Tech enthusiasts are buzzing as leaked details about Samsung’s next affordable earbuds surface. The Galaxy Buds 3 FE—successor to 2023’s popular Galaxy Buds FE—promises premium features without the premium price tag. With design renders and specifications now circulating, here’s what you need to know about Samsung’s upcoming audio contender.
Design Evolution & Key Features
According to exclusive renders shared by tipster Evan Blass (August 2025), the Buds 3 FE adopt a stem-style design similar to Apple’s AirPods—a first for Samsung’s FE lineup. The matte-finish charging case appears more compact than previous models, while the earbuds feature dual microphones for improved call clarity.
Industry insiders at SamMobile confirm Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) will return alongside Ambient Sound mode—critical features retained from the Galaxy Buds FE. Battery life is projected at 6 hours per charge (21 hours with case), matching predecessors. New additions include:
- Bluetooth 5.4 for lower latency
- IP57 water/dust resistance (up from IPX2)
- 360 Audio for immersive soundscapes
Pricing & Availability
Pricing leaks from Indian retail sources (via 91Mobiles, August 2025) suggest the Buds 3 FE will launch at ₹7,999 ($99 USD)—positioning it aggressively against Google’s Pixel Buds A-Series. Three colorways are expected: Graphite, White, and a new Lavender option.
Samsung will likely unveil the earbuds at its August 2025 Unpacked event alongside the Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 6. Pre-orders may include early-bird discounts or bundled Galaxy Watch accessories, according to Korean forum Clien.net.
Competitive Landscape
The Buds 3 FE enters a crowded ₹5,000-₹10,000 segment dominated by:
- OnePlus Nord Buds 3 (₹5,999)
- Nothing Ear (a) (₹7,999)
- Google Pixel Buds A-Series (₹9,999)
Audio analysts at Counterpoint Research note Samsung’s strength lies in ecosystem integration: “Galaxy users get automatic pairing, EQ customization via Wearable app, and seamless device switching—advantages third-party brands can’t match.”
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 FE represents a strategic play for budget-conscious audiophiles, blending ANC, refined ergonomics, and Samsung’s ecosystem advantages at under ₹8,000. With leaks suggesting an August launch alongside Samsung’s foldables, these earbuds could dominate the mid-range market by holiday season. Watch for official announcements on Samsung Newsroom.
Must Know
Q: How do Galaxy Buds 3 FE differ from Galaxy Buds 3?
A: The FE (“Fan Edition”) model typically offers core flagship features (like ANC) in a more affordable package. Expect plastic instead of metal builds, slightly shorter battery life, and fewer advanced sensors compared to the premium Buds 3.
Q: Will they support wireless charging?
A: Yes. Leaked FCC documents confirm Qi-compatible wireless charging alongside USB-C support—unlike many competitors in this price range.
Q: Are they compatible with iPhones?
A: While optimized for Galaxy devices, they’ll function with any Bluetooth 5.0+ device. iPhone users lose access to Samsung’s Wearable app features like custom EQ or firmware updates.
Q: When will pre-orders start?
A: Industry sources point to August 11–15, 2025, coinciding with Samsung’s Unpacked event. Sign up for stock alerts via Samsung India’s newsletter.
