The holiday season may be winding down, but that doesn’t mean the deals are gone. One of our favorite smart displays is currently discounted by 43% at Amazon right now. This means you can get the latest model of the Echo Show 8 for just $85. At just $5 more than its all-time low price over Black Friday, you don’t want to miss out.
In certain areas of your home, a smart display makes more sense than a traditional smart speaker. While you’ll still get all the voice-based Alexa commands, the built-in touchscreen is ideal for following a recipe, checking home security cameras, streaming video or seeing the week’s weather forecast. There’s also a built-in camera for video calls, and when you’re not actively using the device, it can function as a digital photo frame.Â
