Get Amazon’s 2nd-gen Echo Buds for a bargain price

Amazon is already running early Black Friday deals, and one that sticks out for us is for its 2nd-gen Echo Buds Bluetooth earphones.

They’re down to $69.99 in the US and just £59.99 in the UK. That’s a big saving considering that the Echo Buds are only $119.99/£109.99 to begin with, and there are savings to be had on the more expensive version that comes with a case that supports wireless charging.

In the US, it means the wired charging Echo Buds, available in either white or black, are 42% off. If you’d rather a case that supports wireless charging it’ll cost you $89, down from a usual price of $139, for a 36% saving.

Savings are similar in the UK, though percentage-wise are technically a little better. The wired charging Buds are currently £59.99, a 45% saving, while the wireless option costs only £69.99 – a 46% drop from the usual £129 price.

The Echo Buds 2 launched only last year, so they’re still recent, and they impressed us enough toget a 4-star review. We found them surprisingly comfortable and loved the built-in, hands-free Alexa integration – and they even include active noise-cancelling.

Of course, there are plenty of other Black Friday deals, including headphones, so be sure to take a look at thebest we’ve found so far.
