Are you stumped about what to gift this Christmas? Amazon has launched a hard-to-miss deal on its pair of wireless earbuds by cutting a huge £85 off the price tag. Perfect for that special someone who asked for a tech gadget under the tree.

Now at just £44.99, the pair have been reduced from an original £119, an offer which will surely catch the eyes of many Samsung Galaxy Bud and Apple Airpod fans, especially as its Bluetooth specs are on par for a lot cheaper. Packed with eliminating noise reduction, long battery life, and hands-free features you can't go wrong with these underrated buds for a first-time user.

At £44.99 Amaon's deal on the 2nd generation Echo Buds works out hundreds cheaper than rivals over at Apple and Samsung. The Echo Buds also work seamlessly on both Android and iOS handsets so you wouldn't need to worry about the brand of phone your giftee has.

Its voice-activated Alexa function will rival that of the Siri in Airpods and you'll get a rechargeable case to carry around with like most wireless earbud brands. The one feature Apple seems to outperform other brands on, including Amazon, is its seamless usability so you can adjust features without touching panels on the side of the bud.

It's not certain how long the deal will be available for, so we'd recommend shoppers head to the checkout fast if they're keen on saving the £85 on the pair this December. For fans with a higher budget in mind we've also spotted some hard-to-miss price drops over at rival Samsung, where its Galaxy Buds FE can be bought for a fraction of the price.

The deal can be found online at Currys, where the pair are being sold for £25 less than usual at £74 a pair not bad considering these would usually set tech fans back just under £100.

Hand-in-hand with the Echo Buds, gadgets including the tiny Echo Pop speaker, the classic Echo Dot, plug-in Fire Stick, and the security surveiling Ring Doorbell are all reduced ahead of the Christmas shopping season as well as the next highly anticipated Boxing Day sales.
