The wireless earphone “Echo Buds” will be on sale for 5980 yen on Amazon’s Prime Day, which starts at midnight on 7/12. The regular price is 12,980 yen, and even at the time sale festival, it is 9,980 yen. Up until now, I had a slightly higher impression, but 5980 yen is a big ant.
As of 7/11, the price is released only for models that do not support wireless charging. The price of the model that supports wireless charging will be updated following 7/12.

The Echo Buds are canal-type earphones that are worn by pushing them into your ears. Ear tips and wing tips of various sizes are available, so you can use it in the size that suits you. However, there will be a feeling of oppression (or foreign body sensation) unique to the canal type.
In addition, Echo Buds has the advantage of being able to use the voice assistant “Alexa”. However, Alexa cannot be used alone. The Alexa app or Amazon music app must be running on the device you are pairing with.
As the author, I was concerned regarding the oppressive feeling peculiar to the canal type. However, if you are accustomed to earphones, this may not be a problem.
The sound quality is at the level of “Well, isn’t it good?” There must be individual differences in how they feel, but I personally think that it is acceptable. Suffice it to say, the bass is emphasized, but it has a slightly artificial impression, and it sounded a little muffled from the midrange to the high range. Still, 5980 yen is enough ants.
There is some sound delay. There are two types of codecs, SBC and AAC (check with your Android smartphone). When I played the video, there were some scenes where I was worried regarding the delay and some scenes where I didn’t. You may be worried regarding it in the game.
Also, I’m worried regarding the reaction when tapping. For example, it took regarding 1 second before the play / stop operation was reflected. There is some resistance to using Alexa outside.
As for noise canceling, it’s only moderate. It’s certainly quieter, but not as messy. Also, if you enable ambient sound (external sound capture), you will be concerned regarding white noise. It may not be suitable for the purpose of shutting out the surrounding sounds.
There are a lot of things to worry regarding, but if it’s 5980 yen, the cost performance isn’t bad. As it is made by Amazon, it is more secure than the mysterious Chinese manufacturer. If you have been watching the situation so far, why not take this opportunity to consider purchasing.
