Google’s Pixel Buds Pro 2 might not be the newest earbuds around, but if you’re looking for a pair of flagship earbuds to pair with your Android phone this Black Friday, this deal makes them unskippable. I’ve been using them as my primary earbuds for more than a year, and at this price, they’re easily one of the best buys you can make this holiday season.
Right now, Amazon is offering the Pixel Buds Pro 2 for just $134, which is about 40% off their original $229 price. What’s great is that this offer is valid on the new Moonstone (blue) color that debuted alongside the Pixel 10 series a couple of months ago.
✅Recommended if: You own a Pixel phone and want tight integration with Gemini and Pixel features. In addition to this, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 also offer excellent ANC and a comfortable fit for long listening sessions.
❌Skip this deal if: you use an iPhone as your primary device or require constant multipoint Bluetooth switching between non-Google devices.
The twist-to-fit design ensures the Pixel Buds Pro 2 stay in place even during intense workouts or runs. The ANC on the Pixel Buds Pro 2 is also one of the best I’ve used. It’s not quite AirPods Pro 3-level, which practically silences everything around you, but it’s definitely better than most options you can get in this price range.
Plus, if you use Gemini frequently, these earbuds support Gemini Live out of the box, meaning you can have a live conversation with Gemini directly through your earbuds. One of my absolute favorite features is Conversation Detection, which automatically reduces the volume whenever you’re speaking so you don’t have to remove an earbud to talk to someone.
If you own a Pixel phone, you’ll enjoy the tight integration since these earbuds appear directly in Bluetooth settings, where you can adjust touch controls, ANC modes, and firmware updates. They work just as well with other Android phones from OnePlus, Samsung, or Motorola, too. You’ll simply need to download the Pixel Buds app from the Play Store during setup.
If I had to nitpick, it’d be that these earbuds don’t play perfectly with an iPhone. While most Google services work on iOS, Google hasn’t made a Pixel Buds Pro 2 app for iPhone. You can still pair and use them, but there’s no dedicated app to control features.
That said, at this price, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 feel like an absolute steal. I recommended them even at their original $229 launch price, but at nearly half off, they’re a must-buy.
