2022 Amazon Prime Day Deals on Echo Devices

The much-anticipated Prime Day 2022 sale event is finally here (July 12-13). Just like in previous years, Alexa is once again one of the stars of the Prime Day show, which makes it a good time to expand Alexa’s presence in your smart home. To help you find the best deals, we’ve compiled Prime Day 2022 information concerning Amazon Echo and other Echo devices here. Read on to learn more.

Prime Day 2022 Echo Deals

Amazon has been dropping deals on Echo devices since the first week of July, but Amazon reserved the best deals for yesterday and today. These are the deals available right now, but watch out, some of them come and go, so if you see one that you like, don’t wait too long before buying.

We’ve been monitoring Amazon since the day it announced the dates of Prime Day 2022. Deals started at $10 off towards the last days of June, and they grew steadily as Prime Day approached. The deals above are the best we’ve seen this year, and they’re already better than previous Prime Day deals. For reference, these were the most noteworthy deals we saw last Prime Day.

• Amazon Echo (4th generation): $40 off
• Echo Show 8 (1st generation): $40 off
• Echo Show 10 (3rd generation): $60 off
• Echo Show 8 (2nd generation) with Blink Mini: $60 off
• Echo Show 8 (2nd generation): $35 off

We’re likely not going to see bigger discounts than the ones available now, and given Amazon’s history of running out of stock of its best-selling Echo devices during Prime Day, it would be smart to take advantage while you still can. That being said, watch out for surprises as well. Amazon is no stranger to announcing unexpected deals, like huge discounts on newly released products or buy-one-get-one deals on popular bundles. In 2020, for example, Amazon discounted its newest Echo Dot at the time before it was even released.2

We’ll keep this page updated if surprise deals pop up, so check back through the Prime Day event to stay updated.

Bundles: Another Way To Save

Prime Day brings another way to save for Amazon Echo and Alexa users: bundles. As you know, Alexa works with thousands of smart home devices, and sometimes, bundling an Alexa-compatible device with your Echo purchase yields discounts. And on and around Prime Day, those discounts usually grow. Here are a few examples of bundles currently available.

A Guide To Amazon Echo Devices

Amazon’s Echo lineup is expansive, and the key to getting the best Prime Day 2022 deals is familiarizing yourself with every device in the Echo lineup. Here, we’ll help you pick the right Echo devices to buy.

Amazon Echo

The Amazon Echo is the original smart speaker from Amazon. Older generations have far-field microphones and speakers with Dolby processing. Newer models, however, offer so much more, including the ability to function as a hub for Zigbee smart home devices. The fourth generation Amazon Echo also features a round design, unlike earlier versions that are cylindrical.

The Amazon Echo is best placed in communal areas where its high-quality speakers can be best utilized, such as in living rooms. The older Amazon Echo versions are no longer offered. Only the fourth generation Amazon Echo is available, currently priced at $99.99.

Echo Dot

The Echo Dot is the smallest smart speaker from Amazon. While its audio is not as impressive as the Amazon Echo, it still boasts good-quality speakers. The latest Echo Dot model is the fourth generation Echo Dot, but there are also other Echo Dot models such as the Echo Dot with Clock we reviewed, which doubles as a smart alarm clock, and the Echo Dot Kids’ Edition.

Echo Show

The Echo Show consists of Amazon’s smart displays. They are named according to their screen size, the smallest being the Echo Show 5 and the largest being the Echo Show 15. Each version offers a touchscreen interface, a front-facing camera, and good-quality speakers. You can read our Echo Show 8 review to see examples of what Echo Show devices can do.

Other Echo Devices

There are also other Echo devices designed for specific purposes, such as the Echo Frame, Echo Flex, and Echo Studio.

• Echo Frame ($249.99): Prescription-ready eyeglass frames with Alexa built-in
• Echo Flex ($24.99): Plug-in smart speaker with built-in USB ports to charge your phones or to power night lights and other accessories (read our Echo Flex review)
• Echo Studio ($199.99): Alexa-enabled smart speaker 3D sound powered by Dolby Atmos and can be paired with Echo Sub (subwoofer)
• Echo Buds ($119.99): Wireless earbuds with Alexa built-in

Conclusion

Prime Day 2022 was slated to become the biggest Prime Day event, and so far, Amazon has delivered. From up to $70 off best-selling Echo devices to up to 60 percent off bundles, there’s no shortage of jaw-dropping deals for Prime members.
