Meet Echo Pop, Amazon’s adorable new smart speaker. Amazon unveiled its Alexa-enabled Echo Pop speaker along with a fleet of other Echo devices in May and the speaker just hit a major price drop in time to make your back-to-school shopping list.
The $40 device, which is currently 38% off plus free shipping for Prime members, introduces users to a completely new form of the Echo speaker that’s perfectly sized for smaller spaces like a bedroom, dorm room, apartment or office. For a limited time only, Prime members can get an all-new Echo Pop for just $24.99.
“It was a big challenge to imagine and deliver a powerful smart speaker at this price,” Rajesh Parthasarathy, principal product manager on the team that built Echo Pop, said in a news release back in May. “We designed a unique form factor and added two new color options—we think customers are going to love it.”
Amazon’s newly released devices currently on sale include the Echo Show 5, which is on sale for $75.99 (reg. $99.99), Echo Auto is on sale $44.99 and the all-new Echo Buds are priced at $49.99).
Echo Pop is available in lavender bloom, charcoal, glacier white and midnight teal. The speaker body is made from recycled aluminum, while the fabric portion features recycled yarn. The speaker itself is also fully recyclable.
