Customer Ratings & Reviews

​I recently picked up the Pixel Buds Pro 2 under a great deal from Best Buy, and they have exceeded all my expectations. ​They pair and work flawlessly with my Google Pixel 10 Pro. The integration is seamless, the sound quality is crisp and immersive, and the active noise cancellation is top-notch. They fit comfortably, stay secure, and the battery life has been fantastic. ​I absolutely love them—highly recommended if you want the perfect audio experience, especially if you are in the Pixel ecosystem!

Came in an alright amount of time, not fast but didn't take forever either, box had a slight dent on the corner, obviously the shipper didn't cause it, but packaging is soft enough to dent pretty easily from 1/2 drops. Earbuds themselves sound great, 3 differnt Ear tip options, the middle ones seem to be a tiny bit smaller than I'd like, but other than that they fit pretty much perfectly, and ANC is alright, works but nothing special as they are still earbuds, they can also dual connect or whatever and be connected to 2 devices at once (only audio playback from 1 at a time but it's still pretty cool). No problems with battery life, I'd say I do get a bit less than 8 hours if I'm stressing them out (in a call for multiple hours / playing music for 6/7 hours straight). Had a weird problem connecting for a bit, but after an update or something, they now connect flawlessly.

I got these Pixel Buds Pro 2 to go with my new Pixel 10 Pro XL, and they are the perfect match. The "Hazel" color is very sleek and looks great. Sound Quality & ANC: The sound quality is fantastic—clear highs, rich mids, and deep, satisfying bass that isn't overpowering. The Active Noise Cancellation is also top-notch. It does an amazing job of blocking out background noise like gym music or the hum of an air conditioner. The transparency mode sounds very natural when I need to hear my surroundings. Connectivity & Features: This is where these truly shine for a Pixel owner. They paired with my phone the instant I opened the case. The connection is rock-solid, and features like Multipoint audio, which lets them stay connected to my phone and laptop simultaneously, are a game-changer. Having Google Assistant in your ear for reading notifications or sending texts is incredibly useful. Fit & Battery: They are very comfortable to wear for hours at a time, and they come with multiple ear tip sizes to ensure a secure fit. The battery life is also solid, easily getting me through a full day of use with the charging case. If you own a Pixel phone, these are without a doubt the earbuds to get. The seamless integration and smart features make them an essential accessory.

For the last four years I've used the Beats fit pro. They recently broke and I've struggled to find a good replacement. I tried models from Beats, Nothing, and Sony. However, all of them had significant downsides. I finally landed on the Pixel Buds Pro 2 as my replacement and I couldn't be more happy. Pros: Comfort - I can work all day with my earbuds in and never have any fatigue or pain. Transparency Mode - I know many people care more about ANC, but for me I need to be able to hear my surroundings. The transparency mode is fantastic. There is no pressure or white noise. Battery - Lasts my whole work day. Case Size - Far smaller than other brands I've tried. ANC - Does it's job well when I need it. Connectivity. I can have my phone sitting on the main floor and the earbuds stay connected when I run down to the basement. Cons: Honestly, my only con is the color. It feels like Google went to two opposite ends of the spectrum: two boring colors in black/white and two wild colors in neon blue and pink. I would have loved a forest green or navy blue.

I’ve been using the Pixel Buds Pro 2 for a couple of weeks now and the first thing that stands out is how tiny and lightweight they are compared to older models. They fit incredibly securely in my ears without feeling bulky and they don't cause any ear fatigue even after wearing them for hours during long sessions. The Active Noise Cancellation does a great job blocking out background hums and the Transparency mode feels very natural—almost like I'm not wearing earbuds at all. The sound profile is clean and balanced, though I did find myself tweaking the EQ settings a bit to punch up the bass to my liking. My only real complaint is that the touch controls can feel a little finicky because the buds themselves are so small. Swiping to adjust the volume sometimes takes a few tries to register correctly. Overall, though, they are fantastic daily driver earbuds with excellent battery life.

Battery life is amazing. I think it might last a bit over 8h with ANC (after just over 4h with constant usage and ANC, they were at 55%). Also, this might be pixel phone exclusive, but it actually shows the exact percentage, not just the 90%, 80%, 70%, so on. There's no voice for these saying "connected" or "low battery", it's just cute little chimes (that I believe you can turn off, at least the one for when they're charging). Conversation recognition is pretty good, takes a second to recognise sometimes but that might just be my accent or me talking too fast. Also works for Spanish! Turns on only when *you* speak, not when others do. And you can turn it on and off. It does sometimes activate when I'm laughing while watching a video but it's only happened like once or twice. The little nub everyone complains about isn't actually all that bad in my ear. Even my mum didn't complain and she hates earbuds, or anything in her ear. The noise cancellation works really well for sounds around you, minus voices. It sounds more muted (at least when they're right next to you), which is fine for me. Not as loud as my soundcore p30i, but maybe that's better for my ears. In settings (for Google Pixel phones at least), it shows you if you're volume is too loud, and even tells you what your daily/weekly exposure to that level of noise should be (and has some examples like music festival and normal conversation). But you can turn off the volume level notification as well. It can also connect to two devices (as advertised) and truly does switch between devices depending on who's playing audio. But remember to turn on the setting (Dual connection and Audio Switch). Also, to see what % the case is at, take one earbud out, and keep the other one inside. Then it will tell you the % of all three. The wireless charging is a huge bonus, and with Battery Share on my pixel, I can charge my headphones with my phone. It's a type C, same as the phone. TL;DR Worth it for me. It will obviously work better with a pixel phone, and probably works best with the 9 series, so take my review with a grain of salt knowing those conditions. The headphones themselves feel nice, don't fall out, and sound pretty good (maybe not 200$ good but the other features make up for it imo). If you have the money and you're looking into them, I'd say go for it!

Premium Sound and Killer Transparency (with a few minor trade-offs) The Google Pixel Buds 2 deliver a truly impressive audio and usage experience, making them a fantastic choice for those prioritizing connectivity, ambient awareness, and intuitive physical interaction. The Good: The sound quality on these is superb. Even after jumping into the EQ settings and boosting both the lows and the highs, the sound remains balanced and clear—there is absolutely no muddiness, which is often a problem when enhancing bass. The connectivity experience feels genuinely premium. Switching between my devices is effortless, and the connection speed is lightning fast every time I pull them out of the case. They just work, which is a huge benefit for a busy lifestyle. The standout feature for me is the Transparency Mode. It is truly awesome and feels like a genuine safety feature. Whether I’m walking my dog late at night and need to be aware of my surroundings, or I need to be available to coworkers during the workday, the ambient sound pass-through is clear and natural, keeping me connected to the world without removing my music. Key Features: The touch controls are excellent and highly intuitive. Simple single taps handle actions like pausing or playing music, while the ability to control volume by simply swiping forward or backward on the bud—a feature often frustratingly absent in competitors—is a major convenience. Regarding fit, I would classify it as average and highly dependent on ear shape. While they use a small stability arc, I struggled to find the perfect size; the ear cups I use feel slightly loose at times, but the next size up was too large. This means the fit isn't as secure as I'd like during high-intensity activity. The Caveats: While the buds themselves are great, the charging case is unfortunately extremely scuffable. Its smooth, pebble-like finish looks great out of the box, but I've found that you really have to be careful not to put the case in a pocket alongside keys or any unclean/rough surfaces if you want to keep it looking nice. My only other minor issue has been a handful of random noise blips during use. These seem to occur mostly when the AI processor is trying to actively smooth out or process external noises, or perhaps due to heavy radio interference in busy areas, but they are infrequent enough not to be a dealbreaker. Verdict: If you want best-in-class, rapid connectivity, clean audio, and an excellent transparency feature for situational awareness, these are highly recommended. The intuitive touch controls are a major convenience that elevate the user experience. Just treat the charging case gently!

Works especially well if you have a pixel device to pair it with! The noise cancellation isnt completely sound proof of course, but on a commercial flight I could not hear the plane. That's good enough in my book. Quality is superb, I can get roughly 6-8 hours in the buds alone and the case can give a full charge roughly 3 times. That's a more accurate description of the battery life. I love the locking technology, to keep them in ur ears works pretty well (don't have to adjust nearly as often). Normally I don't buy expensice earbuds because I tend to lose things often, however I the gps tracking is not just for the case but for each individual ear bud as well. The case can also play a noise to help you find them easier. Also, wireless charging helps me a lot. At the end of the day I just plop them on my charging stand and within 40 minutes (assuming zero charge left) they are ready to go again. Just a really great product man I love these things couldn't be happier with my purchase!

They stay in my ear better than the Pixel Buds Pro that I had before. For reference, I have very small ears. My ears are also shaped differently. The left bud stays better in my ear than the right one does, with the latter tending to slip out if I smile hard. Nonetheless, the fins on these as well as the smaller size keeps them stabilized. Whenever I'm on the bus and we hit a bump on the road, or if I stomp heavy after my foot steps down from a ledge there's this weird depressurized feeling that occurs in one ear canal with a bud. It's not to frequent it happens though. I like how the case has these chimes that go off when you insert the buds into it as well as when you charge it. It's also helpful that it dings with Google's Find my Device, unlike just the earbuds with the first generation Buds Pro. The sound profile is great, similar to the first generation Buds Pro. Bluetooth connectivity is strong, battery life is as well. These are great overall!

I got these to replace the Beats earbuds that I lost and I like them but have a couple critiques. I love the noise cancellation quality, probably the best of any earbuds I've tried. But the controls are pretty inconsistent. The outside doesn't have a button it's just a tap sensor, and it's like it chooses when it wants to control pausing my content I'm listening to or changing the volume. Maybe I didn't read the instructions clearly enough but I don't think the same motion should control 2 different things. Also it has this setting where if you have noise cancellation on and you take one of them out of your ear, the other will shift to transparency mode. I haven't decided if I like that yet, still getting used to it. Otherwise I really like the sound quality and they are very comfortable, never once have my ears gotten sore from them.

I've been using the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 for while now, and they are a great pair of earbuds. The audio quality is excellent, with rich, well-balanced sound. The active noise cancellation (ANC) is fantastic and makes my commute much more peaceful. They're comfortable for long listening sessions, and the battery life is impressive, lasting a full day. My only minor complaint is that the transparency mode could be more natural. Still, this is a small issue. Overall, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 are a solid choice for anyone in the Google ecosystem looking for great sound and superb noise cancellation.

One of the best purchases than I ever bought, it have a very nice noise cancellation, works very well with Gemini, have many options for a better experience, a very good battery, fits very well, I recommend it!!!

The Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 are simply fantastic! I love how comfortable they are – even during long listening sessions, they never bother my ears. The sound quality is crystal clear, and the active noise cancellation works perfectly to block out distractions. One of the best parts is that they stay securely in place, even during intense workouts. I never have to worry about them falling out. Plus, the new locate feature gives me peace of mind – no more stressing when I misplace them. If you’re looking for wireless earbuds that deliver top-notch sound, comfort, and convenience, these are a must-have!

I absolutely love these!! It was time for an upgrade from my previous pixel buds and once I purchase these they arrived quickly and the setup was super easy. I love the fact that you don't have to have the case near you at all times. If you are utilizing the buds, you can walk away from it without any issues. When you have both buds in the noise canceling feature is absolutely amazing! Definitely a win. I sometimes use these at night for long phone calls/ and end up falling asleep and when I wake up they are still in place and still have a charge. So that is definitely a plus. I also like that it tells you the charging status of each bud and the case. This was a great purchase for sure & I highly recommend

Has the airpod pro 2s since they came out and these are just as a good at a lower price. Transparency mode could be better (still very good) but the android experience with these vs the airpods is way better. I also think they look cool.

The noise cancelling is great and the transparency mode makes me forget I had them in. Great sound quality. Easy to connect to my multiple devices as it switches automatically based on which one I'm using. Purchased Open Box - Excellent... came without a box and works excellent!

As a Pixel 10 Pro user I got these because of the Gemini integration. It is truly handsfree compared to manual touch for assistant on other hand phones. Allows me to ask for weather and directions without touching my phone and have lengthy conversations with Gemini where Gemini waits for me. The noise cancelation is good, able to tune out a TV at a FIFA watch party and sound at an airport and noise in a Publix supermarket. Often times I needed people to tap at me to be able to know they are speaking to me. They are so good. Also sound quality in the microphone is brilliant

Right away I noticed the sound signature is definitely different than the original pros. TBH I'm not a fan initially but hey maybe it's Google shooting for a more neutral sound curve which is throwing my perception off. With eq tweaks it sounds pretty good. Definitely not bass heavy by default like it's predecessor. Bass can be cranked up if desired but be aware it gets a little boomy and muddy. Transparency nailed! Noise canceling nailed! Fit is way better and doesn't feel like you don't know which way to seat it in your cartilage. Just twist until the wing rests on your cartilage. Overall I'm impressed with the improvements and it's nice the case design didn't change enough that my Spigen armor case fits perfectly! I highly recommend playing around with different tip sizes and styles as even the large tips didn't seal well for me. This will drastically improve bass and noise canceling. I Had some old wired powerbeats tips laying around and they fit and allow the lid to close with just the right clearance.

I was hesitant to try this on, because of the shape and overall fit, I'm used to the airpods and have been my daily drivers for a couple of years, so naturally the bar was set high. After 2 months of usage I'm greatly impressed by the overall quality, fit, sound profile. Noise cancellation isn't as good as the apple counterpart, but it's good enough for my day to day use. Battery life is just average. There's many features and perks to explore, specially if you also have a Pixel phone, but honestly I wouldn't base a review on those, since I consider that excelling in the basics is what truly sets apart a product in their category.

The last two pair of buds I had were Jabras. On one set I dropped the case and it no longer closed properly. I could still use them, but it sounded like a newer version would stay in your ears better. They were worse, and on that set one stopped working after a couple of years. I decided to try the Google Pixel Pro 2 buds. Finally, something that stays in my ears. They stay in my ears. I still have to adjust one from time to time so it is a tight fit as far as noise cancellation (my own ear issue), but they don't fall out. They are smaller than my old ones, and the noise cancellation is better.
