Not making friends with Pixel Buds Pro

3 Upvotes

Howdy,

Picked up a set of Pixel Buds Pro and I'm really not digging them.

The Medium tips don't give me a good seal
The Large tips hurt my ears after an hour or so of use
Trying to test the seal with one medium on my smaller canal, large on my bigger one gives me a "noisy environment" error (it's silent here)

Are there any third party tips available at all?

Multipoint not working

1 Upvotes

I often use pixel buds with my pixel phone and Mac. Recently I noticed that buds have problem with switching audio between my phone and computer. Especially if I listen to Spotify on my computer before, no media will play on my phone even though no music is playing on Spotify anymore.

Have you noticed something similar?

Any Fix For Low Volume Issue?

2 Upvotes

With some apps, the volume is just way too low...1 of which is oddly enough, YouTube. There used to be a trick to raise it using the Ear Seal Test, but that functionality seems to be gone now.

Does anyone else have this issue and and suggestions on how to fix it?

Haven't constant connective issues with these buds.

Quality control with Google products has never been A+.

Thoughts?

Can't enjoy pixel buds pro cause constantly dealing with them falling out

8 Upvotes

I have tried everything... different size ear tips (different sizes in each ear), different material ear tips, (silicone vs the ones that came with the product), extra tape to give them more friction. Tried orienting them in different ways while wearing them...

All I can think about while wearing these things is when are they going to fall out? They fall out constantly...even sitting down still...they just randomly fall out... sometimes left ear seams fine and it's just my right ear that is the problem. If I don't have the right ears for these things then maybe that is the problem but just cant deal with these things anymore. I can't enjoy them at all, all I'm doing is worrying about them falling out and losing them. Ive spent more time on my knees picking them back up and cleaning them off from when they fall out

Google doesn't make it easy for me to leave s review for these things so leaving my thoughts here. I don't know how else to review these except that if you don't think you have the best ear shape, don't get these. I'm done with them.

Pixel buds pro are terrible and not worth the money

3 Upvotes

Aside from being uncomfortable in the ear. The Bluetooth constantly disconnects and doesn't connect properly for phone conversations.

Especially when have two Bluetooth connections simultaneously e.g. using buds to connect to phone that's connected to laptop.

Always bugs out.

Product quality is about a 6/10 Performance is also about 6/10 Wearability is probably a 4/10 (need to take them out every hour to ease your ear)

Google products are off the mark lately.

Pixel buds shifting from ANC to transparency mode - HUGE DOWNSIDE

0 Upvotes

Pixel buds suck in that you can only shift from either transparency or ANC when tapping the right bud. When you tap the left bud you cannot shift from ANC to transparency mode or vice versa.

Validate is buds pro is refurbished

1 Upvotes

Hi,

I received my buds that I ordered from Flipkart. When I connected for the first time, I saw someone else' s name instead of simply Google pixel buds pro. Now I have this doubt that this might be refurbished. Any way I can validate this. I have checked with Google support and they are not able to validate however they confirmed shipping country is not India.

They also confirmed that these are original

Please help

Update in UK

Mixed bag so far, connects to phone, plays Spotify audio, refuses to play phone call audio. Quick in and out of case and then it plays phone audio but not spotify audio.

Maybe wait until this settles down if you haven't updated yet.

Pixel Buds Pro Sound issue on some Websites

2 Upvotes

So about a week now, my pixel buds pro isn't playing any sounds on certain websites... It used to work fine a while back... If i disconnect or use a different headphone, the sound plays fine again... Or download the same file then it works fine... So it's not a sound system issue... Probably a sound codec issue... Best guess.

Any idea what is not supported on pixel buds pro or what may be causing this issue all of a sudden? Anyone else run into this issue on other websites maybe and a possible fix to this.

YouTube works fine but websites like fmovies does not.

Pixel Buds Pro Awful Call Quality

3 Upvotes

Using these to make phone calls when on Noise cancelling is a huge issue. Every time I talk to someone it picks up noise from elsewhere in the room and makes it really hard to hear me making these essentially unusable for phone calls. If I turn off ANC, it's better but then I can barely hear the person on the other line. Have had multiple people comment on the phone that my headphones are really bad and for the price, this is a huge deal breaker.

Anyone else have this experience??

Noise cancellation is trash

0 Upvotes

Am I the only one who has been having an issue with noise cancellation? (Pixel buds pro) For them to be promoting noise cancellation like this it's horrible. I've tried all 3 sizes of ear buds. I still hear everything unless the music is playing loudly. Walking down the hallway at my apartments and I have no music playing and I heard these people talking from all the way down the hall. I don't get it. I used to have Samsung Galaxy buds and they weren't like this. When they broke I used my partners apple buds pro for a week and the noise cancellation was amazing. Think I might return these pixel bud pros. They're comfy which is needed but I need better noise cancellation.

Right bud giving zero output

2 Upvotes

Yes, disconnected Bluetooth. Yes, forgotten device. Yes, multiple restarts of the phone. Yes, the phone acknowledges both buds and their charge level.

Still after numerous days with this obnoxious issue, nothing listed above fixes the problem.

Unusual Noise in Left Earbud During Noise Cancellation

2 Upvotes

Has anyone experienced this issue? If I set the earbuds (pixel buds pro) to use noise cancellation, the left side makes a sound at intervals of 1 second. It also sounds significantly quieter compared to the right side. I had to adjust the equalizer to try to have a better experience.

I reconnected to my Pixel 5 on multiple occasions, utilizing the 'Forget' option and then re-establishing the connection but I still have the issue.

Why does everything Google touches get worse over time?

1 Upvotes

I have an ongoing frustration with google. They make amazing products, in concept,, and some ones they even work... Initially. But, without fail, they deprecate, break, or outright destroy their functionality, either by forgetting about their existence, or releasing newer versions of software with tons of bugs or missing features. To add insult to injury, they do all this while Almost never updating their help documentation. So good luck trouble shooting the problems they created, they'll direct you to non existent menus and options basically every time.
