Worth the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great wireless earbuds for the price if you don't need noise canceling and work seamlessly with my pixel phone
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Battery life, Fit, Sound quality
My first Pixel buds, definitely a fan!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the money, these new Pixel Buds A-Series are hard to beat. The case is solid and small enough to fit into my 5th jean pocket. I also appreciate how slim these buds are while i'm wearing them. They do not stick out nearly as much as most other buds i've tried. They sit pretty flush to my ears, and I feel like they offer a sleeker appearance. Battery life has been as advertised, and the charging case seems to charge quickly with a USB-C cable. Setup was as simple as can be with my Pixel 5, and the options being built into the bluetooth menu is really convenient. I do not mind downloading a separate app, but it's nice to not have to for a chance. There is no active noise cancelling, but the passive noise isolation is solid. It's good enough to drown out my air conditioner and fan while sitting around the house. Sound quality is punchy and clear, though I did find them to be lacking a little in bass out of the box. There is a bass boost mode available in the settings, which definitely brought the sound quality up quite a bit for me. I would highly recommend these buds for anyone looking for a premium set, but is not necessarily worried about ANC or spending 2-3x the price.
I would recommend this to a friend Buy Anker
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doesn't fit my ears, doesn't cancel out background noise. Great functionality with my PIxel device but that's about the only thing it has going for it.

Posted .Hi Evan, thanks for reaching out. We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the noise cancellation feature for Pixel Buds A-Series. Although it doesn't come with this feature, the Adaptive Sound feature subtly and automatically optimizes volume based on the noise level of your environment. If you're moving from your quiet home or office to somewhere noisy like a city street, cafe, or subway, you’ll notice a subtle difference in your volume to adjust to the new level of outside noise. Adaptive Sound adjusts for sustained noise, rather than one-off background noise, to ensure a non-disruptive listening experience. Adaptive Sound on Google Pixel Buds is only available on Android and requires an Android 6.0+ device.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice pair of headphones and comfortable but not noise suppression at all. So were about useless for me in the gym. Average person should love them though.

Two year experience review
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They were good in the mean while. Started having connectivity issues connecting to my Apple products about 6 months ago. This past week my left ear bud works halfway so it’s much lower than the right, decided to buy some AirPods this time around.

earbuds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds are excellent. They fit perfectly and are easy to set up with Bluetooth to my phone.
I would recommend this to a friend Not bad, but not the best
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They had a few problems that drove me to return them. First, they didn't immediately connect to my iPhone. I had to go to the phone and select them. Second, if I'd touch them, I'd hang up on a phone call. Third, they sounded slightly tinny to me. I couldn't find how to soften their sound. I went back to Apple AirPods.

Pixel 6a Earbuds
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The buds were too bulky in my ear and they kept falling when I turned facing down.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Google Team
Posted .Hi, AlexP! Thanks for sharing a review on the Pixel Buds A-Series. We're sorry to hear that it keeps falling out of your ear. Your Pixel Buds are pre-attached with medium eartips and come with small and large ear tips so that you can improve your fit. Ears are unique so your left ear may be different from your right ear. We recommend trying the different eartip sizes for each ear to find the best fit. A tight seal gives you better sound and mic performance. If you are not getting the audio or call quality you expect, try bigger eartips. To swap eartips, pull the attached eartip off and press the other eartip onto the earbud until you feel a light snap. Gently pull on the eartip to ensure that it's properly attached.

Decent
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality is ok. No noise cancellation so not recommended in noisy area. Many better choices out there.

Posted .Hi Erik, thanks for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your Pixel Buds A-Series fell short of meeting your expectations. We made a few focused tradeoffs to bring the same sound quality, design language, and Google helpfulness of Pixel Buds to this more affordable price, hence, the omission on some features. However, your A-Series comes with Adaptive Sound to adjust the volume based on your surroundings. You may also have the option to try out the new Google Pixel Buds Pro that does come with active Noise cancellation features. If you would like to learn more, or would like to speak to our support team, please do reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/googlepixelbuds/gethelp

Posted .Hi Mari, thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you're uncomfortable with the fitting of your Google Pixel Buds A-Series.
Your A-Series also comes with a stabilizer arc that works to ensure a gentle, but secure fit. We suggest gently inserting your earbud with the wingtip or stabilizer arc, and tucking it into each ear to provide a better fit. Slightly rotate it back and forth until it comfortably stays in place when you move your head or tap either earbud.

Posted .Hi there Daniel, we appreciate your feedback and thanks for letting us know of your issue with the Pixel Buds A-Series. It’s unfortunate to hear that they won't stay fit and comfortable in your ears.
To ensure you get a gentle but secure fit using the stabilizer arc for your A-Series, we recommend gently inserting your earbud, with the wingtip or stabilizer arc and tucking it into each ear, to provide a better fit. Then, slightly rotate it back and forth until it comfortably stays in place when you move your head or tap either earbud. Also, you may want to try out all 3 ear tip sizes to find the most comfortable tip, and ensure that you get the best ear tip seal and provide the best listening experience.
