Sorry, but there's really nothing to see here right now. Our server is in maintenance mode – and our
little bot is trying to sort the error messages with its last bit of energy.
Whether it was a data leak, a power outage in the cluster, or just a grumpy bit – we don't know yet.
But what we do know is:
The data drama escalated into a server meltdown. But don't worry: We're on it.
What now?
Everything is surely running smoothly over at our colleagues from inside
digital – why not stop by!
Or you could pass the time by visiting our social media channels – for example Instagram, YouTube or TikTok. At least there are no
server problems there – promised.
Thanks for your patience. Our bot is already rebooting at full speed. 🔧
The Pixel Buds Pro (review) is Google’s first foray into the premium noise-canceling wireless earbuds category. Although there are many reasons to like the Pixel earbuds, they are considered far from perfect, especially when it comes to sound quality and battery life. Almost two years from their launch, a new leak about the Pixel Buds Pro 2 has surfaced, hinting at a battery life upgrade.
Bigger capacity = longer playback times
As discovered on South Korea’s UL Demko certification body (via 91Mobiles), a charging case with the model number GH8TQ, widely believed to belong to the upcoming Pixel Buds Pro successor, has been passed by the agency. The listing also revealed that this charging case has a typical rated capacity of 650 mAh.
A separate filing seen from SafetyKorea’s agency pictured the alleged actual battery cell of the Pixel Buds Pro 2, which also lends weight to the bigger battery capacity.
As a comparison, the 2022 Pixel Buds Pro’s charging case features a 620 mAh battery, making it a minimal increase. Despite the tiny difference, this might still translate to a few additional hours of playback time for the combined battery life of the earbuds.
What changes can we expect in the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2?
Apart from the charging case, it remains unknown if the Pixel Buds Pro 2 themselves will feature a longer battery life. Similarly, details about the specifications and features of the in-ear wireless earbuds remain scarce, although we can expect Google to give them improved sound quality and usability.
Concerning the launch and availability of the Pixel Buds Pro 2, Google may use the upcoming I/O on May 14 to officially reveal the headphones. With that, it would be aligned with the original Pixel Buds Pro’s timing which was announced in the same conference back in 2022.
However, they may wait until this fall to announce the next-generation Pixel Buds Pro. The Google Pixel 9 series is expected to break cover sometime in October this year. The handset’s lineup is said to include a standard Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and foldable Pixel Fold 2 that is internally dubbed as Pixel 9 Pro Fold.
