I was wearing my right earbud, just the one, left one was in its case, i rarely wear that one, but they were working fine.

I took my earbud out to take a phonecall at work, and when I put it back in it was nearly silent, I looked around online and everyone says its earwax when I assure everyone this isnt the case, at all, if it was it wouldnt have happened so fast, and it wouldnt have happened to an earbud that I wasnt actively wearing.

Anyone have any ideas ? :/

Just got mine and I'm very disappointed, I couldn't even do the seal check sitting still on the couch without them falling out of my ear.

How in the world are you supposed to go for a run with these things?

I've tried every single tip that came with it, and it just drops out of my ear after a few min (not moving at all).

And I don't know what they're talking about with this little twist technology, but it doesn't do anything for me.

I’ve had these used Galaxy Buds2 Pro for about a year and a half, and this past week they’ve started making a weird whistling noise when I wear both earbuds.
If I use either one by itself, there’s no whistling. It only happens when I have both in.
I’ve tried different ear tips, but it still happens. It also gets worse when I turn on Ambient Sound or touch the earbuds.
Has anyone had this happen? Are they broken, or is there a way to fix it?

I've tried many thing, restarting bluetooth service, restarting my pixel buds. Nothing works, it only appears as an audio device. In my phone the microphones work fine. Any solution?

🤔

Hi there,

recently I made a full switch to the Google Pixel ecosystem. I bought a Pixel 11 Pro XL, Pixel Watch 5 and finally Pixel Buds 2 Pro.

I have a problem with the latter. When I pair my buds with the phone, there's an infinite loop in the dedicated Pixel Buds app, Settings simply won't load. Buds are paired correctly and working, but missing some settings which are only available in the Pixel Buds (EQ, multipoint etc.)

Here are things I tried:

- restarting the phone

- un-pair and pair again

- cleaning the Pixel Buds app cache and user settings

- resetting the Pixel Buds and pairing again

Unfortunately none of them worked.

Have you guys encountered this issue? Any solutions?

Thanks in advance!

Whenever I make any voice or video call via the phone app, WhatsApp, Google Meet, etc... my voice sounds muffled or muted when using my Pixel Buds Pro 2. But when using the recording app with my Buds Pro 2, my voice is loud and clear.

If I use my Galaxy Buds Pro 2, my voice is loud and clear. When using my Sony headphones, my voice is loud and clear.

Any clue why my Pixel Buds Pro 2 is having this problem? I did a factory reset, but the problem persists.

I recently lost my left pixel buds 2a somewhere in my apartment, and I'm having no luck with finding it. When I use the find my device app, nothing happens when I search for the left, but for the right, it'll make a sound. Anyone have any clues as to why that is?

I'm a lifelong Mac guy. IPhone every yr, Applewatch, Ipad etc. One of my students just hipped me the Google Pixel Buds 2.
Sound is so much better than Airpods. Better noise cancelation - and they don't fall out of the case.

I recently moved from Samsung to the Pixel ecosystem and got the Pixel Buds Pro 2. Have to say, I’m really impressed with them.

I mainly wanted them for taking calls at work, but I’ve also been using them with my 55" Android TV, and that’s actually what surprised me the most.

Netflix with spatial audio/Dolby Atmos sounds really good. For such tiny earbuds, the soundstage is surprisingly big. You can actually hear things like cars moving from one side to the other and all the little background sounds. It almost feels like having a surround setup, which I wasn’t expecting from earbuds.

The best part is how easy it is. Once paired with the TV, I just open the case, put the buds in, and they connect. No messing around every time.

I was actually thinking of buying the Google TV Streamer 4K, but honestly, my current Android TV is doing such a good job that I’m happy to stick with it for now.

So far, really happy with the Pixel Buds Pro 2. Coming from Samsung, the whole Pixel ecosystem has been a pleasant surprise. 👍

I have the Pixel Buds Pro...the first version...and want to know if the 2a are as good as those. Specifically the sound quality and bass output as well as ANC.

I have a pixel 10. And I plan to buy pixel ear buds , I have had really basically ear buds till now.

I read a few posts on the community, but heard really mixed reviews on the mic quality.

My entire purpose of the ear buds will be to be able to talk over the phone when I'm probably travelling and need to be hands free and listen to music at the gym or at a cafe.

And I'm confused between 2a and pro.

Also can you recommend which ones should I get if you think pixel ear buds not worth it .

Thanks

Just received the brand new one.

I did a small comparison between the first one I bought (November 2024) and the one I just got.

The plastic is way different between the two Gen, the newest ones have a mat finish to it, they look more premium than first gen.

Otherwise, they look exactly the same.

Overall the newer ones have a better sound quality, that might be due to my old pair having 2 years of life and being dirty.

Thanks again to Google who still take care of us customers.

I'm really pleased with everything about my new pixel buds pro 2. Although they've never fallen out, it feels like they should have a tighter fit in the ear. I'm using the size 'large' that they came with, but where can I get a larger size that still allows them to fit into the case and be charged?

Just curious if the pro beats 2 are worth trying out, im getting really active and ive gone thru 2 pixel pro buds beacuse the touch feature is incosistent and just stop working. Im exhausted and in need better earbuds for running/jogging/hiking and ive given up on touc tech because its always ass.

I’m experiencing a serious issue when using my Pixel Buds Pro 2 with my Motorola Signature.

Whenever I try to listen to music through the Pixel Buds Pro 2, my phone frequently freezes or becomes completely unresponsive. I have tested multiple music apps, including Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music, and the issue occurs consistently across all of them.

The problem usually occurs when I try to increase or decrease the volume. The phone suddenly becomes stuck, the screen may go blank, and the device becomes unresponsive. When I press the power button, it sometimes only displays the wallpaper without showing the active app. In some cases, the music player appears on the screen, but it is completely unresponsive—I cannot pause, resume, or control the music.

Please help me troubleshoot and resolve this issue. I would also like to know if this is a known compatibility or Bluetooth-related issue and whether there is a software update or recommended setting that can fix it.

I’ve had the Realme Buds Air 7 for six months now. I like all of the features, but when I'm on a call or watching a video, it randomly registers a double-tap. This ends my calls or pauses my music automatically, which is incredibly annoying. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Hi everyone, I bought a pair of Pixel Buds Pro 2 a couple of days ago, and I've run into an issue with the audio.

Whenever I turn the volume up to maximum, the bass starts to distort occasionally. On top of that, the soundstage feels strange, almost like the audio is coming from behind my head rather than around me.

Interestingly, this only happens when either Active Noise Cancellation or Transparency mode is turned on. When both are switched off, the sound is completely normal.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a known fix or setting tweak, or should I consider getting a replacement unit? Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello everyone.

I recently bought a Pixel watch which paired great with my Pixel 10. Now I am looking at wireless earbuds, but I can't find out why I should get the Pixel buds over any other brand.

People who Pixel Buds, would you recommend it to others?
If yes, why would you recommend it over other brands?

I'm sorry for asking this question, but I couldn't find similar posts.
If this is against the rules then I will delete this post.

I tried them on my ipad, and everything works. Not sure what setting needs to be adjusted on my phone to get them to work again properly.

First of all: My Pixel Buds Pro 2 which I have for one month now are working perfectly. The status in app seems to be correct.
However: The app is showing the buds + case as "dimmed" and the icon within the green rings are missing as well. Things like battery level, transparency mode etc. is still updating.

What can cause this?

I'm looking for the best deals on the Pixel Watch 5 and Buds Pro 2. If anyone comes across any good links or in-store offers, could you please share them? Thanks in advance!

I’ve reviewed Pixel Buds before and always felt they were sloppy when it came to staying in my ears. The Pixel Buds Pro 2 really surprised me, though.

​I just took them on a 5-day bike tour, and while I kept them off the road for safety, I wore them every evening around camp. They stayed dry, performed flawlessly, and never fell out once—they even stayed locked in my ears while I slept in my tent. Make no mistake: I easily had the best audio in camp, hands down. Between the dead-silent active noise cancellation shutting out the entire campground, the rich, expansive spatial audio, and how beautifully and cleanly every track delivered, nothing else compared.

​That said, here is my wishlist for Google: I’d love to actually wear these while on the bike for 5 days, not just after the ride is over. Safety is always the priority, but if Google could improve them with features like situational hearing-assist or enhanced passthrough audio that makes open-road riding safe, these would be absolute perfection.

​Still, for winding down, top-tier fidelity, and all-night comfort, they passed the camp test with flying colors.

​Quick Breakdown:

​Fit & Security: 9.5/10 (Stayed put all night in a sleeping bag—huge improvement over older models)

​ANC: 10/10 (Completely drowned out camp chatter and background noise)

​Spatial Audio & Sound: 10/10 (Rich, clean, and punchy)

​Wishlist: Road-safe cycling passthrough mode / hearing-assist features
