r/GooglePixel • What earbuds are you guys using with your Pixel? ->I have the first Pixel Buds and SonyXM5s. Use both quite a bit
r/GooglePixel • What earbuds are you guys using with your Pixel? ->Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, they're not very good but have proved more reliable than a whole bunch of others, Sennheiser momentum, XM4, load of em, all never make it beyond 6 months. I baby them and they still die. I thought the og Pixel Buds were ok but they just wouldn't stay in my ears. I'm interested in the Pixel Buds Pro 2. Got some Bowers & Wilkins px7 s2 for when I fly or do some critical listening.
r/GooglePixel • What earbuds are you guys using with your Pixel? ->I have the OG buds, buds pro 1, buds pro 2 and buds a and none of them have stopped working.
r/GooglePixel • Disappointed by Pixel Buds Pro 2 ->I have the OG buds, buds pro 1, buds pro 2 and buds a and none of them have stopped working.
r/GooglePixel • Disappointed by Pixel Buds Pro 2 ->I have the base line pixel bud for 2 years now. My main concern about the pro 2 (aside from the price) is the fact that in every pictures of people wearing them they seems to stick out a lot of the ear. I dont want to look like a clown. I have small ears. The base pixel bud are ok. If the pro are bigger than that, i wont take them.
r/GooglePixel • Pixel Buds Pro 2- Unbiased review from someone who's used many earbuds. ->Beats Fit Pro. Had Google Buds back when they were Gen 1. Had a wireless charging case, and small earbuds. Totally ruined it for me when they made them twice as big the next go-around...
r/GooglePixel • What earbuds are you guys using with your Pixel? ->My daily driver is a pair of Pixel Buds 2 I also have my old trusty Jabra 65t's, a set of 85t (only the right bud keeps a charge), and a set of original Pixel Buds that I leave at work.
r/audible • What earbuds do you use? ->Airpod pro gen 2 Og pixel buds
r/GooglePixel • What earbuds are you guys using with your Pixel? ->I had very good luck with my OG pixel buds. Using Sony XM5 buds now. ANC works good. Great sound. Comfortable at 20+ miles but the battery is nearly empty when your over 3-3.5 hours. Probably need to adjust some settings if you want to run up to 4hrs with them.
r/Marathon_Training • Best running earbuds ->I enjoyed the OG pixel buds, but they conked out and the next gen didn't have the little wing tips which I didn't trust them to stay in without. I went with Senheiser Sport True Wireless in the end. They're clucky but reliable. Adjustable wing tips. Good sound and seal. No ANC - but I don't notice traffic noise with music on. Big touch sensor for switching through play lists and adjusting volume while mid run. Decent battery life. I've run in pouring rain and sweaty heat with them and they're fine. Still going strong two years later, they're pretty resilient - even after being dropped a couple dozen times. The case is quite bulky though so I leave it at home and unless they're in the case they have a weird habit of playing by themselves which runs the battery down.
