These ear buds are almost too good to be true! Incredible value
I bought these during Prime Day deals and I honestly feel like I stole them for the price I paid. Bought my wife a pair too. At the price I paid, it felt like I'd be getting some kind of cheap barely passable ear buds, but they are actually amazing. Its great to be able to ask your headphones to play a different song, or to control anything in your house integrated with Alexa. Overall awesome product. Surprised they don't cost more.

 These work great! I like the passthrough option so you can still hear your surroundings. It's nice having Alexa right in your ear too, hands free is always nice.

Has great noise cancellation too for when you don't want to hear what's around you.

So far the best earbuds I've owned, I got them on sale and the price was not bad at all. You can definitely spend a lot more money and get the same quality as these.

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost Great Ear Buds

Colour Name: BLACKStyle: Wired Charging CaseConfiguration: Echo BudsVerified Purchase
There are a lot of reviews about these Amazon Gen2 echo earbuds. Most say they are good/very good but not great. I have to agree. All the amazon features I would say are indeed great and quite easy to use with the Alexa app. I have Echos in the house and these work seamlessly with the echo earbuds. The sound is good but not great. Volume is good but at Hi, probably too high volume and some older music the sound to me seems tinny. The basic equalizer helps but should be improved to give a better more rich sound all around. The buds are comfortable and with the tips and wings its easy to get a good fit .Great for my bike workout, Audible books and general music listening and still be tech connected to all amazon features, They even reduce volume when my home phone rings. The mics are quite sensitive and work well as does the customizable swipe gestures. I like the four month free Unlimited prime music that was included and will probably keep this. Though would like Two accounts instead of the one on the basic account. Overall I am pleased with these buds at the sale price. But if I want great sound, I guess I will have to get good over the ear headphones. I decided to go the Amazon route and these just add to my pleasure.

I am happy with my experience with the Echo Buds.

After tuning the EQ to my sound preference, I can say I am really happy with the sound quality. I use the passthrough mode every time on my commute and it works well, I can be listening to my music at a decent level and hear the transit announcements with ease. I can't speak about the noise cancellation as I pretty much never use it.

The fit is excellent, with the different tips and wings included plus the assistance of the "Ear Tip Sizing Test", I was able to find the perfect fit for myself.

Battery life is good, but not great as I've used earbuds with much longer battery life. Wireless charging is definitely a plus, it's not used often but having the option is good for me.

Touch controls are responsive and I like how only the centre of the outside is the sensitive part so I can adjust my earbuds if needed without any accidental touches.

I bought this a while ago to replace some aging earbuds of mine. Having used them for a while now I've decided I can write a review. The earbuds were relatively easy to setup and have decent battery life. That's about the only positives for theses buds though. While the earbuds have great battery it would seem the case doesn't. My case would often die and would need to be charged every night if I wanted to use the buds. It doesn't help that even if the earbuds are fully charged they don't seem to turn on if the case has no battery. The sound quality is alright but I find it lacking for the price. The ANC didn't really do much for me but I've never really used it in any of my other earbuds before. For now I have retired these buds to be used on my TV at night but as I mentioned before, I often have to plug the case in to get them to turn on. Based off of my experience, I can't recommend these.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nice but also not really
Reviewed in Canada on September 6, 2023
Colour Name: BLACKStyle: Wired Charging CaseConfiguration: Echo BudsVerified Purchase
Let's start this off with saying I actually kinda liked these when I first got them. But here I am sitting in the gym writing my first ever amazon review because I've unpaired these twice and the left earbud is completely muffled and doesn't allow any pass through or noise cancelling from the sound. Legit sounds like a blown speaker. I've been having issues with the left one charging for the past 2 weeks it blinks red and I have to take it out and reinsert it a couple times before it actually charges which is weird.

Did I mention this is my second set? The first one the left side stopped responding completely and never synced with the case. Now you probably think I must be doing something wrong but no, the right one gets all the use, I only wear the left at the gym and on the train. Where I've never dropped it or done anything that I would consider more than light use. Amazon replaced the first pair no problem but seeing as this is the second set I'm leaving this review. Also for some reason the paint is peeling off the case? I don't know why.

Now on to the review part where I say they actually sound nice and the ANC works great but there's been a tonne of little things that bother me with them. Randomly the ANC will freak out and make it feel like you need to pop your ears. If I answer a phone calls with them it takes at least 4 seconds for it to go from my phone to my ear bud, which is annoying to hear the other person say hello 5 times or I have to pull my phone out answer it first. My cheap ankor buds worked instantly. They are decently comfortable but I use the wings so after about 2 or 3 hours I have to take them out from ear fatigue

I knew the sound quality would be quite nice but I never expected it to be amazing. The equalizer in the Amazon app helps a ton to adjust to your own preference. Comparing to the AirPods Pro, I prefer the sound quality of the echo buds. The bass is crisp and punchy once you tune it. They connect just as good as the AirPods Pro.

However. The active noise cancellation, transparency mode is just average, there is no comparison versus the AirPods Pro. But, the echo buds fits so comfortably and because it fits so snug in your ear it almost acts like a ear plug it self.

Overall in summary:

Comparing to the AirPods Pro:
The positives

+ sound quality
+ comfort

The lacking

-active noise cancellation
-transparency mode
