A Bunch of Amazon Smart Speakers Are on Sale Right Now

When it comes to smart speakers, Amazon Echo and Google Home are the big dogs. Make sure you understand the differences between the two voice assistants before choosing one—I personally like the Google Home app better than the Amazon equivalent, but the Google smart speakers themselves don't seem as good as the Echo's.

If you do decide an Echo is the way to go, Amazon is having a sale on Echo devices right now, many of which also include a Sengled smart light.

The Echo Dot, 5th Generation

The fifth-generation Echo Dot launched in 2022, and it’s better priced than the older fourth generation model. The Echo Dot has some unique features, such as an internal sensor that can detect the ambient room temperature, plus it can double as an Eero mesh wifi extender. The Echo Dot usually retails for $49.99 but you can snag one right now, bundled with a Sengled smart light, for $34.99. Check out PCMag’s review to help you make the final decision.

The Echo Pop

If you are looking for a more budget-friendly option, then consider the Echo Pop. You can think of it as an Echo Dot 5th Generation slashed in half, with a flat face instead of that orb-like appearance. Don't expect the same volume levels as the Echo Dot, although it does have a balanced sound and doubles as an Eero wifi node. You can get it for 58% off right now, although I've seen it for $17.99 on Prime Day. Read the full review from PCMag here.

Amazon Echo Show 8

The Echo Show 8 is the second generation of the Echo Show line. Its 8-inch screen and front-facing camera set it apart from the Dot, but other than that, it has the same basic functionality. Like the other Echo devices, I've seen it go for cheaper during Prime Day. You can read more about its features here.
