Get ready to ditch those old earbuds, Samsung fans! The Galaxy Buds 4 are on their way, and a sneaky new icon leak hints at a major design overhaul. Let’s dive in!
You might remember that the Galaxy Buds 3 took their sweet time to arrive, popping up in 2024, three years after their predecessor. But it seems Samsung is eager to keep the momentum going with the Galaxy Buds 4, and we might not have to wait as long this time.
Now, this leak is a bit unusual. Instead of a prototype pic or a rogue render, we’ve got an icon. Android Authority spotted it in a leaked build of One UI 8.5, and it’s a game-changer. The current Galaxy Buds 3 icon is pretty familiar, with a slight AirPods Pro vibe. But the new Galaxy Buds 4 icon? It’s bolder, with a smaller, more rounded ear tip and a different stem shape. The ends are rounded instead of triangular, and the earbuds’ body seems to have new proportions.

Now, we know what you’re thinking: “Isn’t reading tea leaves a bit more reliable than this?” Well, Samsung’s not going to mess around with an icon if they’re not planning a hardware redesign. They’d just swap the number 3 for a 4 and call it a day. So, this leak does suggest that a redesign is in the works.
And here’s the cherry on top: recent leaks have also hinted at Galaxy Buds 4 Pro parts. It’s only a matter of time before more concrete info starts spilling out!
