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.

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.
Three types of ear tips are available, one for the ear canal and the other for the outer ear.The left is when the wing tip is used, and the right is when not in use.
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.
Requires a smartphone or tablet that can use the Alexa app
As the author, I was concerned about the oppressive feeling peculiar to the canal type. However, if you are accustomed to earphones, this may not be a problem.
As it is large as it is, there is a foreign body sensation when pushing it into your ear.
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.
It is convenient to be able to operate play / stop, song advance, etc. by tapping the earphone
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 about the delay and some scenes where I didn’t. You may be worried about it in the game.
Also, I’m worried about the reaction when tapping. For example, it took about 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 about white noise. It may not be suitable for the purpose of shutting out the surrounding sounds.
There are a lot of things to worry about, 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.
