Google Pixel Buds are designed to provide a high-quality and comfortable listening experience. Learn how to properly adjust Pixel Buds to best fit your ears.
Pixel Buds Pro 2
Get the right fit
To wear your Pixel Buds Pro 2:
- Gently insert each earbud so that the ear tip is inside each ear.
- Make sure that the G logo faces outward and is not upside down.
- To get the best fit for your ears, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 have a Twist-to-adjust stabilizer. It looks like a black fin at the top and should be tucked toward the back of your ear.
- Twist the stabilizer counter-clockwise to lock your earbuds securely in place when you’re doing physical activities (such as exercise).
- Adjust the stabilizer clockwise to loosen the fit for regular or comfortable use.
Choose the right eartips:
- Pixel Buds Pro 2 come with the medium ear tips attached (extra small, small, and large are in the box).
- If the fit doesn't feel right, experiment with different eartip sizes. We recommend trying 2 different sizes before deciding on a final one. You might need a different size for each ear. Keep your eartips handy so you can try different sizes until you find the perfect fit.

Tap Eartip Seal Check.
Because every ear is unique, it’s not always possible to get a perfect seal, and audio can “leak” in from outside. With Silent Seal™ 2.0, Pixel Buds Pro 2 can adapt to the shape of your ear and adjust Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to compensate, so you can fully immerse yourself in music or clearly hear your video call.
Pixel Buds Pro
Get the right fit
Gently insert your earbud into the ear. After inserting each earbud, slightly rotate it back and forth until it comfortably stays in place when you move your head or tap either earbud.
Improve the fit
Your Pixel Buds are pre-attached with medium eartips and come with small and large ear tips so that you can improve your fit. Ears are unique so your left ear may be different from your right ear. Try different sizes for each ear to find the best fit. A tight seal gives you better sound, noise cancellation, and mic performance. If you are not getting the audio or call quality you expect, try bigger eartips. To swap eartips, pull the attached eartip off and press the other eartip onto the earbud until you feel a light snap. Gently pull on the eartip to ensure that it's properly attached.
