Ratings and reviews

After the latest update on my Google Pixel 7a, one of the earbuds always plays music at a lower volume than the other. Even after some resets. The functionality, such as the in-ear controls, no longer works—I can't stop or adjust the volume. It's worse than any other brand I've tried. I'm really disappointed, and it seems to be a software issue.

Why remove the touch & hold reading notification option suddenly is something that's beyond my understanding. It was such a crucial feature that me along with a ton of other people used. Saying "read my notifications" now is annoying and doesn't always work. Plus, its only for messages whereas the earlier one could read other notifications as well, like livescores, binance and so on. Google, please bring back this feature!

Well, I did eventually get some a-series buds. They're decent, but it doesn't have touch for notifications anymore. I use these when riding my bike, running, and other exercises, and trying to talk to the Google Assistant to get notifications is cumbersome and impractical during almost every activity I use them for.
