Good first impression video. Please don't use "hey Google" anymore. My house went full stupid 😂

Just received mine as well and I'm impressed how much smaller they are. The fit is clearly better, if not a touch on the loose side, even with the large tips. The sound is at least as good as the prior Pro buds if not better and they have a lot of new features that other pro level buds share. My only real issue is how fussy the touch controls are. They don't always respond when I want them to and don't provide clear feedback when they are engaged. Other times, they are too sensitive when I was not trying to activate them. The previous ones were also problematic with the touch controls as well.

In this video, Shane Craig does a first impression of the Pixel Buds Pro 2. He unboxes the Pixel Buds Pro 2, compares it to the Pixel Buds Pro and the Pixel Buds A-Series, and talks about the features of the Pixel Buds Pro 2.
Here are some key points from the video:
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 comes in a minty green color, which is the same color as most recent Pixel releases.
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 has a wing tip design which is similar to the Pixel Buds A-Series. This design is supposed to help keep the earbuds in place.
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 is smaller than the Pixel Buds Pro.
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 has a noise cancellation feature.
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 has a transparency mode that allows you to hear ambient sound.
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 has a digital assistant built-in.
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 has touch controls that can be used to change the volume, play/pause music, and answer/end calls.
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 can be paired to two devices at a time.
* The Pixel Buds Pro 2 has an equalizer that can be used to customize the sound.
* The overall sound quality of the Pixel Buds Pro 2 is neutral and balanced.
* Shane Craig will be wearing the Pixel Buds Pro 2 for a week and will do a full review video in the future.

I have debated hard as heck on getting these, but I have shied away from in ear earbuds, I'm a big fan of open ear now, I'm waiting on the nothing open ear design now😊 great video

[DagoRuiz]

Great video Bud. Mine just shipped. It's funny, I received the Bellroy case for them first 😅

[nationharris]

Really happy with mine. Updates to both the buds and case are great! The Pro 2 seem to actually cut out wind noise too in transparency mode which is nice!

[RacrLife]

My PBP2 were delivered a couple days ago, and so far I am very impressed! I already loved my original PBP, but these new ones are a big improvement.

[mickstosh]

Dude, I hope you grow the hair back as Nashville takes the ice. Thanks for the review—and I dig the Pfold2

[sflance]

Hope you and yours are weathering the weather well there in Knoxville: "Weather Impact Alert: Flood Warnings for Northeast TN, and High Wind Warning for most of East TN." Be safe and take care!

[macrochipped]

impressed they stuck with their design language

I got mine today too. Fitment is great, but I don't think there is a massive difference between the old ones. Maybe it's because it's new, but the case does feel snappier with the magnets and I noticed that the old case is glossier (but maybe that was due to having them for a while?). ANC doesn't feel 2x stronger, but it is stronger. I read that the mic was a lot worse though. It's a small detail, but I quite like the new sound effects too.

[ELCapiTRAN]

Please test the mic quality. There was another video out that tested it and it was the worse out of the bunch they were testing against including the old pros.

My buds pro 2 are coming in a few days, I've only ever had the og Pixel buds tws until the batteries went and I bought some sennheisers but I'm excited to have Pixel buds again because I used to really love my old pair.

10:00 - my phone lights up
"oh I must have a notifi-...god dammit, Shane!"
(triggered the "Hey Google" command)

I've had these for over a week and am totally loving them, the fit is great, the sound is excellent, the ANC is good and I appreciate the design of the buds and their case. very easy to put them back in with the strong magnets they have.

[michaelrawlings]

Much better fit. Still love the original pros but they were too large for my small ears.

[ELCapiTRAN]

they're glossy due to oils off your skin collecting on the surface of the case over time.

[hemiguy]

Received mine yesterday and I tell you I am impressed with the fit and the sound is amazing

[Pavel-wtwp]

Hi, thx. Multipoint connect work with any Android device or just with Pixel?

[IkesTechTalk]

Man I'm trying to hold out until I have to upgrade since my first gens are still going strong lol. So far....I'm holding strong, but the day is long🤣

[NegyedMisi]

Another small nuance but it annoys me and usually a thing with non-stem design buds: either bud being ANC / assitent on touch and hold means you lose this gesture by wearing one earbud only.
