A renowned leaker has revealed Samsung's next-generation earbuds in black and white colour options. Arriving on July 10 as the Galaxy Buds3 and Galaxy Buds3 Pro, Samsung may find it tricky to deny that it borrowed heavily from Apple with its recent AirPods and AirPods Pro releases.

Evan Blass has shared various images for the successors to the ageing Galaxy Buds2 Pro (curr. $159.99 on Amazon). For context, this is not the first time that the Galaxy Buds3 or Galaxy Buds3 Pro have been pictured. However, Blass' leak is arguably the most significant so far.

For example, Blass has confirmed that Samsung will release the Galaxy Buds3 series in black and white colours, which was suggested by previous leaks. Additionally, the new images confirm that the Galaxy Buds3 and Galaxy Buds3 Pro will look more like recent Apple's AirPods earbuds than their direct predecessors, particularly in their white colourway. Moreover, the pair's charging case has been shown again, in which three charging LEDs and a transparent top can be seen.

Furthermore, Blass' leak highlights that the charging case has a bottom-mounted USB Type-C charging port, which is joined by a small button that we imagine will handle device pairing. Based on recent leaks, the Galaxy Buds3 Pro could cost over a third more than its direct predecessor. Samsung will present the Galaxy Buds3 and Galaxy Buds3 Pro on July 10 at its next Galaxy Unpacked alongside the following other new devices:
