The Google Pixel Buds 2a were a sleeper hit last year, and this is a long-term review. They offer a premium sound, smart features and everyday comfort without the flagship price tag. After using them for over three months, paired mainly with the Pixel Pro 10 XL, I keep going back to them between reviewing other earbuds.
