Samsung's upcoming wireless earbuds could feature a rather impressive battery life, according to specs submitted to the FCC, Droid Life reports.

Known by model number SM-R175, the Galaxy Buds 2 sport 150mAh batteries in each earpiece. The charging case, meanwhile, has a 600mAh battery. Both figures are striking considering the Galaxy Buds, which Samsung rolled several months ago, have 58mAh batteries in the earpieces and a 252mAh battery in the charging case for an estimated seven hours of playtime.

None of this is guaranteed, however. Droid Life notes the original Galaxy Buds shipped with smaller batteries than its FCC filing indicated, so the Galaxy Buds 2 might also arrive with less powerful batteries. If anything, the Galaxy Buds 2 should offer battery life at least matching its predecessor.

It's unclear what else Samsung will do with the Galaxy Buds 2. Sound quality on the Galaxy Buds beats competitors such as the AirPods Pro and the Echo Buds, but the latest model could widen the gap. Additionally, Samsung might tweak the design slightly to improve comfort. The FCC filing doesn't include actual images of the product.

The Galaxy Buds 2 are likely to be revealed in late February alongside the Galaxy S11 smartphone at MWC 2020. We'll be in Barcelona for all the news, so stay tuned for more.
