Equipped with 12mm drivers, these Echo Buds provide clear audio for music and podcasts. They're also lightweight (just over .17 ounces) and made from IPX2 sweat-resistant material, making them well-suited for sweaty workouts. However, their semi-in-ear design received mixed reviews, with some users saying they tend to fall out. 

Through the companion app, you can enable or disable features such as Find My, which can help locate misplaced buds. You can also use hands-free voice commands via Alexa and easily switch between different Bluetooth devices. While Alexa users will get the most out of integrated features, these earbuds are also compatible with Google Assistant and Siri.

Battery life lasts up to 5 hours per charge, or up to 20 hours with the included charging case. A fast-charging feature gives you 2 hours of power in just 15 minutes. You can also customize tap controls to mute or answer a call and to skip songs. 

What do you think so far?

The sound quality might not satisfy audiophiles used to bass-heavy brands like Sony or JBL, and these buds don’t offer active noise cancellation. Some users also report that the mic struggles in busy or windy areas. Still, for $20, they're not a bad option at all.

Looking for something else? Retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, and Home Depot have Prime Day competition sales that are especially useful if you don’t have Amazon Prime.

  • Walmart’s Prime Day competition sale runs through Sunday, July 13 and includes deals up to 50% off. It’s an especially good option if you have Walmart+. 

  • Best Buy’s Prime Day competition sale, “Black Friday in July,” runs through Sunday, July 13 and has some of the best tech sales online. It’s an especially good option if you’re a My Best Buy “Plus” or “Total” member.
