If you’re a fan of Adidas sneakers and happen to live in South Korea, Samsung has a special edition set of Galaxy Buds Pro you’ll want to grab this week.
As Sammobile reports, Samsung has collaborated with Adidas to create the Galaxy Buds Pro Adidas Originals Special Pack, which will cost $249 and be available to buy on April 7 at 7:30pm in South Korea. The standard Galaxy Buds Pro only cost $199, but in return for the extra $50, Samsung is offering Adidas branding on a special Adidas Originals snapback case and a special coupon for purchasing Adidas Stan Smith sneakers.
It doesn’t end there, though. When you pair these Special Pack Buds with a Galaxy smartphone, a custom Adidas Original theme is unlocked. You gain access to a custom lock screen, icons, call screen, and messages screen. One of the quick access icons will also point to the Adidas online store.
Samsung is keen to highlight the use of recycled materials in this Special Pack offering. The Buds are manufactured using 20% Post-Consumer Materials (PCM), and the snapback case is made using recycled plastic. “We are planning this special pack for consumers seeking value consumption, especially MZ generations who are interested in sustainable products and fashions, and we will continue to strengthen Galaxy’s unique eco-friendly ecosystem through meaningful collaboration with various brands in the future,” explained a Samsung Electronics official.
When PCMag reviewed the Galaxy Buds Pro we found them to be wireless earbuds with an attractive, comfortable design that are fully waterproof and offer strong audio performance. The active noise cancellation is only average, though, and some features are only available to Android and Galaxy phone owners.
