Whether it’s listening to your favorite music, or simply tuning into—or tuning out—your surroundings, the Galaxy Buds2 Pro offer the ultimate in sound for everyone. As we recognize Global Accessibility Awareness Day, Samsung is committed to helping those who could benefit from sounds amplification and better enjoy the sounds of the world around them with the introduction of new enhanced Ambient Sound.

Making Technology More Accessible and Inclusive

Previously available at three levels of customization, the updated Ambient Sound feature—which gives users the ability to listen to and stay aware of their surroundings—now adds two additional levels, offering five levels of amplification¹ and providing the benefit of improved audio fidelity to even more users.

Bringing New Levels to Audio Customization
