I absolutely don't think these are a good idea. Theyw ant way too much permission just to be earbuds. They want access to everything you do on your phone not just waht you do with the Alexa app. This is partly how the iPhone is designed, when it gives permission it gives it across the board. But I don't want it recording everything I do on my phone, not that I do anything, but still. So I use my regular Airpods to listen to audible books on my phone using the Audible app and that works great.
