Why we love this deal

Most of us have a few essentials when it comes to technology—a phone and smartwatch being the top two—but a third for most of us is earbuds. Whether you are working, commuting, exercising, or scrolling TikTok in bed next to a sleeping partner, earbuds are hard to live without. From listening to your favorite tunes to calls with loved ones, this tiny tech is a daily must-have.

While there are some pretty pricey models out there, you don't have to drop a bag on something that might get lost in your bag. Right now, Amazon is offering these $26 Ktgee Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds for only $17. That’s right, this pair is now 35% off the original price and a steal at under $20.

Why do shoppers love it?

This deal is specific to the white colorway, but there are also amazing deals for three of the other color options as well. These earbuds have 40 hours of playback time, and a sleek LED case that displays the charge left in the battery. They also charge up super fast with 90 minutes of playtime for only 15 minutes of charging, and connect effortlessly via Bluetooth, so you can quickly get back to listening to your favorite podcasts, calling your friends, and more.

These earbuds are both waterproof and dustproof—great for those that like to run in the rain—and are designed to sit securely in the ear without causing pressure or discomfort.

"I find them to be more secure during workouts than my AirPods," said one customer. "Which tend to slip out during high-intensity activities. If comfort and fit during exercise are priorities, Ktgee is the better choice."
