Our Verdict

Apple AirPods Pro Truly Wireless

Google Pixel Buds 2020 Truly Wireless

The Apple AirPods Pro Truly Wireless are much better truly wireless in-ears than the Google Pixel Buds 2020 Truly Wireless. The Apple block significantly more background noise, thanks in part to their great ANC feature. They also have a slightly better-balanced sound profile with a bit more bass. On the other hand, the Google last longer off a single charge and have an easier-to-use control scheme.
