  • - Hey everybody.

  • It's Nilay from The Verge.

  • I'm here with Google's new Pixel Buds.

  • They're the follow up

  • to the Pixel Buds from two years ago.

  • They cost $179.00.

  • They lose that wire.

  • They're way smaller

  • and they look pretty cool.

  • They're like

  • little circles with a flange

  • to hold it in your ear.

  • So you put it in your ear

  • and they're hidden away.

  • Obviously, they have "Hey Google" support,

  • so you just say "Hey Google",

  • it will hear you.

  • The mics have beam-forming

  • so it can hear your voice

  • for improved call quality.

  • And, they have a neat

  • environmental features,

  • if you have a pixel phone

  • or another Android phone

  • running Android N

  • or above.

  • You get adaptive volume.

  • The pixel buds will sense

  • what kind of environment

  • you're in

  • and then raise

  • and lower the volume

  • of the audio you're listening

  • to from your phone.

  • They also have passive noise cancellation

  • so they fit in your ear,

  • but they're vented,

  • so you can hear some environmental sound.

  • That works in conjunction

  • with the environmental sound feature.

  • To give you a little bit

  • of noise cancellation.

  • It's not active noise cancellation.

  • But it's some of Google's AI smarts.

  • If you got an iPhone,

  • they're just standard Bluetooth earbuds though.

  • They'll last for five hours

  • on a single charge.

  • 24 hours if you use

  • the battery case.

  • The battery case is pretty cool.

  • USB-C charging.

  • That's pretty important.

  • It also has wireless charging.

  • There's a hidden LED on the front

  • and LED on the inside

  • to tell you it's charging.

  • Pixel Buds are $179.00.

  • They're coming Spring, 2020.

  • These ones don't work yet.

  • So, we gotta see what they sound like.

  • That's really important.

  • You can see more on theverge.com.

  • Here at Google's Fall Hardware Event.

  • You can check out everything else

  • on our YouTube channel

  • on The Verge.

  • That's the Pixel 4.

  • The new Google Home Mini.

  • The new Google Wifi system.

  • The Pixelbook Go.

  • There's a ton going on.

  • Check it out.

- Hey everybody.
