One of the best smart displays in Amazon’s lineup, the 2nd gen Echo Show 8 boasts an eight-inch display, a 13 MP camera and dual speakers. This holiday season, Amazon’s smart hub may be at its lowest price yet.
Amazon has been offering a series of discounts on its smart devices since Black Friday. Its latest offering is an attractive deal on the second-generation Echo Show 8. While this particular model has just received an upgrade, the discount on the previous generation makes it a very compelling offer for anyone on a budget who’s looking to kit their smart home.
The 2nd-gen Echo Show 8 looks strikingly similar to the upgraded version. The display is a respectable eight inches, with support for the new Adaptive Content home screen experience that adjusts the content of the screen based on the proximity of the user. The device is built for a voice-first UX and comes with a 13 megapixel wide-angle camera for sharp video calls.
At a list price of $129.99, the second generation Echo Show 8 had a mixed reception in Amazon’s lineup owing to the lacklustre 1280 × 800 resolution and less-than-stellar audio quality. However, these concerns quickly fade when you consider the latest holiday deal on the second-gen Echo Show 8.
This holiday season, Amazon is slashing the price of its second generation smart display by a whopping 58%, or $75 off. This is the biggest discount on the Echo Show 8 from a major seller, and one of the cheapest offers available for a smart display on the market right now. Buy the second-generation Echo Show 8 for only $54.99 from Amazon.
