As spotted by Twitter account SamCentralTech, and reported by The Verge, the initial "pick your device" screen of the app reveals the names and marketing images for a new Galaxy Watch Active, Galaxy Fit fitness trackers, and Galaxy Buds.
Galaxy Buds are the least known of the three products, serving as Samsung's latest AirPods competitor. They won't be Samsung's first pair of truly wireless earphones, succeeding the Gear IconX in 2016, but rumors suggest they'll be able to charge wirelessly on the back of the upcoming Galaxy S10.

Again, irrelevant product because people with AirPods want iOS.
Those also look stupid.

Airpods. Galaxy buds. Somewhere a marketing firm is laughing about how much money they were paid to come up with these terrible names.

I see they’ve sprung for the more traditional design. I know people seem divided on this, but I've always preferred the parallel-running AirPod handles to the standard black lump design.

The capability and popularity of the AirPods cannot be understated, but man do I still loathe that design. It looks like a couple of antennas sticking out of your ear.
What, and wires dangling out of your ears looks less weird, does it? :rolleyes:
AirPods look exactly the same as the wired earphones, but with the wires removed – wired versions only appear to look less weird because you're more used to them...
