Amazon Echo Show 5 slashed by almost half during Big Deal Days sale
Bedside smarts without breaking the bank with almost 50% off
Need a dinky smart display with Alexa on tap? You’re in luck! Amazon’s Echo Show 5 drops digital assistance onto your desktop, kitchen counter or bedside table. And with Amazon’s Big Deal Days sale kicking off, now is the cheapest time to buy one.
Normally available for £90, Amazon has discounted the diminutive display by almost 50% for Prime Day. So you can pick up an Echo Show 5 3rd Gen for the much more affordable price of £50 in the UK. That’s a £40/44% saving – not bad, eh? Or on Amazon US, you can pick it up for $50 instead of $90 – also a 44% saving.
Launched back in 2023, the third-gen Echo Show 5 was already a top choice if you were shopping for an accessible smart display. Fronted by a 5.5in screen that’s angled for easier viewing, you can use it to check the weather, control your smart home and stream box sets (provided your eyesight is sharp). A built-in camera even lets you video call your familiars, while a privacy cover prevents unexpected peeping.
Granted, that touchscreen is smaller than the panels found on most modern smartphones. And the bezels around it aren’t exactly slender. But if you want a straightforward smart display to usurp your alarm clock, you won’t be disappointed for $50/£50.
There’s also an Echo Show 5 Kids edition, complete with a snazzy colourful paint job, child-friendly parental controls, and a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids+. You can currently grab the Echo Show 5 Kids for £55 in the UK, saving £40 off the £100 RRP.
Echo Show 5 not quite what you’re looking for? Amazon has also discounted its Echo Dot smart speaker, plus a range of other Alexa devices. Additional deals are also due on other products as the sale begins in earnest.
