These Echo Buds are rain and sweat resistant, which allows use for indoor or outdoor sports. They are equipped with a sensor port that interrupts playback when the earphones are removed and restarts as soon as they are put back in place.

The Echo Buds on sale from 80 euros for the launch

Echo Buds deliver up to five hours ofautonomy when using noise reduction and the Alexa assistant together in hands-free mode, and up to six and a half hours if these functions are deactivated. The box provides two additional charges.

Besides listening to music (Amazon music, Apple Music, Deezer, Spotify), podcasts and other audio books (via Amazon’s Audible service), the Echo Buds can also be used to make and take phone calls. They are obviously compatible with the voice assistant Alexa thanks to a passive listening system which allows it to be activated with a simple voice command.
