Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 vs Sony LinkBuds Open

Google Pixel Buds Pro 2

A major step up from the original Pixel Buds Pro with improved clarity, better bass control, and richer detail.

• New 11mm custom drivers produce noticeably clearer audio with better bass control than the original Pixel Buds Pro
• Tensor A1 chip enables real-time audio optimization that adapts to ear shape and seal quality
• Supports Bluetooth 5.4 with LE Audio for better codec support and lower latency

Sony LinkBuds Open

Surprisingly good for open-ear, but cannot match sealed earbuds.

• Sound is clear and pleasant for podcasts, calls, and light music listening
• Bass is noticeably thin — open design means no seal for low-end impact
