The Echo Dot 5th generation is a great option for streaming over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, via voice commands or from your phone. There’s support for Amazon Music, Spotify, Apple Music and loads of other popular audio services.
There’s also support for Alexa controls, which means you’ll get able to control any compatible smart home devices, as well as the ability to quiz Alexa for information from your calendar or the web.
The Echo Dot 5th generation offered here has been out since 2022, but it’s still the most recent edition of the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth speaker that packs surprisingly big sound for its limited footprint.
It also comes in a variety of colours, all of which are included in this limited-time deal.
Home Technology editor David Ludlow praised the improved audio over the previous generations courtesy of the larger 1.73-inch front-facing speaker to deliver a bigger audio punch. It also looks great and has improved tap controls. He gave it a 4.5 star score from a potential five.
David concluded: “The Amazon Echo Dot (5th generation) is now a capable music speaker, as well as a great smart speaker for smart home control and general enquiries. Overall, this is the best value smart speaker you can buy.”
