Amazon’s superb Echo Studio speaker is just $155 for Cyber Monday

Thanksgiving has begun to feel like a distant memory as Cyber Monday deals have fully kicked off. Let’s get you started on the right path toward the best bargains with this deal from Best Buy, which is offering an Amazon Echo Studio for just $155. It normally sells for $200, but Best Buy has cut the price by $45 for the online shopping holiday. This is a rate typically reserved for holidays, so it could very well be your last chance to grab a decently priced Amazon Echo Studio this year.

Why you should buy the Amazon Echo Studio

Why buy? Long-standing greatness. In our initial Amazon Echo Studio review, we noted that it was the best Echo speaker yet and that the Amazon Echo Studio’s 360-degree Dolby Atmos audio gave our reviewer chills. That review was two years ago. Where do more recent assessments place the Amazon Echo Studio? Still quite favorably. Our recent writeup on the best Amazon Alexa smart speakers ranks the Amazon Echo Studio as the best Alexa speaker for audiophiles due to its “class-leading bass” and effective soundstage.

At a more up-close glance, the first thing that stands out about the Amazon Echo Studio is the open slot around the bottom third of the device. This is to let out bass, produced by the 5.25-inch woofer, the lowest of the five directional speakers within its cylindrical casing. The device will (automatically) analyze your room’s acoustics to get the balance right. And when you’re done listening, you’ve still got full smart control of Alexa.

If you’ve got the right person in mind (it could be you) that needs speakers and is pretty deep into the Alexa smart home ecosystem, this is the time to buy a Amazon Echo Studio. As part of Best Buy’s sale, you can get one right now for just $155, which is $45 off of the usual $200 price. It’s also worth noting that Best Buy has enacted its Extended Holiday Return Period, so you can buy today and not have to make a final decision about keeping it until January 14. With low risk like this, now is the time to buy.

Amazon Fire 7 -- $40, was $60

If you want what's arguably the cheapest tablet that's still worth your money, you want a Fire tablet. The Amazon Fire 7 is the cheapest of Amazon's cheap tablets. It's not going to set the world on fire in terms of performance or display quality, but it gives you easy access to tons of apps, you can watch videos and browse the web on it, and -- of course -- it's fine for reading books and magazines. It's not a bad little device to consider getting if you have a Prime account, as it'll let you take full advantage of your membership benefits. If you can up your budget just a bit, though, then the Fire HD 8 might be a better buy.

This Echelon exercise bike is $500 off, and it’s selling fast

If you're still looking for the best Cyber Monday deals on smart bikes for your home, Walmart dropped the price of an Echelon exercise bike by $502. Instead of the regular $799 cost, you pay only $297 for an Echelon Connect Sport-S smart bike complete with a 30-day free trial membership. This super low price is such an amazing bargain that we don't imagine the inventory will last long, so don't hesitate if you're shopping for one of the best fitness deals from a major exercise equipment brand.

Why you should buy the Echelon Connect Sport-S exercise bike
If you are looking for a smart exercise bike you likely know about Peloton bikes. Peloton bikes are popular and high quality, but they're also costly. Echelon is one of the best Peloton alternatives for smart exercise equipment to use in homes. This deal for the Echelon Connect Sport-S helps you save a lot of money on a smart bike with 32 resistance levels. You can resistance settings manually, which means instructors can't automatically adjust it during workouts. A built-in 10-inch diagonal display means you don't have to use your smartphone or tablet to stream content.
