Eagle-eyed visitors to Argentinian website have spotted something a little unexpected — a product page for new Galaxy Buds FE earbuds, along with images of a smartphone and Galaxy Tab S9 FE tablet. That’s because the company leaked its latest Fan Edition devices, as noted by SamMobile. One of the smartphone images includes the date October 4 on the device, which could be a nod toward the announcement or a release date.
The company hasn’t let slip any specs for the phone and tablet as yet. However, the Galaxy S23 FE and Galaxy Tab S9 FE were reportedly mentioned by name on the page. This is about as close as Samsung can get to a formal announcement without a press release or an Unpacked.
The product page (which Samsung has taken down) did about the Galaxy Buds FE, Samsung’s first Fan Edition earbuds. They’re slated to have a single 12mm driver, three microphones in each earbud to bolster the active noise cancellation function and a three-way speaker.
Samsung’s Fan Edition devices have proven popular over the years. They tend to pack in solid features for a more reasonable price than the company’s flagship models. It’s safe to imagine that quite a few people will be looking forward to snapping up this year’s FE devices.
While the leak appears to have been an error, we can’t count out the possibility that Samsung deliberately showed off the latest FE devices before an official announcement. Major hardware companies are all jostling for your attention around this time of year. Just before Apple revealed the iPhone 15 lineup last week, Google dropped some teasers for its and devices — Google’s Pixel event isn’t until October. So, Samsung may have been looking for headlines with a purposeful leak here (in which case, it evidently worked).
The more likely scenario is that it’s another unintentional slip up for the company. It’s probably not quite as bad or as damaging as this week’s , but you’d think Samsung would know better by now in any case.
