It makes a lot of sense that for Prime Big Deal Days we’d see a ton of discounts on Amazon’s own products including the Echo and Alexa-enabled smart home gear. If you’ve been wanting to grab an Echo, now’s your chance. Currently, Amazon is offering and that spans the gamut from Kindle tablets and Echo speakers to batteries, smart bulbs, and more. But one in particular we wanted to call out was the current offer for the Amazon Echo Dot 5th Gen from 2022. Normally $50, it’s down 54% to $23 today. That saves you about $27 and it’s really just an incredible opportunity if you don’t already have an Echo or want a newer one.

Why shop this Amazon Echo Dot 5th Gen Prime Big Deal Days offer?

Let’s start with our thoughts. Expert Erin Lawrence gave the Echo Dot 5th Gen with a clock four and a half stars in our Digital Trends review. She praised it for its compact footprint, vastly improved sound quality over previous generations, added Wi-Fi features and more. But all you really need to know is that she loved her time with the device, and you probably will too.

Moreover, if you’re considering the Echo Spot vs. the Echo Dot, it really depends on where you plan to place the smart device. Almost always, the Echo Dot is the better option unless you need that small display.  The Prime Big Deal Days offer that drops over 50% off the Echo Dot 5th Gen really puts things into perspective, too. That’s a price you just cannot beat.

If you’ve never used an Echo before, you can ask Alexa for the weather, have the assistant order you new products on Amazon when you’re all out, like more paper towels, get local alerts, and much more. There’s also a dedicated mute button so you can turn the mic off when you don’t want her activating accidentally — like during a party.

Normally $50, the Echo Dot 5th Gen deal will save you about $27 or 54% off, which means you can get it today for just $23. That’s a hell of a deal even with Amazon’s excellent prices for Prime Big Deal Days.
