The Echo Dot is discounted today, but get this $20 Alexa speaker instead
Amazon’s newest Echo Dot is on sale right now at a $10 discount, which drops the price to $40. That’s definitely a good deal, but you still shouldn’t buy one. Why? Because the eufy Genie Smart Speaker with Amazon Alexa is pretty much the same thing and it only costs $19.99! It’s nice and compact just like the Echo Dot. It also gives you hands-free access to all your favorite Alexa skills. So why would you pay double for a Dot when the Genie is just as good?
