Creative Pebble 2.0 USB-Powered Desktop Speakers with Far-Field Drivers and Passive Radiators for PCs and Laptops (Black)

I’ve been using the Creative Pebble desktop speakers for a while now, and I have to say—they’re one of the best budget audio purchases I’ve made. Right out of the box, they look sleek and minimal, with a modern design that fits effortlessly on a desk without taking up much space. The spherical shape is not just for looks—the 45° angled drivers actually make a difference by directing sound toward your ears, creating a more immersive listening experience.The sound quality is genuinely impressive for such small and affordable speakers. The audio is crisp and clear, with surprisingly decent bass for something that doesn’t include a separate subwoofer. Midrange is warm and balanced, making them great for music, YouTube, Zoom calls, and even some light gaming. While they’re obviously not studio monitors, the quality is more than enough for everyday use.I also love how simple they are to use. They’re powered via USB and use a standard 3.5mm jack for audio, so no need for an outlet or any complicated setup. The front-facing volume knob is a small but very convenient touch.For anyone looking to upgrade from built-in laptop or monitor speakers, the Creative Pebble is a fantastic option. Affordable, stylish, and surprisingly powerful.

The Creative Pebble are an attractive pair of speakers. The black version does show dust quite readily and the exposed drives make it a bit fragile but if you take care of them then you should be fine.The volume control on the right speaker works really well. I point this out because on a lot of speakers the potentiometer for the volume knob produces an imbalance effect between the two speaker levels at lower volumes but I didn't detect this behavior on the Pebble. The only minor issue here is that the speakers take about four seconds to produce sound once you turn them on and aren't audible instantaneously.As for audio quality, it's acceptable for the price. The treble and upper mid-range performance is strong, which produces a bright, detailed, and airy presentation. The sound is let down by subpar low-mid and bass performance, which is to be expected of such small, low-powered speakers. The bass performance is improved if you sit further than six feet from the speakers but this would be impractical for desk use, which is what these speakers are designed for. Still, for a lot of casual use cases, the audio quality is adequate. The speakers don't get very loud without distorting but, again, that is to be expected.Overall, I think the Creative Pebble are a good pair of budget speakers at an affordable price. I personally don't think you should be getting the V2, V3, or the Plus model as they seem increasingly worse value considering what you're getting in return for the extra price. The base model is the sweet spot in terms of price to performance and is the one I'd recommend to most users on a budget.

The speaker's build quality is impressively durable, making it a suitable option as a secondary computer speaker. The volume control is both responsive and user-friendly, allowing for precise audio adjustments. However, it is essential to be aware that the audio clarity tends to decrease at higher volume levels. Specifically, when the volume surpasses 80%, the sound quality becomes noticeably compromised. Despite this drawback, given its budget-friendly price and compact design, the speaker offers exceptional value, justifying a rating of 5 out of 5. It remains an excellent choice for its price range and size.

perfect, if you want speakers for your laptop, sound quality and value for money, look everything perfectjust one thing to make sure, that you use a good power source like a proper power adapter for them and don't connect them to laptop's usb port, that won't give them enough power to work and it can also create interference issues, there was buzz sound in them but with a proper wall adapter they are working perfectly fine.

Good sound quality

Now that the return window has closed and I can't return this, I'm coming back to write this review.A soft static noise has started coming out of the speakers. Right one more, left one less.The noise increases with volume.Maybe mine is a defective one, but it started a month later, so beware guys.

Sound is good, clear but at full sound it's getting a little distort

The media could not be loaded. Best speaker in this price range...Fill like woofer sound. . .I like bass ...
