Samsung appears to be preparing a major expansion of its wireless audio portfolio. Hot on the heels of leaked renders showing off the unique clip-on Galaxy Buds On and Samsung’s Galaxy headphones, a fresh report reveals more details about Samsung’s fitness-oriented pair of earbuds, previously known as the Galaxy Buds Canal 5, sporting an ear-hook design.
According to a report by SammyGuru, references to an unreleased audio wearable with the model number “SM-R545” and the internal codename “T1” were found in an unspecified APK file. Unlike the stem-style look of recent Galaxy Buds or open-ear cuff alternatives, line renders for the T1 show a design that apparently wraps around the ear to deliver a locked-in fit tailored specifically for workouts and running.
