We are eagerly anticipating the next generation of Google Pixel Buds Pro, which originally launched in May 2022. Recent leaks indicate that the new versions of these wireless earbuds are on the horizon, suggesting an imminent release.
The first notable leak comes from Android Headlines, revealing high-quality, unofficial renders of the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2. The images suggest that the new earbuds will come in a slightly bulkier case compared to the previous version, but with a similar overall design.
The earbuds are receiving a subtle redesign, featuring a new bulge near the ear tip, likely to enhance stabilization. This change harks back to the design of the original Pixel Buds, blending familiarity with improved functionality.
The upcoming Pixel Buds Pro 2 are set to debut in four colors: Charcoal, Porcelain, Aloe (which matches the Pixel 8a), and Hot Pink. Currently, the Pixel Buds Pro are available in Charcoal, Porcelain, Bay, Fog, Lemongrass, and Coral.
Price bumps
A recent leak from Dealabs, reported by 9to5Google, has potentially revealed the pricing for the upcoming Google Pixel Buds Pro 2. According to the leak, the earbuds are expected to be priced at $229 in the US, £219 in the UK, approximately AU$350 in Australia, and €249 in Europe.
The Pixel Buds Pro initially launched at $199 / £179 / AU$299, though they have since been available at discounted prices. The upcoming earbuds are expected to be slightly more expensive than their predecessors.
Recent leaks have revealed the design of the Pixel Buds Pro 2 and their case, adding to growing speculation about their imminent release. The increasing frequency of these leaks indicates that the official launch of the wireless earbuds might be just around the corner.
Google has scheduled a hardware launch event for Tuesday, August 13, which seems like the perfect opportunity to unveil the Pixel Buds Pro 2. While the main highlights of the event are anticipated to be the Google Pixel 9 phones, the introduction of the new Pixel Buds Pro 2 could add an exciting dimension to the announcements.
