Samsung has filed a trademark awarding for 'Samsung Buds' at the European Union Intellectual Property Part (EUIPO) final calendar week. Unfortunately, nosotros don't have any credible reports or rumors surrounding this name and so far, and all that we have are some calculated guesses.

Beginning with the trademark itself, Samsung Buds sounds like a possible proper name for earphones if we go by the current trend in the manufacture. Whether that ways Samsung is planning to launch a new earphones lineup under this name is currently unknown. The company already makes wireless earbuds under the Gear Icon branding. Nosotros wonder if this trademark has anything to do with renaming them for simplicity.

What are Samsung Buds?

Samsung ships a pair of premium AKG earphones with all its flagship smartphones. While AKG might accept a lot of make value among audiophiles, it doesn't savour the same level of popularity among other segments. Rebranding these earphones as Samsung Buds makes sense from a consistency perspective, but we are not certain if that is the reason behind this trademark.

Pixel Buds from Google comes to mind immediately when reading about Samsung Buds. Google launched Pixel Buds concluding yr with Google Assistant born. Is Samsung planning to launch a like production powered by Bixby? Again, nosotros don't know for certain, just it'due south a possibility given the visitor's efforts to put Bixby everywhere.

While all this speculation may audio exciting, it is worth remembering that Samsung, like many other companies, trademarks many names which may never turn into existent products. Nosotros have to wait and encounter if and when Samsung volition bring these 'Samsung Buds' to the market.
