Apple has filed the unreleased "Beats Studio Buds" in the FCC or Federal Communications Commission database under model numbers A2512 and A2513. The new filings come after the reveal of the new earbuds last week within the release candidates for iOS and tvOS 14.6.

I would like something new to compliment by AirPods Pro and AirPods Max. I kinda missed Beats as they have a look that makes you standout on the street.
Any news on Powerbeats Pro 2 model? I like the ear hooks.
Have there been any good leaks (like documentation) that suggest there will be a Powerbeats Pro 2? I wonder if they will be replaced by these buds.
I too would love to see a Powerbeats Pro 2 with noise cancellation (and maybe a smaller case). The hooks and long battery life make them great for workouts and being stuck on calls (use one at a time).
