Apple's AirPods (http://mashable.com/category/airpods/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) pair perfectly with iPhones, but what do you get if you own a Google Pixel 2 (http://mashable.com/2017/10/17/google-pixel-2-xl-review/)? As of now, that's a no-brainer: Pixel Buds (http://mashable.com/2017/10/06/google-pixel-buds-apple-ai/).
Google's own take on wireless earbuds isn't just great for music — the headphones sound a little better than AirPods — but they're also loaded with intelligence thanks to the company's Assistant (http://mashable.com/category/google-assistant/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) and real-time translation features that could change communication (http://mashable.com/2017/10/19/google-pixel-buds-game-changer-hands-on/?utm_campaign&utm_context=textlink&utm_medium=rss&utm_source) as we know it.

It's impossible to test out the Pixel Buds and not compare them to AirPods. They share many similarities and differences.*
They both cost $159, which is really reasonable for wireless earbuds. Many others wireless earbud models, like the Samsung Gear IconX (http://mashable.com/2017/10/30/samsung-gear-iconx-2018-wireless-earbuds-review/), cost $199 or more. Read more...
