Prestigious Global Recognition for the First Time in the Series' History

Samsung Electronics won the Expert Imaging and Sound Association (EISA) Award for 2026-2027 for its Galaxy Buds4 Pro, marking the first-ever win for the Galaxy Buds lineup. Judged by a panel of leading media figures and editors across more than 25 countries, this international accolade reflects Samsung's acoustic engineering philosophy and its dedication to delivering superior sound quality with a user-centric design.

EISA Experts Praise Acoustic Engineering and Call Quality

Ljubiša Miodragović, President of EISA, emphasized that the earbuds deliver pure audio detail thanks to a two-way speaker powered by dual amplifiers for low and high frequencies. He also highlighted the role of advanced Sensor Fusion technology—combining a dedicated Voice Pickup Unit (VPU) with noise reduction—to ensure crystal-clear calls even in noisy environments. Meanwhile, Han-gil Moon, Head of the Advanced Audio Lab at Samsung Electronics' MX Business, noted that this award caps off the team's relentless effort to remain true to original studio recordings while pushing premium listening standards.
