The Amazon Echo Spot is one of four Alexa smart speakers you can get right now. It’s between the older 5th-generation Echo Dot and the new Echo Dot Max. It’s currently $44.99 (originally $79.99) after a 44% discount, the lowest price it has reached according to price tracking tools.
The Echo Spot is a mix between a screenless Echo smart speaker and the Echo Show ; it has a screen but lacks a full smart display. According to PCMag’s review , it’s more of a smart speaker with a very basic screen that the time, temperature, weather, day of the week, the date, and the album art when it’s playing music. It’s compact but delivers impressive sound for its size, making it a great smart speaker to keep on a nightstand to use as an alarm clock.
What do you think so far?
It’s not as powerful a speaker as the 5th-generation Echo Dot, but it’s newer, and it has the touchscreen display, which you can use to manage basic settings like audio playback and trigger your compatible smart home devices.
