The Galaxy Buds Pro, which was launched in early 2021, was Samsung's first pair of truly wireless earphones featuring ANC (Active Noise Cancellation). Today, Samsung launched its successor, the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro.
The new earbuds come with a few improvements over their predecessors. But do they support 360 Audio like the Galaxy Buds Pro?
Do Galaxy Buds 2 Pro support 360 Audio?
Yes, the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro support the 360 Audio feature, similar to last year's Galaxy Buds Pro. And it works with any Galaxy smartphone or tablet running One UI 3.1 (or later). In fact, the new earphones support 360 Audio with Direct Multi-Channel. This new feature only works when the earbuds are used with Galaxy devices running Android 12-based One UI 4.1.1 (or newer).
Combined with a dual-driver setup (woofer + tweeter), a new version of Bluetooth (5.3), and Samsung's new Seamless Codec HiFi, the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are claimed to offer excellent audio quality. They are a clear upgrade over the Galaxy Buds 2 as well, which also feature ANC.
These earbuds will take on other high-end wireless earbuds like the Apple AirPods Pro, Google Pixel Buds Pro, and the Sony WF-1000XM4.
