Amazon’s brand-new Echo Dot Max has already had its price cut
View Deal
The Echo Dot Max has only just arrived on the scene, acting as the flagship version of Amazon’s Dot line-up.
Given its relative new-ness, the discount available on this model is the biggest, but £10 / $10 is better than nothing for a product that’s only a few weeks old.
Compared to the older model, it has improved, deeper bass; though we wouldn’t say that the new Echo Dot Max sounds as good as the old standard Echo.
For smart users, it has a Zigibee/Thread smart home built in, as well as Matter support, which offers direct control of smart devices in your home. There’s also hands-free Alexa to control the speaker and devices with just your voice.
Echo Spot drops back to rock-bottom pricing

The Echo Spot is a smart clock, one for putting next to the bed to help wake you up and get on witht he day.
This discount has reduced it by 44%. In the UK it’s available for £44.99, while in the US it’s a 38% drop to $49.99.
It’s not as smart as other models in the Echo range but it does offer Alexa, so you can ask the speaker questions and it’ll respond in kind.
Save big on the Echo Pop for Black Friday
Echo Pop is available for an unbeatable £21.99, down from £44.99, making it the perfect time to bring smart audio and Alexa into your home at a fraction of the price
View Deal
The Echo Pop is Amazon’s entry-level speaker in its Echo range, a cool looking speaker that comes in a wide range of colours to suit the room it’s in.
Given it’s entry-level position, it’s the cheapest of all the Echo speakers and this deal sees the price plummet more. It’s available for £21.99 / $21.99.
It comes with Matter support for those who have compatible devices. Alexa is also on hand to answer any requests, while it can play audio, but for a speaker of its size it’s not going to compete with the bigger Echo speakers.
Nevertheless, if you’re looking for a cheap and cheery Echo speaker to keep an eye on your smart home devices, the Echo Pop is the cheapest of the lot.
Echo Dot smart speakers now 45% off in Amazon’s early Black Friday sale
Amazon has slashed the Echo Dot from £54.99 to £29.99
View Deal
The Echo Dot has had its RRP slashed, down by almost half to £29.99 / $31.99.
The Echo Dot is the Goldilocks of the Amazon Echo range, not too big and not too expensive to have appeal to most people. We awarded 4.5 stars in our review, though it is one of the oldest Echo speakers on this list having first launched back in 2022.
It’s got improved audio over its predecessors, and has Matter support for controlling smart devices in the home.
It’s still one of favourite Echo speakers, and at this price, it’s well worth nabbing one if you’re in need of a smart speaker.

It has Matter, Thread and Zigbee support for those who want to keep control over their smart home devices, and it has the Adaptive Content feature whereby it offers suggestions that change based on how close you are to the display.
If that’s the level of convenience you’d feel is welcome in your home, the Echo Show 3rd Gen is on sale; down to £94.99 in the UK.
