A Google Pixel Buds discount isn't exactly difficult to come by, which is a good thing. But right now the best pairs are on sale, matching the best prices we've seen for them, thanks to Amazon Prime Day. Presumably, these deals will end when the day does or when stock runs out, so keep that in mind if you're shopping.
For more deals and recommendations, check our list of the Absolute Best Prime Day Deals. You can also head over to our live blog, where we already shared one of these discounts hours ago—being our friend does indeed come with some benefits. Finally, we have a dedicated roundup of Prime Day headphone deals.

Pixel Buds 2a
The Pixel Buds 2a are our favorite earbuds overall, even beating out Apple's AirPods for most people. They aren't perfect—the case doesn't charge wirelessly, and you can't control the volume via the touch controls—but they do sound great and fit comfortably. Most important, they don't cost an eye-watering amount of money. There are simply too many good pairs of earbuds that are accessibly priced, and these play well with both iOS and Android. They have noise canceling and some bells and whistles like Google Translate and Gemini AI, too.

Pixel Buds Pro 2
The Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 are some of the best earbuds for Android, though they will also work with iOS (but if you're shelling out this much money, you might want to just get AirPods). They're small, but mighty, with excellent noise cancellation and transparency modes. The battery life is better than you'd find in AirPods, and the sound quality easily rivals them as well. There's Google Gemini integration, but it's not exactly seamless. They have solid onboard touch controls, including volume control, and wireless charging. And finally, there's IP54 water resistance, so you can take 'em to the gym with no problems.
