The Google Pixel Buds Pro’s Indian pricing hasn’t been revealed yet but they were unveiled with a price tag of $199 (approximately Rs 15,400) during the Google I/O 2022.

Google Pixel Buds Pro: Specifications and Features

The Google Pixel Buds Pro – as mentioned before – competes with industry heavyweights, so, naturally, it comes equipped with premium features such as Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency Mode. A custom six-core audio chip running on Google-developed algorithms will tune the ANC. Transparency Mode will allow users to hear ambient sounds more distinctly when activated. The buds also offer hands-free Google Assistant support, which has been one of the key features of all past Pixel Buds as well.

You also get an IPX4 splash and sweat-resistant build while the case offers IPX2 splash resistance. The earbuds come equipped with capacitive touch sensors for music and call controls. The charging case supports USB Type-C wired charging, and there’s Qi wireless charging support added as well. 

The buds support multipoint connectivity as well – a much-loved feature that enables users to connect the earbuds to two devices simultaneously. The Pixel Buds Pro will come with Bluetooth v5.0 connectivity and will deliver a total listening time of 31 hours (without ANC). The charging case supports fast charge which allows for an hour’s worth of playback with merely five minutes of charging. Users can also use the Find My Device app to locate their earbuds if they misplace them.
