Apple to Release New Powerbeats Pro 2 Wireless Earbuds on February 11 [Gurman]

Apple is set to release its new Powerbeats Pro 2 wireless earbuds on February 11, according to a new report from Mark Gurman.

In a newsletter to subscribers, Gurman says that this is a "very exciting" launch for Beats. The earbuds are expected to cost $250 and will include heart rate monitoring, a first for Apple earbuds. Additionally, we expect support for Active Noise Cancellation, Spatial Audio, and Adaptive Audio.

For months, Apple's Beats unit has been teasing the PowerBeats Pro 2 and even had athletes wearing them around publicly. Make no mistake: This is a very exciting launch for Beats and earbuds fans, who have been waiting a long time. The new model, which will cost $250, will debut publicly on Feb. 11, I'm told. It features the same H2 chip as the AirPods, better noise cancelation, and new colors, including an impressive orange. The product also has heart-rate monitoring — a first from Apple in a non-watch.

We spotted FCC listings for the left earbud (A3157), right earbud (A3158), and case (A3160) last month. Apple initially submitted the device for authorization on December 18, 2024.
