As early Prime Day deals<\/a> continue to become available, Amazon has revealed an all-new Echo Spot<\/a> ahead of t<\/a>he shopping event. It\u2019s very much like the original Echo Spot<\/a> that came out in 2017 and was discontinued two years later<\/a> except the front face is now split between a hemispherical display and speaker.<\/p>\n The Echo Spot’s<\/a> outer shell comes in Black, Glacier White and Ocean Blue, and the display can be customized with six hues: magenta, violet, orange, lime, teal or blue, which can be mixed- and-matched with various clock faces. The new Echo Spot costs $80, which is $50 cheaper than the original model \u2014 but if you\u2019re a Prime member, you can get it for $45 through Prime Day<\/a>.<\/p>\n Amazon says the new model comes with better sound and a sharper display. Time will tell if the reboot suffers from the same screen flicker issues<\/a> as its predecessor. Otherwise, the conceit is more or less identical: it’s a bare-bones smart alarm clock that, via Alexa integration, can manage a few simple tasks like providing the weather forecast or showing song titles when playing music from your streaming app of choice.<\/p>\n Arguably, the best part about the new Echo Spot is that it doesn\u2019t have a camera. The original model had one baked in, which was useful for video chats, but not everyone was enthused about having a camera sitting on their bedside.<\/p>\n Your Prime Day Shopping Guide<\/em><\/strong>: See all of our<\/em> Prime Day<\/em><\/a> coverage.
