Samsung released its latest earbud lineup during the Samsung Unpacked 2026 event in January, and now, Woot is offering an excellent deal for the flagship Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. If you don't mind the international version—which means you'd miss out on the standard manufacturer’s warranty (but still get Woot's 90-day limited guarantee)—you can get the Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro for $161.99 (originally $249.99). That's nearly $90 in savings for an otherwise identical new pair, and cheaper than the refurbished version or the more budget Galaxy Buds 4.
Samsung wants to compete with Apple with a similar design, features, and even price point. The Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 are strikingly similar to the Apple AirPods 4 in their design, with noise cancellation and the absence of silicone eartips that go inside your ears. They come with Hi-Res audio, IP54 for water resistance, a Live Translation feature similar to Apple's, a new design, improvements in call quality, and direct access to ask questions to AI and receive responses through the earbuds. The controls are swipe and pinch, and the charging case comes in black or white.
It's also easy to draw the similarities between the Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro and the Apple AirPods Pro 3. Apart from both being $249, the most obvious similarity is the in-ear silicone tip design that helps seal the noise and improve ANC. The Pros have all of the same features as the Buds 4, and are supposed to be more comfortable, have better ANC, which Samsung calls ANC 2.0; have a better water resistance with an IP57 rating, which handles immersion in water up to 1 meter; and perhaps more importantly, a two-way speaker (as opposed to a one-way on the Buds 4) that is meant to deliver better, high-fidelity sound, superior separation of frequencies, and reduced distortion. PCMag called these earbuds "excellent" in their review for their audio and integration with Samsung phones.
