Surface Headphones 2 get new black color, better battery life, and Bluetooth 5What you need to know
Microsoft announced the Surface Headphones 2 today.
The successor to the original Surface Headphones brings Bluetooth 5, a black color option, aptX support, and more.
Surface Headphones go up for preorder today for $250 and will become available on May 12.
After months of rumors, Microsoft's new Surface Headphones 2 are finally here. The company unveiled the followup to the original Surface Headphones alongside a number of new Surface devices today, including the new Surface Book 3 and Surface Go 2.
The Surface Headphones 2 look very much like the original Surface Headphones, but Microsoft has made a number of improvements that make them a more attractive buy. Most notably, there's now a matte black color option, which joins the original light gray color. This has been a major request from Surface fans for a while, particularly as Microsoft has adopted matte black across the rest of the Surface lineup.
