Really nice packaging
Google, like many other manufacturers, is taking the path of maximum sustainability. The packaging of the Pixel Buds Pro 2 headphones has thus completely gotten rid of plastic and comes in a minimalist paper design . The color of the top layer, depicting both plugs along with the Google logo and having only a decorative/informative effect, varies depending on the variant you get. I received the headphones in the Porcelain variant, so it was beige, but it adapts nicely to other, much more prominent shades.
In addition to the headphones themselves, the box includes three different sizes of spare plugs: XS, S and L (variant M is fitted from the factory).
Design and structural processing
The box of the Pixel Buds Pro 2 headphones won’t surprise you too much at first. This year, too, it is a traditional white egg with a pleasant magnetic lid, which Google this time added a speaker.
The earplugs themselves may seem a little strange to someone, and that’s because rubber protrusionthanks to which the headphones have a better fit in your ears. Google claims it used 45 million pieces of data from different ears to design the headphones. As a result, the design should be comfortable enough to wear the Pixel Buds Pro 2 all day.
Sound and function
Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 beckon for captivating sound and even more perfect active noise cancellation. They don’t miss either transparent modewhich, on the contrary, purposefully transmits sounds from the outside, which comes in handy, for example, when paying in a supermarket. Not only can you switch between these two modes with the touch control, but you can also use it summon the voice assistant powered by Gemini artificial intelligence. It ensures the best possible quality of all this Tensor A1 processor.
