Galaxy Studio headphones pass South Korea RRA cert

The Samsung model SM-U700 wireless over-ear headphones received certification from South Korea's National Radio Research Agency (RRA) on October 23, 2026.

That RRA listing, first reported this week, aligns with recent leaks that identify the SM-U700 as the likely Galaxy Studio and suggest the product is moving closer to an official launch. Reports indicate Samsung's return to over-ear headphones follows months of development reports and comes more than a decade after the company last released a wireless over-ear pair.

Expected connectivity and features

Sources say the headphones may support a newer version of Bluetooth, such as Bluetooth 6.1, which is already available on the Galaxy Buds 4 series. Based on the Studio branding, reports also expect support for high-quality audio codecs including AAC, LC3, and SSC UHQ. The SM-U700 is reported to include Buds Auto Switch and a USB Type-C port for charging and wired audio, though those features are listed as expectations rather than confirmed specifications.

Competing with premium models from Apple, Bose, Sennheiser, and Sony, the forthcoming Samsung headphones are also expected to offer Active Noise Cancellation and multi-day battery life, according to the same set of reports. Observers note the Galaxy Studio could be positioned against products such as Apple AirPods Max 2 and Sony WH-1000XM6 if Samsung implements those capabilities.
