Amazon Black Friday deals<\/a> include discounts on most of the company’s Alexa-enabled devices. One of the best is on the Echo Spot smart alarm clock<\/a>, which is down to $50 right now. That’s $30 off its regular price and only $5 more than the record low.<\/p>\n

For the uninitiated, the Echo Spot is a diminutive little speaker\/alarm clock hybrid unit. It’s a cute little doodad<\/a> and looks great on a nightstand. The screen is customizable, so it doesn’t have to display a clock. It can show song titles, smart home control dashboards, the weather and a lot more. Of course, there are numerous clock faces to choose from.<\/p>\n

The Spot not only integrates with Amazon’s smart assistant Alexa, but it provides access to the newfangled Alexa+<\/a>. This is a smarter and more conversational version of the iconic smart assistant. Like most modern AI products, it’s still working out some bugs<\/a>. The underlying tech, however, is promising.<\/p>\n

The speaker is decent enough for the size, though you won’t be using it to fuel any house parties. It’s a great tool for bedroom-based listening. This version doesn’t have a camera, which is actually great news for the privacy conscious.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Echo Spot, you’ll even find Black Friday deals on some of the latest Echo devices that just came out last month. The Echo Dot Max<\/a> is on sale for $90, the new Echo Studio<\/a> has dropped to $190 and the latest Echo Show 8<\/a> has been discounted to $160.<\/p>\n
