Pixel Buds Pro

Hi,

I'm using the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 (the ones that were released in 2023 with the Pixel 8). Sometimes I want to use them with a Windows 11 laptop. There are two things that annoy me to no end:

Totally makes sense. I haven't had any hardware issues that made me return my phone or hate it so much I switched, but there are just tons of little things.

I have to keep Bluetooth on my pixel tablet off or it persistently and randomly broadcasts over my pixel buds pro two , they aren't even paired with it anymore and still periodically as I'm wandering around the house with my buds in , paired to my phone .. whatever is running on my tablet ( in hub m

mine don't disconnect as often as they did earlier with last update and audio quality is usable now but compared to what you got for original Pixel Buds Pro, they're trash.
