What should I spend >£100 of Google Store credit on before it runs out? - eviltoast

I have a pixel 7

Currently using Cambridge Melomania headphones, so maybe I should get the pixel headphones? Are the pros worth it? Do we think they’ll go on sale in Dec?

    I also have a Pixel 7, and I bought some Pixel Buds Pros during the Amazon deal days for $120. I’d say they’re definitely worth it.

    I was using 1st gen AirPods Pros, which were fine, but they never quite fit right in my ears regardless of which tips I used. The Pixel Buds, on the other hand, fit snugly and provide a good seal which makes active noise cancellation excellent. They also have great sound and call quality.

    The only drawback is that the touch volume control is super finicky to the point that I just use my phone.

      i feel kinda silly about this but the pixel buds pro got me to admit that one of my ear canals is apparently bigger than the other. they have some kind of automated fitment test that you can run to determine which tips to use and it told me to mismatch mine, which had honestly never occurred to me as an option because surely my body is perfectly symmetrical, right?. anyways, so they get some bonus points for seal quality in my book.

    Depending on when it expires, I would wait for Black Friday week - surely there will be a sale.

    I used mine on Pixel Pods Pro and have no regrets.
