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

  • Despite the promise of helpful voice assistant features, with its Pixel Buds, Google combines an uncomfortable design, mediocre performance, and a high price tag for an unappealing pair of wireless headphones...

  • Google Assistant is fast and helpful, Pairing process with Android phones is easy, Tap-controls are straightforward
  • Design isn't truly wireless, Sound quality is middling, Google Translate can be awkward and requires Pixel 2, Carrying case is large and fiddly
  • MORE Google Pixel 2 ReviewThe Pixel Buds are an unexpectedly muted point in Google's 2017 device line-up. In fact, it's hard to escape the idea that they were rushed out to compete with AirPods, and in an attempt to assuage the complaints of those missing...

  • small, stable, open fit with eartip, good sound, good case, solid battery life, great gestures, Fast Pair, Google Assistant, USBC, wireless charging, AAC
  • not much sound isolation, no noise cancelling, can't connect to two devices at the same time, no aptX, stabiliser wing not adjustable
  • The second-generation Google Pixel Buds are a significant improvement on the first with a fairly unique combination of an open-air-like fit with the full sound that requires a silicone ear tip.The combination will please those that hate the “plugged in” f...

  • When I saw the Pixel Buds announced at last years I/O event, I was very interested to see just how good they were for music quality. However, most of all I wanted to use the built-in Google Assistant features.Whilst the instant translation feature wowed m...

  • While the earbuds only offer five hours of listening time, they come with a charging case which can be used to prolong the listening time to up to 24 hours, Despite being made by Google, they actually work with both Android devices and iPhones when used w
  • The sound quality was disappointing, there's plenty of treble but a lack of deep bass and bight high notes, The battery life without the charging case is disappointing at just five hours
  • Those with access to Google Assistant on their smartphones will get the most out of these in-ear wireless headphones. Comfortable and simple to set up but lacking in sound quality, Google's first attempt at headphones is valiant but falls a little short...
