The 30+ best Prime Day Amazon Echo device deals

Echo speakers and displays are often heavily discounted during Prime Day, Amazon’s annual sales event, and are big sales drivers ahead of new product launches in the fall. Each year, Amazon offers some of the best discounts of the year on its devices during Prime Day, making it a great time to buy.

As someone who’s purchased several Echo devices during past Prime Day events, I always recommend people wait until the July sale to buy them. But so many options can be overwhelming, so ZDNET has gathered the best Prime Day deals on Echo devices you can find during the sale. We’ll continue to update this list as Prime Day continues.

The reliable Amazon Echo Dot is the perfect compact smart speaker to bring Alexa into your home. It’s small enough to sit on your bedside table or living room mantle yet powerful enough to listen from across the room and deliver vibrant, room-filling sound.

The smaller Echo Show 5 is a five-inch high-definition smart display propped up by a speaker on the back. It’s become the go-to Echo device for my kids’ shared room, with a screen that is small enough for their nightstand. This makes it easy for them to set timers to clean up while listening to music, run bedtime routines to adjust their smart lights, and ask Alexa for a bedtime story through the Hey Disney! integration.
