Overview

  • Google’s online store briefly listed unannounced Pixel Buds Pro 2 in Moonstone and Obsidian shades, removing the Wintergreen and Hazel options.
  • Within hours, the Moonstone and Obsidian variants were pulled and Wintergreen was reinstated with an “out of stock” label.
  • The color shuffle points to Google’s strategy of matching earbuds, phones and wearables under a cohesive Moonstone palette.
  • The back-and-forth updates on the Google Store reveal coordination challenges in the run-up to the Made by Google event.
  • The official debut of these color variants for Pixel Buds Pro 2, the Pixel 10 series and Pixel Watch 4 is expected at the August 20 announcement.
