An online shop listing for the second-generation Google Pixel Buds has cropped up, highlighting some new features and suggesting they will go on sale soon (via Android Police). The listing has since been taken down.

Google announced the new Pixel Buds in October along with the Pixel 4 but they are still to be released.

At the time, Google said the Buds would cost US$179 and be ‘available in 2020’. It’s possible that Google was looking to release them alongside the Pixel 4a and 4a XL at the company’s annual I/O event in May, but I/O has been cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

We already knew the Buds will be available in four colours: Clearly White, Almost Black, Quite Mint and Oh So Orange, but a listing of their features on the Abt Electronics site has a lot more detail. Here’s the list in full:
