Customer Ratings & Reviews

[Employee of bestbuy] The Google Pixel Buds 2 were a bit of a mixed bag when they launched in 2020. They had a unique design, decent sound, and seamless integration with Google Assistant, but also suffered from connectivity issues and somewhat finicky controls. Here's a breakdown of the pros and cons: Pros: * Comfortable fit: The design was innovative and aimed for a secure yet comfortable fit with a vent to prevent that "plugged ear" feeling. * Good sound quality: Audio was generally well-balanced, though not the absolute best in their price range. * Seamless Google Assistant integration: As expected, they worked flawlessly with Google Assistant for voice commands and real-time translation. * Wireless charging: The case supported wireless charging, a convenient feature. * Improved connectivity (eventually): Early models had connectivity issues, but Google largely resolved these through firmware updates. Cons: * Connectivity issues (early on): This was a major problem at launch, causing frustration for many users. * Mediocre battery life: Battery life was average at best, especially compared to competitors. * No active noise cancellation: A feature becoming increasingly common in this price range, ANC was missing from the Pixel Buds 2. * Finicky touch controls: The touch controls could be a bit sensitive, leading to accidental touches. * Price: They were relatively expensive compared to other true wireless earbuds with similar features. Overall: The Pixel Buds 2 were a decent option for Android users, especially those heavily invested in the Google ecosystem. However, the initial connectivity issues, lack of ANC, and average battery life made them a less compelling choice compared to some competitors. If you're considering buying them now, it's worth looking at the newer Pixel Buds Pro, which address many of these shortcomings with improved sound, active noise cancellation, and better battery life. Or, if you're on a budget, you might find good deals on the Pixel Buds 2, making them a more attractive option.

Best earbuds I've ever bought! I have been weary of big brand earbuds, often opting for the cheaper Skullcandy or JBL brand, but these are well worth the money and not even really that expensive comparitively. I love the conversation detection functionality and many more features. Easiest Bluetooth sync ever. Solid buy definitely recommend!

Audio quality is really good. Noise cancellation is also good but Airpods Pro 2 are slightly better in terms of both ANC and comfort. Controls are much easier to use on Airpods. But this is a good buy considering the price (being $60 cheaper then Airpods at the time of my purchase).

These have been better than advertised, love sound quality, the transparency function and fit

Amazing set of buds! Comfortable, great sound and they don't hurt after they have been in your ears for a long period of time.

Very good sound quality, excellent active noise cancellation. Not the most comfortable to fit in my ears but still high up there. High price, not sure if I would buy ones this expensive again, will see how long they last

These Buds are great they not only work with my Pixel 10 but also with my Samsung TV, Asus Laptop they are easy to use and the noise cancelling is excellent.

I'm very happy with these earbuds. Comfortable, great sound quality, easy to use. Connect to my pixel easily.

The best earbuds I ever used. The noise cancelling is too notch. You want near perfect silence in a loud room? Done

These headphones are amazing! I saw some reviews that they weren’t good but I still gave them a try. Don’t regret them buying them. The battery is good, they last me a good amount. I would recommend this product!

Truly the smallest earbuds I've owned and are comfortable. The sound is decent, and i love the touch features in the earbuds.

Passive noise gate is upgraded from the previous Pixel Buds Pro (meaning you can hear more of your surroundings without the noise cancellation on). Sound quality is crisp, yet I'm unsure the level at which it differs from the previous gen. Completely satisfied with my purchase.

Sound is crisp, headphones stay in ear when jogging and noise cancellation works great.

Got these at a great deal and have loved them over the 1st generation one and they stay in my ear a little bit better then the pixel Buds pro's I bought a protective case for them to keep the charging case protected for years to come

I expected the sound quality to be comparable to earbuds in the same price range. These fall very short.

Great sound but Could be better on noise cancelling.

[Employee of bestbuy] So after the initial razzle dazzle has worn off, what do i think of the Pixel Pro 2 earbuds? Eh. Not very enthusiastic for four stars. The Pro 2 doesn't do anything better than the competition, in fact, it has worse audio quality over the Sennheiser and Sony IEH flagships, worse ANC than the Sony, worse call clarity than the Apple airpods pro... So why buy the Google flagship? And why did i keep mine? Because it doesnt have any major weakness. While my time with them hasn't set me completely in fiery love with the product, there isn't any one thing these don't do pretty darn well. There are better sounding headphones, better microphone clarity around loud ambient noise, more comfortable, better ANC, better in app equalizers, but all of those come with bigger drawbacks. Google has an incredibly well rounded earbud with the Pro 2 that has apple level device integration. If you have an android, and your looking for only one set of flagship earbuds to do pretty much everything, and integrate seamlessly with your android device, it's hard to do better than these. They have no major strengths (Outside the incredible device integration), and no major weaknesses. If you use Google Assistant or Gemini, these are THE option. It will be very exciting to see how Google continues to refine their product, and i look forward to the Pro 3s really bringing the heat to Apple.

Super amazing sound quality and the most comfortable

Decent sound quality, excellent noise cancellation! Good in-ear fitting as well

Great head set better than the original, even when the original were my favorite. I did upgrade since did loose my original unfortunately. It is great that now they have a way to track them and have sound to find them
