Save on this great Dolby Atmos-equipped smart speaker, which features fantastic audio and Alexa voice control. You can also use the Echo Studio speakers as part of a home cinema setup. The regular retail price was already great for the sound and build quality of the Echo Studio – the £30 saving here just makes it sweeter, even though it's not the best price we've ever seen. 

With such an easy set-up and low price tag, the Amazon Echo Dot (2020) is a great way to try connected tech without the commitment of too much time, money and energy. 

This small, sphere-shaped device provides a compact home for Alexa to live inside yours. It also packs in enough sound performance to fill most rooms – although audiophiles be warned, this isn’t going to compete with your sound system. 

At this price, the smart speaker is an absolute steal, and could make a fantastic gift too. 

If audio quality is your main concern however, you may want to look to the Amazon Echo Studio. Boasting ambitious audio credentials that include support for 3D audio mixes and Dolby Atmos home cinema soundtracks, this flexible smart speaker can also control your smart home devices like other Alexa speakers – all at a reasonable price.
