Very good all around. A little hard to keep in ears during a workout though.

The perfect buds to take advantage of all the features of the google phones

Sound was ok and I couldn't get them to stay in my ear. I returned them, looking for better ear buds.

Loce these more than my last pair so far. I Highly recommend this brand

Terrible battery life - less than 4 hours of mostly stand by time! And terrible support. I have held on phone for Best Buy at least six hours total and NEVER reached a human. Last purchase I EVER make at Best Buy.

Great experience so far. Love the volume touch control on the bud

Excellent quality and material , perfect gift for the holidays

The case's battery drains really fast. At best, you get up to two hours of listening time(fully charged) and around 3 hours with the charging case. They get disconnected frequently for no reason and they can feel quite invasive and uncomfortable in the ear. The active noise cancellation leaves a lot to be desired.

Best true wireless ever. Big fan of Google products.

Love it, just get them stop being lame. Worth the money.

They don’t fit. No matter what size of ear buds I use, they do not stay in my ear. If I used aftermarket ones, they don’t fit in the case!

It's nice that Android finally got its version of AirPods Pro, but the transparency mode on these earbuds is a huge disappointment. In a typical noisy situation (e.g. in an indoor mall), the noise gets amplified while you can't hear the person standing right next to you yelling.

Those are the worst one I owned bad sound quality for me everything else is great.

They are terrible. The background noise is so loud to the person on the other end of the call that they can't hear me

Could not reliably connect to samsung smart tv. In the few times it did connect, worked OK. Waste of time/money.

Google Pixel phones have a new companion earbud set that delivers truly stellar audio. Initial setup with my Pixel 4 XL was simple and intuitive. The system-level app on my phone established a connection quickly and initiated a comprehensive control panel to control earbud functions. And while these earbuds are dialed-in to be supported in full by Google Pixel devices, they still function beautifully with non-Google Bluetooth 4.0+ devices. Note: there is a small button on the back of the holding/charging case that MUST be pressed to pair this device with non-Google Bluetooth devices - that is a simple step that was not immediately obvious to me during my initial testing - pairing with my Google Pixel resulted directly from opening the case. These earbuds have active noise cancellation technology - and to implement this, there needs to be some form of sound isolation. These earbuds are in-ear sealed inserts (as opposed to over-ear studio-style headphones). This set comes with three different size rubber inner-ear plugs and the Pixel app can tell if the seal is sufficiently formed for you to experience the full range of noise cancellation. And the noise cancellation, in practice, is outstanding here. With just a prolonged tap to the earbud, you can experience nearly every sound in your listening environment vanish from your awareness. Worth noting here that in the absence of nearly all ambient noise, you become more sensitive to digital artifacts that are introduced in the process of streaming music and its transmission via Bluetooth - in some quieter passages of music, you'll be aware of the limitations of current streaming/transmission technology, but that's not a criticism of this amazing set (just a warning). Once you are comfortable with the position of the earbuds in your ear, controlling devices is very simple (Pixel and non-Pixel alike) - volume up/down by swiping forward/back on the earbuds, track forward/back with taps, track start/stop, and mode of Active Noise Cancellation. Paired with my Pixel, I can answer/reject calls (with incredibly clear sound on calls!) and I can access Google assistant if I want. Both earbuds are touch-sensitive. All of that is nice. But it's ultimately the sound here that is the selling point and I think Google has really asserted some dominance here - surprisingly clean and clear bass, excellent clarity over a broad spectrum without ANYTHING sounding like it has been altered for effect, and these tiny buds sport a welcome dynamic range that can even handle the subtleties of classical music. As with most truly wireless earbuds with a case, this case serves as a supplemental charger - the buds can be depleted then charged again via the case without being connected to an external charge. The external charger here is a USB-C charger (the specifications state that the case can charged using a Qi-certified charger but my insanely cheap charger isn't having it). My only complaint so far involved updating the firmware (definitely something that required pairing with a Pixel phone!). This is a new product and I think you can expect frequent updates. My initial update explained that it might take up to 10 minutes to process - and implied that an interrupted download would simply resume where it left off - and both implications were wrong. My initial update took nearly two hours to succeed; my downloads failed consistently and were always restarted from the beginning. When I finally completed my update, I had access to a feature called Volume EQ where you can choose to have low-volume audio processed with an audio frequency curve that helps your hearing maintain a consistent experience of sound at reduced volume. Note - release materials suggest that additional updates are in the works including a spatial audio feature (in the fall?) that will improve immersive experiences when watching video content on Pixel phones. I love these earbuds. They are very comfortable and they give me an incredible experience on my Pixel and top-notch sound on my Bluetooth devices (specifically my beloved 6th generation Ipod Touch). Sound is, ultimately, the most important consideration on these devices and I wholeheartedly recommend these as contenders for the top of the heap.

Sound quality is average at most for music. Memory foam tips would have been better for better fit. Fit and stability is an issue for me. May not be the case with others.

Pre-ordered the day they allowed prep-orders and didnt get until 4 days after release. Even had ro argue with BB CS who wanted to change the shipping date to 8/12.

Google made a great pair of earbuds to rival its closest competitor and delivered everything anyone could've asked for. Hardware: Starting with the case, it isn't anything brand new we haven't seen but it checks all the boxes. It is small, charged wirelessly, holds more than 20hrs of extra battery life, and can be located within the Google settings if you misplace them. The earbuds themselves have a tight fit creating a seal into the ear canal. This is for you to get the optimal amount of noise cancelation without having to crank up the volume to 100%. They are comfortable for about an hour and a half but I started getting some pain on my left ear around 1.5 hours in. Software: This is where Google differentiates itself from the competitors. It is by far the best experience I've had with a pair of earbuds. I am still on the Pixel 4 but connecting was a breeze. It instantly recognized my device and pairing took less than 5 seconds. The app itself is downloaded from the play store but lives inside the settings menu on Android. From there, you can change your touch settings that control volume, toggling between ambient mode and noise cancelation inputs, as well as check how good of an ear tip seal you have. You also have the ability to pair 2 devices to this headset in case you also have a laptop you want to pair them too which I did immediately when I noticed you can do this. Another interesting software feature is called Volume EQ which balances your bass, mids, and highs regardless of what volume you decide to listen to so that you get an all around balanced experience. It is no longer uncomfortable to listen to music at 100% volume in a loud environment. The sound is still great with no crazy distortion and uncomfortable sharpness. Sound Experience: I have no complaints about the sound signature. Everything sounds great from all genres of music as well as watching movies and taking calls. The bass isn't obnoxious and the music sounds as intended. Noise cancelation works fantasticly. You can completely isolate yourself from the outside world and just escape for a bit. This is some of the best noise cancelation tech I have experienced. Ambient mode is also really insanely good. However they do it, it is amazing. I can have a conversation with someone while still listening to music. The only caveat is that you'd have to be listening at less than 50% volume for this to really function and have a conversation. Anything above that it was still useful when I was walking my dog and I needed to listen for cars when crossing the street or even cyclist trying to pass. Overall, Google made an awesome pair of earbuds with this pro version. I am not going back to anything else anytime soon for everyday casual listening. I will say though that I will stick to dedicated workout earbuds for exercise only because I sweat a lot. Google does claim to have IPX4 rating on these but I'd rather not risk the damage.
