Beats Teases New Powerbeats Pro 2 Coming Next Year

Beats today teased that new Powerbeats Pro 2 are coming next year, but it did not share a specific release date for the wireless headphones.

Powerbeats Pro 2 Teaser Feature
MLB superstar Shohei Ohtani can be seen wearing the Powerbeats Pro 2 in a clip shared on social media platforms like Instagram and X. They look similar to the existing Powerbeats Pro released in 2019, but have a more vertical, slimmer design. Beats did not reveal any new features or other specific details about the Powerbeats Pro 2 at this time.

Powerbeats Pro are a sportier, fitness-focused version of AirPods Pro with built-in, adjustable ear hooks for a secure fit. Key features of the current Powerbeats Pro include the H1 chip that debuted in the AirPods 2, IPX4-rated sweat and water resistance, up to nine hours of battery life, and silicone ear tips with four size options.


While we do not know what to expect from the Powerbeats Pro 2 at this time, plausible upgrades based on other Beats headphones models released over the past two years include improved sound, longer battery life, a USB-C charging case, and improved cross-platform compatibility with Android features like Find My Device.

Beats will likely continue to tease the Powerbeats Pro 2 headphones over time, so we should learn more about them in the coming months.

I freaking LOVE my Powerbeats Pro and wear them constantly. They never pop out of my ears just like all other airpods model. The only things I would change is get them some damn noise cancellation and make a new case that doesn't want to slip right out of your hands the moment you pick it up.

Been waiting a long time for these. Have used PBPs almost daily since 2019 launch.

However this preview video has me a little concerned as they don’t appear to have physical buttons (volume rocker and button on the earbud itself). Hope I’m wrong.

If they add noise cancelation, I’m definitely interested.

I'm amazed it has taken this long for a new edition to come out. I really liked my Powerbeats Pro until the battery(ies?) starting flaking out. I wasn't ready to buy the same model, as by then it was already getting out of date. After waiting for a while I moved on to another brand of over-the-ear earbuds. They aren't as good, but they've done the job fine at a lot lower price. Still, I'm interested in what version 2 can offer.

I thought they forgot about these.

I could care less about any design changes or colors, but just make them last longer and be more reliable when it comes to charging.
