Samsung's current Galaxy Buds lineup is showing its age, with the Buds 2 dating back to summer 2021 and the Buds 2 Pro released over a year and a half ago. However, innovation is underway. Towards the end of last year, it became known that Samsung was preparing the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. And now the story doesn't end there. Dutch publication GalaxyClub (via Android titles) reports that Samsung plans to launch a full series of Buds 3 later this year. This lineup will not only include a new Pro model, but also a classic Galaxy Buds 3. The Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro are identified by the model numbers SM-R530 and SM-R630, respectively.

Apparently, Samsung is developing firmware for both models. Recently, an online certification for the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro charging case battery was also revealed, although it did not disclose specific details about its capacity.

Reports last year suggested that the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro could pack some AI magic. Samsung seems to want to spread the AI ​​love across all of its products, not just sticking to smartphones. The scoop is that the Buds 3 Pro could tip AI for real-time translation services, providing on-the-fly translations of voices during calls. It's not yet clear whether the regular Galaxy Buds 3 will get in on the AI ​​action.

The exact release date of Samsung's new headphones remains shrouded in mystery. If we had to take an educated guess, they could debut alongside the upcoming foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, which are expected to be revealed in July or August this year.

Of course, there will be more details on the next generation of Buds in the coming months, so keep an eye out for updates!
