August 09, 2025

TheGoogle Pixel Buds 2are a perfectly reliable pair ofwireless earbuds, but they’re not without problems. In fact, based on user reports, they have a lot of issues. Thankfully, it seems as though Google is more than aware of theissues many users are facing, and the company intends to fix them.

As reported byDroid Life, Google recently sent out a survey asking various questions about the experience of owning a pair of Google’s latest earbuds. Most of the questions are pretty basic, hitting on topics like what types of devices users own, how often they use their Google Pixel Buds 2, and things of that nature.

The survey becomes interesting towards the end when Google asked whether the user was facing any of the issues with their Google Pixel Buds 2 listed. The acknowledgment gives us a definite hint of the problems the company is aware of and which ones it’s likely to fix first.

All sorts of issues are covered in the survey, and it features many of the issues we’ve seen reported. For example, it mentions the constant hissing noise, audio cutouts, left and right buds being out of sync, lack of bass, and video lag. There’s a section that talks about issues with the fit and comfort of the Google Pixel Buds 2, the case, battery life, and even software issues with Google Translate, Adaptive Sound, and Google Assistant.

Hopefully, this is a sign that Google will fix these problems. Considering that the companyrecently announcedit would release regular feature updates for the earbuds, we’d expect to see many of them improved as time goes on.
