The editors liked
Translation feature works
Decent battery life
Cute little soft case
Made for folks who still like earbuds (how many are left?)
Battery performance isn't bad
The Google Pixel Buds are lightweight wireless earphones that offer a relatively comfortable fit and decent sound in non-noisy environments. They wrap up nicely to fit in a very compact charging case that delivers multiple extra charges on the go. Their t
The editors didn't like
Translation doesn't always work
Poor ergonomics
Quickly uncomfortable
Volume differences are crazy
Low to high
With little in between
Controls are super fussy
Translation feature seems fiddly at best
Storage of the earbuds is specific to one method of winding them up
Expensive
Their open design lets in a lot of ambient sound. The "real-time" translation feature is only available to Pixel phone owners
But isn't a big leap beyond the existing Translate app. Bluetooth pairing can be more cumbersome than it should be

Abstract: All photos: Adam Clark EstesThere was always something off about the Pixel Buds. Google released the smart, wireless headphones a full year after Apple released the AirPods. But the Pixel Buds aren't exactly wireless, and they're not exactly smart, either...

Great build materials, Playback controls are smooth, Google Assistant notifications work as advertised, Great connection strength and easy pairing with an Android device (5.0 or above), Quick charging
Terrible isolation, The charging case is nice, but putting them back in is a mess, Battery life is subpar, The adjustable loop needs adjusting with basically every use, Sound quality isn't up to snuff with other wireless earbuds
If you're thinking of getting the Pixel Buds, just don't. They're not a bad pair of earbuds, but they're overpriced and imperfect. At this point, you're better off just waiting for Google to release the new true wireless Pixel Buds...
