These speakers are remarkably well balanced - and provide an incredible amount of clarity at their softest (which is much quieter than other speakers at this price point) and loudest (no distortion, granted, I haven't had much reason to test their upper limits). The bass is perfect at close proximity. It sounds much more treble at a distance, but the speakers are obviously oriented to serve one pair of ears sitting near the source - and they do that marvelously.
HUGE QUESTION!! So since this all done by usb-c, if I plug them into my ps5, would it work? Because I play using a monitor so if it does work, I don’t know if I’ll get better audio i they are plugged into my ps5 or monitor. Update: It works perfectly!
Good question. Unfortunately we don't have a PS5 to confirm, but most USB audio interfaces are quite universal and don't need drivers. I don't think you'll get better audio from either. Honestly, pairing a cheap set of desktop speakers with a top end gaming console seems like a waste. I'd recommend decent headphones, or a budget surround system, for superior sound.
how much is the difference in sound volume between the V1 , V2 and the v3 ? cause i dont see much of a difference between the v2 and v3 aside from the bluetooth function
Can i ask.i connected them with adaptor usb to type c on 3.2 port usb on my computer.when connected via bluetoooth the blue light pulsing the high gain and the sound is awesome.when i press the bt button to chance the connection to the usb th bluee light of high gain stands still that means i still have high gain sound but the volume is much lower than the bt connection.why?
@@sizzlechestmcmurphy4365 I have both!! The pebble plus is still much better for real bass if you need that, but it has a lot of wires. The pebble v3 is great for the size with a decent amount of bass, and is more tidy. Depends on what you need more. Any questions, let me know!
@@JustLimAnD I'm just looking for something to provide sound that's better than the speakers in my monitor (which is not a particularly high bar.) I don't really need large amounts of bass as I've got proper headphones for anything requiring high end sound. Is there a noticeable difference between the two sets as far as the cables?
@@sizzlechestmcmurphy4365 oh then you'll do fine with the pebble v3, there were actually instances when I would prefer to use my older creative USB speakers (not even pebbles), which had almost no bass, just because that's the sound I wanted for times such as late night movies. However, that's not to say that the pebble plus is crazy booming, it's really well balanced and full. In terms of cables, if you're going to hide them behind your desk like I do, they won't make too much of a difference. But if out in the open and you like minimalistic with less clutter, the pebble v3 is neater.
Hi, great video! Do you think these speakers are good enough for a small home theater setup? I use an Xgimi Mogo projector in my bedroom, and am looking for a speaker that is more powerful than the ones that are built in to the projector. I have to sometimes max out the volume on the projector's built in speakers and the dialogue from movies are sometimes hard to make out clearly.
To be honest, I don't think they'll be any better, or only marginally. Dialogue on some modern movies is hard to make out even on big home cinema surround setups!
I want to keep a pair of speakers connected to my computer, while having Bluetooth for my phone. Do you think this is a good choice? Does the input source switching between aux-in and Bluetooth smooth? I don't want to have to get out my bed just to press that button so I can connect to my phone... and after disconnecting Bluetooth, do you have to do anything for the sound from the computer to come on?
@@samuelyeet6006 they are a little bigger than v1. No piano Black finish at the center and looking at specs v3 have 8watts of power while v1 Has 4.4 watts.
thanks for the review, I'm thinking of getting these to use occasionally for music production when I have to set up somewhere remotely away from my studio. I know they're no way near professional sounding (I'll mostly be using headphones) but to playback music occasionally are they relatively well balanced?
@@MakeUseOf Totally get that recording quality might not do the speakers justice. Guess it's the classic case of "be damned if you do and damned if you don't"! haha
Sounds like you need to improve your neurodiversity awareness… you never know what conditions someone might have, never know what someone is going through mentally, best thing to do is not to rush to judgement. Thought this guy did a great job 👍🏼
Man i bought these speakers and regret wasting my money on them they sound pretty tini and annoying, listening to music more than 30min gives me a headache, like theres zero bass and too much high treble, also i used them in my room at night and theres an annoying pulsating blue light when the bluetooth is connected i just ended up putting some masking tape over it. Also the speakers are pretty large like the size of lawn bowl balls, they should be called boulders not pebbles. Better to just fork out and get like a portable speaker like a jbl flip, boom , bose or whatever else.
These are £28 for a reason and that reason is that you get £28 worth of quality and no more. Just bought these on 08/10/22 and I am disappointed as this channel and quite a few others said they were good. The bass is terrible. If you have little cash and need 'something' then they look okay on your desk. Other than that do some overtime and get some decent speakers as they sound rubbish.
I purchased 2.0 speakers "Pebble" for my computer in August 2020. After a year and two months, an annoying, steady squeak comes out of the speakers. Of course, they have a 1-year manufacturer's warranty. I will never buy anything related to this company again. I do not recommend anyone. Choose any other company but not this one.
@@dannymcclain4623 Because my speakers are on the desk and easier to reach than hunting around under the desk for the port on my PC; and because speakers usually have a volume control, and it's easier to use that than to mess around with individual app volumes in software.

for desktop I prefer this more than many other expensive one, its well balanced,

Is it decent audio quality ?
@@CmPuke101_ Oh yeah! And decently loud enough, I always use them while gaming and I love them

thats what i was thinking
Is that a ten year journal? I did two of those. Crazy to look at now.
Hi should I buy pebble plus 2.1 or v3? I have alexa at home as well for playing Bluetooth content from phone.
Awesome budget Speakers, they are a part of my Minimalistic Desk Setup! Good Video!

Would you recommend them over the Logitech Z313 for gaming and general use?
Next year I'm going to buy this model or Edifier R19BT in Japan.
V3
Hey thanks for this! I'm looking at these versus the Creative Pebble Plus ... any thoughts?
I'm considering the same two sets. I'm leaning towards the slightly larger, more powerful speakers of the V3.

@@JustLimAnD Hi, I was wondering if you could spare a moment to talk about the sound quality of v3 wired vs. bluetooth?
Do they come with aux cable to plug into back of monitor via 3.5?
if you connect a phone in 1/8 socket , does bluetooth and usb pc sound cuts ??? or if bluetooth is used , does usb sound cuts?
will these stay on after the blutooth is disconnected? i need something that stays powered on at all times.
If I power it via the USB-PD port (wall adapter), can I use the Pebbles's other USB-C port to charge my phone?

just to help out, you should probably get some acoustic foam, and add a rug into your room. Its just very echoey

Do they sound better then the V1? They are twice the price and i want to know if they are worth it....
@J-A idk if its called v1, but these are the v3, so the v1 and v2 i would assume right?
@J-A whats better then?

Can you use them on a desktop????
Can this be used with the sub like the v2
Bluetooth ile bağlanınca ışık sürekli yanıp sönüyor mu?
Yes
He is the illegitimate child of "The Wonder Years' teacher. That is an awesome pedigree.
At first I didn't get how it was usb and bluetooth 5.0, I think it's a very particular configuration to be honest
Would have been super helpful if there was a demo sound clip of how the speakers sound. The verbal descriptions can only do so much. :/
Noted! Though, that's pretty tricky given it depends entirely on the microphone used to record it, surely?
@@MakeUseOf Totally get that recording quality might not do the speakers justice. Guess it's the classic case of "be damned if you do and damned if you don't"! haha
it would just sound like your speakers
You show 2 cords while mine got 3 !!
