Slip on these Google Pixel buds, and stay in touch with Google Assistant using just a tap. The small design is comfortable to wear, and a light tap on the right ear bud brings up a multitude of options, including volume control and translating. These Google Pixel buds are Bluetooth compatible with Android 5.0 Lollipop and higher.

For this price, you would expect a pretty darn good product. These don't make the cut.
Fit -- There's a small loop in the cord that's supposed to help hold the buds in your ear. This works until you remove them and any tension on the cord makes the loop too small. Basically, you have to adjust the cord loop almost every time you put them on.
Sound -- Seems pretty good. Not anywhere near the best earbud sound, but acceptable.
Controls -- Pretty bad. I like to listen to podcasts and books. It's easy to pause and play with a simple tap on the right bud. Too easy, it turns out. If you hit pause and remove the buds, you will inevitably, unknowingly start playing again while the bud is out. Any slight touch of the right bud from the act or removing it or just from having it hang around your neck will cause you to lose your place in the recording. This is very frustrating and is the main reason I'm giving these up.
For this price, there are much better products out there.

Enjoy low-profile, hands-free communication with this Jabra Stealth+ 100-99800002-02 Bluetooth headset, which allows one-touch pairing. A Siri/Google Now button makes utilizing the personal assistant features of your smartphone simple.

Excellent Jawbone Era Replacement
on July 20, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been a Jawbone user for years. My last Jawbone Era finally gave up the ghost after about 3 years. Looked for a same-model replacement and learned that Jawbone has completely pulled support for this model. And reviews of the latest model are not very flattering. So I decided to take a chance on the Jabra Stealth.
After using it for almost 2 weeks, I have no complaints. Sound quality is excellent on both ends of the conversation. Battery life is better than my Jawbone. Light as a feather. The only difference is around fit. The Jawbone provided more of a seal in the ear to help keep out ambient noise. This hasn't been a problem for me yet, but it could be an issue in certain environments.
I also really like the all-black look and the included 2amp dual car charger. I believe these are only available in the Best Buy Stealth+.

Is the Jabra Stealth+ different from the Jabra Stealth
I am trying to determine if the Jabra Stealth+ is an upgraded model compared to the Jabra Stealth. As of today, BestBuy is the only sight I've seen it listed as a Stealth+. Stealth+ is not even listed as a model on the Jabra website.
The headset is the same as the regular Jabra Stealth. I believe the "plus" is that they throw in a nice dual 2amp car chager. "Plus," the black looks much nicer than the silver they sell elsewhere.
