A simple twist convinced me the Pixel Buds Pro 2 are better than I ever thought

Wait 5 sec.

Pixel Buds Pro 2, in earCredit: Rita El Khoury / Android AuthorityI’ve had the Pixel Buds Pro 2 for six months now and thought I already knew everything there is to know about them. After all, they’re two pairs of buds and a case — what more could there be to them? But as I was catching up on some older episodes of the Made By Google podcast, I came across an interesting tip I hadn’t really considered about the Pixel Buds Pro 2, and it changed the way I use these buds every single day by simply twisting them in my ear.In the Pixel Buds Pro 2 episode of Google’s podcast, Collin Billings (senior product manager of the Pixel Buds Pro 2) explained the reasons and advantages behind the buds’ twist-to-fit stabilizer design (YouTube link). Even though this was part of the marketing material for the buds, I had never really paid much attention to it because nothing on the buds actually twists. They’re one continuous solid piece of plastic. I thought it was just a sales gimmick.
