Amazon’s Astro robot is finally seeing a notable price drop today after the standard-issue model was unveiled way back in 2021. The Amazon Astro bot is now selling for $1,849.99 shipped, down from the regular $2,350. That’s $500 off and the lowest price we have tracked yet. The model on sale here today is the Amazon Astro for Business model that is marketed as a security bot of sorts and works alongside Ring alarm products. It is said to “monitor up to 5,000 square-feet with an HD night vision periscope camera to give you eyes in more places,” but more importantly, you get your very own robot!
Connected to the Astro app, owners can check in from anywhere with live views, the ability to move Astro through your space, and communicate with two-way talkback. And when disarmed, you can use Astro for managing daily tasks with timers, alarms, reminders, and more. Get even more information right here and down below.
