If you missed those jaw-dropping deals on Black Friday, getting that best deal for an Amazon Echo Show device could be that chance you must not pass up, given the huge discounts offered on the Amazon Prime Day, the annual deal event from July 12-13 exclusive for Amazon Prime members.
Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen, 2021 release) - Glacier White bundle with Blink Mini
List Price:$164.98
With Deal: $84.99
You Save: $79.99
Amazon's Echo Show smart displays are all on sale for Prime Day, key among them is the mouthwatering $84.99 tag for the Eco Show 8, which is a record-low $79.99 off its usual price. Also with deep price cuts are the Echo Show 5 for only $35, the swiveling Echo Show 10 for $189.99 and the Echo Show 15 for $209.98 as well.
The $84.99 price for the second-generation Echo 8 is certainly the most stunning offering this Prime Day. Its 8-inch, 1,280 x 800-resolution touchscreen, minimalist design and solid sound quality make the Echo 8 a real prime buy! Because it's larger than the Echo Show 5, you'll get stronger sound overall with reverberating powerful bass and volume. This version of the Echo Show 8 only differs from the first-generation device with its updated 13-megapixel video camera, which digitally pans and zooms to keep you in frame when you're video chatting on apps like Zoom. While those who use it for video chatting consider this feature as a game-changer, those who don't think this is a relatively small feature, making them opt for the less expensive first-generation version.
Echo Show 5 (2nd Gen, 2021 release) - Deep Sea Blue bundle with Blink Mini
List Price: $119.98
With Deal: $44.99
You Save: $74.99 (63%)
While the Show 8 could make a good kitchen or office device, the Echo Show 5 is considered one of the best "smart alarm clocks" with its compact size, tap-to-snooze feature and its decent sound quality. Despite being the latest generation Show 5, it doesn't offer advanced video chatting features that the Echo Show 8 offers, but it can still be used for basic video calls.

List Price: $284.98

If you prefer big screens, the Echo Show 10 or the Show 15 is your best buy. The Echo Show 10 automatically swivels to follow you when you're on video calls, making users always in frame and see the screen all the time. It also has the same auto-framing features that the Echo Show 8 offers, making it the among the best options for those who video chat often. The Show 10 also has a built-in Zigbee smart home hub, which allows users to connect such things as smart lights, locks and more directly to the display without having an extra hub to make these work.
Echo Show 15 with Blink Mini Indoor Smart Security Camera
List Price: $284.98
With Deal: $209.98
You Save: $75.00 (26%)
The Echo Show 15, meanwhile, is a wall-mountable, Alexa-enabled touchscreen, which is almost like a digital cork board. Users can customize it to have notes, to-do lists and more using widgets on the display, or use it to watch recipe videos or even shows and movies on Netflix, Prime Video and more. It also uses a "visual and voice ID" feature to recognize who's looking at the screen or who's giving an Alexa command, so it can then display the most relevant information for that person on the screen.
