Amazon Echo costs just $130 right now
Amazon's smart speaker Echo is currently on sale, with the price being reduced from $179.99 to $129.99.
The promotion is valid until the end of Monday, ET time.
The discounted price is especially interesting as it brings the Echo down to the same level as the competing Google Home, which costs $129.
Amazon Echo comes with a solid speaker and Amazon's digital assistant, Alexa, whose array of skills is constantly being increased through software updates.
One thing Echo doesn't have, though, is a screen. In May, Amazon debuted the Echo Show, a smart speaker with a built-in seven inch screen that comes out later this month. At $229.99, the Show is quite a bit of a bump, price-wise, so if you don't absolutely need the screen or the camera, grabbing the discounted Echo now is probably a better option.
