Google’s entire Pixel Buds line is heavily discounted right now

By

Google Pixel Buds are a great alternative to AirPods and Samsung Galaxy Buds. If you have a Google Pixel phone, there really isn’t a better option in terms of compatibility and features. Both models of the Google Pixel Buds are on sale right now, one fore $79 and another for $160. Check them out below.

Google Pixel Buds A-Series — $79, was $99

The Google Pixel Buds A-Series are somewhat of a culmination of Google’s attempts to create an affordable set of earbuds, and at a competitive price, many people might say they managed to hit the nail on the head. Audio fidelity is great in the higher ranges, making this great for calls and vocals-heavy music, although it does suffer a bit in the mid and lower ranges. It also does have ANC, although it’s not competitive with some other earbuds, such as the ones from Samsung, but it does have a nice little feature that automatically changes the volume as you move through noisier and quieter environments. As for battery life, you can expect 5 hours in the earbuds and another 17 hours in the case, so you get about 24 hours of charge time in total, which is excellent.

Google Pixel Buds Pro — $160, was $200

Of course, if you’re willing to pay double the price, the Google Pixel Buds Pro are some of the best earbuds out there and is even a solid competitor when you look at the Pixel Buds Pro vs. Apple AirPods Pro, which is impressive. Sound quality is impressive, with a larger 12mm driver compared to the A-Series, and the ANC is competitive this time around when it comes to high-end earbuds. One downside is the lack of EQ support, although the default audio balance of the Buds Pro is pretty excellent. In terms of comfort, it’s some of the best, with many customization options in the Buds application, letting you adjust how exactly you want to control the earbuds. As for battery life, you get seven hours with ANC on, 11 hours with ANC off, and roughly nine hours or so in the case, which is a bit less than the A-series, but still nets you a total of roughly 20 hours of charge in total.

You can buy a 65-inch QLED 4K TV for under $500 right now
vizio 65 inch m series p quantum 4k tv amazon deal 55 2 768x768

Ten years ago, 4K was all the rage. These days, every TV on the market is 4K. The next step up is QLED, and that technology is quickly becoming cheaper too. Of course, awesome 4K TV deals help, like this price cut at Walmart that brings the 65-inch Vizio M6 down to $498 from its usual $678. If you want a large QLED TV from a respected brand, this is your chance to get one for cheap. Don't let this deal pass you by.

Why you should buy the 65-inch Vizio M6 QLED 4K TV
If you're not familiar with Vizio smart TVs and soundbars, the M-Series is its mid-tier offering which still manages to hit relatively budget-oriented pricing by using cheap tech smartly. For example, if you aren't familiar with QLED vs. OLED, where QLED shines is being able to light each individual pixel very brightly, allowing it to recreate colors better. On the other hand, OLED TVs can switch their pixels off completely, letting you get deeper blacks, which helps with the overall contrast. While both pieces of tech have their own advantages, and while OLED might come out slightly on top for image reproduction, QLED TVs are much cheaper and offer a close enough experience that you likely won't notice unless you have the two different panels side by side.
