What Are the Best Amazon Device Discounts?

From the newest Echo Dot release to excellent deals on the Kindle Paperwhite, here are some of the best deals for Amazon devices that every Prime member should know before they go away for good.

Best Echo Dot Deal

echo dot sale

The best Amazon smart speaker deal we’ve found is this discount on the Echo Dot (3rd Gen). The speaker features a compact, ergonomic circular shape and is one of the best-sounding Echo Dots available.

This deal saves you 38% to help you automize your daily routine. With Alexa you can set timers, check the weather, read the news, adjust thermostats, and connect with others hands-free.

Want to save 25% with a trade-in promotion? You might be able to get a discount when you preorder the new Echo Dot (3rd Gen) on its own right now. (You can also still get the Echo Dot (5th Gen) for a 20% discount at the time of this writing.)

Best Amazon Echo Show Deal

Echo Show 8
Echo Show 8

The Amazon Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen) deal stands out because it’s bigger than the Echo Show 5, but for 42% off and under $80 right now, you’re getting an incredible value. Its size makes it the perfect smart speaker with a screen to keep on your kitchen counter or desk. You can place or accept video calls on popular services like Zoom with just a couple of taps, and have full access to Amazon’s Alexa.

The biggest benefit to using an Echo with a screen is that you can see Alexa’s answers in addition to hearing them. Asking for a weekly forecast will show you the highs, lows, and weather conditions for each week. It’s easier to see this information at a glance rather than waiting for Alexa to speak.

Best Kindle Deal

All New Kindle Paperwhite
All New Kindle Paperwhite

Amazon’s All-New Kindle Paperwhite (on sale for 25% off) is the best e-reader for most people, and it comes with three months of Kindle Unlimited included during Amazon’s current sale.

The Paperwhite’s high-resolution e-ink screen makes digital type look like text, and won’t show a glare in the sun like the LCD screen on a phone or tablet. The e-reader has enough storage to hold hundreds of books, and a battery that lasts weeks if you read for a half-hour each day.

Amazon updated the Kindle Paperwhite recently, and its new design includes a longer battery and bigger screen, which makes the reading experience so much better. If you read a lot, and want to take your entire library with you everywhere, the Kindle Paperwhite is the right tool.

Amazon released its Echo Buds (2nd Gen) in 2021, and you can save 25% by trading in any other Amazon Echo device. Even better, they’re also discounted up to $40 off for right now. (That’s up to 58% if you take advantage of the trade-in program.)

The Echo Buds not only sound great but make it easy to access Alexa, Amazon’s smart assistant to operate them hands-free. You can switch tracks, request songs, adjust the volume, or even control smart-home accessories in your home directly from the headphones.

This lack of distraction can help you focus on your workout instead of futzing around with your phone.

The Fire TV Stick 4K is one of Amazon’s newest premium media streamers, and it’s just $29.99 right now, which is 40% off the usual price.

Despite its size, the Fire TV Stick 4K can stream Ultra HD video, and supports Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision, the latest high-end audio and video technologies. Its app library is huge, allowing you to stream your favorite songs, TV shows, and movies on the streaming services you want to use.

The device also comes bundled with the Alexa Remote, which lets you use Amazon’s smart assistant to find the content you want to watch without pushing a bunch of buttons. At this price, no other media streamer comes close to delivering the same level of performance or value.

Fire HD 8 Tablet

Amazon’s Fire HD 8 has always been the best tablet you can get under $100, but it’s now available for just $59.99, a 40% discount (or save 20% with the trade-in program).

The backpack-friendly tablet is an incredibly convenient device for watching movies, listening to music, or reading Kindle books. It comes with 32GB of storage, but you can add more by popping in a MicroSD Card, which is a feature most tablets don’t have anymore.

Amazon says the Fire HD 8 can last up to 12 hours per charge, and supports fast charging, so you don’t need to leave it plugged in for very long when the battery is drained. You should have no problem using this tablet throughout an entire cross-continental trip.

If you’ve been considering getting a tablet for casual use at home, or want to take a bigger screen with you on trips without lugging a laptop, don’t miss this deal.
