Your Pixel Buds Pro 2 might feel like completely different earbuds after this update.
Google is rolling out a software update for its Pixel Buds Pro 2, aimed at improving both audio quality and the Gemini experience.
After teasing the major update during its Made by Google 2025 event, Google has finally started rolling it out for the Pixel Buds Pro 2. The update (version 4.467) is hitting devices in stages, so don’t panic if you don’t see it immediately – it’s coming.
To make sure you get it, keep your Pixel Buds Pro 2 charged and connected to your phone, and update to the latest Google app. But what’s actually inside this update, you wonder?
First off, there’s Adaptive Audio and Loud Noise Protection. Adaptive Audio automatically adjusts your earbud volume based on your surroundings – perfect for when you move from a quiet room to a busy street. Loud Noise Protection, on the other hand, automatically tones down sudden loud noises.
But Google didn’t stop there. You also get head gestures for calls and texts. Nodding your head can answer a call or reply to a message, while shaking it lets you decline. And finally, Gemini Live gets an upgrade for noisy environments.
