Q: Does it work if use IPhone?
A: Yup! As long as you have an iPhone 8 or newer (they require Bluetooth 5.0), it should work fine. Just note that some of the advertised features, such as the Assistant (or Siri) and other features may rely on Android, therefore they won't work on iOS. As just standard Bluetooth earbuds though, they'll work!
Q: Are these the new Pixel Buds 2?
A: Yes they are. Although, Google refers to them as just "Pixel Buds". They were announced in Oct 2019 and released May 2020. Unlike the original pixel buds (from 2017) these are truly wireless without a cord connecting the earbuds.
Q: What does it mean by getting more soon? Are these already backordered?
A: If you bought them, they said May 8th before they shipped. Turns out, that's not true. Order them when you can but don't expect to get them very quickly.
Q: Can they connect to more than one device simultaneously?
A: No, they cannot! I tried with 3 different laptops and phone, and would disconnect from one device when you connect to the other. You would have to disconnect from one device in order for the other device to connect to it. Tip: Most Bluetooth devices are not designed to work with services like Skype for Business, Teams, etc., if that what your plans are. Only Skype for Business Certified "Wireless" devices work properly, not even +300 Bose Headphones work properly. The Jabra Active 75t seems to work fine, but they don't fit as well as the Pixel Buds.
Q: Can I use left earbud alone while right is charging?
A: Yes. They can work independently.
Q: Does this have free returns if it doesn't fit right?
A: The Pixel Buds include different sized ear pieces, so you're most likely not going to need to return. If you do need to return, Best Buy lets you do them for free.
A: Google Pixel Buds don't come with a power adapter. The box includes a USB-C® to USB-A® charging cable that you can use with any standard 5W USB power adapter. You can also charge Google Pixel Buds with compatible Qi-certified wireless chargers.
A: Google Pixel Buds have a balanced bass frequency range. With focus on powerful sound and quality, the Adaptive Sound dynamically adjusts the volume as you move from a quiet or noisy environment throughout the day.
