| We already knew it was coming – thanks to an accidental tweet Amazon posted earlier this week – but now it’s official: Amazon’s connected speaker Echo Dot is back in stock and at a lower price point of $49.99. The Alexa-powered device offers many of the same features that you’ll find in its larger counterpart, the Amazon Echo, including access to Amazon’s voice-based assistant who you can ask to do things like play music, read the news, check the weather, turn on your lights, set timers, use apps, and more.
First unveiled in March of this year, the Echo Dot along with Echo Tap, were Amazon’s first attempt at expanding its Echo family of connected speakers by making them available at lower price points.
The Dot in particular came about because many Amazon customers were asking for a way to connect their own speakers to Echo – by doing so, you can enable voice control of your own home entertainment system, or you can use it on its own to talk to Alexa.
The device connects via either Bluetooth or a 3.5 mm stereo cable to your entertainment system, then allows you to use your voice to play music from Amazon Music, Prime Music, Pandora, Spotify, iHeartRadio, TuneIn and others. |
