Google is getting ready to launch the Pixel Buds 2a alongside the Pixel 10 series and the Pixel Watch 4 on August 20. Ahead of the event a new official-looking image of the Pixel Buds 2a has leaked online giving us a first look at the upcoming wireless earbuds.

While the image doesn’t reveal specs or features it does confirm one of the color options to be a deep blue shade called Iris. According to earlier reports the earbuds will also be available in Strawberry, Hazel and Fog Light.

The Pixel Buds 2a will be part of Google’s budget-friendly “a” series and will serve as a more affordable option compared to the Pixel Buds 2 Pro.

These new earbuds will replace the Pixel Buds A-Series, which launched back in 2021. So a refresh is long overdue.

While exact details are still under wraps the Pixel Buds 2a are expected to come with improved sound quality and better battery life compared to their predecessor.

With the launch just weeks away more information should be revealed soon.

Google has already revealed the design of all four Pixel 10 series phones and confirmed that the official launch event will take place on August 20. But a new tip gives us a possible answer to the next big question — when can you buy one?

According to a source working at a phone retail shop, the Pixel 10 Pro will go on sale on August 20, the same day as the launch event. This may mark the start of pre-orders, with deliveries and open sales likely to begin a few days later.

While this tip focuses only on the 10 Pro, there’s a chance the entire Pixel 10 lineup could follow a similar schedule. Last year, Google launched the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro XL in August, while the smaller Pro and Fold models arrived in September. But this time, it seems likely the 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL will launch together. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s timeline remains uncertain.

If the Pixel 10 series follows the same pattern as the Pixel 9 series:

• Unveil and pre-orders: August 20
• Shipping and open sales: Likely to begin around August 29

It’s also possible that the Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds 2a will launch on a similar timeline, as Google tends to bundle announcements and sales for its ecosystem of devices.

While this information can’t be fully confirmed yet it does line up with Google’s usual release strategy so fans can expect more official news very soon.

Just a day after the Pixel 10’s color options were leaked, the upcoming Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL have now been shown in all their colors too.

The Pixel 10 Pro will reportedly come in four color options:

• Obsidian (a dark gray/black),
• Porcelain (white),
• Moonstone (a slate blue-gray),
• Jade (a soft pistachio green with gold accents).

These names follow Google’s usual style of using creative names for color variants.

Interestingly, the Pixel 10 Pro XL will be available in the exact same four colors. While some fans were hoping for a unique shade exclusive to the larger model, Google has decided to keep the options consistent across both Pro versions.

The Pixel 10 Pro XL is expected to have a 5,200 mAh battery which is the biggest ever in a Pixel phone. Both Pro models will come with telephoto cameras, macro photography support, and run on Google’s new Tensor G5 chipset, made by TSMC.

The entire Pixel 10 series is set to launch officially on August 20.
