In a flurry of announcements on May 17, Amazon also showcased its new low-cost Echo Buds, where it's sacrificed a bunch of features, such as Active Noise Cancelling and an in-ear design, for a competitive $50 price point to take on Apple's AirPods 2 and 3 wireless earphones.
Available to pre-order now with a release date of June 7, Amazon says that these Buds can last up to five hours on a single charge before they need to be put back into the case, and the silicon ear tips will allow them to sit in the ear a little better than the AirPods and their smooth, plastic surfaces.
