If you haven’t been living under a rock, by now you must know that Samsung’s S21 series is now available for pre-booking in Nepal. Alongside the three new S series phones, Samsung also unveiled its Galaxy Buds Pro truly wireless earphones in Nepal, which now replaces the Galaxy Buds+, albeit similar design.
Even though the earphone resembles the Galaxy Buds+ design, Samsung says it offers a better fit and ergonomics with longer listening times. It also brings superior audio quality and active noise canceling much like the Buds Live.
The Galaxy Buds Pro has 11mm woofers for deeper sound and 6.5mm tweeters for better trebles. Samsung claims that the Buds Pro’s setup pretty much refines your audio listening experience, making it a better alternative than the already acclaimed Galaxy Buds+.
Likewise, the Buds Pro has much more to offer, including a significant improvement in call quality. Samsung has put a dedicated Voice Pickup Unit (VPU) that sharpens your voice via three microphones by suppressing the background noise.
Out of three, one of those microphones has a high signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) that assists with the ambient sounds. On top of that, the Galaxy Buds Pro also brings Samsung’s new Wind Shield technology to prevent the wind from interfering your calls while you’re outside or riding your bike.
The Buds Pro has active noise canceling as well, which blocks 99% ambient sound as per Samsung. The ANC settings are well-detailed, allowing you to choose the level of ANC, or if you want to hear what’s happening around you, you can increase your surrounding sound by more than 20 dB. The earphones, though, are pretty capable of doing that by themselves, if in case you don’t want to fiddle with settings. The microphones are active almost every time hearing your voice, so whenever you speak, it brings ambient sounds in.
There’s another handy feature known as Auto Switch which allows you to connect two Samsung devices at the same time. This means the earbuds can automatically switch between your multimedia content and phone calls by pausing the former so that you can answer your call. And as soon as you are done with your call, the earbuds will play the content without any hassle enhancing your experience.
