When we reviewed theAmazon Echo Buds (2nd Gen)we said that they were great value for money, and we urged you to look out for deals so you could get them even cheaper.Amazonis running one of those deals right now, and that means you can get Amazon’sbest wireless earbudsfor half price – just £54.99.
The deal applies to both colours, black and white, and it’s a serious saving. It makes the Amazon buds even cheaper thanSony’s WF-C500, and less than a third of the price ofApple’sAirPods (3rd Gen).
Are the Amazon Echo Buds (2nd gen) worth buying?
Yes, especially if you likeAlexa. The battery life and noise cancelling aren’t up there with more expensive rivals but they’re not terrible and we think these are thebest cheap headphonesfor Alexa users thanks to their hands-free voice control. Whether you’re asking questions, controlling your smart home or just changing music, you can do it all without having to touch anything.
Water resistance means these are pretty good workout earbuds too, and they’re comfortable to wear even for longer periods: the second generation redesigned them to reduce in-ear air pressure and the difference is quite dramatic. You can expect about 5 hours from a full charge, rising to 6.5 hours if you turn off noise cancelling and Alexa’s wake-word feature.
The deal is currentlylive on Amazon UK. As ever with Amazon it’s worth buying sooner if the price is right for you; these deals tend to be time limited and there can be long gaps before the price comes down again.
