The Galaxy Buds 2 were unveiled a few days ago, and they are already up for pre-order in various countries. While most pre-orders haven't reached the buyers yet, Samsung seems to have rolled out a software update to the Galaxy Buds 2 to add new features and improve their performance.

A new update with firmware version R177XXU0AUH2 is rolling out in South Korea right now. It adds the ability to activate the Ambient Sound mode during calls so that you can listen to things around you even during calls. After installing this update, ANC can be activated even when you're using just one earbud.

The update also adds Ambient Sound customization and the ability to double-tap the edge of the earbuds to turn the volume up or down. The changelog also mentions that the Galaxy Buds 2's stability will improve with this firmware update. This new update could roll out to more markets over the next few days.
