Reduced from last year's model, but still perceptible (to some people, at least), I've used sub-$50 earbuds with wireless charging

Lower price, Virtually the same likable design and sound as Pixel Buds 2 but weigh slightly less, Hands-free Google Assistant, Very good sound for the price, Excellent call quality, Compact charging case, IPX4 sweat-resistant (splashproof)
No swipe controls for volume up/down, No real feature upgrades vs. earlier model, Average battery life
Nice relaxed sound with a choice of light bass or a little more, Surprisingly spacious soundstage, Very comfortable to wear, Decent value
No noise cancellation, Adaptive sound is hit and miss, Requires an Android phone to get the most out of the earphones
Google's attempt at the Pixel Buds A-Series is an intriguing offer and an attempt to compromise. On the one hand, there are features missing that you could get on just about any other earphone maker, and yet the other… these things are just so darn comfor...

Abstract: If there's one thing you can expect from Google it's that they make very good products for prices that seem slightly too reasonable. Their latest product is the Google Pixel Buds A-Series, true wireless in-ear headphones. Like the other Pixel A-Series pr...

Pros, Clean and balanced sound, Fast pairing and slick software, Competitive price
Cons, No wireless charging, Poor sound isolation
