AH Award: Best Headphones – Google Pixel Buds Pro 2

Google delivered the most “Pro” earbuds on the market

We’ve seen some amazing TWS earbuds released throughout the year, but which ones are the best? Well, that honor belongs to Google’s most recent earbuds. The company released the Pixel Buds Pro 2, and these give the top earbuds on the market a run for their money.

Starting off with the acoustics, Google redesigned the internal chamber, which improves the acoustics overall. The company is already using some high-quality drivers to push the sound into your ears. They give you some stellar audio with deep bass, detailed mids, and crisp treble. This means that everything you listen to will sound great. Whether you want to listen to music, enjoy podcasts, or watch movies, you’ll have a great experience.

You should expect some great battery life with these earbuds. Google says that you can get up to 12 hours of listening time on a single charge. When you use the charging case, you can get up to 48 hours of battery life. Just know that your mileage will vary depending on your usage.

Now, the software

The other part of the Pixel Buds Pro 2 experience lies in the amazing set of software features. Google loaded these earbuds with some great features through the Pixel Buds app. For example, these earbuds have automatic conversation detection. If someone starts a conversation with you while you’re listening to these earbuds, they will automatically pause the media and turn on transparency mode.

Next, there’s spatial audio with head tracking. This makes the audio you’re listening to much more engaging. They will adjust the audio as you turn your head. So, it will feel like you’re physically in the studio or concert hall. This is a well sought-after feature, as it adds another level of immersion.

These are the first earbuds on the market that summon Gemini by default. If you have Gemini on your phone, then the Pixel Buds will be able to summon it with a simple gesture. This means that powerful AI is always easy to access.

With its list of powerful features and great audio, the Pixel Buds 2 Pro are the best earbuds on the market, and this is why they got the award.
