Absolutely unacceptable.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When I saw the reviews here talking about how people were getting these with no tips I assumed it was something that had been seen and handled, but I just got a pair of these and it had literally zero earbud tips so I couldn't use them at all. They probably took an order that someone returned through it in a box and shipped it out to the next person who bought it, which is entirely unacceptable and incredibly disappointing. If you're selling a refurbished product you should at least open the box to make sure the basic accessories are in the box.

Posted .Hi Snakeeater24, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing bugs with your Google Pixel Buds A-Series. Here are some recommended steps you can try out:

- Try reconnecting your A-Series to your source device (phone/laptop/tablet) by turning your Bluetooth off, then turn it back on and reconnect your A-Series.
- Check for possible sources of interference like microwave ovens, wireless speakers, baby monitors, Wi-Fi routers, and other wireless devices.
- Finally, you may also reset your Pixel Buds. Here's how: https://support.google.com/googlepixelbuds/answer/9991816

Lost case means buy a new pair
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My child lost the charging case and there is no way to purchase another. Now we have the earbuds but they are worthless. Keep your box because you will need your serial number off it. I don't keep empty boxes in my house, so Google said to buy another pair for $100.00. not happy.

Junk - do not buy

Posted .Hi PaulH, thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you’re having a charging issue with your Google Pixel Buds A-Series.
We recommend resetting both your Pixel Buds and charging case. Here’s how:
- Plug the charging case into a power source using the included USB-A to USB-C cable.
- Ensure the Pixel Buds are seated within the charging case and leave the charging case open.
- Press and hold the pairing button on the back of the case for 30 seconds.
- When the earbuds status light stops bouncing white, let go of the pairing button.
- The earbuds status light will blink white and orange until the reset is complete and then start bouncing white.

I like
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice ear buds at a good price. I have owned these buds since they were introduced, I believe, with the Pixel 6 release. So far so good. I bought two more pairs for my kids.

Not refurbished, poor condition
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like others have noted, my supposedly refurbished buds paired to my phone as"Joe's Pixel Buds" or some such, not as a generic device name. This is strong proof there was no refurbishing done, as that would involve a software reset. In addition, my buds arrived without ANY tips. Going back to Best Buy today, will buy eslewhere.

Earwax in the headphone
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The earpiece still has what looks like earwax inside. Whoever is doing refurb did not adequately do their job. These came with someone else's bodily excretions. A discount is for open box, not for earwax.
