Samsung Galaxy Buds Core Rumored to Feature Bigger Battery Compared to Galaxy Buds FE

Samsung is gearing up to launch the Galaxy Buds Core as the next iteration following the Galaxy Buds FE, which debuted in October 2023 across select markets. Recently, the Galaxy Buds Core appeared on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) website, signaling an imminent launch in India. Additionally, support pages for the earbuds have gone live in several regions, hinting that the official announcement is not far off. New leaks have also revealed that the Galaxy Buds Core and their charging case might feature larger batteries compared to their predecessors.

According to a tip shared by X user Anthony (@TheGalox_), the Galaxy Buds Core could house a 500mAh battery in the charging case, while each earbud might come equipped with a 100mAh cell. This would be a significant upgrade from the Galaxy Buds FE, which contained 60mAh batteries in each earbud and a 479mAh battery in the charging case. This increase in battery capacity suggests a notable improvement in playback and usage times.

The Galaxy Buds FE currently offer a total battery life of up to 21 hours, including charging case usage, with active noise cancellation (ANC) enabled lasting for up to 13 hours. With the larger batteries rumored for the Galaxy Buds Core, users can likely expect longer listening sessions, potentially making these earbuds more appealing for extended use. This could especially benefit those who prioritize battery life alongside premium sound quality and features.

Reports also suggest that the Galaxy Buds Core support pages have already appeared in multiple countries, including India, the UAE, Russia, and Turkey, indicating a global rollout is planned. Industry insiders anticipate that Samsung will unveil these earbuds during the Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled for July, alongside the Galaxy Z Flip FE foldable phone. This launch could mark a strong push by Samsung into the mid-range TWS segment with improved battery life and advanced features.
