Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro Power off Feature

S22 Ultra User · ‎15-07-2022

Hi,

I am making this post as a suggestion to Samsung to add the functionality for the Galaxy Buds Pro and other models to power off after they are inactive for ten minutes.

I have used cheaper Bluetooth buds which have power-off functionality and they switch off after 10 minutes of inactivity.

Considering it would be a software-induced functionality and it can be done. As of right now they do not power off and go on standby and continue to drain power even when not in use.

There are a few youtube videos showing how to power these off but they stand incorrect and not true as Galaxy buds pro cannot be turned off. When they are in the case they are charging and when they are out they are draining the power. If they could power off after a set minute of activity then practically they could last even longer. I can understand that for pairing they may have to go back in the case but this is a small compromise to conserve battery drainage.

Please share your thoughts, thank you

Good point, i totally agree with your suggestion.

Just put them in the case problem solved, I get what your saying but if I'm not using them no matter for how long I put them in the case rather than them picking up all sorts of stuff where you put them down then putting them back in your ears.

Great suggestion, as a few times I have not taken my case, decided to take off the buds only for them to remain on connected to my mobile

That is a much needed feature. I come from Jaybird Vista (after the Vista 2 incredible fiasco) and this is a huge loss feature wise.

You're missing the point @StuartR. Of course you can put them back in the case! This feature is very much needed though in those scenarios where that is basically, not an option. Good examples include sleeping and falling asleep.

I think a software update might just be what's required to initiate this feature. Some on the cheapest earbuds have it so there is no reason why Samsung couldn't implement it. Premium product should have premium functionality.

I agree with this 100% they are the most expensive buds I've purchased and the only 1s that do have physical power off function or a time out power off
