Amazon Echo smart speaker deals are getting hot!

Amazon Echo smart speaker deals are getting hot!

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority
The Amazon Echo and Echo Dot offers come from Amazon, and they are both 'limited time deals.' The Echo Pop discount is available from Woot!, which is also an Amazon-owned deals website. Also, this Woot! sale is available for six days or 'until sold out.'
Discounts and availability vary depending on the specific colors. We will discuss each section below in more detail.
Amazon Echo
This Amazon Echo deal is only available for the Twilight Blue and Glacier White color versions. I happen to be a fan of the blue model, which I actually own. Regardless, the point is that the Charcoal iteration is the only one that costs the full $99.99 price point.
If you choose to go with this one, you are in for a treat. We believe it to be Amazon's best smart speaker. There is technically a 'better one,' but the Echo Studio is too expensive for the benefits it offers.
The Amazon Echo 4th Gen is the perfect balance between quality and price, and it's the one I personally chose for my home. The design is very similar to the Echo Dot, which you'll learn more about in the next section. It's that spherical shape that made Amazon Echo speakers so popular. This one is bigger at 5.7 x 5.7 x 5.2in, though. It's not really huge, though, so it won't stick out like a sore thumb anywhere, and it should be pretty easy to find a good home for it in a larger space, like a living room.

The difference in size will be worth it once you listen to it, though. It gets more space to fit a 3.0-inch neodymium woofer and two 0.8-inch tweeters. All the smaller speakers have a single driver. This makes the sound much fuller and more dynamic. The bass is also much nicer.
Of course, you're not getting this speaker just for a good look and audio quality. This is a smart speaker, and its highlight is that it is powered by Amazon Alexa. This means you can use voice commands to request music, random information, solve math problems, set reminders, schedule alarms, call people, control smart home devices, and much more. This one also gets all the cool extra features, such as a Zigbee hub, a temperature sensor, motion detection, and eero mesh Wi-Fi functionality.
I like using motion detection to automate lights, so they turn on whenever I walk into a room. If you have a smart thermostat, you can automate the AC. The Zigbee hub can control all your smart home devices without crowding the Wi-Fi network.

Limited Time Deal!
If the full-sized Amazon Echo is a bit much for your needs, the Amazon Echo Dot is a nice alternative. It is $12 off, and you can pick whichever color you prefer. These include Charcoal, Deep Sea Blue, and Glacier White.
The Amazon Echo Dot 5th Gen keeps the same spherical design, but it is smaller at 3.9 x 3.9 x 3.5in. This makes it smaller, significantly more affordable, and still plenty featureful. It's a nice option for smaller rooms, such as a kitchen, a bedroom, a dorm, or a restroom.

The 1.73-inch speaker sounds good, but don't expect it to host any dance parties. That said, we found that the audio quality is really nice for the size.
The Echo Dot still gets the light ring at the bottom, which is really nice for notifications and knowing when it is listening to you. It is obviously still Alexa-powered, so you get all the cool digital assistant features. The good news is that it still keeps most of the extra features. It has a temperature sensor, motion detection, and eero mesh Wi-Fi capabilities. It just skips the Zigbee hub. Arguably, though, that isn't a feature many may care much about.
Amazon Echo Pop

A cheap and tiny Alexa smart speaker.
A great entry or extension to the Alexa smart home ecosystem. The Echo Pop has a sleek design with a front-firing speaker that sits nicely in an office or on a bedside table.

Damaged Packaging!
This deal is available from Woot!, and it is available for all colors except the Charcoal one. That said, it is this cheap because the packaging is damaged. I honestly think the discount is worth getting a beat-up box, as we usually just throw those out. The only downside is that you get a 90-day warranty instead of Amazon's full-year manufacturer warranty. That said, you can currently get the Amazon Echo Pop for $27.99 directly from Amazon, and that gets you all the perks of buying new.
If you want a more basic smart speaker experience, the Amazon Echo Pop is the most affordable from the popular retailer. It's also small, adorable, and very functional.
The Amazon Echo Pop measures only 3.9 x 3.3 x 3.6in. It has a 1.95-inch speaker and sounds pretty decent, but it is mainly made for less demanding audio purposes. It could be an excellent bedside smart speaker or work amazingly at an office desk.
Amazon
That said, this one doesn't get any extras, so there's no temperature sensor, motion detection, or Zigbee hub. Like the others, though, it does get eero mesh Wi-Fi support.
Otherwise, it is just a minimized version of the other speakers. It supports Alexa, so you can take advantage of everything the digital assistant has to offer.
These are some of the best Amazon Echo smart speaker deals we've seen in a while, so jump on them while you can! If you care more about sound quality and don't need Alexa functionality, here is a list of the best Bluetooth speakers.

Amazon Launches At-Home Diagnostic Services in India

The diagnostic platform offers more than 1,000 tests and operates with a network of seven laboratories. Sample collection is available at home within 60 minutes, and reports for routine tests are delivered digitally in as little as six hours. You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. Amazon India has introduced Amazon Diagnostics, its latest healthcare service offering, in collaboration with accredited testing provider Orange Health Labs. The service, now live in six major cities such as Bengaluru, Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida, Mumbai, and Hyderabad, marks Amazon's continued expansion into India's healthtech sector. The diagnostic platform offers more than 1,000 tests and operates with a network of seven laboratories. Sample collection is available at home within 60 minutes, and reports for routine tests are delivered digitally in as little as six hours, as reported by Financial Express. The initiative is a key component in Amazon's broader effort to create a comprehensive digital healthcare ecosystem in India, integrating diagnostics with its existing pharmacy and teleconsultation services. Jayaramakrishnan Balasubramanian, category leader for Amazon Medical, described the diagnostics launch as the "third aspect" of Amazon's health strategy in India. "We launched the Pharmacy business about two and a half years ago, and it has grown very quickly. It's one of the fastest-growing segments for Amazon in India," he said. "Recently, we launched Amazon Clinic, which provides access to virtual doctor consultations, and now we are introducing the third aspect, Amazon Diagnostics, which completes our healthcare offering." Balasubramanian emphasized that the focus will be on user experience rather than price wars. "We will maintain price parity and focus on customer experience rather than compete purely on price," he said. Customers will be able to consult a doctor, book tests, and order medications all through the Amazon app. "We are launching this service first in India, as a unique Amazon initiative for this region," he added. Amazon Clinic, which launched six months ago, has already doubled its user base, especially in categories like pediatric and veterinary consultations. In India, the service is entirely online and covers 100 different conditions with over 10 medical specialities. The platform has reportedly been used for private consultations on sexual and mental health, areas where discretion is often a barrier to access. According to the company, the Amazon Pharmacy arm, which delivers prescription medications and healthcare essentials, is now accessible across all serviceable PIN codes in the country. With around 40 to 50 doctors onboarded for Amazon Clinic, the company indicated that it plans to expand the team in line with user demand.

Watch this Atlas rocket zip to the launchpad for Amazon's Kuiper launch

United Launch Alliance (ULA) has started the countdown clock for the deployment of Amazon's second batch of Project Kuiper internet satellites. The rocket operator released a time-lapse video on Sunday showing the Atlas V rocket moving from the Vehicle Assembly Building to the launchpad at Cape Canaveral in Florida. ULA chief Tory Bruno noted that while the rocket appears to hurtle to its destination, the vehicle carrying it is actually moving at a mere 3 mph. Mighty Atlas out for a stroll and back on the pad. Ps this is a time-lapse. IRL, the 2.5M pound Mobile Launch Platform travels at a blistering 3 mph or so. — Tory Bruno (@ 2025-06-21T18:39:04.920Z The mission was supposed to get away last week but technical issues and weather concerns caused the launch date to shift to Monday. Recommended Videos When the Atlas V heads skyward at 6:54 a.m. ET on Monday morning, it'll deploy 27 Project Kuiper satellites to a low-Earth orbit, joining the 27 satellites launched by the same rocket in April. Similar to SpaceX's Starlink service, Amazon's Project Kuiper is designed to bring fast, reliable internet to customers and communities around the world, with a particular focus on unserved and underserved communities. But having started its satellite deployment in 2019, and now with a constellation of more than 7,000 serving more than 5 million customers globally, Starlink is currently some distance ahead of Project Kuiper. Amazon is aiming for a constellation of more than 3,200 satellites, which it aims to have in place by the end of this decade. Before then, possibly before the end of this year, Amazon hopes to be able to start offering a high-speed, low-latency internet service with just 1,000 satellites in low-Earth orbit. Expanding the constellation to the planned 3,200 satellites will enhance network performance and reliability for customers. The e-commerce giant and cloud services powerhouse is investing more than $10 billion in Project Kuiper, which is expected to significantly expand global internet access. If you're interested in watching the launch as it happens, here's everything you need to know.
