Great earbuds, great noise cancelling functionality

Works exactly as expected. Another wonderful product from Google.

Very nice ear buds, easy to connect to my laptop and phone

Love this, bought it for my boyfriend for his bday

I love the headphones they where real easy to set up with my phone

I honestly with every fiber of my being regret buying these headphones and if I could return them for my full amount of money back I would in an absolute heartbeat. They cannot handle bass and God forbid there's a little bit of wind. You won't be able to hear anything over it. Also hearing anyone on the phone is like listening to a small child that is insecure whisper what they would like to eat. Highly do not recommend unfortunately I also hated the Samsung ones. However, they were actually better quality than these, which is highly disappointing because I have a Google pixel. If you really want Google buds, get the other ones not these. These are trash. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk

First time buying ear buds and I'm very happy with them

Avoid these. Poor design and constant glitches. Stay away from this product. These earbuds are incredibly uncomfortable and poorly designed for anyone with an active lifestyle. Google should stick to software because their hardware is a massive disappointment. If your job involves any movement, look elsewhere. Even slight head movements trigger accidental functions, making them impossible to use. A total waste of money.

Sound is great but the buds fall out a lot. God forbid you run with these in...

Felt cheap, Plastic would make noise when inserting in ear.

As a previous owner of the original Pixel Buds, I decided to try the Pixel Buds Pro 2, hoping they’d fix some of the issues I had with the earlier model. While there are definitely improvements, a few key problems remain. One of the big features Google is promoting is the addition of their new Gemini sound technology, which promises a richer, more immersive audio experience. I have to say, the sound quality is a noticeable step up. The bass is more powerful without overwhelming the mids and highs, making for a well-balanced listening experience. Paired with improved Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), these earbuds do a great job blocking out background noise, whether you’re on a noisy commute or just trying to focus. Another feature I found useful is the transparency mode, which lets you hear what's going on around you while still listening to audio. This is especially helpful in situations where you need to stay aware of your surroundings or engage in quick conversations without taking out the buds. For me, it even helps with hearing people more clearly, almost like a subtle hearing aid, which is a great addition. You can also use Live Translate with these, allowing you to translate conversations in real-time. While I haven’t had much opportunity to use this feature extensively, in the few tests I tried, it seemed to work fairly well. It’s not a feature I’ll use every day, but for travelers or those needing quick language support, it could be a real asset. One feature I appreciated is the seal check, which helps ensure you’re getting the best possible fit. The earbuds test the seal in your ears and guide you to adjust them if needed, which improves both sound quality and noise cancellation. This helps a lot with comfort, too, since a good fit makes a big difference when wearing them for long periods. However, my biggest frustration with the original Pixel Buds—touch controls—remains. The controls are still overly sensitive, and it’s easy to accidentally pause or skip tracks when adjusting the buds or even when brushing against them. I was really hoping for physical buttons or a less finicky touch system, but unfortunately, this hasn’t changed. Another feature that sounds great on paper is the conversation detection. This is supposed to automatically pause your music when it detects you’re talking. In reality, it doesn’t always work as expected. Sometimes it pauses the audio when I’m not speaking or doesn’t kick in fast enough when I do start talking. It’s a bit inconsistent and could use some fine-tuning. On a positive note, the battery life is excellent. You get up to 11 hours of listening time on a single charge, and the charging case brings the total to 31 hours. The case itself is compact and supports wireless charging, which is a convenient feature. In summary, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 bring significant upgrades like improved sound, noise cancellation, and smart features some may find useful. However, the touch controls remain a major annoyance for me personally, and conversation detection isn’t as reliable as it should be. If you’re heavily invested in Google’s ecosystem and can overlook these drawbacks, these earbuds are a solid choice.

The version before this is better. These feel and sound cheap.

The product is good but some Time it gives issues while talking my voice to other person becomes low and echo

While they are good in the ear and have improved over the first model. These ear buds still do not compare to apple. You might have a good 24hrs of music after that you could have it where music will go out in one of ear or both depending and while listening to music it could end up changing the sound quality. Taking voice calls are better but some times people can not hear you while you are talking overall it is very frustrating and I really hope that they fix this issue

Finally!!!! They went back to the smaller buds with "stabilizers" on them. So far great sound, ANC is good, havent fallen out, no pain in the ear canal after 20 minutes like with the Buds Pro. The ANC works immediately unlike the Buds Pro. Theyre not extremely loud like others try to be, but how loud do you really need them to be since theyre in your ear & have good ANC???? I also think kids would enjoy these since they went back to the smaller size. As with anything else....Im sure they will get even better with updates.

I don't like that they keep filling down all the time. Other than that everything is good.

I cant figure out how to make it actually noise cancelling. No matter what setting it is on, i can still hesr outside / backgroud noise.

Have 1st gen pro. No issues. These constantly had sound issues (squeaking, squealing, super loud bass). Tired all the typically troubleshooting; adjusting settings, cleaning them, resetting them; nothing. Usually my extra income is spent on new Google products every year but this will make me wait until my current ones just don't work.

These headphones weren't for me. I felt like I could hear them banging in my ear when I was running on the treadmill, and I could static when I was wearing them standing still. Creating static in my ear so that I can't hear noise around me isn't "noise cancelling", it's just annoyiong.

Broke after the deadline for electronic returns by 2 days....very disappointed
