This iteration of the Pixel Buds might be the best take on wireless earbuds touch controls I’ve had the pleasure of using. Placing the buds into my ears elicited a cheerful tone and let me know that everything was working as expected. The Pixel Buds can be linked up to 6 devices at a time. From there, you’ll get all that Fast Pair goodness.

But with those devices, you’ll have to go through your normal Bluetooth menu to get everything set up.

And if you’re not a fan of Google’s Pixel phones, Fast Pair will also work with any device running Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) or higher or iOS. Clicking the notification took me to a tutorial that walked me through all the pertinent features of the buds including the embedded touch controls and digital assistant trigger phrases.Īfter the initial walkthrough, opening the lid on the charging case will automatically pair with the phone. A pairing notification popped up on the Pixel 4 XL. As soon as I popped the top on the Pixel Buds’ charging case, Google’s Fast Pair technology kicked in. Move over AirPods Pro, there’s a new nearly instantaneously-pairing device in town. My first glance at the Pixel Buds made me want to yell out “The Freshmaker,” before dropping them into a bottle of Diet Coke. And while I could feel the medium-sized eartips in my inner ear, neither bulged against my canal which allowed me to wear the buds for over two hours as I listened to music, called my folks and attended a video chat. From there, I just twisted the bud counterclockwise into my ear until the wing sat comfortably wedged against my concha. Inserting the Pixel Buds involved holding the bud to my ear with the ear wing straight up. That’s how simple wearing the new Pixel Buds is. Making it heavier and larger than the AirPods Pro’s case (1.6 ounces, 2.4 x 1.7 x 0.9 inches) as well as the Galaxy Buds Plus’ (1.4 ounces, 2.8 x 1.5 x 1 inches). The Pixel Buds’s charging case, which looks like a York Peppermint patty before it takes a chocolate bath, weighs 1.9 ounces and measures 2.5 x 1.9 x 1 inches.

The Pixel Buds weigh 0.18 ounces and measure 0.8 x 0.8 x 0.7 inches, which is slightly lighter and smaller than the Apple AirPods Pro (0.19 ounces, 1.2 x 0.9 x 0.9 inches) and the Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus (0.2 ounces, 0.7 x 0.9 x 0.8 inches).
