Smart speakers just keep getting better and better. Get an Echo Show 8 (3rd Gen) for $109.99, 27% off, before Amazon Prime Day, and bring spatial audio to your home, while also using it as a smart home hub.
This newest generation offers faster responses, thanks to Amazon’s upgraded processor, and it now supports adaptive content. The display changes based on your proximity – glanceable info when you’re far, and interactive elements when you’re close.
Working with the spatial audio is the 8” HD touchscreen and 13 MP camera. The two together allow you to participate in video calling with crisp sound, hands-free, or with the Top Connections widget. Your face will always be centered with the auto-framing camera.
Concerned about privacy? The Echo Show 8 includes a built-in camera shutter and microphone/camera off button, giving you full control over when it’s watching or listening.
The touchscreen and audio will come to life when watching Prime Video, Netflix, Fire TV channels, and more. Use the same audio to stream Amazon Music, Apple Music, and Spotify. Use the Echo as a digital photo frame as well, with Amazon Photos. Check your calendar and reminders on the home screen or while you are away.
The Echo Show 8 also works as a smart home hub. Control smart lights, doorbells, thermostats, etc., that are compatible with Matter, Thread, and Zigbee. Use your voice and Alexa to control the devices, or use the touchscreen on the speaker. You can also control devices that connect through Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. With Alexa built in, you can use voice commands to set timers, get news updates, drop in on other Echo devices, or even control your Ring doorbell – all without lifting a finger.
Take 27% off the price of this Echo in Charcoal or Glacier White and pay just $109.99. As another bonus, it’s made from 29% recycled materials, and 99% of the packaging is made of wood fiber-based materials from managed forests and recycled sources.
