Crossbeats Pebble Review – Great Sound In Budget

The CrossBeats Pebble is available at a price of Rs. 3,999 in India. It can be purchased in three different colours, including Black, Grey and Jade.

Also, the earbuds can be purchased online through the official website of CrossBeats and eCommerce sites like Amazon, Flipkart, Croma, etc.

Here’s all that you will find in the box of CrossBeats Pebble:

• Earbuds
• Charging Case
• Type C Charging Cable
• Quick Start Guide
• Safety Brochure
• Three extra pairs of eartips

Before diving deeper into the CrossBeats Pebble review, let’s have a look at the specs:

• Connectivity: Bluetooth V5.0
• Supported OS: Android, iOS
• Battery: Up to 20 hours of playback time
• Weight: 140 grams

Starting with the charging case, the CrossBeats Pebble features an oval-shaped case and is made up of rock-solid plastic. The build quality is amazing and you don’t have to worry about it getting scratched or the hinge being loose, even after rigorous usage. The charging case also has a small leather strap attached to it for holding or carrying it.

The strap, with time, can become torn or loose, but that does not really matter when you are getting such a durable charging case. Talking about the size of the case, it is quite compact and can easily fit into your pocket. At the back of the case, you can find a Type-C charging port. There is also a LED light at the back that tells about the battery status.

Coming to the earbuds, they feature the usual round shape with silicone eartips. The highlight of the earbuds is the copper-plated touch plate that you can use to give commands or perform actions. It is quite responsive. There are also LED lights on both earbuds that tells about the pairing status.

The buds are quite comfortable in the ears. As a result, you can keep them wearing the buds for long, stretched hours. Also, the fit is so good that no matter what day-to-day activities you are doing, the buds won’t fall. However, you need to find your right fit first.

The earbud is designed to work in all weather and conditions, no matter rain, dust, or sweat, and comes with an IPX6 rating.

Next, in my CrossBeats Pebble review, I will talk about the audio quality. You get 9mm, audio drivers with earbuds that can offer an immersive sound experience. The graphene drivers are known to offer deep double bass effects that will throw in the best thumping and pumping into every track you hear.

I tested the buds against different genres of songs, including hip-hop, rock, Bollywood, Hollywood, Jazz and more and really like the audio quality in all the cases. The CrossBeats Pebble offers a detailed sound. The mids and lows are perfectly balanced. The high might appear a bit loud at times.

Both earbuds come with a microphone and can offer a decent call experience. In my case, the person on the other end was able to hear my voice and vice versa.

However, in a much-crowded space, it became a bit difficult to have a good calling experience. But the overall audio quality offered by the CrossBeats Pebble is simply amazing.

Now, talking about the playback time and charging in my CrossBeats Pebble review. The brand claims to be offering 20 hours of playback time with the charging case and 5 hours of playback time with the earbuds, making a total of 25 hours of playback time.

The battery life is quite amazing when compared to the competitors. In practical usage, I was able to get around 24 hours of battery life which is near to what the brand has claimed. Also, I used the buds at 80 per cent volume throughout and got around four and a half hours of playback time with them.

Coming to the charging time, the CrossBeats Pebble takes around one hour and fifteen minutes to be fully charged. It also supports fast charging. So, you can two hours of playback time in just 10 minutes of charge. Furthermore, the case can offer up to four additional full charges to the buds.

The CrossBeats Pebble comes with Bluetooth 5.0. The connection is secure, but at times, either of the buds gets disconnected on its own. However, this instance is very rare. Pairing the bud is, again, easy.

The earbuds also come with two different modes- Mono and Stereo, and you can switch between them depending on your requirement. But if you wish to switch between the modes, you will have to reset the buds and pair them again. I felt it was a bit annoying.

The earbuds have very responsive control. Pressing either of the buds once will play or pause the music. When you double-press the buds, it will change to the next track. Triple pressing will increase or decrease the volume. And when you press and hold the buds for two seconds, it will activate voice assistants like Siri and OK Google.

There is no dedicated companion app for the CrossBeats Pebble.
