Very unlikely, in my opinion. AirPods Pro 2 may have a design more akin to the upcoming Beats Fit Pro, but with a slightly larger earbud design to accommodate much better drivers.
 
right, if they go stemless, what the hell are you going to squeeze?..

As I recall, earlier rumors said it would have a design similar to the Beats Studio Buds with a button press instead of a squeeze.

The strap will be an additional $59 and we are going to love it!

Those will be the leather versions. There will also be a braided loop version for "only" $29.

Both materials will come in multiple colors so you can match you lanyard with your Apple Watch band.

2 speakers? "find me" in stereo? :p
Indeed! I suspect "Find My" can turn into a child play toy with the upgraded spatial audio which can fool (or entertain) the child with its ventriloquizing beeps fooling the child as to where it actually is....
 
Will these also alert the owner that they were left behind even with the setting turned off?
 
Looks quite believable honestly. It isn't a fake image. It does not appear to be a knock off on close inspection. And the changes themselves make sense.

The real giveaway is that the new AirPods Pro themselves don't have the optical sensor, because they would be using the new skin sensor from AirPods 3. A details most fakers probably would not catch.
 
This looks like a stolen prototype. No indication this is the final version, might just be something they were testing.
 
Only thing that really matters is - wait for APP 2 or jump in on the Beats Fit Pro.
 
I’d believe this is a knockoff version than a real deal. That strap hole looks terrible.
But if Apple can bring notch on MacBook Pro 16”, anything is possible.
