Despite rising component costs, Samsung may keep prices steady for its upcoming devices. A recent leak suggests that the Galaxy S26 series could launch at the same price as last year’s models, with the Ultra variant even tipped to receive a potential price drop. Adding to the good news, another leak indicates Samsung’s next-generation wireless earbuds may also avoid a price hike.

According to Dealabs, the Galaxy Buds 4 could launch at €179 in Europe, while the more premium Galaxy Buds 4 Pro are expected to cost around €249. That matches the launch price of the Galaxy Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro, respectively, signaling that Samsung is deliberately keeping its premium earbuds affordable despite inflationary pressures seen in other product categories.

The report also notes that buyers in select regions may get extra perks, such as a free 25W wireless charger with purchases of either Buds 4 models during pre-orders or early sales. It further reveals that the Galaxy Buds 4 and Buds 4 Pro will be offered in black and white colorways, though Samsung may also offer an Apricot finish exclusive to the Pro model.

Both earbuds are expected to bring some notable upgrades, with recent leaks pointing to a bigger 57mAh battery on the Buds 4 Pro, a speaker built into the charging case, and support for head gestures. The new Galaxy Buds models could arrive alongside the Galaxy S26 series next month, so fans looking for a new pair of flagship earbuds may not have to wait long for official details.
