Reddit users discover Teenage Engineering’s potential new product – the OP-XYTeenage Engineering is acting rather suspiciously, and users on Reddit appear to have discovered why. According to an FCC filing found by a user on the platform, the brand appears to be gearing up for the launch of a potential new product, the OP-XY.
The filing isn’t the only exciting activity happening at the TE camp either, as both its official Instagram and that of CEO Jesper Kouthoofd have also been dropping some strong hints. Alongside this potential new launch, it also appears that TE is looking to release another iteration of its Grip Car too.

Last week, the brand posted a photo of a simple black to white gradient, with the caption “etwas kommt bald”, meaning “something is coming” in German (translation via Google). Kouthoofd also posted a similar photo of the same gradient, with the simple caption of #XY, among a number of other intriguing photos. The same image and text also appears on its website.

Though staying pretty low-key about the speculative XY, he also posted a photo of what appears to be “grip car 2”. The caption states, “#XY #bluetooth approved #launch soon #gripcar2 #autonomous”. In the comment section, he also says this should be landing sometime next week.

The OP-XY appears to be a follow up to its OP-Z portable synthesiser and sequencer, which launched back in 2018. As per MusicRadar, the device looks to offer Bluetooth connectivity.
The FCC certification for the new device was approved in late October, meaning it has the green light for sales in the US. TE has also requested a confidentiality period that ends in April 2025, which prevents specific (and often sensitive) information from being revealed.
You can view the current full Teenage Engineering product range via its official website. Be sure to check back on MusicTech for further updates as we get them.
