The 2023 version of the Echo Buds from Amazon are now half-price. Despite the massive price reduction, you still get true wireless Bluetooth 5.2 technology for a seamless listening experience. The integration with Alexa is another big win, guaranteeing a pleasant hands-free operation.

The Amazon Echo Buds review scored the wireless buds a solid four out of five stars. They look very similar to Apple AirPods but without the classy finish and design touches. Rather than fitting in the inner ear, like most other earbuds, Amazon's offering are actually a little larger and fit inside the outer ear. This negates the need for any expensive or fancy ambient or transparency mode.

The earbuds ship in a square charging case with a USB-C port and an additional pair of rubber ear tips. One of the best things about these buds is that they integrate with Alexa voice support for excellent hands-free operation.
