Upgraded Battery Capacity Revealed in Leaked Galaxy Buds 3 Specifications
The tech world is abuzz with news about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 FE, following reports of a substantial battery upgrade compared to its predecessor and even some pricier models.
According to recent findings, each Galaxy Buds 3 FE earbud boasts a battery capacity of 100mAh, totaling 200mAh for both. In comparison, the original Galaxy Buds FE had a 60mAh battery for each earbud, amounting to a total of 120mAh. The charging case for the Galaxy Buds 3 FE boasts a capacity of 900mAh, significantly higher than the 479mAh case of the original Buds FE [1][2][4][5].
This battery upgrade means the Galaxy Buds 3 FE offers a substantial increase in battery capacity for both the earbuds and charging case compared to the original Buds FE. Interestingly, the Buds 3 FE's battery capacity even surpasses that of Samsung's higher-end Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, which have 53mAh batteries per earbud and a 515mAh case. This suggests that the Buds 3 FE could deliver notably longer usage times despite being positioned as a Fan Edition and budget-friendly option [2].
In terms of connectivity, the Galaxy Buds 3 FE, like its predecessors, will use Bluetooth technology.
The discovery of the Galaxy Buds 3 FE was reported by The Tech Outlook and SamMobile, with the device appearing in FCC and SGS Fimko certification listings. The FCC listing provided more technical details about the device, while the SGS Fimko certification revealed the battery and charging upgrades [3][6][7].
Rumours suggest that the design of the Galaxy Buds 3 FE will be similar to the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, as reported in mid-July via a render. The Buds 3 FE are speculated to have a September launch, although nothing is set in stone just yet [8].
A report after Unpacked claimed that Samsung was gearing up to unveil its Galaxy Tab S11 series "shortly" after the event, and the Buds 3 FE were rumoured to be revealed around the same time [9].
For those looking to purchase earbuds, deals are available at Best Buy, Walmart, Amazon, Samsung, and Dell. However, the pricing for this year's Buds FE is still unknown, with the original model debuting at $99 in 2023. It remains to be seen whether the Buds 3 FE will maintain the affordability of its predecessor while offering improved battery life [10].
