Which is better – AirPods and Pixel Buds? – Headset Wholesale Supplier

Like Apple’s design on the iPhone 7, Google released the new Pixel 2 phone, and also removed the headphone hole design, and launched its own wireless headset Pixel Buds, and the Airpods are like twins, the price is also 159 US dollars, the endurance is similar. But if you look closely, the two products still have different advantages and disadvantages. When AirPods meets Pixel Buds, which one to buy before Christmas?

In terms of exterior design, the Pixel Buds headphone body is slightly larger. The advantage is that the space is not completely blocked by the ear canal, so you can hear more ambient sounds to ensure safety when traveling on the road. The disadvantage is poor anti-noise ability. It is more comfortable to wear than AirPods. Like Pixel phones, Pixel Buds are available in black, white and blue. It is similar to AirPods, and can be used as long as it is equipped with Android Marshmallow (6.0) or above.

Translation is a highlight of Pixel Buds. Google said that Pixel Buds can do “immediate translation” by pressing the Pixel Buds phone headset and the results of the translation will be broadcast by the Pixel phone speaker, and then talk to you. When people talk to the mobile phone, they will hear the translation result of the other party’s speech in the earphone. At present, they can translate a total of 40 languages. This function is not available in AirPods.

Pixel Buds can be used with any branded phone to listen to music. Android phones with Google Assistant can use the voice assistant function built into the headset. Tap the headset to wake up Google Assistant for navigation, reminder notifications, and notification messages. The selling point of Pixel Buds is to allow users to use voice assistants without taking out their phones.

Combining smart voice assistants with headphones is also a precedent. Previously Bose’s anti-noise headphones “QC 35 II” had been combined with Siri and Google Assistant, but did not support translation services; it is expected that in addition to wireless, gestures in future headsets Control, combined with intelligent voice assistants, is certainly one of the trends.

Pixel Buds also has a 5-hour battery life consistent with AirPods. The charging box can be filled with headphones for 4 times, and the total usage time is close to 24 hours. For long-haul flights, it is enough. We saw Pixel Buds add a cable between the two headphones, in addition to reducing the risk of loss, can also hang around the neck when not in use.
