Critics & buyers
The human jury in one chapter — what the video reviewers score and say, the reviews behind it, and how Google buyers rate them.
What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Active noise cancellation ranks among the strongest available in earbuds, blocking substantial environmental sound
- Case and earbuds are noticeably smaller and more comfortable than the previous model
- Separate ear tips and stability bands allow customized fit combinations for different ear shapes
Reviewers push back
- No wireless charging despite the feature existing on the previous model
- Right earbud must remain active—left earbud cannot function independently when right is cased
- No multipoint Bluetooth connection to switch between two devices
Reviewers agree these deliver exceptional active noise cancellation and a significantly improved, more compact design over the previous model, but the removal of wireless charging and lack of independent single-earbud use frustrate at this tier.
One reviewer found the fit stable enough for running while another experienced the left earbud working loose during runs
