If you're looking for the best Amazon Prime Day deal, you could do a lot worse than check out this great saving on the Echo Dot – and the price has been reduced in both the UK and US.
Let's start stateside: the diminuitive Alexa speaker had dropped to just $22 from $49.99 for Prime members – if you're coming at this from the UK it's an almost identical saving, lopping a huge £27.99 off the RRP to bring it down to just £22.
And… if you want to make an even bigger saving, you can go for three of these little nuggets for just $59.99, with the discount added at the checkout.
Or you could add a smart plug for $4.99 in the US, which is a great entry to the smarthome when you can just command Alexa to turn something on or off for you.
Amazon obviously wants to see you grabbing discounts on its own devices so you start embedding yourself in its ecosystem, but the Amazon Echo (3rd edition) is a neat bit of kit in itself.
It's a smart speaker that works with Amazon Alexa to play music, answer questions, make calls, and more all with the command of your voice. The compact speaker plays your favorite tunes from services like Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, and more.
The 3rd generation (this is the newest model) Echo Dot can also control your smart home devices to adjust the temperature, turn on lights, and more using your voice.
Like we mentioned above, this is the lowest price we've seen for the newest Echo Dot and a perfect opportunity to build your smart home. This discount is exclusively for Prime Members and is only valid during the 48-hour event.
