This has been fun. and I felt like I needed to share to ward off others from this HORRIFIC experience.... I was so excited to receive my pixel buds 2. Waited 3 weeks for the backorder shipping and finally they shipped. Put them in my ears. listened to music for a bit, everything seemed great. Got up. walked into the next room. audio cut out as I moved... Figured eh whatever, I'm in another room. it's like through a doorway. and they are small. "its fine." went to bed shortly after this in prep for my morning 5 mile run. Got up the next morning. Put on earbuds ran out the door. walking around the first few steps (phone in pocket) the buds began to cut out. Music stopping and starting every 20 seconds for about 1 second. As I ran further and further I realized any motion of my head would cause the buds to cut out. I ended up sorta just looking straight ahead avoiding moving my head to keep the music playing..... Any motion causing the cutout as I entered larger open spaces... About 20mins into the 40min run I gave up. put them in my pocket and ran home in silence. Contacted support after doing full troubleshooting. (deinstall/reinstall) de-pair repair- clear cache. firmware updates.. Everything I could think of. Nothing fixed it. Support suggested RMA- for another unit... While I was pondering this return process, a call came in... I was sitting in my chair listening to music on the buds... so I went to answer it. click... click.. on the headset as I press harder on the button...... The headset bleeps as google assistant comes up. yet the call is still ringing?? I answer on the phone and try to switch to headset.... Not an option... Speaker or Pixel 3xl top speaker. only options. after the call I do some digging. Found Tons of articles about calls not being supported on the pixel 3xl. and LOTS of other models.... but like... google phone... google pixel buds... you get where I am going here... and this thread. a month old. with 170 people complaining. (you have to hit the arrow button to expand it) https://support.google.com/googlepixelbuds/thread/43794726?hl=en I could go on with reddit posts and further about these issues. but I don't feel the need... as my review is probably all the info you need. Buy another set of earbuds.... I decided against the RMA and My return is set for 6/10/2020. I doubt the issue will be resolved before then. but I never lose hope.... I gotta pay shipping both ways per google. But I guess I'm not out the full $194.... Maybe I can save others the headache and frustration.

Not true. Or at least not true on the generation I owned. For a week I battled with popups asking me to turn it back on. Tried everything to disable them to no avail. Like I said. Its a problem. I feel like someone here is an apple fan. LOL

that seems nice. however. if you disable it. The phone will give you popups day and night informing the user that its turned off. apple does not like their consumers to disable things.

This post was to state there is an issue with Icloud for normal consumers. Not for people who are actually intelligent and can fix their own problems. This is like fighting off the troll patrol on this forum jeez... do I need my anti bridge spray ? I fixed my problem by getting rid of that apple trash.

^not a fight. Re-iteration of statement for clarification purposes. Perhaps some people live in larger cities where the infrastructure is better and can provide better upload speeds and 54mb/s isnt gonna brick/saturate them.

so. The fact that I talk to at least one person a week with the same issue. is a Me problem huh. ?

Data monitoring through a router is not false. 32gb up. is 32gb up. 79WJD I dont think you have any clue what your talking about.

I work for a cable company. I had a 16gb iphone. In one month it had uploaded 32gb of data to the cloud. WTF !?!!?! I have complained to apple and they are aware and dont care. I have never been so angry about apple clearly just not caring. Icloud while its uploading will brick/Saturate any normal network to the point that it will not work. Apple doesnt seem to care. I have ditched the iphone due to this alone. I talk to people on the daily who ask why their internet sucks. and its the f***ing iphone bricking it. so many times..... Please do a video on this ! Show the masses this shit is unacceptable.. show apple something needs to change. that is all. #endrant
