Google's Pixel Buds Pro 2 are surprisingly excellent earbuds, especially if you live in the Android ecosystem. On top of standard features like noise cancellation and a charging case, they leverage Google's AI experience to deliver handy features like detecting when you're trying to have a conversation and pausing your music. And right now, they're more affordable than ever.

Typically, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 run for around $230, but this week they're down to an all-time low of $160. For the money, you get your choice of several colors including Porcelain, Hazel, Peony, and Wintergreen. Or, if you don't speak marketing, that's white, gray, pink, and green.

The earbuds tout an impressive 8 hours of battery life on a single charge, and that's with Active Noise Cancellation turned on. The charging case extends that to 30 hours, but you can stretch both of these figures even further by turning ANC off. They're also IPX4 water resistant, which means they should hold up even during intense workouts.

What do you think so far?

Since they're part of the Android ecosystem, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 pair pretty effortlessly with any Android device, and they can even seamlessly swap between them. If you've used Google's Fast Pair to connect your phone or Pixel Watch, you can quickly switch which device you're listening from with a single tap.
