When it comes to the Echo smart speakers, Amazon has a slew of devices to choose from. With so many Echo devices currently available, there is a device for every occasion. Maybe you simply want to add Alexa to a room, or you are looking for an Echo device that will allow you to easily manage your other smart home products. Regardless of the reason, these are the best Echo deals currently available right now.

Echo Dot

Last year, Amazon released the 4th generation of the Echo dot, which looks more like a sphere than an actual dot. But if you prefer the previous design, don’t worry — Amazon has not discontinued the 3rd-gen Echo Dot, which still retains the familiar dot shape.

Currently, the 3rd-gen Echo Dot gets frequent price drops, and right now, you can get it for $25 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target.

During Black Friday and Cyber Monday, we saw the 4th-gen Echo Dot go down to its lowest price of $30. That deal is still available at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target. If you buy the fourth-gen Echo Dot at Amazon, you get six months of Amazon Music Unlimited at no extra cost.

Echo Dot Kids Edition

The 4th-gen Echo Dot Kids Edition is as spherical as its adult version but is designed to look like a tiger or panda. The device also comes with a year of Amazon’s Kid Plus service, which provides access to a slew of kid-friendly content, like audiobooks and games.

Right now, you can get this device for $40 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target. If you purchase it on Amazon, you can also get six months of Amazon Music Unlimited at no additional cost.

Amazon Echo

The 4th-gen Amazon Echo smart home hub has also gotten an updated look. Like the 4th-gen Echo Dot, the 2020 Amazon Echo also includes a sphere-shaped design, but it’s noticeably bigger than the Echo Dot.

If you are looking for just one Amazon Echo, it is down to its lowest price ever of $70 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target. If you buy the Echo from Amazon, you also get six months of Amazon Music Unlimited for free.

If you are looking for two Amazon Echo devices, Best Buy is currently selling an Amazon Echo two-pack for $140, which knocks $60 off its normal retail price.

Amazon’s latest Echo speaker takes a new approach to its design, opting for a spherical look rather than a cylinder. More notably, though, for the same price as the previous generation, it sounds much better.

Echo Show 5

If you are looking for an Echo device that functions more as a smart clock than an entertainment speaker, the Echo Show 5 is one of two smart displays to consider. The Echo Show 5 includes a 5.5-inch display, making it easy to fit just about anywhere inside your home. Not only does the device include a built-in camera, but there’s also a physical shutter on the device, allowing you to block the camera’s view while keeping the always-on microphone active.

The Echo Show 5 usually costs $90, but right now, you can buy the device at its best-ever price of $45 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target.

Echo Show 8

Amazon’s Echo Show 8 features an eight-inch display; it costs $40 more than the Echo Show 5. When stacked up against the Google Nest Hub, which is its closest competitor in terms of price and functionality, the Echo Show 8 is the better option for a few reasons: it has a slightly larger display, better speakers, and a camera, allowing you to use it as a video chatting device, this includes Zoom calls.

Normally, this device costs $130, but it has seen some good price reductions in the past. We have seen the device go down as low as $65. But if you are looking to buy the device now, you can get it for just $80 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target.

Echo Buds

In 2019, Amazon released its first pair of true wireless earbuds: the Echo Buds. The Echo Buds offer superb sound quality, a comfy fit, and Bose’s noise reduction features. And, of course, they also include Alexa.

Right now, you can get the Echo Buds, plus six months free of Amazon Music Unlimited, for just $80 at Amazon.

If you’re interested in an Alexa smart speaker with better audio quality and Dolby Atmos support, the Echo Studio is the Amazon product you may want to purchase.

There are no active deals right now for a new Echo Studio, but you can get it right now for its usual price of $200 at Amazon and Best Buy. There is, however, a deal on a bundle at Best Buy, which includes an Echo Studio and a Fire TV Stick 4K for $240.
