Snag the great-sounding $49 Google Pixel Buds A-Series for half price this Black Friday

This Black Friday you can buy Google’s budget-friendly Pixel Buds A-Series, which get a 50% discount over their usual price. The Pixel Buds A-Series in white are now $50 off for Black Friday. 

That brings their price down from $100 to $50 The other three colorways, including the dark olive shown here, are also on sale, this time for $40 off.  The white Pixel Buds A-Series are at their best price ever, and a great value for Android users.

As a refresher, the Pixel Buds A-Series were originally released in June of 2021 as the first budget entry in Google’s earbud lineup. They dropped a few key features like active noise cancellation and transparency mode to drive the cost down, and the result was a pair of buds that are perfectly capable for casual listeners.

Audio quality is surprisingly solid on the A-Series, as is the fit in your ears and touch controls on either bud. They sport an IPX4 splash resistance rating so they’re safe against sweat, and battery life can get you through a full day, albeit with not much room to spare. And while there’s no wireless charging, at least you’ve got a handy USB-C port on the bottom to charge back up.

The Pixel Buds A-Series also come with all the Google features you’d expect like Fast Pair, Google Assistant integration, and Find My Device support. This makes them ideal for Android users who need a good pair of reliable earbuds to toss in their bag.

This is definitely one of the best deals we’ve ever seen for a pair of earbuds, so if you think the Pixel Buds A-Series would make an ideal gift for someone you know, you might want to pick them up soon  — they could disappear pretty quickly.
