These Starbucks Galaxy Buds cases are some of the cutest I’ve ever seen

By Cristina Alexander June 27, 2022

Starbucks Korea is collaborating with Samsung to serve up a new line of limited-edition cases for the Samsung Galaxy S22 series and Galaxy Buds. Both companies announced the collaboration on Monday, and all of the Starbucks x Samsung Galaxy cases are some of the cutest pieces of Starbucks merchandise that I wish were being sold in the U.S.

The highlights from the Starbucks x Samsung lineup are the wireless earbud cases for Galaxy Buds 2, Buds Live, and Buds Pro. One of the cases has the unique design of a Starbucks mug with latte art on the lid, which is perfect for fans who love having the most beautiful artwork swirling around in their coffee. The other earbud case is dark green with the classic Starbucks logo embroidered on it. It’s not quite as unique, but it still looks fantastic.

A couple of the phone cases for the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra are designed after the brand’s official silicone case with strap — with a whimsical Starbucks twist. The first case is dark green with a strap resembling a Starbucks receipt, and the other is mint green and has a striped strap bearing the Bearista logo. The Samsung Galaxy S22 case is a light green cloth case with the Starbucks logo embroidered on it, while the Samsung Galaxy S22+ case is dark green and bearing the motivational tagline “Count Stars in your Galaxy,” with a star symbol replacing the “a” to represent the Stars you receive with every purchase as part of the Starbucks Rewards program.

The Starbucks x Samsung Galaxy cases are made with eco-friendly materials, and they will go on sale on the Naver Starbucks website on Tuesday. They are in limited supply, so you might want to act fast if you want to buy any or all of them to show off your love for Starbucks and their latte art.

Don’t buy a Galaxy S24 Ultra or iPhone 15 Pro Max. Do this instead

“Do I need all that?” That’s the question on the mind of shoppers before they splurge a now-standard $1,000 asking price for a top-tier phone in 2024. Ideally, that dilemma should be there. The likes of Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro Max have won laurels for a handful of standout features they offer. But you might not need those standout features at all.

I’ve been on that road, and more frequently than I have the temerity to admit. For some reason, regret comes as part of the $1,200 flagship parcel. That's unless your phone is a part of your creative or work process, or you just don’t care and only want the latest and greatest for the vanity of it. A segment like that certainly exists, but that affluent user base doesn’t dictate the journey of a product.

I’m a lifelong iPhone user. Here’s what I think about the Samsung Galaxy S24

Samsung and Apple typically release new smartphones at different times of the year. Samsung usually does it early in the year, while Apple waits until the fall ahead of the holiday shopping season. As always, Apple tends to release new iPhones that outdo the ones Samsung released earlier, and then when the calendar changes, Samsung comes back with something to better compete with Apple, and so forth.

Samsung has recently announced its Galaxy S24 series, which has sparked the curiosity of iPhone owners like myself. Many of us are currently exploring the features of these phones and seeing which ones aren't available on our iPhones, myself included. Some are entirely new, while others have been introduced on previous Samsung Galaxy S models. Although many seem promising, some may not be as appealing to iPhone users. Here are a few of the Galaxy S24 features I like — and a few I don't.

I have the Samsung Galaxy S24. Here are 3 things I already like

Samsung unveiled its next flagship smartphone line, the Galaxy S24, during the January Galaxy Unpacked event. This new lineup includes the base model S24, the larger S24 Plus, and the top-tier S24 Ultra. It’s one of the first big smartphone releases to kick things off for the new year.

I got my hands on the base Galaxy S24 and have been spending some time with it. Here are my (very positive) first impressions of the device so far.
The size is very similar to the S23
