I would ditch my Galaxy Buds for the Galaxy Studio headphones in a minute if they had these features

Samsung is rumored to be developing its first premium over-ear headphones, dubbed the Galaxy Studio, based on leaked app assets. These headphones would feature dedicated noise controls, head tracking, and USB connection behavior, following Samsung's acquisition of Harman, AKG, and JBL. The Galaxy Buds, Samsung's current offerings, can automatically switch between devices but require modern software and a Samsung account.

The Galaxy Studio would ideally offer standard Bluetooth multipoint functionality, allowing for simultaneous connections to multiple devices without the need for pairing screens. Battery life is a significant concern, with the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro lasting only six hours with active noise cancellation. In contrast, high-end competitors like Sennheiser, Sony, and Bose offer much longer battery life, making the Galaxy Studio's battery performance a key factor.

Samsung's color customization options for the Galaxy Studio could also appeal to users, while magnetic ear pads would simplify maintenance and allow for personalization. A wired USB-C audio connection would preserve music quality, as compressed Bluetooth connections limit sound fidelity. Despite the potential appeal of the Galaxy Studio, the reporter would still rely on their Galaxy Buds 4 Pro for workouts and portability, balancing the desire for premium headphones with practical considerations.
