Now that Amazon's Big Deal Days 2024 mega-sale has arrived, you're likely stocking up on all the goodies you can get your hands on, from beauty products to fashion finds to viral items. After all, the two-day sale only lasts from Oct. 8 to 9, meaning you'll need to act swiftly to snag all the best October Prime Day deals at impressive discounts, including the beloved Amazon Echo Dot, which, FYI, makes a great gift for the holidays. In fact, I found not one, but *four* deals on the smart tech devices that are not to be missed. Of course, you'll need to be a Prime member to access them, so if you aren't already, sign up for a free trial now, and these Amazon Echo Dot sales will be waiting for you on the other side.

More specifically, the mega-retailer's popular device, the Echo Pop smart speaker, will be sitting pretty (literally) for as low as $18 (from $40), so how could you not scoop it up? I’m constantly impressed by its list of functions and compact size. I’m snagging one for every room since it's also Alexa-compatible (meaning you can easily "Ask Alexa" to help you complete any task, from playing music to checking the weather). But that's not all—you can also score savings on the fourth generation Echo Dot ($100; $55) that boasts more than 117,000 5-star reviews, as well as the fifth generation Echo Dot ($50; $23) that has more than 100,000 perfectly satisfied customers.

Not sure which device is right for you? Read up on the best Amazon Echo Dot deals below and get ready to upgrade your home accordingly.

Among all the Echo Dot models on sale during October Prime Day, this guy is at the top of my list. Why, you ask? Well, that's easy. It features all the Echo Dot features I love, like using Alexa to answer questions and set alarms, and some other functions I’m particularly excited about. For instance, if you already own another Echo device, you can even play synchronized music across different rooms. One buyer has also convinced me that it may be the best of the bunch: "It seems to produce more sound than previous versions...with a little more bass and louder max volume," they rave. "This could also be due to the sound-mapping feature that allows Echo to maximize the sound by detecting the acoustics and shape of the room." I’m certainly interested in finding out.

However, you also can't go wrong with this 2022 version, and, yes, you can set still timers while you cook, blast music and chat to friends. In addition to that, it has a shorter height and width than the previous model, so you won't have to sacrifice your precious counter space. Another way the fifth generation differs from its predecessor? It has a clock on the front, which can certainly come in handy for those of us who don't like to wear a watch. Lastly, while most of the other features are the same as the previous Echo Dot, the brand states that this one has even better sound quality for louder, more transparent audio.

Introducing the ultimate pick for audiophiles *and* dancers: the Echo Studio. Indeed, the audio experience is the biggest boast when it comes to this device. It's enhanced with spatial audio processing technology, which means you'll be getting a more immersive sound exposure, according to the brand. The gadget also analyzes the acoustics of the room in which it's placed to create a smart listening experience. It has the same features as the other Echo devices, like voice commands, compatibility with Alexa devices and a smart-home hub. Plus, the sleek design will fit right in with your decor, but our only hope is that we'll be jamming out like the pair in the photo above.

Small space-friendly (no, seriously, it can even fit in your roomy crossbody) and irresistibly affordable, this device is definitely one of the best deals you'll snag within the next 48 hours. It packs a ton of functionality, including Alexa compatibility, so you can effortlessly check the weather and reorder your most-used supplies. Most importantly, the speaker easily connects to your phone through Bluetooth to play your favorite songs from most music apps, from Apple Music to Spotify. Not to mention, reviewers say the audio seems more directional, so it should easily fill the room and sound clear.
