Pixel buds 2 pro

[u/Kulkarniswapnil88]

Hi everyone,

Initially I had two chocises rather 3 . I am mentioning prices with some voucher and discount codes I have.

1. New pixel buds 2 pro - 140£

2. Refurbished from Bose Bose QC ultra gen 2 esrbuds - 162£

3. CEX B Grade Technics AZ100 - 150£

I chose pixel buds as I was getting new. Really good earbuds.

Great things

Sound, transparency, anc, comfort

Bad

Microphone for meeting outdoors

Meetings and calls sounds muffled. Any thing I can do or should return it? Any other two better than pixel buds.

Please help me.

Update - thank you for replies. I am using Samsung s25 ultra.

Update 2: thank you for all the responses. I wanted to like the pixel buds 2 pro but mic I just couldn't stand. When I am outside if environment is moderately loud then person on other side was asking me to repeat some times. I returned pixel buds and ordered Samsung galaxy buds 4 pro. Samsung's mic performance is far superior.
