Amazon is once again offering a huge price cut on its newest-generation Echo Buds earphones as part of its Spring Sale event.
The wireless Echo Buds, which usually retail for £129.99, are now available for £44.99 – that's a 65% saving. This offer is open to all, so you won't need to be a Prime member to get the discounted price.
What are the Echo Buds?
Amazon's Echo Buds are a pair of true wireless earbuds that come loaded with everything the Alexa voice assistant has to offer.
Just as you would with an Echo smart speaker, you can control these earbuds entirely by voice. You can use a simple command to change the music, answer burning questions or switch on smart home tech like your Philips Hue lights.
The Echo Buds are also some of the smartest earbuds you can buy, and they boast solid specs. They have noise-cancellation, they're IPX4 water resistant and you can use them to take and make calls.
The earbuds last for about 5 hours of playback at a time and up to 15 hours of music when stored in the wireless charging case.
What to Read Next
We've tried these out and loved having hands-free access to Alexa's smart capabilities. Skipping between songs on the fly has never been easier because we didn't need to reach for a phone or fiddle with touch controls.
To add to that, we thought they were comfortable to wear and they stayed secure even during workouts.
The sound quality may not match the pricey flagship products from Sony or Bose, but we still thought our playlists sounded crisp, clear and punchy. Plus there's an equaliser to adjust the audio depending on what we were listening to.
Is this a good deal?
This is a superb deal – while the Echo Buds have been discounted to under £40 in the past, that pricing was only available to Prime members during last year's Spring Sale during a very short time window.
This year's Spring Sale deal matches the pricing the Echo Buds were listed for during Prime Day and Black Friday in 2024, so this offer price point still makes them very affordable.
