Uncomfortable Design
Poor Sound Quality
Real-Time Translation Doesn't Work As Advertised
Expensive
Poor Battery Life
Too Expensive
Fiddly and inelegant headphone storage
Non-isolating sound
Fiddly touch panel
Translation limited to Pixel phones
Cumbersome to use across multiple devices
Awkward fit
Bassy sound
Google Assistant is pernickety
Their open design lets in a lot of ambient sound. The "real-time" translation feature is only available to Pixel phone owners
But isn't a big leap beyond the existing Translate app. Bluetooth pairing can be more cumbersome than it should be

Not a great fit
Music lacks both excitement and detail
Awkward design
Too much sound leak
Hearables shouldn't be this tricky
Google Assistant features are fussy

Odd case design
Hard to adjust ear fit
Uncomfortable to wear
Open design isn't good for noisy areas
Real-time translations fall flat

Hard to put in case
Not much sound isolation

Can't connect to two devices at the same time
No aptX
Stabiliser wing not adjustable
Expensive for tethered earbuds
Charging case hard to close
Feels flimsy
Earbuds fit oddly
The sound quality was disappointing
There's plenty of treble but a lack of deep bass and bight high notes
The battery life without the charging case is disappointing at just five hours

Abstract: All photos: Adam Clark EstesThere was always something off about the Pixel Buds. Google released the smart, wireless headphones a full year after Apple released the AirPods. But the Pixel Buds aren't exactly wireless, and they're not exactly smart, either...
Cute little soft case, Made for folks who still like earbuds (how many are left?), Battery performance isn't bad
Quickly uncomfortable, Volume differences are crazy: low to high, with little in between, Controls are super fussy, Translation feature seems fiddly at best, Storage of the earbuds is specific to one method of winding them up, Expensive
After a week with the Google Pixel Buds, it is very hard to recommend them to anyone but the die hard Google fanboy or folks that really, really, really, really, really, really love earbuds, and we're not sure we know of many in that category.Earbuds aren...

Abstract: Putting your music and all the power of Google in reach at all times, and even offering instant vocal translations straight into your ear like a real-life Babel fish, the newly-unveiled Pixel Buds promise to be the ultimate travel companion.Unveiled at th...
Compared to the rock-solid hardware they share their branding with, Google's Pixel Buds are unequivocally a bit disappointing. They're not comfortable to wear, they don't sound particularly great and the even the headline act of real-time translation isn'...
Unless you're really in need of basic translation services - and willing to pick up a Pixel 2 - there are better wireless headphones for a more reasonable price.That said, it's worth realizing that the Pixel Buds are more than just a pair of headphones. T...

Smart design, Good battery life
Awkward fit, Bassy sound, Google Assistant is pernickety
From Maps to Drive, Google has a history of making products that aren't that great to start off with and end up being awesome. The trouble with its Pixel Buds is that you're being asked to pay for that awkward first step, and that's not a great deal.Havin...
