As we get closer to the big sales from Walmart, Target, and Best Buy that October Prime Day brings, early deals that are just as good but with less fanfare start popping up. Right now, you can find many early deals on Amazon and Amazon-owned brands, many of which are matching Prime Day prices (and you don't need to be a Prime Member to take advantage of them). The Active Noise Canceling (ANC) Amazon Echo Buds are one of the best earbud deals right now, currently $34.99 (originally $119.99) after a 71% discount, the lowest price it has ever been according to price-checking tools. The newer and even more budget-friendly Amazon Echo Buds are also at their lowest price of $24.99 (originally $49.99).
The best and most distinguishing feature of these ANC earbuds is the hands-free voice-assistant control. With Alexa, Siri, or Google Assistant on your phone, you'll be able to stream music, podcasts, or audiobooks hands-free by just asking your virtual assistant. You can also make calls, set reminders, skip songs, and do basically everything else you can do with a voice assistant.
These Echo Buds also have a multipoint pairing feature that can connect to two devices at the same time and seamlessly transition to whichever is playing media. You'll get up to five hours of battery and an additional 15 hours from the case (whether it's wireless or not). They're also rated IPX4 for water resistance.

These earphones were eclipsed by the third-generation Echo Buds in 2023, which are a more budget-friendly version without ANC. Both are good headphones, but for just $10 more, it's worth getting the version with ANC, unless you're just trying to spend the least amount possible.
