The Pixel Buds A-series is a more budget-centric option than Google’s pricier Pixel Buds 2. So, it packs similar features as its elder sibling, although Google had to cut some corners to make the Buds A-series a more affordable option.

Google confirmed to release the Pixel Buds A in India on August 25 for a price of Rs. 9,999. It will be initially available to buy from Flipkart, Reliance Digital, and Tata Cliq. However, as per Google, the earbuds will be available in more retail outlets across India in the coming days.
