Audio Hardware: Pixel Buds Pro 2 hit all-time low

The Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 are currently listed at $169, a figure that represents the lowest price the earbuds have ever reached. This price point is consistent across Amazon, Best Buy, and the official Google Store. The promotional window closes at 11:59 PM PT on November 8.

Shoppers seeking specific color options should verify inventory across multiple vendors, as several finishes have already sold out at certain retailers. Google’s website confirms the duration of the discount, and competing stores are expected to maintain the same pricing through the deadline.

The device targets Android users, with enhanced functionality available when paired with Pixel phones. This integration allows for deeper connectivity with the Gemini assistant. Since their launch, reviewers have noted the redesign reduces weight and size while improving physical fit and comfort compared to previous models.

Performance metrics show stronger active noise cancellation and a refined transparency mode relative to the prior generation. However, the earbuds still trail category leaders like the latest Bose Ultra Earbuds in certain aspects. The default audio profile prioritizes clarity and crisp detail over heavy bass, though users can adjust the sound using built-in presets or a five-band equalizer.
