Outdoor runners face the same dilemma: how many technological devices should they carry in order to achieve the perfect run? Most runners will take one or two smart-devices and a pair of ear buds, in order to stay connected and listen to some music.
What if there was a way to improve your run while carrying less?
The Galaxy Link is a smart strap that enables the Galaxy Buds to be worn comfortably on the user’s wrist. Runners can now enjoy a tactile music experience without the need to carry other devices. The Galaxy Link is designed to be fuss-free and easy to use. Simply grab the Galaxy Buds, pop it into the strap and you are ready to go.
Made for runners.
Runners face the same dilemma: how many technological devices should they carry in order to achieve the perfect run? The Galaxy Link is designed for outdoor runners, enabling the user to enjoy music that complements the run and without the inconvenience of having to carry several devices.
While carrying the Galaxy Link, runners can enjoy their music independently on the Galaxy buds, as the strap serves as a music storage module. It connects with other Galaxy devices to transfer music via the Cradle Manager interface. The Galaxy Link also complements and improves the run by translating the user’s music into rhythmic vibrations. The strap blends in perfectly with the sleek and slim design of the Galaxy buds.
Finally, the Galaxy bud’s long lasting battery combined with the Galaxy Link complement each other perfectly to provide the user with a complete sense of freedom and independence. Removing all distractions, this combination allows the user to disconnect and solely focus on their run. 
How Galaxy Link Works
SEAMLESS CHARGING EXPERIENCE
The charging experience remains effortless as the Galaxy Buds can be charged wirelessly even with the Galaxy Link on. The small aperture within the strap informs the user when the Galaxy Buds are fully charged. The wireless charging coil draws power from the Galaxy Buds and holds the charge in the capacitor. This enables the Galaxy Link to connect and store music via Bluetooth. It also powers the coin vibrators which pulsates to the rhythm of the music.
The casing houses a wireless charging coil, a capacitor, a bluetooth and storage module, and a coin vibrator that delivers the synchronised music beat vibrations. 
Tactile Music Experience & Comfort.
RUN TO THE BEAT
Synchronise and upload your music to your Galaxy Link via bluetooth and enjoy music independently on the Galaxy Buds.
The Galaxy Link pulsates to the rhythm of the music, offering tangible feedback that helps runners pace their run. The soft ribbing on the underside of the strap provides ventilation for the wrist, ensuring user comfort, and also doubles as a locking mechanism to secure itself in place.
BREATHABILITY & VIBRATIONS
The ridged design design provides ventilation for the wrist as well as a securing mechanism. The Galaxy Link also helps pace the run through tactile vibrations that match the beat of the music.
