New Google Pixel Buds now official
Comes with Adaptive Sound, Real-Time Translation
We knew it’ll take a while to arrive but now, the new Google Pixel Buds are finally here.
From the announcement, we already knew that it’s going to follow the recent trend of truewireless (TWS) earphones. We also knew that it will retail for US$ 179. But here are more information about Google’s new tech for your ears.
Best of in-ear and earbud styles
One of people’s considerations when getting TWS earphones is if it’s in-ear or it’s earbuds. The former tends to penetrate your ears more while the latter is a less intrusive option. Google decided to take the best of these two designs for the new Pixel Buds.
The eartips gently seal the ears to isolate outside noises while also delivering a powerful sound. The spatial vents reduce that plugged-ear feeling, and let through just the right amount of environmental sound so you can stay aware.
To ensure a good fit, Google included eartips in three sizes. The design of the eartips was formed after scanning thousands of ears and was crafted with comfort in mind. Each earbud’s stabilizer arc gently tucks in the ear, and together with the soft-fit eartip, help the new Pixel Buds stay put.
Clear and adaptive sound
Just like every other TWS earbud, the new Pixel Buds promise clear sound no matter the condition of your environment. They do through dual beamforming microphones that focus on your voice, and a voice accelerometer to detect the vibrations of your jawbone when you’re talking.
It also has Adaptive Sound that dynamically and subtly adjusts the volume as you move between quiet and noisy environments, so you don’t have to constantly raise or lower the volume. It adjusts for sustained noise rather than one-off background noise for a non-disruptive listening experience. Manually adjusting the volume will temporarily disable Adaptive Sound to respect your settings.
Touch controls and smart features
If you’ve ever used TWS earphones before, then this should be familiar. Tap your earbud once to play/pause, twice to skip, three times to rewind, or swipe to adjust volume. Controls are identical on both earbuds.
Since it’s a Google product, the Google Assistant is naturally incorporated. Just say “Hey Google” or touch and hold either earbud while you speak to start your workout music, continue a podcast, or send a quick reply.
But perhaps one of the most important features is its Real-Time Translation. Say “Hey Google, help me speak Korean” to start a conversation. You can get real-time translation right in your ear while using a Pixel or any Android 6.0+ phone
Additionally, the new Pixel Buds =are water and sweat resistant. It also promises a rather dismal 5-hour listening time on a single charge, with 24 hours more on the charging case. A 10-min charge in the case gives you two hours of listening time, and an hour will give you a full charge. The buds are also Qi Certified for wireless charging.
Pricing and availability
As mentioned earlier, The new Pixel Buds will retail for US$ 179 and willl be available through the Google Store and retailers including AT&T, Best Buy, Target (coming early May), T-Mobile, US Cellular, Verizon, and Walmart.
Only the Clearly White variant is available at the moment. The Almost Black, Quite Mint and Oh So Orange will be available in the coming months. Availability in other countries will follow in the coming months as well.

Hollyland announces LARK M3 for multi-camera, multi-person setups
Scalable wireless audio system configurable up to 4 transmitters, 4 receivers
Hollyland has announced the LARK M3, a flexible and scalable wireless audio system designed for multi-camera, multi-person productions.
Rather than functioning as a single wireless microphone, the LARK M3 can be a one-to-many or many-to-one audio system.
This way, it can capture group interviews, podcasts, multi-person content, and multi-camera shoots with a setup that easily adapts to the number of people and devices involved.
At the core of LARK M3 is its multi-transmitter and multi-receiver architecture. Up to four transmitters can connect to a single receiver. Each person can wear their own mic and be recorded independently.
Conversely, one transmitter can connect to up to four receivers simultaneously. A single speaker’s voice can be captured by multiple cameras or smartphones at once.
That flexibility extends into post-production through four-track independent recording. When paired with the hot shoe adapter, or by connecting a USB-C or Camera receiver to a computer, LARK M3 delivers four isolated audio tracks. This gives editors full control to adjust each speaker’s volume and sound separately.
Ultra-portable professional-grade audio
The LARK M3 pairs studio-level specs with an easy-to-use design. It can record at 48kHz/32-bit with a 70dB signal-to-noise ratio and 125dB max SPL.
The system uses Hollyland’s Hollyland’s proprietary HDT wireless technology to move audio data 50% faster for richer, clearer sound over distances of up to 300m.
AI noise cancellation can suppress wind, traffic, running water, and other background noise across three adjustable levels.
Custom voice tuning provides one-tap vocal enhancement for all transmitters, along with eight vocal presets. Each preset can be customized in the app as well.
Auto-Limit Clip Protection keeps volume levels stable across dynamic ranges, while a Primary/Secondary receiver setup is designed to prevent recording interruptions, meaning if the Primary RX drops out, a Secondary RX instantly takes over.

70mai launches the A900 series with 4K front, rear recording
Two new 4K dual-channel dash cams, both with 4G
70mai has launched the A900 Series, led by the flagship 70mai Dash Cam 4K A900 Ultra, with the 70mai Dash Cam 4K A900 joining it in the lineup.
Both models record in 4K from the front and rear cameras, and both support 4G, so your footage stays reachable from your phone even when you’re away from the car.
4K recording from both cameras
The A900 Ultra uses dual Sony STARVIS 2 IMX678 sensors to capture clear 4K footage from both directions. As a result, details like license plates and road signs remain sharp.
Smart HDR balances bright and dark areas under shifting light. Users can also adjust color tones and contrast. To keep feeds synced, the rear camera uses LVDS digital transmission. This tech sends a lossless 4K feed with just 20ms of latency.
Handling changing light
Driving into a tunnel or under the shadow of a tall building changes the lighting quickly, and 70mai built three imaging technologies into the A900 Ultra to deal with it.
MaiColor Vivid+ Solution 2.0 is meant to give more natural colors and finer detail, along with smarter scene adaptation. Night Owl Vision 2.0 reduces noise and glare to help with nighttime clarity.
Lumi Vision is made for parking surveillance in near-total darkness, where it automatically adjusts exposure and gain and applies noise reduction. 70mai says this produces clear, full-color footage in extremely low light.
Parking mode and remote access
Smart Parking Guardian Mode 2.0 protects your vehicle while parked. It combines AI motion detection, dual-channel collision detection with pre-recording, and time-lapse options.
The system draws just 5mA on standby to prevent battery drain. For extended coverage, the optional 70mai Battery Pack Mini powers surveillance for up to 30 days.
Pairing the camera with the 4G Hardwire Kit unlocks 70mai 4G Cloud+ 2.0 features on the app. Enhanced Buffered Emergency Recording saves up to 190 seconds before an incident and 30 seconds after.
It automatically uploads this footage to the cloud for immediate remote viewing.
The 70mai Dash Cam 4K A900
The A900 sits alongside the Ultra as the more accessible option. It records True 4K HDR at 30FPS from both the front and rear cameras, and Smart HDR can be scheduled to turn on at set times.
Its f/1.55 aperture is meant to help in low light, and 4G Cloud+ 2.0 keeps the dash cam connected to the 70mai App. It’s the model for drivers who want dual-channel recording and 4G connectivity at a lower price.
The 70mai Dash Cam 4K A900 Ultra retails for US$ 300, available for pre-order at US$ 240. Meanwhile, the A900 is priced at US$ 200, currently 20% off at US$ 170.
