The main new feature will be quickly noticed by those with the Galaxy Wearable app: Two additional Ambient Sound modes for a total of five levels of amplification to be aware of the sounds around the user. A couple of trials commissioned by Samsung revealed that users with mild to moderate hearing loss experienced improved speech perception and better communication in quiet places.
Additionally, Samsung is also allowing users to adjust the sound volume separately between the left and right earbuds, and also customize the tone range in the Ambient sound mode in five steps between soft to clear.
According to Samsung, the new features will be coming to the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro “via software updates in the coming weeks”.
