Yep. The damn hissing is why I returned mine after just one day. I'm convinced it's due to inadequate internal components shielding. It's a huge deal breaker for me as I rarely ever blast my music. Once heard it can not be unheard. Great article 👍

My girlfriend can't hear a hissing sound but I can. I'm no audiophile but I definitely hear better than most, and it's... awful. Low volume listening, quiet tracks, pauses between songs are all plagued by this noise, primarily on the right earbud.

What hissing sound? I bought it when it was launched in the UK. There is no hissing sound 🤷🏻‍♂️

Same, audio sounds fantastic!

No hissing sound, really happy with audio.
But
The left earbud stopped working after 1 week & are being replaced at no charge which is excellent service!

The hissing or static issue with the latest Pixel Buds remains, despite the release of a firmware update that supposedly addressed the problem. In fact, the hissing issue is noticeable even on units released after Google claimed to have fixed it.
