While we aren’t seeing the entire fleet of Amazon Devices on sale again ahead of the holidays (yet), with delivery cut-off times fast approaching and folks looking to get things crossed off the gift lists, the deals we are now tracking should be front and center. While we are waiting on some Kindle and Fire tablet offers, Amazon is now offering up to 60% off select devices ahead of the holidays including the best price ever on the new Echo Dot Max, better-than-Black Friday pricing on Echo Spot, return lows on its latest smart displays, and a whole bunch more. Scope it all out down below. 

Just after seeing the Echo Spot land at its best price of the season in the lead up to the holidays, Amazon delivered a new all-time low on the latest Echo Dot Max smart speaker and it has now brought back holiday pricing on the 2025 Echo Show smart speakers. Both the Echo Show 8 and 11 models Amazon released back in September have now returned to all-time low pricing. 

We caught Amazon undercutting its own Black Friday deal on the Echo Spot yesterday, and now it is doing the same thing on the brand new Echo Dot Max. The very first discount hit this model for Black Friday this year at a light 10% off, but you’ll now find this one down at $79.99 shipped to deliver a new all-time low.

Update: Pre-orders are now live on the Echo speakers and displays:

• Amazon Echo Dot Max $100
• Amazon Echo Studio $220
• Amazon Echo Show 8 $180
• Amazon Echo Show 11 $220

Alongside the new Kindle Colorsoft, Ring gear, Blink cams, and more, the headliner reveal of today’s show is the long-awaited next-generation Echo smart speakers and Echo Show smart displays. 

As part of today’s live event in NYC, the all-new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft has been revealed. This new reader-meets-tablet takes on all of the stylus action of the existing Kindle Scribe, but as the name suggests also delivers a full color screen like that of the existing Kindle Colorsoft. There’s some other new models too.

Update: Pre-orders are now live on the Echo speakers and displays:

• Amazon Echo Dot Max $100
• Amazon Echo Studio $220
• Amazon Echo Show 8 $180
• Amazon Echo Show 11 $220

Today could be a big day for the Amazon Devices team as it is set to take the stage in NYC to reveal what appears to be the next-generation of Echo devices (likely some Kindle and Fire TV action too). While much of its current lineup of Echo smart speakers and devices, as well as some Kindles and the Fire TV Sticks are already seeing as much as 50% price drops as part of the early Prime Big Deals Days sale, the next-generation models appear to be on the horizon, and we will know all about them this morning.

Thankfully, this guide is here to help clarify the features that distinguish each model in order to make your decision a much easier one.

Twelve South is a brand that’s garnered a lot of attention by committing itself solely to the development of Apple product accessories.
