Google Pixel Buds Pro 👉 https://mikeobrienmedia.com/Pixel-Bud...
So I've been testing the Pixel Buds Pro pretty intensely and there is a lot to like about them, but they're not perfect. Let me tell you about the sound, ANC, mics, design, comfort, and more.

ADDITIONAL REVIEW NOTES:
FEATURES:
Google uses a lot of custom stuff, from chips to drivers, to silicone, and it is all to achieve what they believe to be the best pro earbuds you can buy
Multipoint connection
Google Assistant integration
11/31 hrs battery! - 7 with ANC
Eartip seal checker
If you tap and hold for a second and then let go without saying anything to Google, she will read your notifications to you
Find my earbuds

DESIGN:

Compare to older Pixel Buds
Chunkier
I love the physical button to force pairing
Wireless charging
Proximity sensors
IPX4

FIT/COMFORT:
Pressure relief with active pressure sensors inside
These go deep in your ear canal
These are a very oval shaped earbud without many orienting features, so it is easy to put them in your ears incorrectly and have bad ANC or fit
During a workout, these stayed in for me, except for the left which stayed in much better than the AirPods Pro, but for some reason, my left ear is not friends with earbuds that lack a wingtip


CONTROLS:
I love that there are swipe vol controls but why are they opposite? Up/down works as well as forward back


WORKOUTS:
No wing tips, but they go deep in the ear
Kind of like Jabra Elite 85t vibes imo


SOUND:
Plenty of big bass - pretty tight and punchy
Slightly sibilant
Warm and powerful with lively sound with that larger 11mm custom driver
I would love to EQ this, but I believe the EQ is coming soon? It is not in the app from what I can tell. And never buy something on the promise that a feature will be added

Too afraid to love you by the black keys sounds great. Thumpy baseline and simple stage

In logic's album vinyl days, the persistent snare beat is too forward and eclipses a lot of the song

Showdown by stick figure is a warmer reggae song and it sounds really nice with these buds

I would say these are much better than Google’s last two iterations of the Pixel Buds, but not quite as good as the Beoplay EX or Momentum TW3’s

Lacks some low level detail on the high end
Really, my beef is with the cymbals/snare and other details like that
In summary, these are not bad, but for $200, I want better detail.

These are sort of the opposite of the AirPods Pro. The AP Pros have great detail but lack bass, and these have nice bass but lack some high end detail.

ANC:
Not good if there is any wind
Good for cutting out A/C, dishwasher, or other general sounds
Pretty decent for cutting out a drum set
I expect algorithms to improve with updates from Google
Probably not quite as good as Sony or Apple, but better than some

Transparency mode sounds a bit robotic, and again wind is an issue.
Not as good as the AirPods Pro


APP:
These will work with iPhone, but you can’t get the app

THE GOOD:
Multipoint
Great battery
Strong bass
Lots of Google features

THE BAD:
Sound could be more detailed
No advanced CODECs
Fit can be finicky
No app for Apple
