Google Pixel Buds Pro 2

A strong generational step up with a lighter, more comfortable build, better noise control and long battery life, making them an easy pick for Pixel owners despite an unfinished Gemini experience.

The reviewer calls them among the best premium earbuds for Android, praising fit, noise blocking and calls, and considers the higher price justified.

Described as the most complete Android earbuds so far, with solid sound, noise cancelling and battery, held back slightly by a loose fit and poor spatial audio.

An early hands-on that finds a big improvement over the first model, with great comfort, strong sound and appealing Gemini features, recommended especially for the Pixel ecosystem.

Excellent small earbuds with standout noise cancelling and sound, and an obvious choice for Pixel users, with only minor gripes about spatial audio and call clarity.

Lab-style testing finds balanced sound, a comfortable secure fit and above-average battery, making them a go-to for Android users, though not cheap and with limits for iPhone owners.

The reviewer finds the earbuds cute and comfortable for Google-phone users, but sees them as outclassed on sound and value by Samsung's rival buds at a similar cost.
