If you’ve been thinking about getting into the smart speaker game, but you’re hesitant to spend a whole lot of money to see if you like it, consider trying out the Amazon Echo Dot, which is just $39.99 today, a $10 discount and the best price we’ve seen to date.
"Alexa..."
What’s super interesting about this deal is that it’s not limited to just Prime members. That’s right. Even if you’re not an Amazon Prime subscriber, you can still get these cool little smart speakers for just $39.99.
Why would you buy an Echo Dot instead of an Echo or something like the Google Home? Well, for one, the Echo Dot is way cheaper. The Echo speaker is going to run you $180, and the Google Home is going to run you $130. Another reason to get to Echo Dot is if you already have a Bluetooth speaker in your home. If you do, then you can pair the Echo Dot with it and it essentially becomes a full blown smart speaker. Pretty cool, right?
On top of that all that, we think the Echo is just the best smart speaker you can buy today. It offers tons of skills and it’s by far the most compatible with third-party hardware like light bulbs and switches.
So, if you’re interested in trying out of these out, or if you’re just looking to add an additional Echo Dot to your home, today is the day to pull the trigger.
