The Echo Dot is Amazon’s best-selling smart speaker because it gives people an affordable way to put Alexa in multiple rooms around the house. The bigger Echo speakers obviously offer better sound quality and they’re great if you plan to stream music pretty often, but the Echo Dot is only $50 so it’s great for spots where you just want to be able to chat with Alexa. Of course, if chatting with Alexa is your intention, there’s an even less expensive way to do it. In fact, at its new lower price of just $14.99, you can pick up three Eufy Genie Smart Speakers with Hands-Free Amazon Alexa on Amazon for less than one Echo Dot!
