The Best Deals on Echo Show Devices Ahead of October’s Prime Day
October Prime Day kicks off next week, but early October Prime Day is offering plenty of deals, including great deals on headphones , Fire TVs, Blink cameras , Kindles , and more. Amazon’s Echo Show smart devices are also offering good discounts and bundle deals right now—here are some of the best I’ve found.
The Echo Show 8 costs $84.99, but bundles are better.
The third-generation Echo Show 8 launched in late 2023 to an “outstanding” review from PCMag, and is currently selling at its lowest price since its release, according to price trackers . The smart device has powerful stereo sound, a high-resolution camera with auto-framing that follows you, and faster performance than its predecessor. Alexa’s auto-control features make them ideal bedside or kitchen companions. You can get the Echo Show 8 for $84.99 (originally $149.99), but check out some packages first.
If you’re looking for a video security doorbell, you can purchase the Blink Video Doorbell with the Echo Show 8 bundle for $94.99 (originally $209.98). If you don’t want to spend $10 more, you might also consider the Echo Show 8 with TP-Link Tapo Smart Color Bulb for $84.99 (originally $174.98).
The Echo Show 5 costs $49.99, but consider this bundle instead.
The Echo Show 5 has a five-inch screen, compared to the eight-inch screen of the Echo Show 8. This third-generation device also came out in 2023 with an “excellent” review from PCMag . According to Price Checker Tools , this is the second lowest price ever at $49.99 (originally $89.99). The speaker, screen and camera are also inferior compared to the Echo Show 8, but this is also reflected in the price difference.
If you need a security camera and are interested in the Echo Show 5, the Echo Show 5 with Blink Outdoor 4 bundle for $59.99 (originally $189.99) is a great deal. Since these Echo Show devices and Blink cameras are Amazon products, you can sync them together and check out the live feed on your camera right from your Echo Show just by saying the magic words to Alexa.
Echo Hub sold to its lowest price
The Amazon Echo Hub is a great device for people who are deep into the world of smart devices and feel overwhelmed by too many different apps. This device helps consolidate all your devices into one eight-inch 1280 x 800 pixel screen that you can control and see better than having multiple apps open. It is designed for wall mounting and is compatible with locks, lights, thermostats, speakers, cameras, TVs and other smart devices that work with Zigbee, Matter, Sidewalk and Thread via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. You can read more about this in PCMag’s review . You can get it right now for $124.99 (originally $179.99), its lowest price yet, or get the TP-Link Tapo Smart Color Bulb kit for the same price.
