Amazon has rolled out its best Black Friday deal yet just for its popular Echo Dot speaker. Right now you can get an all new Echo Dot for just $22.99. Regularly $49.99, the deal gets you the smart speaker for a whopping 54% discount.
AMAZON DEAL
Amazon Echo Dot
The Echo Dot is Amazon’s best-selling smart speaker and it packs a ton of features in its snow globe-sized shape. The biggest feature: Echo Dot supports Amazon’s Alexa, which allows you to control the Dot with your voice. You can ask Alexa to play music from various music streaming services, control smart-home accessories, and answer questions like “how’s the weather outside?”
For a portable device, the sound quality is pretty impressive — the Echo Dot can get loud… fast! We like that it can also be used as an assistant, letting us set timers, get the latest news, control temperature in the house and more. Its small size also lets you add an Alexa device to almost any space, from a bedside table to the kitchen counter to your desk.
This is Amazon’s fifth-generation Echo Dot, and the company says the smart speaker delivers an improved audio experience compared to previous models, with “clearer vocals, deeper bass and vibrant sound in any room.” In our testing, one of these Alexa speakers is enough to soundtrack an entire living room with music. We also like keeping one in our bathroom to listen to the news and a pump-up playlist while getting ready for the day, and one on our bedside table to listen to an audiobook or meditation playlist to help us fall asleep.
CHEAPEST DEAL
Amazon Echo Pop
The Echo Dot isn’t the cheapest — or even the smallest — Echo speaker though: those titles would belong to the all-new Amazon Echo Pop, which is currently on sale for just $17.99. This is Amazon’s newest smart speaker, and it delivers the same Alexa capabilities and room-filling sound in a smaller, more compact shape.
Choose from four colors online as part of this Black Friday deal. Amazon says more than 10,000 people have purchased the Echo Pop in the last month, with users giving it a 4.7-star rating from more than 69,000 reviews.
