Samsung is introducing a new feature for its Galaxy Buds2 Pro that will allow users to adjust the amount and quality of ambient sound they want to hear while wearing the earbuds. The enhanced ambient sound mode will add two additional levels of passthrough amplification on top of the three that were already present, as well as an option to customize the ambient sound tone range from soft to clear across five stages. Users will also be able to control the volume of each earbud independently and adapt the ambient sound to their ears for more clarity.
The Galaxy Buds2 Pro are Samsung’s flagship wireless earbuds that offer active noise cancellation, wireless charging, and a sleek design. They have a battery life of up to eight hours with ANC on and up to 28 hours with the charging case. They also support Bluetooth 5.2, touch controls, and voice assistants. The Galaxy Buds2 Pro come in four colors: black, white, purple, and green.
