We’ve seen plenty of photos of Samsung’s new bean-shaped headphones, but an early update to Samsung’s Galaxy Buds companion app has confirmed almost every detail about the upcoming headphones, including the official name of Galaxy Buds Live and support for active noise cancellation.
The app also shows a short guide on how to use the uniquely shaped earbuds and shows that the earbuds will have touch controls (set to toggle active noise cancellation by default), which can also be disabled if you don’t like touch controls. The app shows a Find My Earbuds setting and equalizer options, standard features for headphones like this one.

The app marks the most official reveal to date for the Galaxy Buds Live, which has already appeared in a leaked marketing video showing the earphones in action, along with many images of the earphones and their charging case. The only real details missing are how much the Galaxy Buds Live will cost and when you will be able to buy them.
Samsung is expected to announce the Galaxy Buds Live at its next Unpacked event on August 5 at 10 a.m. ET, where the company is also expected to announce the Galaxy Note 20 line (and possibly even a new Galaxy Fold model).
