Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 surprise on the site of Amazon France: an oversight, a few hours before the launch, which reveals the price and some key features.
A few days, indeed a few hours that separate us from the Galaxy Unpacked, event during which Samsung will present the flagship products with which it intends to address the last part of the year. From the event on August 11 is expected to debut of the two folding Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3, the two smartwatch Galaxy Watch 4 and earphones Galaxy Buds 2.
And a few hours from the presentation, it is precisely on the latter, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2, which focus on rumors, but in reality we should speak of “oversights”. Yes, because on this occasion the “informants” have nothing to do with it, the information on the true wireless Korean earphones come to us from a publication error on Amazon France, where it appeared for a few hours the sales page of this model with lots of price and official photos. Now the page has been removed, but the information has already gone around the world and the “surprise” for fans of Samsung has been ruined permanently. The image you see in the opening, therefore, is the one published on the page then removed from Amazon France.
Galaxy Buds 2, the characteristics on Amazon
Thanks to the error on Amazon France, we know two days in advance the key features and price, of the new true wireless headphones of the Korean giant and we have some images.
Of course we take for good everything seen Amazon, but we also point out that the officiality (both for the design, features and price) you will have only at the end of the online event Samsung Galaxy Unpacked on August 11: there is a chance, albeit minimal, that some feature unveiled today on Amazon may not be confirmed.
So, for what we know at the moment, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 have dimensions of 50 x 50 x 28 mm and weight of 51 grams, active noise cancellation, which was almost obvious for high-end earbuds like the Korean ones, surround sound, compatibility with Android products from version 7.0 and with at least 1.5 GB of RAM, but also with iOS devices from version 10 onwards.
How not to mention the autonomy, one of the most heartfelt issues for those approaching a product of this type. For the Galaxy Buds 2 Samsung claims up to 29 hours of playback, but it is not yet known how many hours of playback come from charging in the case. Charging case that, according to this information, has support for wireless charging, which is quite convenient especially for those who move often.
Galaxy Buds 2, the price on Amazon
Finally the price: on the Amazon France page of the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 stood out a price of 149.99 euros, which is the current list price of the Galaxy Buds+.
In short, if the information published on Amazon France and then removed were to prove 100% correct, it would be one of the cases in which from one generation to the next the price does not jump up, which makes the presentation of the Galaxy Buds 2 even more interesting.
