Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Google Pixel Buds A-Series headphones is a very good product for those that have Pixel phones. These headphones offer some extra features that are only available if they're paired and connected to a Pixel smartphone. I really like the added feature of the Google Assistant talking to me when I get a notification. If you allow the settings, it will tell you who and/or what kind of notification you received. Having this feature allows me to decide whether to actually grab my phone or not when a notification arrives. Other features of the Pixel Buds that I really appreciate are the in-ear detection and the auto volume adjustment if/when there is external noise while listening. I also love the rich bass tones and spatial, stereo sounds while listening to music or videos with these earbuds. I have compared the sound quality with other headphones that I own and in terms of comfort and sound quality, the Pixel Buds are the most satisfying and enjoyable to use. I've had these for over 2 months now and use them almost every day. I did drop the case a few times and lately I've noticed that the right earbud doesn't always start charging when I put it in the case. I don't know if it's a direct result of it being dropped, or is it a design flaw in that the earbud doesn't line up properly with the charging pins. It's very frustrating to open the case, pop an earbud in my ear, thinking that they were charging for over an hour, only to find out that one of the earbuds never got charged! I have to say though that I'm pleased at the speed at which the buds are charged. It doesn't take long for them to get back to 100%. I also like the fact that Google made a model in this olive green color. It doesn't blend 100% with my skin tone, but, that fact that it's not a glaring white or eye-popping noticeable color suits my taste. Overall, I am very happy with this product.

I had tried prettt much every wireless earbuds brand including Airpods, Samsungs, kull Candy, and many more. But this was it. They fit perfect and when wearing them I forget that they are in my ears. The charge lasts for more than a day even with continuous use. They are super light and durable. Sound quality is great and so is the fit.

As a pixel phone user I highly recommend keeping in house and having pixel buds. The connection is instant, the sound quality is excellent, and they’re incredibly comfortable. My only wish is to upgrade to pixel buds 2 and be able to wirelessly charge and change the volume with touch control.

I've had three of the Pixel earbuds and they all have been excellent at connecting to my Pixel phones. The sound quality has been great while listening to music, podcast, and especially on the phone. The reason I give them 4 stars is because they fall out of my ears a lot and because they are touch sensitive it's really easy to accidentally tap them with my shoulder while gardening or my wet hair while running, etc. I'm very active and this can be a big problem when my hand are full. Once I lost them while I was walking through a mall, and I didn't have any music playing or anything. One fell out and I didn't even notice it until I started the music again. I couldn't find it anywhere and I had to pay another $60 for a replacement. :(. Otherwise they are great, but I wish they would make an around the ear wing for people who need the extra security and put buttons instead of touch sensitive controls.

After having used the Pixel Buds A-Series for more than a year, I can say it is the best in-ear headphones I have used and the best bang for the buck you can get. It has nice rich sound and is extremely comfortable on the ears. The wing-tip design makes it so that it snugs nicely into your ears without it being loose. For the price, the Pixel Buds A-Series is hard to beat!

These are my first wireless earbuds and I am extremely happy with them. The pairing process with my Pixel 4a is seamless. They are easy enough to switch to my laptop when needed. They are comfortable and sweat resistant. I considered buy more expensive buds with ANC, but honestly I haven't really needed it. The buds seal well and have decent enough sound quality and volume. If I need better audio, I do prefer my mid range headphones.

I like the functionailty of them. They arent over the top complicated to operate. They fit nicely in your ear with the right ear piece. The case is nice and slim and is comfortable in your hand. The sound I found to be good. I can hear some things going on around me, which I'm ok with. Battery life seems to be just as good as the other brand I had, if not better.

They connect with my Pixel 9 and my HP laptop very well, so they can be used with products that aren't Google as well! They're small and they come with 3 different size pieces to help you find the best fit! My only complaint is that no matter which size I use I always feel like they're falling out a little bit and they hurt my ears after awhile.

After owning and using these for about 4 months, these are awesome. The features you skip out on compared to the main Pixel Buds, honestly you shouldn't miss them compared to your cost savings. The sound quality is excellent, they're comfortable and stay in your ears quite well. Can't comment on call quality as I've only used them once or twice for that, but the other person heard me just fine.

Wow, these are absolutely fantastic. I had purchased the Bose SoundSport Free wireless headphones for around $200 a few years and now they wouldn't hold a charge so I replaced them with these. Unlike the Bose they fit like a glove and sound better. I was looking at more expensive ones but glad I picked these. There is a bass boost setting in the Sound of the app which makes them sound even better. Rock on!

LOVE these ear buds!!! They pair very easily with my phone and my voice is heard clearly by the other caller. Loud volume, the way I like it, and they don't fall out during workouts. Sweat doesn't seem to be an issue, either. I have difficulty pairing with my Hisense smart TV, but they still pair. Overall, I can't think of a single negative- buy them!!!

Great little headphones. They're super comfortable, and the battery life on both the earbuds and the case is exceptional. I prefer these to my old Apple airpods. Pairing with an Android phone is also super easy (even non-Pixel phones).

Really impressed with these pixel buds. I have used them for about a month and love the sound. The price point was excellent. They hold a charge for a good while. I am not an audiophile by any stretch, but the sounds are rich and the bass is adequate for me. I would say for those that are curious about an ear bud, these are excellent entry level to this technology. Setup is a breeze!

Excellent sound quality and connection strength. Good battery life. Comfortable.

Good sound quality. Comfortable fit. Easy to connect to my Pixel phone

I owned the regular Pixel Buds, and I ending up selling them because I had the infamous connectivity issues that everyone suffered from, and even after months of ownership and countless firmware/software updates it was never fixed. However, if you’re a Pixel owner it’s hard to live without these. 1) because of the native Assistant integration. And 2) because they actually sound great. I’d also like to add that the little hook in the bud which secures it in the ear is beyond genius. I’ve always had issues with buds falling out of my ears but I don’t have that problem with these. That’s why I’m glad that Google released the A series, because amazingly enough they don’t have the connectivity issues that the regular Pixel Buds had, and they’re much cheaper. But they sound the same and have that same Assistant integration. If you’re not sure what I mean by Assistant integration, then the best way that I can describe it is imagine having a Google smart speaker in your ear. You never have to pull your phone out of your pocket. Just say “hey Google,” or just tap and hold one of the sides of the bud and let the Assistant do all of the work for you. It’s so much fun.

So far, this has been a solid pair of earbuds. The sound is surprisingly good and the design makes the earbuds snug in a way that few headphones have achieved for me before. With that said, the snugness does cause discomfort in my right ear occasionally even with the small tips. I got these as a replacement for a pair of Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Pros that I lost. I think I would still recommend those for the active noise cancelling (which I didn't use) and pass through mode to make hearing others easier (something I frequently used). These earbuds do offer a simple, barebones experience though and that may be a good selling point for some. I also think they're too pricey given the limited feature set, but ignoring price they are a good pair of earbuds.

Super easy pairing to my Pixel 7a and great at blocking out extraneous noises. Charges up quickly too.

These are comfortable for long wear, I work graveyard shift and can wear them all night without my ears hurting. The sound quality is pretty good, it's a little lacking in bass in some music I have noticed, but not enough to be an issue in my opinion. Awesome quality for the price, and the battery life is great.

I had heard great things about these "budget" earbuds, so I decided to give them a try. I am SO glad I did, because I love these so much more than the "Pro" lines of earbuds I've tried at other big tech companies. The sound is great (some of my favorite features being Adaptive Sound and the adjustable bass), they're incredibly comfortable (due to the fit and the pressure-relieving design of the buds), they don't move at all thanks to the wing tip (which doesn't give me ear fatigue EVER), and the touch controls are extremely reliable and accurate. Paired alongside my beloved Pixel 7a they work incredibly well, although they also pair seamlessly with all of my other non-Google devices. I highly recommend giving these earbuds a try!
