Galaxy SmartTag 3 hits Samsung online store as single tracker or four-pack

Samsung launched two major products in the United States on November 6, 2026, according to Android Central. The release includes the next-generation Galaxy SmartTag 3 tracker and the Galaxy Buds On open-ear wireless earbuds. Samsung's online store and retailers are now offering both devices. Android Central reported that the SmartTag 3 features a "slimmer design" and long-range tracking capabilities. Samsung equipped the tracker with new features called Place Notification and Movement Detection Alert. In a joint blog post, Samsung stated that Place Notification alerts users if "a tagged item moves in or out of a predefined area that they set." The Movement Detection Alert informs users if their tagged item is moving. These features work with the SmartTag 3's Compass View, which Samsung says functions up to 60 meters away to provide "distance and directional guidance." Location History also helps users keep tabs on where their tags have been. Cross-OS support and the Galaxy Find Network allow the SmartTag 3 to connect to a range of devices. In the U.S., the SmartTag 3 is available for $29.99 for a single tracker or $99 for a four-pack, as reported by 9to5Google and Android Central. Samsung also officially launched the Galaxy Buds On in the U.S. for $229.99, according to SamMobile, while Android Central listed the price as $229 at Samsung's storefront and retailers. Samsung initially announced the earbuds late in October, marking the company's entry into a new market with clip-on, open-ear buds. Each earbud weighs 6.65 grams and wraps around the user's ear. Samsung stated it used "over 119 million ear data points" to refine the fit. SamMobile and Android Central noted that the earbuds feature a TwinBoost Speaker system, which provides automatic volume adjustment to match surroundings. Because they are open-ear buds, they include Audio Leakage Reduction technology to keep audio private. The earbuds support Google's Gemini Live with voice commands, and Bixby according to SamMobile. Users can also utilize head gestures to answer calls, swipe through notifications, and silence alarms. SamMobile reported that the Galaxy Buds On feature 11.3mm TwinBoost speakers, Bluetooth 6.2, and support for AAC, SBC, SSC, and SSC UHQ codecs. Each earbud includes three microphones and a Voice Pickup Unit that use Super Wideband technology for improved voice calls. The earbuds support quick voice note recordings and carry an IP54 rating for dust and water resistance. Their charging case supports wireless charging and includes a USB Type-C port. On a single charge, the earbuds last up to 9.5 hours for music playback and up to 5.5 hours for voice calls, with a total of 38 hours of music playback when combined with the charging case. Only customers in South Korea and the U.S. can get the Galaxy Buds On this year. SamMobile reported that sources indicate the earbuds will launch in Europe during the third week of January 2027, though Samsung stated they would arrive in Europe in early 2027.
