The Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro feature a redesigned two-way speaker system with a wider woofer. The company says the driver has almost 20 per cent more vibration area than before, which should help deliver deeper bass. There’s also improved active noise cancellation that adapts in real time, depending on how the earbuds sit in your ears.Like Apple’s AirPods Pro, these buds now feature head gesture controls, meaning you can nod to answer calls or shake your head to reject them. Call quality should be massively improved, too. The Galaxy Buds 4 Pro feature upgraded microphones with what Samsung calls “super clear call” technology. You’ll also be able to get to your Galaxy Buds settings more quickly, just by swiping down from the top. They come in black and white, and usually cost £219. However, for a limited time, you can save £50 on the buds at Currys by using the code below at checkout, bringing them down to just £169.
