After releasing the new [Pixel Buds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/google-find-my-device) to the American market, [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixel-buds-pro) has expanded the launch to Canada, the UK, France, Singapore, Italy, Germany, Spain, and Australia—among others.

Originally available in the US at the end of April, the Pixel Buds boast an impressive sound quality, with custom-designed 12 mm dynamic speaker drivers, a sleek design that provides a contemporary low-profile look, adaptive sound that matches its sound output to the wearer's environment, and a water-resistant design that makes them perfect for intense workouts and rainy days. Other notable features include [real-time translation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timekettle-w4-ai), tap controls on the Buds that can access the hands-free Google Assistant, crystal clear calling that's designed to remain clear in even windy conditions, and a secure fit that can be attributed to its customizable ear tips and a stabilizer arc that keeps the buds in place at all times. Just like Google's Pixel phone, the Buds also boast wireless charging, making it easier than ever to keep them powered up.

The 2nd Generation Pixel Buds are available in their original Clearly White colorway now, with more colorways expected to come later this year.
