If you have an Android phone and need a new pair of wireless earbuds, Prime Day may have just what you’re looking for at a discount. One of the best deals in this space is on Google’s Pixel Buds Pro 2, which are down to $170. That’s $60 off their usual $230 price, and a pretty great deal for a pair of wireless buds that rival Apple’s AirPods Pro 3.
The Pixel Buds Pro 2 are compact wireless earbuds with a touch-sensitive surface and a small circular ring in the back to help them stay in your ears. You can currently purchase the buds in bluish-gray “Moonstone,” off-white “Porcelain,” pink “Peony” or light black “Hazel” color options, but whichever you choose, you’ll get solid active noise cancellation and a collection of other helpful audio features. In terms of ANC, Tech Reader’s review of the Pixel Buds Pro 2 found that the earbuds do a good job of blocking out “low-to-mid-range noise” but still struggle to block out nearby voices. On the whole, though, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 sounds better than Google’s previous wireless earbuds, particularly when you’re listening bass-forward tracks.
Google’s premium wireless earbuds are available for an all-time low for Prime Day.
The capabilities of the Pixel Buds Pro 2 extend beyond just listening to music, of course. Like its competitors, Google has turned its wireless earbuds into hearing protection, too. The Pixel Buds Pro 2 were recently updated to support what Google calls Loud Noise Protection, which can reduce incoming loud noises to protect your ears. That’s on top of features like Adaptive Audio, which can adjust noise cancellation and volume based on your surroundings, and Talk to Gemini Live, which gives you a hands-free way to have a free-flowing conversation with Google’s AI chatbot.
There might be other earbuds that offer better audio performance, but the Pixel Buds Pro 2 is the best option if you’re on Android and want a seamless experience. For $170 during Prime Day, that’s hard to pass up.
