Samsung trademarks “Samsung Buds” as possible replacement for Gear Icon


At its 2018 Galaxy unpacked event held a while ago in the NewYork city, Samsung electronics officially bided goodbye to the Galaxy Gear Smartwatch brand in favor of a new moniker – the Samsung Galaxy watch. The Samsung Galaxy watch obviously sounds better as it matches every Samsung Galaxy smartphones brand. Now, a recent trademark filing submitted by Samsung suggests the company may be towing the same path for its earphone brand.

While the company already makes wireless earbuds under the Gear Icon branding, the company has now filed for a trademark application for ‘Samsung Buds’ at the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) last week.

Although the listing gives no detail of what the name might be used for, our guess is that it might be targeted at similar sccessoris from competitiors like the Pixel Buds from Google, OnePlus bullet wireless andeven the Apple earpod. Its very likely Samsung be be ditching its Gear icon branding or its AKG earphone branding in favor of a more simplistic Samsung buds.
