If Samsung was planning to go easy on your wallet, don't look at this latest Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 rumor
Sources speaking to MySmartPrice have provided alleged price, size and color details for two versions of Samsung's upcoming smartwatch If these details turn out to be accurate, it appears that Samsung is planning a significant price increase for the next generation
According to MSP sources, the new Galaxy Watch will come in 40mm and 44mm versions, a size smaller than the 41mm and 45mm of the current Galaxy Watch 3 The 40mm size will cost between 350 and 380 euros, while the 44mm size will cost between 370 and They will cost 400 euros This translates to $414 to $450 and $438 to $473, respectively, a few dollars more than the $400 and $450 starting prices of the Galaxy Watch 3
However, direct conversions are not always accurate The base price for the Galaxy Watch 3 in Europe is €369 This is right in the middle of the range indicated by the supposed MSP insider, so there probably won't be a noticeable price increase
Additionally, sources indicate that the available colors will be black, silver, green, and gold, two more colors than the Galaxy Watch 3's bronze and silver options
In addition, the MSP source also talks about the Galaxy Watch 4 Classic This model will be slightly larger in either 42mm or 46mm and correspondingly more expensive than the basic Watch 4, ranging from €470 to €500 ($556 to $592) and €500 to €530 ($592 to $627), respectively The two models will be available in either black or silver, colors we had already heard about in previous rumors
The rumors so far are not clear how the Galaxy Watch 4, Galaxy Watch 4 Classic, and Galaxy Watch Active 4 will be combined Samsung currently sells a premium Galaxy Watch 3 model and a sporty Galaxy Watch Active 2 model One could think that the classic model might be a new title for the basic Galaxy Watch, but MSP sources seem to assure us that these are not the same thing and that the classic model will be much more expensive than what has been offered so far
To clarify this, we will have to wait for more rumors or an official Samsung announcement (said to be in July or August)
The last rumor provided by sources concerns the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2, a sequel to Samsung's basic Galaxy Buds Priced between 180 and 200 euros ($213 to $236), it is considerably higher than the Galaxy Buds Plus' current asking price of $149 In fact, given that the Galaxy Buds Pro is priced at $199, these conversions to US dollars do not add up
The Galaxy Buds 2 also comes in black, white, violet, and green with a glossy finish The source claims that Samsung is adding a built-in microphone for better noise reduction, but not active noise cancellation (ANC) like the more expensive Galaxy Buds Live and Galaxy Buds Pro In other words, the new Galaxy Buds will compete with the basic AirPods, but assuming the price is accurate, they will be much more expensive
