But isn't this the same as apple accessories having limited functionality on Android?
That apart these are very good for online meetings via computer. They pair very well and noise cancelation is excellent. Recently slack huddles have been bit difficult with volume going low. Slack and Samsung should work to make it better.
I can confirm this price in Dallas metroplex as of Tuesday.
70% off to $69 is slick, but $115 is not. Guess I lucked out.

So I prefer the pixels buds pro with my pixel 8 and laptop.
The only thing I don't like is where you have to tap to do the volume change.

Connectivity issues occur when trying to pair the earbuds to iPhones, Microsoft Surface laptops, Lenovo laptops, certain TV models, and older Android phones.
The reason is that the Buds2 and Buds2 Pro use Bluetooth LE to establish a first-pairing connection, rather than the standard Bluetooth protocol. Certain devices, such as the ones listed above, will only pair over standard Bluetooth chips/protocols. Bluetooth LE uses a different protocol. iPhones, Surface, Lenovo, and other devices do not pair via Bluetooth LE. They may be able to recognize the existence of a device using Bluetooth LE, but their handshaking protocol doesn't go over LE. Therefore, even if you can see the device listed in your software settings, your device may never pair to the Buds2 or Buds2 Pro. It also depends on the firmware of the buds, as Samsung had promised that they would fix this issue and also expand the usage of BLE with updates.
If someone complains that their device cannot pair to the Buds2 or Buds2 Pro, I wouldn't blame their device. Bluetooth LE was introduced with Bluetooth 4.0, but it only recently gained widespread support from manufacturers and developers on Bluetooth 5.2 and Bluetooth 5.3.
Do you remember when Bluetooth 3.0 and 4.2 co-existed? We had hundreds of devices with issues where a customer would say, "I have Bluetooth, but this other Bluetooth device doesn't work on it!" It was because they were using a Bluetooth 2.0 or 3.0 receiver and the device they bought was a 4.2, and not everything was backwards compatible. Now, here we are, with Samsung utilizing a feature set that most other engineers don't use. History repeats itself.
