Samsung.

Many Samsung fans will be looking forward to the new Galaxy Buds 3 after seeing this new leak. Next month’s Unpacked event will take place just a couple of weeks before the launch.
