Wireless charging

The charging case has a built-in wireless charging coil. You can charge the battery by using a 
wireless charger or another device that functions as a wireless charger.

Charging the battery with a wireless charger

Open the charging case.

Check the direction of each earbud and correctly insert them into their corresponding 
slots in the charging case.

Close the charging case.

Place the centre of the charging case’s back on the centre of the wireless charger.

After fully charging, disconnect the charging case from the wireless charger.

Precautions for wireless charging

Do not place the charging case on the wireless charger when conductive materials, 
such as metal objects and magnets, are placed between the charging case and the 
wireless charger.
The Galaxy Buds+ may not charge properly or may overheat, or the charging case 
may be damaged.

Use Samsung-approved wireless chargers. If you use other wireless chargers, the 
battery may not charge properly.
