With one full charge, Amazon says its Echo Buds will keep going for around five hours. And, when they do run out, the case holds up to three additional charges. Unfortunately, there’s no wireless charging case to be found here – so you won’t be able to top-up your case on the Qi charging boards in your local McDonalds or Starbucks, unlike the £ 199 AirPods With Wireless Charging Case, or £ (Samsung Galaxy Buds.)Another bonus of opting for the Echo Buds is the quick access to Alexa. Amazon is boasting that its Echo Buds use two outward-facing microphones and one microphone pointed inwards to reduce ambient noise to make your voice command come through loud-and-clear to Alexa – even if you’re in a busy train station, on a packed street, or at a house party.

When it comes to music, Echo Buds have two premium balanced armature drivers in each earbud. The driver design is inspired by in-ear monitors used by professional musicians to deliver crisp, clear vocals and dynamic bass, Amazon says.****************************************************************** **********************************
