An inquiry indicates that the cases for Google’s Pixel Buds Pro 2 and Buds 2a can be interchanged. A video illustration demonstrated that users can interchange the earbuds between the cases of both models while still maintaining charging capabilities. Although this compatibility is not officially acknowledged by Google, the video verifies that each earbud fits and charges in the alternative case. The Pixel Buds Pro 2 recently underwent a major update, introducing features such as Adaptive Audio, Loud Noise Protection, and Head Gestures, improving the overall user experience. This unforeseen compatibility emphasizes a possible transition towards more universal accessory designs, akin to the common use of USB-C chargers across various smartphone brands.
