Adaptive Sound (with Android equipment)

The Google Pixel Buds A-Series are the latest entry in the wireless headphone market by the search-engine behemoth. They are small true-wireless earbuds that, while aimed primarily at Google and Android smartphone users, will perform a good job with any device that can handle Bluetooth 4.0+ – so that covers pretty much any smart device from the recent past.

Aggressive pricing policy

As well as performance improvements, the most obvious difference between this, the third iteration to bear the Pixel Buds name, and its two forebears, is with the launch price.

The Pixel Buds A-Series are yours for a competitive ₹9999, compared with the figure the Pixel Buds 2 came on the market for last year. That’s an impressive drop in price and brings these Google buds right into a hugely popular section of the market. At this price, they even undercut obvious rivals such as Cambridge Audio’s Melomania 1 Plus by a significant amount.

YG Acoustics Carmel 3

On paper, the Carmel 3 from Colorado-based speaker specialist YG Acoustics has a credibility problem. They cost a huge amount of money but are small, rather plain-looking two-way floorstanders.
