Pixel buds pro 2 plum to under $170: best earbud deal of the year?

Amazon has slashed another$11 off the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2, bringing the price down to just under $170. This latest discount, a 26% markdown, follows a previous 21% reduction just days ago. If you're a Pixel user looking for premium audio without breaking the bank, now is the time to pounce.

Google’s top-tier earbuds now a steal

The Pixel Buds Pro 2 consistently rank among the best earbuds available, frequently competing with the AirPods Pro 3 and Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. They offer a compelling combination of high-fidelity sound, effective active noise cancellation (ANC), and a remarkably comfortable fit – important for extended listening sessions.

The earbuds deliver up to 8 hours of playback on a single charge, extending to a whopping 30 hours with the charging case and ANC enabled. Without ANC, you're looking at 12 hours from the buds and a total of 48 hours with the case. This battery performance is a significant advantage.

While the ANC isn’t quite as strong as some competitors – particularly when tackling higher-frequency sounds like office chatter – the overall noise reduction is impressive, especially for blocking out low-frequency hums. But the price? That's the real story.

Scoring Google’s flagship earbuds for under $170 represents a rare opportunity. It's a compelling proposition for Pixel owners seeking top-tier audio quality and all-day battery life. This isn’t just a discount; it’s a genuine value proposition.

The Pixel Buds Pro 2 aren't perfect—the ANC isn’t class-leading. However, they represent a fantastic blend of features and performance at a price point that’s hard to ignore. Consider this a prime opportunity to upgrade your audio experience without overspending. This deal won’t last forever.
