GET $20 OFF: As of Aug. 23, you can get an Echo Dot (5th gen) for $29.99 at Amazon, down from $49.99. That's $20 off the list price and just $7 more than its lowest price ever.


Our pick: Echo Dot (5th gen)
$29.99 at Amazon
$49.99 Save $20.00

Amazon’s new edition to its Echo lineup, the Amazon Echo Spot (on sale for $54.99), is here, but I’m still a tried-and-true fan of the Echo Dot (5th gen) — especially when it's on sale.

Right now, you can get an Echo Dot (5th gen) for $29.99 at Amazon. It’s a $20 price reduction and just $7 more than its all-time low price of $22.99, which we usually only see during the holiday season or on Prime Day.

The Echo Dot (5th gen) does everything you’d want a smart speaker to do — you can play music, set alarms, and create routines via the Alexa app. I also use mine to control my smart lights and set reminders. It doesn’t have a screen or fancy clock display, but it's tough to beat for the price and sound quality (plus Alexa’s capabilities).
