This $20 Alexa smart speaker is just as good as a $50 Echo Dot
Okay seriously, don’t buy an Amazon Echo Dot. We love the Echo Dot, don’t get us wrong, but there’s a comparable smart speaker out there that looks the same and gives you the same hands-free access to Alexa. The difference, however, is that it costs half as much. You’ll pay $50 for an Echo Dot on Amazon or elsewhere, but the Eufy Genie Smart Speaker with Hands-Free Amazon Alexa can be had for just $19.99. Definitely check it out before you buy a Dot.
