When you pair your Bluetooth earbuds and one hasn't charged
ALWAYS GETS ME AAAARRRRRRGHHHHHHH I make sure I disconnect them from all devices; I make sure they are well positioned in their cases; that the charging lights are on etc and yet.... they disappoint me like this...
You're viewing a single thread.
I've got a set of Pixel Buds A Series that seem to have painfully weak magnets, causing the buds to constantly lose contact with the charging pins. And since they're always turned on when disconnected from the charger, this means my buds will randomly pair to my phone even though they're both in the case, muting my sounds and preventing me from hearing notifications when I'm not wearing the buds. It's super frustrating. I feel your pain.
I upgraded to the pixel buds pro and have been very happy. Had some charging issues with my A series.
The pass through audio and noise cancelling features are amazing. I can do housework or ride my bike and use pass through to not be isolated from the world. It also feels different, like the buds get lighter. And noise cancelling is great for working in coffee shops.
I did the same! The Pros are 100% worth the cost difference, IMO. Though I do wish there was a way they could've incorporated the "wingtip" design of the A series ear tips into the Pro design, as that was a really comfortable fit. Everything else, including the reliability of the charger, is a straight upgrade.
Oh yeah, I loved those wing tips and was sad that they were missing. Took a while to find the proper sized tips to keep the buds in place and they still slide out frequently. My biggest complaint about the pro buds.
I have a lot of charging issues with my Pixel Buds Pro. Other than that they are pretty good headphones, but it does get a bit annoying.
That sounds a lot like my experience going from AirBudz to AirBudz pros as well. The pass through and ANC are incredible! I was astounded that they actually have bass, as well. I never had charging issues with my regular pair, but the pros do get less out of their charging case. At least it’s USB-C now!
Yeah sometimes that happens too. My fix is very simple, if I'm not using my buds I turn off Bluetooth.
One of my pairs has weak magnets too, but the other one doesn't. 🤷🏼♀️
I've found periodically cleaning mine with rubbing alcohol and a qtip vastly improves charging, fit, and sound. Still thinking about upgrading sometime soon tho.
