Google has, seemingly by mistake, posted its “Moonstone” Pixel Buds Pro 2 early on its store, while also revealing that the “Wintergreen” color is going away.
Through the Google Store’s listing for Pixel Buds Pro 2, the 3D view of the earbuds now lists the “Moonstone” color variant that’s been leaked before and is expected to debut alongside the Pixel 10 series later this month. The new variant appears with its gray-ish color in the same case as all other models.
“Moonstone” is Google’s signature color for the Pixel 10 series, with the Pixel 10 Pro lineup set to use this new color variant. Also newly added to the lineup is “Obsidian,” which is also new, though only the name appears for now, with the color shown still appearing to be “Hazel.”
What’s more interesting, though, is that Google appears to be ditching its existing “Wintergreen” color for this new option.
While “Porcelain” and “Peony” both appear, “Wintergreen” is missing, and “Hazel” has also vanished with “Obsidian” seemingly taking its place. Again, though, only the name has changed there, so it’s possible Google is just changing the name or has made a simple slip-up. We’ll have to wait and see on that one.
The shakeup in color options is interesting, to say the least, as is the fact that we didn’t know an “Obsidian” color was coming in the first place.
Neither color is for sale just yet, but they’re likely to debut at Made by Google on August 20 alongside the Pixel 10 series, Pixel Watch 4, and Pixel Buds 2a.
