Want a smart speaker in every room? Amazon’s Echo Dot is on a deep Black Friday discount—just $22.99, an all-time low and roughly 54% off its usual $49.99 price—making it an easy pick for expanding a smart home or stocking up on extras.
For its size and price the Echo Dot offers a lot. Alexa handles voice commands for controlling smart-home gear, checking the weather, managing shopping lists and reminders, and much more. The Dot doubles as a compact wireless speaker, streaming from Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and other services; its sound is impressive given the cost.
The device also includes motion detection and a temperature sensor, which you can use to trigger Alexa routines—useful for automating lights when someone enters a room or adjusting behavior based on temperature changes. If you use Amazon’s Eero mesh routers, each Echo Dot can help extend your network’s reach by up to about 1,000 square feet.
At $22.99, the Echo Dot is a strong Black Friday value whether you’re starting a smart-home setup or adding coverage and functionality throughout your house. It’s an affordable way to add Alexa-driven convenience and modest audio to multiple rooms.
Grab the Echo Dot for $22.99 while the deal lasts.
