Why has no one said this: it looks kinda looks like a egg
What I however most love about the Pixel Buds is, that they actually got good software updates. For example: We now actually have an EQ and a Bass Booster in the Settings-App for them. They also fixed some bugs and I don't know, if I am forgetting something here
4:20 You Just hold and immediately start talking to the assistant. Hold and then Release w/o talking is another shortcut to read your Messages.
I've been using my Almost Black buds for about a week and I'm more than happy with them. Discreet and stylish, they work amazingly well. Perfect? No, there's a major hiss when music is stopped or ended. It's a reason why I stop and charge them after a while.

Never buy anything from Google! My buds are defective, the left drains so quickly it is unusable, and Google says its just buyers remorse and won't do anything to rememdy the problem.
I bought them. Right after I pulled them out the box, my Pixel detected them just fine. However, the left earbud wasn't working. After chatting with people from Google's Customer Service, I had to send them back and asked for a refund. The sound was good and the functions were nice, however this is just not worth the price. It's quite a gamble. Reviewers said great things about these but forums with costumers say the opposite. Quite dissapointing.
I got my Pixel Buds today and I'm a bit skeptical about this one. Everything is great so far except for the battery. I started with 100% on both sides and after exactly 1 hour of continuous music I see my left bud has 64% and my right bud has 56% left. Looks odd to me to be honest. And I heard this was supposed to last 5 hours on continuous music. Any Pixel Buds user can help me out here please?
Available: Nowhere
He is sometimes a real jerk
I'm not going to buy them until they get noise cancellation and longer battery life and higher volume level!!
I wish you did the mic quality for calls. Wondering if they are good for work.
$180..? Now they're $239😑
Hi, do you guys know if there is still this volume issue? I heard that these buds are lacking on volume
I had to return my pixel buds gen 2. The audio was cutting off with my pixel 3 xl, and that is unacceptable with $200 earphones. Aesthetically they were awesome, and in house were awesome. Just couldnt run outside with them. Google Support tried for 1.5hr to help me debug with no success. :(((
Are these better than Apples Airpods?
I just recently got a pair and had to get a replacement and now I'm gonna get a refund because apparently they have a huge problem with them abruptly disconnecting and reconnecting which makes it sound like you lost sound for a brief second which has been my experience with both of the pairs I had which is sad cause I really enjoyed them
My daily earbuds are the airpod pros for calls and the Sony mx4 for content/music. It’s just the call quality on the airpod pros is more clear even without canceling the background sound.
Thank you man great video
SHOULD HAVE Noise cancelling is important outdoor as some people dont want outside noise while listening to the good music ! 😭
I need to find out more information about the case
7:21 When he said they sounded distant, the background music sounded quite distant and faded out slightly, and when he said they were bassy, the bass kicked in Idk if that's coincidence or just really smart editing
Got nothing " right"! Samsung Buds + and the new Samsung Buds live trounce Pixel Buds!

@David John Tough I literally got my pair this morning, they released an update fixing the issues and added a bass boost option, it's great.

Nah
Love the indepth dive you do on most of the features but there is no mention of call quality, this is reallyimportantto me. I bought a pair of Bluetooth head phones, no one can understand me. I end up having to take them off and disconnect them to talk on the phone.
James: 420🤣 69✌️
Disable battery optimization
*correction , there is an eq for pixel buds .. pixel automatically installs an pixel bud app which does the stuff
Can you stop comparing any buds on the market to the airbuds?
there Bluetooth is not good
Thumbs up for frequency response
Have had mine three months and I love them!
Returned mine. And the second pair. Terrible high-pitched whine in both ears. Very disappointed.
Penis's, 420 and 69.
I really hope that Sennheiser, Anker, and other true wireless earbud companies use Google's Smart Pair. I would say that I hope Samsung does it, but we all know they won't
This was a completely different vibe to the oneplus buds review....
Does google update there phones like apple does theres??
I'd be curious on how well they do during workouts. I had a pair of earbuds with the touch controls and as sweat would drip down, the controls would activate. It would keep turning the volume up to max.
Dude i didn't wanna comment that... But you are hypocrite too... Doesn't mean any hate... But same scenario on two different brands and two different opinions you have got... OnePlus tws: James's earphones .... What the hell why are you naming the earphone... Blah blah... that's irritating... what if you sell it etc etc Google's tws : James's earphones ... Ahh that's so sweet
can someone send a link to the earbuds pls??
24 hours is pathetic. I don't know, maybe I'm spoiled by running Lypertek TEVIs for a year now, but I charge the case once a week with near constant use.
Why is there no review on AirPods Pro?
The Oppo buds are half the price, with noise cancelling and better battery life, not sure about the sound
I've had these since the day they came out and I can honestly say it was an amazing purchase. Everything just works together as a package so well and you don't realize how nice it is to have access to the Google assistant hands free until you have it. Bravo Google
How do i block channels from popping up ever again, this James fella is insufferable.
Mentos buds. Just chew it James. Then swallow it together with how you always compare it to Airpods.
No more earbud/headphone reviews!
Phone was out of focus when James was talking about the bluetooth screen in the beginning
Soundcore Liberty 2 review coming?
Why make so many channels?
I think I'll stick to my soundcore liberty 2 pro's
Listening on my Pixel Buds right now. Had them for over 2 months now and love them!
Maybe 2 years later we can see Google Pixel Buds PRO with active noise canceling.
Would love to see the Jabra Elite 75t in the mix with the comparisons.
Honestly my favorite thing about these is how small they are

Same. The super profile is such a deal breaker for me with wireless ear buds. Can’t stand gaudy wireless ear buds.
Anyone else think they look like mentos
he acts too much like lius :/
These earbuds emit a hissing sound, but if you are partially deaf you won't hear it.
But why were they released if they have a hissing problem? Does everyone at Google have poor hearing?
if you loose the case are you basically fucked
Basically a more expensive Samsung buds
I like James, but the way he talks with his hands is very distracting.
Buy Anker's Soundcore Liberty 2 or Liberty 2 Pro instead. The google pixel buds are too expensive for their limited feature set, and battery life is short imo.
Lost me with the non noise cancelling
Would still prefer that they were connected by a string, so you don't lose them that easily and can hang them around the neck when you need to take them out to communicate with someone.
Best review I've seen. Thanks for the details
galaxy buds > pixel buds
The pixel buds are hot garbage! Mine were a technological disaster! Apparently some people have received a set of good well functioning buds while others like me received a pile of dog food. Google just cannot get their act together. And I've been going through a nightmare of a process with them to get a replacement set of buds or a refund of my money.
No anc, no aptx, no audio transparency at this pricetag, announced six months before launch, that's like 5 years of outdated in tech time. No thx.
Guys wait for galaxy buds live, they come out august 5th
Great review, about to buy the airpods right away
Is Google actually capable of implementing active noise cancellation by feature drops? Cuz ANC only needs mics to recognize the environment or nah?
Good timing I'm in the market for good headphone pods, for use with my android and also pairing with a surface laptop for a work from home job I'm starting next week 😊
I wish you tried instant translation... That kind of what I been waiting for decade...

The thing is that it still relies on Google Translate technology which hasn't improved radically since it's integration into the initial Google buds (LTT did a review with English to Mandarin with Dennis)
why not compare with galaxy buds+? android to android?
"Google finally paid me enough to say this"
I really don't care if its similar or not to the airpods no one cares about the airpods Is it better then the galaxy buds or not Galaxy buds/+ are the best options for Android so far so is it better ?

I agree Galaxy Buds+ seem to offer some of the best bang for the buck, but I must confess I'm not a huge fan of their design or the low IPX2 rating. Personally, I ended up buying Anker's Souncore Liberty 2 because I like their design more, the case extends battery life further and reviews seem to indicate they might have better sound quality (though that might be a matter of taste). Still, I really dislike the AirPods because they are so uncomfortable with their all-plastic design, they fall out of my ears and they don't sound like $200 earbuds.
Go for a walk and see if it starts cutting out like everyone else. :/
Do they come with head sets in the box
I've just got my new Pixel buds and I'd like to correct one small thing from this video The Google assistant tap on the headphones doesn't always give you the time and notification report. If you tap and hold for a sec, then let go without saying anything, you get the report. If you tap and hold, wait a sec for the beep, say what you want and THEN let go, she doesn't give you your notifications. Otherwise great review and I love the Pixel Buds. I also love controlling my lights like an FBI agent.
I like the AirPod Pro because they are not so big in the ear, and the stem is nostalgic. Most of the stemless Android buds look to me like people are putting large marbles in their ears.
I barely got 1 hour battery life. I loved everything about them besides battery life. I had to return them.
Ordered a pair of the Pixel Buds 2 and they are just pure garbage just like all the comments say, WTF James are you giving good reviews to shit products for cash now? I only ordered these because of your video and the trust you had garnered from your previous videos you and Linus both. Your going to hurt your credibility such a shame.
that table sure looks 4k. not sure about the phone's focus though
Truly wireless is a mistake
These buds are pure crap. They constantly randomly disconnect. I literally just had them do it and completely become inoperable refusing to connect back to my phone
WE DID IT BOISS
Would definitely like to see another set of the cheap earbuds with some Kz and haylou price range stuff just a thought
Idk man.. everybody still trying to "get it right" Samsung buds literally didn't change the pod shape or case form factor in the second version. They know what works they just gave it hardware to match airports pro, for cheaper, and sooner
Lol technical marvel in his hands but a 3 second delay to turn off the music automatically is an issue
well, they are in-ear, which is total deal-braker for me
Brilliantly engineered paperweight. Still waiting for my refund. These things disconnect when you move your head. Screw that.
you didnt test the translator... one of the biggest selling points of this.

They tested it with the original buds, and honestly, the technology hasn't changed much since. Live translation just isn't here yet (as cool and useful as it would be to have), and its accuracy depends on your phrasing, word choice, and which languages you are using. It's all the same tech as google translate's live conversation feature.
Apple now has 10th gen chipsets for the MacBook Air Google may buy DELL, i found an Easter egg
The fact that it comes with a “how to pair” instructions tells me how far ahead Apple is.

If you are using them with other Apple devices... Apple's AirPods are equally as finicky over a standard Bluetooth connection when connecting to Android or Windows devices. It's a lot easier to establish wireless connections and integration when you control the entire ecosystem. That said, I'm sure the experience as an iPhone user is great, which is why people pay extra for something that "just works".
Would love to see best headphones under $100 similar to your best budget earbuds video.
this review feels like a google employee took james as a hostage and is making him review these for his own sake
$239.00 lol yea right.
Only problem with pixel buds are the constant sound drops. I returned mine because of it. The issues have been ongoing since launch wanf Google still hasn't fixed it
GTFO, no active noise canceling for $240, hard pass.

They are $180 (usd), but I agree it's still too much.
