The name Galaxy Studio appeared on X on October 8, posted by tipster @evowizz, presented as the likely name for Samsung's next over-ear headphones.
If accurate, the leak indicates Samsung is preparing a return to the full-size headphone market and positions Galaxy Studio as a contender against Apple’s AirPods Max.
Leak details and history
The account that posted the name is not a leading leaker, but @evowizz previously correctly identified Samsung’s first clip-on earbuds as the Galaxy Buds On before their official announcement. Early signs of the over-ear project began surfacing in August 2026 in software code strings, internal codenames including Galaxy H1, and graphics found inside Samsung’s companion apps. Those clues pointed to a wireless over-ear design.
Samsung’s most recent mainstream over-ear models were the Level Over and Level On in 2015. If Galaxy Studio is real, it would mark the company’s first serious re-entry into the category since then.
Positioning and expected timing
Reports say Galaxy Studio is expected to sit at the top of Samsung’s Galaxy audio lineup, which so far has emphasized in-ear and open-ear Buds. The Studio name suggests the product will aim for higher-end sound and feature sets to compete with Apple’s AirPods Max, Sony’s WH-1000XM series, and Bose’s QuietComfort line.
Some outlets are floating an early 2027 debut, possibly alongside the Galaxy S27 series. Observers also expect tight integration with the Galaxy ecosystem, including seamless pairing with phones, tablets, and other Samsung devices.
If the leak holds up, Galaxy Studio would provide Samsung with a full-size wireless option for longer listening sessions and expand its audio lineup beyond earbuds.
