Last week, it was rumored that Apple plans to make its Powerbeats Pro available in four new colors, including Glacier Blue, Cloud Pink, Spring Yellow, and Lava Red. Now, official marketing images have surfaced on German website WinFuture, which notes that the new colors should be released in early June with the same $249.95 pricing. No other changes are expected, beyond the possibility of some minor internal tweaks.

First introduced in April 2019, the Powerbeats Pro? were Apple's first totally wireless Beats earphones, equipped with the same H1 chip as the second-generation AirPods for "Hey Siri" and faster connection speeds between the iPhone, Apple Watch, and other devices. Existing color options include Black, Ivory, Moss, and Navy.

My wife, who is not a techie, has a pair of these and uses them all day to be on conference calls and go for runs. She just told me yesterday, "I freaking love my earbuds." Nice to have other color options for folks who need a solidly performing set of sport buds that basically function exactly like Airpods.
 
Some rather fugly colors from the toddler section...
I don’t know about ugly, but this color scheme of pastels are indeed the colors most toddler products are offered in. Everything in the baby isle is in this palette.
 
Hopefully they fix the quality...specifically the charging connect point issues. The Apple customer rep suggested (and I took him up on it) to swap the PBB for a set of APP (even outside the exchange window) due to the issues he’s seen with PBB after I took my second pair in that had the same charging issues others reported.

Nice to see come other colors that I wouldn't normally buy. My twin daughters are the target demographic for these for sure and I sure hope they don't see them any time soon. Now, only if they added some color variety to AirPods Pro, then we're in business.

These are some fun colour finishes that had active women in mind. IMO, this product serves as a slight contrast to the AirPods, but the colours available at the moment make them too serious (even though as a guy I prefer the finishes available right now). I just wish they'd match the case they come in to the colour of the headphones. In fact, there's a lot of room for innovation when it comes to the case; it's too clunky right now and doesn't scream premium.
 
i JUST got the airpod pros in February but the pink power beats are tempting as a second pair....ill wait till they are deeply discounted
 
I have a feeling that if the colors bother you, you aren't the intended audience for these products.
Yes it looks like they are trying to soften the image and attract a wider demographic. Female athletes, female gym goers.
 
Those colors will definitely not be most popular choice, but they will be a selective choice for somebody that probably would rather have the color that suits their personality. I give credit to manufactures that offer more color choices, because it usually translates to a ‘wider demographic‘ creating more sales. If Enjoy the product at it meets the consumers expectations, at least choose the color that best fits your personality as pictured above.
