While words like "incredible", "outstanding", and "phenomenal" tend to lose their meaning after being constantly used to describe deals and discounts on some of the most popular consumer products out there, we truly and simply cannot believe how cheap Amazon's first-gen Echo Buds can be purchased today only.Commercially released back in 2019 at a recommended price of $129 and replaced by a vastly improved sequel earlier this year that's somehow even more affordable than that, the standard AirPods-rivaling true wireless earbuds are on sale at Woot right now for a measly $39.99 in a single black hue.But believe it or not, the aforementioned $39.99 price is good for brand-new, unused, unopened, and undamaged units backed by a full 1-year manufacturer warranty, making the Echo Buds 1 cheaper and arguably more attractive than the vast majority of the best budget wireless earbuds around.In addition to Bose-powered Active Noise Reduction technology, Amazon's feature-packed rookie "hearables" effort also comes with hands-free Alexa assistance (naturally), as well as "immersive" sound (allegedly), and an objectively decent battery life starting at five hours of uninterrupted tunes and going all the way up to 20 hours when also taking the bundled charging case into account.
Designed to look equally sleek at the gym and the office, the OG Echo Buds can handle a little bit of sweat and the occasional splash thanks to their IPX4 water resistance rating while packing three microphones (per bud) to deliver flawless voice call clarity (at least by sub-$50 standards).
