Samsung Galaxy Buds FE 2 reportedly in development

It’s been a couple of years since Samsung launched its Galaxy Buds FE. The earbuds, for those unfamiliar, are basically a more affordable variant of its main Galaxy Buds series. If you’re hoping to see a successor, we might not have to wait too long. GalaxyClub.nl reports that Samsung is already working on the Galaxy Buds FE 2.

Unfortunately, at the moment not much is known about the Galaxy Buds FE 2 as the publication did not share any specifics. However, we assume it will be a cheaper alternative to the Galaxy Buds 3 series, which are the latest true wireless earbuds from Samsung. There are going to be some differences, that’s for sure.

For example, with the Buds FE compared to the Galaxy Buds 2, Samsung opted to give the cheaper model an IPX2 rating versus the IPX4 rating on the Buds 2. This means that it won’t be as water-resistant. Also, the earbuds themselves are slightly heavier, so that’s something to take into consideration.

Battery life on the Buds FE was also slightly less than the Buds 2 by about 20 or so minutes. However, your mileage may vary depending on how you use it. In any case, if these are some of the compromises you’re willing to make for a cheaper pair of earbuds, then maybe it could be a good idea to wait for the Galaxy Buds FE 2.

In the meantime, the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE is available for purchase—it’s even at a 30% discount! Alternatively, if you’re willing to spend a bit more for better sound, battery life, and design, the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro is a good choice.
