Well, as 9to5Google points out, aside from the lovely shade of subtle green to match the phone, it appears to be completely identical to the Pixel Buds Pro 2. Pixel Buds Pro landed in 2022, the second generation two years later. It’s possible Google offers a slew of new features via software updates that’ll make the mean green model seem new? The Pixel Buds Pro 2 were dubbed a “sensational sequel” in Stuff’s 2024 review. The Pixel Buds Pro 2 are wonderfully comfortable, fully-featured, and sound great – while staying competitive on price.”
