Amazon Echo Buds (2nd generation): this is what the in-ears can do
The Echo Buds’ biggest strength is theirs Suitability for daily use. A good fit in the ear is virtually guaranteed thanks to four different silicone attachments and additional ear hooks in two sizes. The latter are good for improving grip in the ear during sports. Thanks to the IPX4 certification, the earbuds are also splash-proof.
The Integration into the Amazon ecosystem is another strength of the Echo Buds. The headphones can be adjusted to your own wishes via the Alexa app. The range of setting options is enormous. Voice control via Alexa works perfectly. You can use your voice to search for music or control other Amazon devices like Fire TVs. The buttons also measure various parameters during exercise, such as the number of steps.
Great travel companion thanks to good ANC
Also the Noise reduction can convince for this price range. Low-frequency sounds in particular, such as those in an airplane or train, are well shielded, making the earplugs the ideal travel companion. However, the in-ears have problems with varying and high frequencies. The transparency mode works very well and can be adjusted to five levels.
That leaves sound and battery: the former is balanced and consistently solid, but can’t keep up with the expensive competition. With ANC enabled, the battery will last about five hours. They are without noise cancellation about 20 hours. The charging case can fully charge the earbuds twice.
All in all, the Echo Buds (2nd generation) are powerful noise-cancelling headphones with a excellent price / quality ratio and thanks to Alexa high suitability for everyday use. However, audiophile users should opt for more expensive models.
Bose QuietComfort II: the alternative to the Echo Buds
If you don’t want to miss out on excellent noise cancellation and high-quality sound, you can go to the Bose QuietComfort II to grasp. On Prime Day, the premium headphones are available on Amazon for the lowest price of only 189.95 euros.
Noisy Hifi.de offer the QuietComfort II with the best ANC on the market and are only surpassed by Sony’s more expensive flagships. Even some over-ear headphones have to admit defeat here. The Bose in-ears sound considerably better than the Echo Buds, but don’t quite come close to the more expensive competition.
