It seems these only work in this fashion with Pixel devices.
I understand they're trying to create an air of exclusivity but it really just comes off kind of greedy and dickish when in reality, any earbuds with a microphone should be capable of doing the same thing through Google Translate.
- r00fus 9y agoAs a big Apple fan, I have no idea why Google should take flack for making this an exclusive (other than their previous "we're more open and open==good" hypocrisy). Exclusivity means they have a limited hardware profile and control the quality out of the gate. Rolling it for use on all e.g. Android6 devices is sure to be a support nightmare. It also may expand to other (Android|iOS) devices in future.
