There are built-in sensors that automatically pause playback when you take the Echo Buds off.
The Echo Buds are IPX4-certified against splashes, sweat, or light rain.
However, ironically, the Echo Buds can be charged only via micro-USB and not USB bang out-C.
The Echo Buds will cost $129.99 and will be available for purchase in the U.S. from October 30.
Pre-orders for the headphones have already begun this Wednesday.
