Release date and price
The Pixel Buds A-Series are completely independent wireless earphones released in August 2021.
The price on the Google official page is 11,900 yen.

The reason why I bought the Pixel Buds A-Series instead of AirPods when I use an iPhone this time is simply because they are expensive.
AirPods (3rd generation) 27,800 yen
AirPods Pro (2nd generation) 39,800 yen
Pixel Buds A-Series was purchased at Yahoo! Shopping for 8,400 yen for 14% 1,176 points, which is actually 7,224 yen.
I used to use wired earphones all the time, but lately I’ve started to feel that the wires get stuck and get in the way.
When I was looking for Bluetooth earphones, I wanted to buy Daiso’s Bluetooth earphones.
Below is a review video from the YouTube channel Yoshida Seisakusho
However, no matter which Daiso you go to, it’s out of stock.
So I bought the reasonably priced and stylish Pixel Buds A-Series.

About the touch sensor function
There is a touch sensor as a function.
You can perform operations such as pausing or skipping songs without using your smartphone.
Also, when you touch it, it will notify you with a “pop” sound. It is very comfortable to be able to determine whether it is operating or not.
The operation method when connected to an iPhone is as follows.
・Press once: play/pause
・Double press: next song
・Triple press: previous song
About the Pixel Buds app

As of February 2021, the “Google Pixel Buds” app cannot be installed from the iOS App Store. Only available on Google Play.
You can use it with a Bluetooth connection, but you cannot set up Google Assistant linkage or adaptive sound.
I don’t know what you can do with the app, but basically you just put the Pixel Buds A-Series in your ear and it connects via Bluetooth, so you won’t feel any inconvenience using it.
About usability
This is the second time I have purchased Bluetooth earphones and I have no complaints.
I use it for watching YouTube on the bus or train while commuting.
There is no problem with the fit, and the sound quality is not bad.
However, if you compare them with various earphones and headphones in a quiet room, you may feel a slight difference.
I had no problem listening outside, in the noise of trains and crowds.
About battery life
Battery life is ridiculously good.
Quoted from the official page
Earbuds: Up to 5 hours of music or up to 2.5 hours of talk time
With charging case: Up to 24 hours of music or up to 12 hours of talk time
A 15-minute charge with the earbuds in the charging case gives you up to 3 hours of music or up to 1.5 hours of talk time

About English reviews
This is my first time trying to write a review in English.
I don’t know if this review article will be useful, and I don’t know if it will be read by people overseas. Of course, I don’t know if it will hit Google.
This time, the purpose of challenging the English review is because I wanted to aim for inflow from overseas in order to increase access.
If you are overseas and read this review, I would be happy if you could give me your impressions and comments.
