In a lot of areas related to our digital life, Google is a leader. When you stop to think about it, it’s practically hard, or at least very challenging, to go through a day without coming into contact with a variety of Google ecosystem components, from search and office productivity to your mobile device. However, we feel that the Google empire is noticeably lacking when it comes to music. We made our Google audio wishlist for 2024 for this reason.
A Brand-New Audio Speaker for The House
You may have wished for more speakers if you’ve constructed an automated home using Nest and Google Assistant components. Even while the company’s Nest Audio speakers generally have good sound quality, a $99 speaker with a 3.5-inch woofer can only do so much. More somber listeners’ needs were formerly met by Google’s Home Max, but the device was abandoned in 2021 and no appropriate replacement has been given by the firm since.
Google ought to look to the brand-new, fantastic Sonos Era 300 for ideas. With support for Dolby Atmos, it’s a feature-rich and potent smart speaker that can play music that makes use of the expanding immersive audio standard. Nevertheless, the $499 price tag of the Era 300 may turn off some buyers, and some may consider its look to be a little dated. Therefore, I’d like to see Google introduce a more stylish Atmos speaker that costs a little less than the Era 300 and has flexible home theater features and whole-house audio connection.
A Dolby Atmos Soundbar
By volume, soundbars now make up about 25% of home audio purchases. It’s understandable why. Excellent ones can produce genuinely immersive home theater and music experiences, and they’re easy to install and configure. It’s almost late, and Google has sadly not shown up for the soundbar party yet.
Why isn’t Google in the soundbar game if established companies like Bose, Vizio, and Sonos are in it? These three companies sell a variety of soundbars, including the newest Atmos models. Although there are many of excellent soundbar options available, this is not much of a comfort if the rest of your smart home is based on Google products and you want to maintain this integration for smooth running.
Three Pixel over-the-ear Headphones
While earbuds are excellent for on-the-go use, full-size over-the-ear headphones are typically preferred for their superior fit and sound quality whether listening at home or at the workplace. Google proved it could produce high-quality earbuds with functional active noise cancellation (ANC) with the Pixel Buds Pro. I’d like to see the same level of skill put into an over-the-ear model from the massive Alphabet corporation.
Naturally, audiophile-caliber sound quality combined with a well-balanced and detailed performance would be the hallmark of our ideal Pixel headphones. Comfort is important for extended periods, and Google might be able to provide something that strikes a decent compromise between an all-day feathery fit and a tight seal for active noise cancellation. With their superior on-board microphones, Google headphones would be the ideal partner for Google Assistant and a wide range of workplace duties, such as conference calls and noise cancellation for coworkers or children.
Four Home Theater Integration
Google announced back in 2020 that it was developing a feature that would allow Nest speakers to be used as Chromecast home theater speakers. The idea behind this is that you can utilize any number of Nest speakers to set up a Chromecast-powered home theater sound system. Naturally, support for Google Assistant and the Google Home app would be part of such a system.
For now, there may be a workaround that enables you to connect your Nest speakers to your Chromecast device using Google TV. On the other hand, not all devices are compatible with it, and some users have reported issues with functionality. That may assist to clarify why Google hasn’t carried out an official roll-out as of yet. We would adore the appropriate and effective release of this functionality.
5 Google Assistant Offers Great Audio Features and Bard AI
AI everywhere
About Bard AI, its expanding feature set, and the possibility that Bard features will be included to Google Assistant. Currently, Assistant is mostly task- and command-based, and although it functions effectively, its applicability is somewhat constrained. To put it another way, Google Assistant lacks intelligence at this time.
Yes, you can use your Pixel Buds Pro to send commands or start playing music on Nest devices, but those are just the very beginnings. Imagine if your Google Assistant was powered by AI and could predict the media you want to play based on things like your voice tone or your activities within the Google ecosystem. It’s not even out of the question to imagine Assistant, or a rebranded version of it, creating personalized music to go with your routines and emotions.
