The main feature of the Pixel Buds Pro 2 announced by Google this time is that it is equipped with Google's proprietary chip 'Tensor A1'. This makes the sound more immersive than the ' Pixel Buds Pro ' released in July 2022, and the noise canceling performance is about twice as good. In addition, the battery life has been improved, with a driving time of 12 hours with noise canceling off and 8 hours with noise canceling on. If you use the charging case, you can use it for 48 hours with noise canceling off and 30 hours with it on.




In addition, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 is equipped with Google's AI 'Gemini,' which allows you to check new emails, get directions to the nearest public transportation, create playlists, and more by talking to the earphones.




In addition, Gemini Live , available to users of the paid subscription Gemini Advanced , allows for more natural conversations with Gemini, such as exchanging ideas. At the time of writing, in order to use Gemini Live in Japan, it is necessary to set the language setting of the Gemini app to English and speak in English.




The Pixel Buds Pro 2 has evolved from the previous model in terms of both function and design, being about 27% smaller and 24% lighter than the previous model. In addition, by using ear scan data from 45 million people, the stability of the earphones has been improved, and the risk of them falling out has been reduced by rotating and adjusting the arch for fixing.




The Pixel Buds Pro 2 comes in four colors: Porcelain, Hazel, Wintergreen, and Peony, and is priced at 36,800 yen. Pre-orders have been accepted on the official website since August 14, 2024, and the product will be released on September 26, 2024.
