Save $40 on Echo Buds
SAVE $40: Prime members: More deals are coming your way. As of June 16, get a pair of second-generation Echo Buds for only $79.99 — a $40 Prime-exclusive discount.
Amazon Prime members are being treated to some serious pre-Prime Day deals, and when it comes to Amazon devices, tons are on sale already. If you’re an Alexa-powered home, the second-generation Echo Buds will fit right into your existing tech setup — but if you’re not, they work with multiple voice assistants, too. These buds are a solid AirPods alternative, and they’re sitting at just $79.99 as of June 16.
The Echo Buds launched at a discount in May this year for $99, then jumped back up to the retail price of $119.99 shortly after. This deal is the first price drop we’ve seen on the latest Echo Buds (aside from their launch price), beating the previous low by $20. Since this deal is for Prime Day, it’ll probably be the only sale we’ll see for a while.
If you’re looking for budget-friendly, in-ear noise-canceling earbuds, definitely consider the second-gen Echo Buds. They sit comfortably in your ear and create a seal to cut out all the background noise. When paired with the active noise cancellation feature, you’ll be able to focus on whatever you’re doing, and not on all the external distractions around you.
As far as size goes, the Echo Buds are extremely compact — ideal as a smaller, lighter option for folks who want to switch from bulky over-ear headphones. The buds are designed to stay securely in your ear and move with you and they’re sweat resistant, so sweaty, heart-pumping workouts are no problem. They’ll last a good amount of time, too, with five hours on a single charge, and up to 15 hours when you use the included charging case. If you forget to charge your buds before a workout, just use the 15-minute quick charge feature, and you’ll get an extra two hours of playback.
If you’re an Alexa fan, these buds will fit right into your existing voice-control devices, but they’re also iOS and Android compatible. Choose between Google Assistant, Siri, and Alexa to manage your music, phone calls, and notifications hands-free.
Swap your bulky headphones for a pair of small, light Echo Buds, and make the most of this Prime member-exclusive deal while it lasts.
