• An APK teardown of the Samsung Members app has revealed pinch sensors for the Galaxy Buds 3 series.
• This suggests that the new earbuds could offer pinch and squeeze gestures in lieu of touch controls.
• Apple, Nothing, Xiaomi, and several other earbud brands offer pinch functionality today.

Weve seen several Galaxy Buds 3 leaks ahead of the Unpacked event next month, suggesting Samsung could opt for a more conventional earbud design with a stem. Now, our APK teardown has revealed the design once again along with the presence of pinch sensors.

Android Authority, in partnership with AssembleDebug, discovered references to pinch sensors on the Galaxy Buds 3 series. The references were discovered in version 5.0.00.11 of the Samsung Members app and also include images showing the buds and gestures. Its unclear if the sensor and gestures will be available on both the Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro or just one model. Check out the images and references below.
