Samsung Electronics Canada today announced the launch of its next-generation earbuds: Galaxy Buds Pro. These earbuds feature premium sound, crystal clear call quality, Intelligent ANC and enhanced connectivity across your Galaxy devices – all packed into a modern and sleek design. Galaxy Buds Pro represent the most premium earbuds offering by Samsung to-date, built to help you get the most out of your work, entertainment, and everything in between.
“As people look for technology that can help them adapt to new routines and lifestyles, the market for true wireless earbuds has expanded substantially, and consumer expectations have risen,” said TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile Communications Business, Samsung Electronics. “With Galaxy Buds Pro, we’re making a big statement with a small device, offering users a one-of-a-kind audio experience that makes even everyday tasks truly epic.”
A premium earbud experience always starts with sound. Whether you use your earbuds to play music while working out, listen to podcasts, or attend conference calls while working from home, audio quality is what matters most. Galaxy Buds Pro delivers powerful, clear sound, sporting an 11-millimeter woofer for deeper bass and a 6.5-millimeter tweeter for a crisp treble with minimum distortion. This delivers the best audio experience for earbuds by Samsung yet – a dynamic, balanced sound. So, whether it’s a rhythmic hip hop groove or intricate classical melody, you can enjoy your music just as the artist intended.
But earbuds aren’t just for entertainment anymore – they’ve become crucial for work communication, and call quality is now more important than ever. Galaxy Buds Pro separate your voice from unwanted sounds with three microphones and a Voice Pickup Unit (VPU), ensuring you are heard as clearly as possible. One of the outer microphones also has a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), further eliminating background noises. In addition, Samsung has integrated its new Wind Shield technology into Galaxy Buds Pro. While a less protrusive shape minimizes the wind contact area, a specially designed chamber and mesh filters out wind interference. Your voice comes through loud and clear, even if you’re stuck in windy weather.
The Galaxy Buds Pro experience is about hearing more of what you love, and less of what you don’t. That’s why Galaxy Buds Pro have the most Intelligent ANC capabilities of any Samsung true wireless earbuds[1] yet. When you need to focus on work—or tune out from the world around to relax—you can reduce the background noise by up to 99 percent[2], fine-tuning to your preferred level. And with Ambient Sound, you can choose to amplify nearby sounds by more than 20 decibels, meaning you can adjust and personalize your sound level according to your needs. With four Ambient levels, this feature is ideal for busy multitaskers – those working from home, while looking after a child or those who want to take a run through the city while staying alert for oncoming traffic.
What’s more, ANC and Ambient Sound automatically work together, adapting to your surroundings to optimize your audio experience through Voice Detect. This brand-new feature allows Galaxy Buds Pro to recognize when you’re speaking[3] so they can automatically switch between cancelling nearby sounds and amplifying them. They will also turn down your music when you want to talk, even if you are using Ambient Sound or have ANC turned off. This technology allows you to hear and communicate more effectively and makes Galaxy Buds Pro a worthy companion for daily use.
Galaxy Buds Pro are an integral extension of the Galaxy ecosystem – our most seamless earbuds yet. Now, you can automatically toggle your earbuds connection between your Galaxy smartphones and tablets based on your usage – no manual adjustments required[4]. For example, if you’re watching a video on your Galaxy Tab S7 and then receive a call on your Galaxy S21 5G, the all-new Auto Switch feature will pause the video and let you easily answer the phone using Galaxy Buds Pro. Once the call is over, your earbuds instantly switch back to your tablet and the video resumes playing.
Galaxy Buds Pro also expand your audio experience by connecting with other Galaxy devices – especially Galaxy S21 5G. With 360 Audio featuring Dolby Head Tracking technology[5], you can enjoy realistic and immersive sound on your Galaxy Buds Pro wherever you go, which enables you to stay at the centre of the scene. For vloggers, you can clearly capture your voice and surrounding sound by synchronizing the mics on your Galaxy Buds Pro and Galaxy S21 5G.[6] Galaxy Buds Pro also boast Game Mode[7], so when reduced audio latency is paired with the powerful performance and immersive display of the Galaxy S21 5G, you can take your gaming experience to the next level.
No matter how you use your Galaxy Buds Pro, you can do so without worrying about battery life. When fully charged, you get up to 8 hours of playback, with an additional 20 hours of reserve power available in the wireless charging case. Even when using ANC, you can still enjoy 5 hours of playback with 13 hours more available in the case[8]. If you end up running out of juice, you can gain approximately one hour of playtime after just five minutes of quick charging[9].
Galaxy Buds Pro aren’t just great to use, they also look great. Taking inspiration from Galaxy Buds Live’s innovative and iconic shape, Galaxy Buds Pro feature an updated, more ergonomic form factor and come in three stunning colours, including Phantom Violet, Phantom Black and Phantom Silver. The shape of the canal-type earbuds improves sound quality and looks less protrusive and more natural when placed in your ears. This new design also reduces the contact area between your ear and the bud, improving comfort and minimizing any clogged-up feeling.
In addition, Galaxy Buds Pro are designed to give you added peace of mind. They are protected with an IPX7 water resistance rating[10], the highest standard of water resistance in the Galaxy Buds line yet. Galaxy Buds Pro were also built to help cut down on waste – using 20 percent environmentally conscious Post-Consumer Materials (PCM).
Offered in three stunning colours to match your Galaxy S21 5G: an incredible Phantom Violet, and timeless Phantom Black and Phantom Silver, the Galaxy Buds Pro are available online on Samsung.com/ca, at Samsung Experience Stores, as well as across major retails partners in Canada starting today, for $264.99 (our regular price).
