The Echo Studio just matched its cheapest price of all time
Black Friday sales have made the Echo Studio’s price plummet
The Echo Studio from Amazon is now down to its lowest EVER price in the Black Friday sales. The Alexa-enabled smart speaker with Dolby Atmos is now just £140, marking huge savings of £50 on its regular £190 price tag – that’s over a quarter off.
There’s more to recommend the Echo Studio than its knock-down price: we gave it a commendable four stars in our full-length Amazon Echo Studio review, praising its punchy sound and roster of connectivity options.
The smart speaker makes a bold addition to Amazon’s extensive range of smart speakers, with an audio quality that’s powerful and immersive (although a little bassy at points thanks to its “bass aperture” feature, which helps to “maximise bass reproduction” – worth bearing in mind if you’re into a gentler sound).
Of course, the Echo Studio is powered by smart assistant Alexa, which makes it simple to bark out hands-free orders for it to set a timer, relay the weather forecast or play an audiobook. However, in a notable departure from its sibling speakers, the Echo Studio connects seamlessly to the Fire TV Stick 4K and the Fire TV Cube, for users who’d like to bolster their TV audio. If you’re sans those devices, it can be connected to basically all TVs via its 3.5mm jack.
The Echo Studio was the first speaker to support Amazon’s “3D Audio” format, offering a “multi-dimensional” sound facilitated by its five-driver speaker arrangement. And it really delivers in high volume; our testers report that the audio quality actually sounds more impressive the higher the volume is cranked, which makes it a fantastic option for parties this hosting season.
Matching its record low on Amazon – which it hit just once before for a brief window this autumn – this very palatable £130 price point marks a great deal on the Echo Studio.
