Google has made strides towards a unified color strategy across its ecosystem, with the upcoming introduction of a new "Moonstone" variant for the Pixel Buds Pro 2. This move aligns with the expected launch of the Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel Watch 4, indicating a coordinated approach to device colorways.
Leaked information initially hinted at the introduction of Moonstone and Jade hues for the Pixel 10 series, along with the Pixel Watch 4 in Moonstone. A recent product listing on the Google Store briefly revealed the Pixel Buds Pro 2 in the Moonstone shade, alongside updated visuals. This signifies Google's intent to harmonize color options for its premium hardware offerings.

The listing also hinted at a potential transition to an Obsidian variant for the Pixel Buds Pro 2, potentially replacing the current Hazel option. However, with the product photos still showcasing the Hazel version, the status of this color switch remains uncertain. Google has since removed both Moonstone and Obsidian from the site, while the previously out-of-stock Wintergreen model has made a reappearance.

Google's move to synchronize accessory colors with flagship devices echoes similar strategies employed by competitors like Apple and Samsung. By offering a cohesive color palette across phones, watches, and earbuds, Google aims to enhance the visual appeal and brand identity of its product lineup.
