Customer Ratings & Reviews

Overall the device is fantastic. They fit well and are relatively comfortable over long periods of time. Love being able to control the use of noise canceling and transparency mode by touch. Touch controls can be a bit sensitive when running and wiping sweat off of your face but you can disable the touch controls for that situation. The only con would be the max volume could be a bit louder but the bass install sound quality sounds amazing.

In the box you get the case, earbuds, and three sized ear tips. Case feels solid and is easy to hold and small enough to carry in pocket. Size-wise the earbuds are a tad bigger than the Pixel Buds A series. I have included a picture of both for comparison. Note there is no cable or power brick in box. It came pretty juiced up but to charge them you use a existing usb-c cable or wireless charging is supported as well. I got charcoal but all the color options this year look great. Connecting to my Pixel phone was as easy as it gets. I opened the case after unboxing and my phone just prompted me to connect to them. I then proceeded to go though the setup wizard and updating the firmware to latest version. There is some customization in the pixel settings app as well. The fit in ear is right on for me. If I shake my head around they do not fall out. One thing that does annoy me though is that I am constantly taping the touch buttons when I put them in my year which is usually changing the volume and what not. I guess I need to get better at putting them in without touching the end of the bud. The touch controls and in ear detection is very responsive. Pause, volume up/down, skip, and trigger google assistant. They have three modes. active noise cancelling, transparency mode, and off. Each one changes how you hear surrounding sounds and each one has a purpose for the environment you are in. Weather thats in a noisy place or out in public and need to be more alert of your surroundings. One other thing thats starting to become more popular with newer headphones/earbuds is you can pair them to multiple devices. In my case these are paired to both my phone and pc so I can switch back and forth depending on what I'm doing. The integration with the Android eco system is where the functionality really kicks in. You have notifications, google assistant, and they work with Google Translate. They can help you interpret a language you don't speak in real time! As for sound quality I was surprised. They do sound really good for small ear buds. Better than my galaxy buds and the previous gen pixel buds. But not quite as good as some others that cost a bit more. That's the catch here. From what I have used, these are the best sounding ear buds in this price range. I was a bit disappointed I couldn't customize the EQ but honestly they sound just right to me out of the box so I'm not sure I would make any adjustments anyway. Overall I think these are the pixel buds we have been waiting for. They fit well, sound great, and integrate with Googles Android OS. These are the best Pixel Buds yet!

I had to give it a try because I already have a pixel phone and that kind of integration usually makes connections more seamless. I was really impressed with the audio quality these buds pump out. It was time for me to upgrade from the Galaxy buds pro because you can't really do " transparency " on those with one earbud in. Google Assistant is more responsive with these buds than any other. I hear there's also an update coming up regarding spatial audio and I can't wait to give that a try.

INTRO: The Pixel Buds Pro are entering a pretty saturated space of truly wireless earphones with ANC and Transparency modes. While Google has produced Pixel Buds in the past, none have had either of these features, so after AirPods Pro came out in 2019 and dominated the market, Google will need to come in with strong sound, controls and features to put a dent in the market. UNBOXING: The box is very easy to open. Two pull/rip tabs is all it takes to get inside the box. All the packaging is paper, which is nice to see compared to a lot of plastic found in other packages. Inside you’ll find the Pixel Buds Pro, a small cylindrical container which houses two extra pairs of different size ear tips, and the safety + instruction manuals. A charging cable is not included, which seems to be more commonplace these days. BUILD: The case is made of a soft touch smooth plastic. It’s reminiscent of the kind of smooth pebble you might use to skip rocks at a lake or something—a very satisfying feeling in the hand. However, this does mean it’s pretty slippery. I’m not yet sure if finger oils will wear it down, but you can always get a case if you want to protect it. As for the actual buds, they are quite smooth with touch-sensitive controls on the exterior, a hall effect sensor to detect when they’re in your ears, and there are microphones for their ANC and Transparency modes. Because of how slippery-smooth the case and earbuds are, I have found myself fumbling a few times while pulling the earbuds out. There isn’t really a good lip within the case to pull the earbuds out—especially if your hands are a bit soft. So I’d advise caution because you might find yourself dropping either the case or the earbuds, or both if you’re really unlucky. It’s likely that as you wear the earbuds, oils will collect on the earbuds and will exacerbate this issue. So I recommend cleaning them from time to time, as they do collect quite a bit of oils from your skin. COMFORT: I’ll start out with this—comfort is different than “fit”. I do find the Pixel Buds Pro to be comfortable. As I’ve been wearing them at home, at work, and during my public transit commute, I haven’t felt like they were pestering my ears. So I gotta give credit where credit is due. However, the fit is not intuitively great. Unlike most earbuds I’ve tried, these require more rotating once the ear tips are secured into the ear canal. I’ve been using the smallest ear tips and I find that I have to jostle them into place to get them feeling secure. There are Comply foam tips for the Pixel Buds Pro, and I may certainly get them, as they’ve been fantastic for fitment with my AirPods Pro. I think a lot of people will likely give up on these pretty quickly because their weight distribution is rather top-heavy and will be a bit more prone to falling out if you don’t manage to figure out how to get a good fit. But once I got a good fit, excessive head movement did not unsecure the Pixel Buds Pro from my ears, which is great. SETUP: The first thing to note here is that there is a firmware update that should be applied for best performance, and this can only be done from a device running Android. So if you’re an iPhone user, you will need to find an Android device to perform the update from. Simply open the lid of the case, press and hold the button on the rear of the case, and the front LED will blink to indicate it’s in pairing mode. Once you pair with your device, you may be prompted to download the Google Pixel Buds app. If not, you can download the app from the Play Store. You can run through the setup where it will teach you of all the features of the Pixel Buds Pro, and it may present a firmware update afterward. If it does not, I found that the app provided the option the next time I pulled the buds out of their case. At the time of writing, I am on firmware 120+release_2.12_signed for both the buds and the case. FEATURES: The basic features of the Pixel Buds Pro are Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), Transparency Mode, touch sensitive controls, multipoint audio and automatic switching, and a ton of Google Assistant integration. On top of that, you also have the USB-C charging on the case and Qi Wireless charging. The swiping controls are a bit different than some other in-ear headphones I’ve experienced. To change volume, you swipe forward to increase and swipe back to decrease. Tapping once will pause/resume playback or pause/answer a call. Double-tapping will go to the next track forward or reject a call, and triple-tapping will go back to the previous track. All the aforementioned actions can be performed on both ear buds. If you have an Android device, you can customize what touch & hold does on each earbud. For example, I’ve set my right earbud to toggle between ANC and Transparency modes, while holding my left earbud will engage Google Assistant where I can say a command and release my touch to finish the command. I do like this because it’s more deliberate, but you can also use the popular “Okay Google” or “Hey Google” voice activation keywords. You can also disable Google Assistant and voice activation altogether if you prefer. One standout feature with Google Assistant was the translation mode. By telling Google “Be my translator”, it was able to interpret a foreign language like Japanese to English and vice-versa. It was most effective with shorter sentences as opposed to really long run-on sentences, as it waits for pauses before translating, but it does a pretty solid job. There is also the Volume EQ which supposedly enhances bass and treble frequencies at lower volumes, but in my testing, I really had to listen very intently to notice a difference. And lastly, there is the Find device feature to help you locate your Pixel Buds Pro. SOUND: The Pixel Buds Pro have a pretty balanced sound that I think many people will be happy with, but it’s not perfect. They have a competent bass presence that is especially enjoyable for bass-heavier music, but is still good for most music. I think if anything, I’ve listened to a few mixes where the vocalist sounded pushed further back in the mix than was intended. I did also notice that the treble is a bit hot in certain regions that cause snares or cymbal crashes to come across as a bit harsh—especially at louder volumes. I don’t think it’s a deal breaker for me, but this experience will be highly dependent on the kind of content you listen to and how it was mixed and mastered. So while the sound isn’t a home run, I do think that they are capable of delivering a competent listening experience. Google says they are working on an 5-band EQ that should come in a software update later down the road. I’d really have liked to see a 5-band EQ, but hopefully this could make a difference in addressing people’s personal preferences. ANC & TRANSPARENCY: The ANC on the Pixel Buds Pro does a good job at blocking out droning noises. In my experience, it does a better job with lower-end noises. If you’re listening to music, you likely won’t notice any droning background noise, but intermittent noises like human speech will still be more noticeable by comparison. That being said, this is still the case with most ANC earbuds, so it’s not a knock on the Pixel Buds Pro—simply an observation. The Transparency mode on the Pixel Buds Pro is also quite good. Like with any other wireless headphones, transparency mode doesn’t help make speech very comprehensible if you have audio playing at louder volumes, but at lower volumes, you should be able to hear what’s going on around you reasonably well. But this implementation doesn’t quite sound fully transparent, as there is a slight bit of muffling/damping in treble detail. Despite this, it is a very good transparency mode. MIC: The microphone is also unsurprisingly competent under good conditions. If you’re under harsh wind, the microphone will probably struggle to pick you out, but under quieter circumstances or with mild background noise/conversation, I think the Pixel Buds Pro do a good job at picking up your voice and delivering it with clarity for phone calls or online meetings without introducing too much distortion. BATTERY: In my limited testing, the battery life is also quite good. Google says the Pixel Buds Pro should last 7 hours with ANC on and 11 hours without. And with the charging case, they should get “up to” 31 hours of battery. While I can’t say I’ve managed to analyze the battery thoroughly in the limited time I’ve had them, I do feel confident in their estimates based on the hours I’ve spent with them. CONCLUSION: Overall, the Pixel Buds Pro are worth considering if you want an option with good battery life, decent ANC and Transparency modes, and delivers competent sound. There are absolutely other options that will deliver better sound, but they probably won’t be able to translate a conversation. While I don’t think these are knock out in the park, I do think Google’s first implementation of a Flagship pair of truly wireless ANC earbuds is solid and they deserve some attention.

They do everything they should. Comfortable and quick- charging. I hope they are last earbuds I ever buy.

The Google Pixel Buds Pro are Google's premium true wireless earbuds, designed to compete with The Pixel Buds have a sleek, minimalist design but the earbuds can feel loose during intense physical activities due to the lack of additional support. The earbuds come with three sizes of silicone eartips to help achieve a proper seal, which is crucial for optimal sound quality and noise cancellation but it still comes loose. Sound Quality In terms of audio performance, the Pixel Buds Pro deliver a balanced sound profile suitable for various music genres. The bass is present but not overpowering, mids are clear, and highs are crisp without being harsh. While they may not surpass some competitors in audiophile-grade sound quality, they offer a pleasing listening experience for the average user. Noise Cancellation and Transparency Mode The active noise cancellation on the Pixel Buds Pro is effective, capable of reducing ambient sounds like the hum of a bus engine or office chatter. The transparency mode allows external sounds in, enabling awareness of surroundings without removing the earbuds. However, the effectiveness of these features can vary depending on the fit and seal achieved with the eartips. Battery Life Battery performance is a strong point for the Pixel Buds Pro. They offer up to seven hours of continuous playback with ANC enabled and up to eleven hours with ANC turned off. The included charging case provides additional charges, extending the total listening time. Connectivity and Features These earbuds integrate seamlessly with Android devices, offering features like touch controls for playback, calls, and activating Google Assistant. They also support multipoint connectivity, allowing simultaneous connection to multiple devices, which is convenient for users who frequently switch between a phone and a computer. The Google Pixel Buds Pro are a solid choice for Android users seeking premium true wireless earbuds with effective noise cancellation, good sound quality, and strong battery life. However, individuals with active lifestyles or those requiring a more secure fit during workouts might need to consider the fit and potential lack of stability due to the design.

----- SUMMARY ----- Verdict: The Pixel Buds Pro deliver a satisfying listening experience alongside useful features like gestures and hands-free Google Assistant. Couple that with their excellent battery life, comfort, and stylish design, and I think the Pixel Buds Pro are serious contenders in the wireless earbuds market. They’re the noise-canceling earbuds that Android fans like me have been asking for. Pros: - Good active noise cancellation - Solid audio quality and consistency - Excellent battery life - Comfortable to wear - Stylish design - Hands-free Google Assistant Cons: - Some features not available for iPhone users - No custom equalizer adjustments ----- DETAILS ----- Unboxing & Setup: The Pixel Buds Pro come in a simple box with just the earbuds (housed in their charging case), a cardboard tube containing two extra eartip sizes (one smaller pair and one larger pair), as well as a quick-start guide and a safety/warranty pamphlet. There’s no charging cable, so you’ll either need a USB-C cable or a Qi-certified wireless charger to charge the case. On an Android phone, paring couldn’t be simpler. Opening the lid of the Pixel Buds Pro case will automatically start Google’s “Fast Pair” service on your phone and guide you through the setup. Though the Pixel Buds Pro are compatible with iPhones, it’s a slightly slower process because you’ll need to put them in paring mode and find them in the settings. Design & Comfort: At first glance, I was skeptical about the comfort of the Pixel Buds Pro. They also don’t look like they’d stay in your ears well. To my surprise, they do. Even when I workout or talk on the phone, they stay put. The comfort is great too, and that remains true during longer listening sessions as well. The two extra sets of eartips included in the box help you find the right fit. There’s even an eartip seal check in the Pixel Buds app. More on that later. The earbuds have IPX4 water resistance, so sweaty workouts or unexpected rain are no problem. The case is also water resistant but slightly less so, with an IPX2 rating. Noise Cancellation & Other Features: Google’s active noise cancellation (ANC) on the Pixel Buds Pro is excellent at dampening noises. Sounds from my nearby air conditioning unit are unnoticeable, and the buzz of a busy coffee shop is brought to a very quiet level. The only noise where I think there’s room for improvement is wind. If I have ANC on while running or on a breezy day, some of the wind sounds get picked up. On the flip side, transparency mode lets the ambient noise in so that you can hear your surroundings better. The Pixel Buds Pro can be controlled with gestures, and they work well. One tap will play/pause, two will skip the track, and three will go back. A press and hold will switch between ANC and transparency. However, in the Pixel Buds app, you can customize that same gesture to activate Google Assistant on either the right or left earbud. I find Google Assistant especially useful on the earbuds for hearing notifications read to me and responding to texts. There’s also an intuitive gesture to raise or lower the volume. A swipe forward will increase the volume and backward will lower it. Like a gesture, the Pixel Buds Pro have in-ear detection which will automatically pause audio when you remove an earbud and resume when you put it back in. Another feature I’ve found useful is multipoint connectivity. With the Pixel Buds Pro connected to both my laptop and my phone, I can go from listening to a Spotify song on my phone, pause it, then start listening to a YouTube video on my laptop. There’s no delay. Google says spatial audio is coming this Fall, which shifts the field of sound as you move your head. I look forward to trying that out. Audio & Mic Performance: I’m happy with the audio quality of the Pixel Buds Pro. I’d describe it as balanced. The audio is clear with ample bass kick, but not so much that it detracts from the rest of the soundstage. There’s also good separation between vocals and the instruments. With the Volume EQ toggle in the Pixel Buds app, treble and bass are elevated at lower volumes to ensure that highs, mids, and lows are balanced at any volume. What I was a bit disappointed to not see though was a conventional equalizer for further audio adjustments, but perhaps that could come in a future app/firmware update. I’ve not only been impressed with the audio quality but also the consistency. Throughout my extensive use so far, I’ve had zero audio dropouts. With beamforming mics and a dedicated voice pickup unit, call quality on the Pixel Buds Pro is great. I tested a variety of conditions indoors and outdoors, and the person I called claimed there was little to no background noise. This exceeded my expectations, especially when I tried them outside on a windy day or near a busy street. Whoever you call shouldn’t have any issues hearing you. Pixel Buds App: A variety of settings are available in the Google Pixel Buds app. On a Pixel, the app is already integrated into the system. For non-Pixel Android phones, you can get the app on the Play Store. It’s a simple but useful interface. The settings mainly include Google Assistant preferences, seeing location info or ringing the earbuds to help you find them, touch controls, sound settings, and firmware updates. Another neat feature is the eartip seal check which is a 20-second evaluation that helps determine if you have a good seal. Having the proper fit helps ensure that ANC blocks as much noise as possible and improves the audio quality. I like that the Pixel Buds app is both simple and useful. The one downside is that it’s not available for iOS, so iPhone users are stuck with the defaults and unable to download any firmware updates. Battery Life & Charging: I put Google’s claimed 11-hour battery life (per charge) to the test, which proved to be accurate. The one caveat is that’s with ANC off. When I enabled ANC the whole time, I averaged about seven hours. The case provides a little under two full charges, so with ANC enabled the total battery life is about 20 hours, and with it disabled, the total is about 31 hours. That gives the Pixel Buds Pro a slight advantage over some of the other “pro” earbuds on the market. Other than using the Pixel Buds app to see battery status, you can open the case lid when the earbuds are inside and see what the light on the front shows. Solid white is fully charged, solid yellow means one or both earbuds are charging, and blinking yellow means the earbuds have charge left but the charging case has less than 20%. When it’s time to charge, there’s a USB-C slot located at the bottom of the case, or you can charge wirelessly on any Qi-certified charging accessory. ----- WHAT’S IN THE BOX ----- 1 x Pair of Pixel Buds Pro 1 x Charging Case 2 x Additional Pairs of Eartips (Different Sizes) 1 x Quick-Start Guide 1 x Safety/Warranty Information

I think Google might have perfected the ear bud fit. These are the best fitting ear buds I have ever tried. For Android users, they are easy to set up. They sound good. In my opinion, they have the best gesture controls. Wireless charging and a great travel case are icing on the cake. They’re not the loudest ear buds I have ever owned, but audio has been good. For the moment, there is no spatial audio, EQ options are limited to a volume equalizer, and there is no hi-res audio. But, to my ears, audio was clear. Sounds were recreated well. Music and voice calls sounded clear. The built-in microphones pick up the speaker’s voice well and do a good job filtering out background noises. If you’re an Android user or locked in to the Google Ecosystem of devices, I think these are very easy to recommend. Setup: In the box you have the buds in the case, small and large bud tips, and a small instruction pamphlet. There is no charging cable, but the case supports USB-C charging. I have a Google Pixel 6 and a Samsung Galaxy S22. On the Pixel 6, the Pixel Buds App was built-in to the interface. On the S22, you will need to download the app from the Appstore. After opening the case for the Pixel Buds Pro, I got a pairing request on my Android devices. Expect some firmware updates out of the box. Experience: The buds fit great. I used the default ear tips. I’ve lost track of the number of earbuds that just slowly work their way out of my ears. I really love the gesture controls on these earbuds. “Hey Google” integration has worked great. The software interface is easy to use. Audio quality has always been a sticking point with buds. I think these buds sound good. They’re not the loudest earbuds, but I found the volume to be loud enough. Audio was never uncomfortable or shrill to my ears. I wish they supported high-res audio. Spatial audio is a feature that will be coming later. So, for the time being, no Dolby Atmos support. Still, audio has been super clear. Highs and lows have generally sounded good. If you’re listening to more acoustic audio, you can make out fine audio details. They may not support high res audio, but they still sound pretty good. Active noise cancellation works well. Transparency mode did a good job letting ambient noise into the earbuds so you can hear your surroundings. Noise cancelling was effective without being disorienting. Sometimes, noise cancellation can make me feel dizzy like I am suffering from an inner ear problem, these did not do that. You should know that noise cancellation comes with a battery life hit. With Noise cancellation turned on, you will be looking at around seven hours of battery life on a full charge. One feature I was eager to try out was having Google translate in my ear. And, it worked, but it wasn’t as simple or easy as I thought it would be. It works, but It isn’t automatic. You have to hold down whichever bud you have set to your Google Assistant. You speak and the app translates what you say back. That worked. I never could figure out how to get the process to translate foreign languages I was listening to. And if you have to switch back and forth in the app from which language is being spoken and which language is being translated, it all gets a bit cumbersome and confusing. Still, cool idea and I hope it keeps getting better, simpler, and more intuitive. In terms of durability, the buds aren’t waterproof. The IPX4 makes the buds splash resistant. But don’t go submerging them in water any time soon. The buds can be added to “find my device”. Conclusion: I really like these buds. The overall package is impressive. I feel like audio quality is good but could be a bit louder. High-Res audio support would be nice. But, audio is rich and detailed I love how these buds fit and their simple and intuitive gestures. I’m pretty sure I will compare every future set of buds to these. They are that impressive. If you’re an Android owner, I think these are very easy to recommend. 4.5/5

These earbuds are excellent. In the box, you’ll find the case (earbuds inside with medium ear-tips), 2 sets of additional ear-tips (small and large), and some documentation. The reviewer documentation that was sent by Google stated that the retail box also contains a USB-C to USB-A charging cable… I didn’t see one, but everyone already has 30 of them, right? However, I didn’t even bother with a cable, I just tossed them on the wireless charger. The case reminds me of a slightly oversized, rounded off box of dental floss, and when I opened the top to try the earbuds and unlocked my phone, the pairing/installation process started automatically. I left the medium tips on the earbuds and the fit is practically perfect. The noise cancellation does a great job, and these earbuds (according to the reviewer docs) measure the pressure in the ear canal and can actively relieve it… and it’s very noticeable as far as comfort and wearability goes; some of the other earbuds I have with noise cancellation make my ears feel ‘tired’ after 10-15 minutes, but I’ve worn these for hours and could’ve worn them hours more. I assume the ‘tired’ feeling I felt was a buildup of pressure… who knew? I believe these are the most comfortable earbuds I’ve ever tried. As far as the sound goes, I listen to music and podcasts, and both sound great. The call quality is also outstanding. I had a friend call me at the gym, which is a rather noisy environment, and he was amazed that I wasn’t speaking straight into the phone. As far as fit goes, I’ve had no trouble with these earbuds at the gym and on runs. Through all kinds of sweat, I haven’t had any problem whatsoever with them even beginning to feel like they were going to fall out. The only issue I’ve had so far is that, out of habit, I’ll reach up to check one of them and I’ll accidently pause playback. Overall, I think these earbuds are a homerun for Google; they’re small, have many innovative features, sound great, and once you put them in your ears, you practically forget they’re there. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

These earbuds I recently purchased have exceeded my expectations in every way. The sound quality is outstanding, delivering crisp highs and deep, resonant bass. The noise isolation is impressive, providing an immersive listening experience even in noisy environments. One of the standout features is the seamless connectivity with my pixel 8. Pairing is quick and hassle-free, and the earbuds reconnect to my device effortlessly. The touch controls are intuitive and responsive, allowing me to manage calls and music playback with ease. The battery life is commendable, providing extended use on a single charge. Comfort is a priority, and these earbuds excel in this aspect. They come with multiple ear tip options, ensuring a secure fit for different ear sizes. The sleek and compact design adds a touch of sophistication, making them stylish yet discreet. The accompanying charging case is not only compact but also aesthetically pleasing. Its additional charges extend the overall usage time, making it convenient for on-the-go lifestyles. Overall, these wireless earbuds deliver a premium audio experience with user-friendly features, making them a worthwhile investment for anyone seeking high-quality, convenient audio on the move.

I’ve been using the Google Buds for a few weeks, and they are amazing! The sound quality is crystal clear, and the bass is just right. They fit so comfortably in my ears, even during long hours of use. The battery life is impressive, and the quick charge feature is super convenient. Pairing them with my phone was easy, and the touch controls are very responsive. Overall, I’m very happy with these earbuds. They’re perfect for music, calls, and even workouts. Highly recommend!

I had a pair of $70 ANC headphones that I thought sounded pretty good, until I tried these. The sound quality is outstanding. There is plenty of bass but not so much that it overpowers the rest of the sound. I listen to mostly rock music, and the clarity of each instrument is there with the Buds. I use mine with a Pixel 7 phone, and I use Google Assistant frequently, so being able to activate the Assistant at the press of an earpiece is a very helpful feature for me. The ANC is quite good. I also love that you can customize the touch controls to make them trigger the actions you want. My only nitpick is that the Buds are so small that they are sometimes awkward to handle and get seated in my ear properly, but once they're in they don't budge and are very comfortable. Call quality seems good, too. No one has complained about mic quality when I'm on a call. Battery life seems tremendous so far. I take them on 40-minute walks and the percentage barely drops.

Google has come so far from the just the best search engine in the world to now producing top notch hardware that integrates so smoothly with its ecosphere. Buying up NEST and their assistants thorough out the house…Really awesome. But I digress… Google really rocks with the Pixel Buds Pro! I love earphones and have a bunch of different pairs by different manufactures…over the ear and inside the ear ect and these have the best ANC that I have ever heard in an in-ear bud. Really impressive. I mean when I activated it, I was surprised. I have never had an in ear ANC bud work so well! Bravo, I think it’s also partially how they fit into the ear so snug that really seals the sound out! Either way tech or design… it delivers the best ANC I have ever experience in an ear bud. That in turn allows for a perfectly quiet canvas for the music to really shine! The bass is strong and the mids are smooth the highs are crystal clear! The tap controls on the buds are sharp and responsive. Phone calls sound great! The case charges wirelessly which is nice or usb C and the buds with ANC are supposed to last up to 7 hours or 20 hours with the case!! Longwe with ANC off. IPX4 so it’s splash resistant. Can’t be happier with these!

I love it, I love it, they are the best wireless headphones

Google buds are the only buds that I have purchased that I actually like. They're comfortable, they have amazing features, like the noise dampening when babies are crying or dogs are barking, or if you're speaking to someone they detect it and they pause your music. These this have amazing noise cancellation and bass! The battery lasts me all day at work and they never have issues with connectivity. Ease of use is perfect. Made for everyone!

Loved them for the first week that they worked. Very comfortable. Nice touch controls. After a week or so of use they stopped connecting to my devices and the touch controls were spotty at best.

This is my first experience with Google’s entry into the crowded field of earbuds, and from experience they have a solid entry. The earbuds like others come with multiple ear tips, I personally found the ones installed worked perfect for me. So good in fact, using these to cut grass in 90 degree weather and sweating like crazy, I never once had to adjust them nor had one fall out. The only time I’ve had this experience with other earbuds are ones that have the little wing tips to hold them in place or ones that fit over the ear. The one negative for me are the touch controls, though I like them, at times they can be a little to sensitive. When it comes to actually using the earbuds, the ANC on these things are first rate for certain sounds. Turning the ANC on around 6 to 10 feet from a window unit ac and a fan going it almost completely cancelled the sound from both, and this was with no music or video playing thru the earbuds. With ANC it really depends on the type of sound though, someone putting something down on a table or a television in the background I could still hear them though not as loud, but white noise type of noise these excelled at. Having Bluetooth 5.0 you don’t have to worry about out of sync audio when using them to watch video. The earbuds also have the ability to be used independent of each other for both calls and music I’m happy to say. On the sound front they deliver a clean detailed sound with just the right amount of bass right out of the box. Like other manufacturers the best experience will be if you have an Android or really a pixel, but even if you don’t these are an excellent option.

So I've been using the Pixel Buds Pro for a few weeks now, and I really like them overall. They're comfortable, they sound great, and they have a lot of cool features. DESIGN They're are sleek and stylish, with a nice, understated design. The earbuds are small and lightweight, and they fit snugly in my ears without being uncomfortable. The charging case is also compact and easy to carry around. SOUND QUALITY The sound quality is fantastic. The audio is clear and well-balanced, with a nice rich bass response. I've listened to a variety of music genres, from pop to rock to classical, and this earbuds have handled them all with ease. FEATURES One of my favorite features is the active noise cancellation. It does a great job of blocking out background noise, so I can focus on my music or podcast without distractions. I also really like the Google Assistant integration, which allows me to control my music, make calls, and get directions without having to take out my phone. BATTERY LIFE The battery life is pretty good. I can get about 5.5 hours of playback time on a single charge, which is more than enough for most of my needs. The charging case also provides an additional 20 hours of playback time, so I'm never worried about running out of battery. SOFTWARE The software is supey simple and easy to use. The Pixel Buds app allows me to customize the sound profile, adjust the active noise cancellation, and enable or disable certain features. I've also found the firmware updates to be reliable and easy to install. CONCLUSION I'm very happy with this earbuds. They're comfortable, they sound great, and they have a lot of cool features. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pair of high-quality earbuds.

I am huge headphones guy; own now at least a dozen pairs of buds, over ears and yeah - it's kind of a problem. But having really liked the Pixel Buds A, I wanted something more focused on noise cancelling and sound quality. I have Airpod Pros and those are nearly unmatched. That was until, Google released these bad boys. I picked these up and was immediately impressed with the fit and the quality. The smaller eartips fit me best, but at least you have 3 options to choose from. The sound is quite good, with lower bass tones notable here, with "End of Time" by K-391 sounding fantastic for buds this small. The ANC is good if not great, Sony and Apple still take the crown here but for Google's first attempt I am pleasantly surprised at how effective it is at cancelling out lower frequency sounds. Pairing with my Pixel 6 was easy and I did have the bug at first where touch controls wouldn't register, but unpairing and repairing fixed it straight away. Controls work well and the only thing I found fiddley we're the volume up/down swipes, often turning it up when I meant down but this is a minor quibble. The buds can take a bit of time to get set right in your ears but once you find the trick, they stay out and I walk with them in regularly with any movement of them in my ears, even while sweaty. At $199 they are a good value and easily the best Google headphones to date and if you have a Pixel or other Android phone they should be at the top of your list.
