If you're looking to buy the best smart speaker available right now and can't decide whether you should choose Amazon's ultra-affordable Echo Dot Max or the all-new Google Home Speaker with Gemini, you're missing a pretty great third option.

Or rather a first option, as you should primarily consider the high-end Echo Studio and only afterwards look at the undeniably humbler Echo Dot Max and Google Home Speaker if you can't afford Amazon's October 2025-released powerhouse.

$45 off (20%)

This early Prime Day 2026 deal offers you the unique opportunity to save 45 bucks on a second-gen Echo Studio smart speaker that was never very expensive to begin with for the amount of power and unrivaled style it offers in both Glacier White and Graphite colorways.

This is the second Echo Studio edition, improving on the original 2019 generation mainly in the cosmetic department while delivering a similarly premium audio experience with the help of a massive 3.75-inch high excursion woofer (somehow squeezed into a surprisingly compact and lightweight body) and no less than three full-range drivers.

The Echo Studio (2025) tips the scales at 3.6 pounds, which is pretty amazing for how much audio power it packs, and it normally costs $219.99, which is not bad (again, considering the immersive sound promised when you take into account the aforementioned specs and the Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos support).

But now that list price is reduced by 45 bucks, which may not sound like the world's biggest discount, but that does beat every other deal offered by Amazon since the second-gen Echo Studio was released roughly eight months ago.

With Prime Day around the corner, you won't be surprised to hear that this unprecedented promotion comes with a very clear and strict requirement... that most of you can probably meet with ease. After all, who doesn't have an Amazon Prime membership nowadays?

Now, do I know for sure this $45 (or 20 percent) discount will not be improved next week? Obviously not, but my gut feeling (and especially my years and years of experience dealing with such special sales events) tell me this will remain your best money-saving opportunity on the Echo Studio this summer (at the very least).
