Amazon unveiled a bunch of new devices this morning, and folks everywhere are asking how to preorder the Echo Dot (5th gen) as soon as possible. Well, you’ve come to the right place.
The newest version of the Alexa smart speaker will be released on October 20th, and three versions are available for preorder now: the standard Echo Dot, the Echo Dot with Clock, and the Echo Dot Kids. The standard Dot is selling for $49.99 (opens in new tab) and is available in Charcoal, Glacier White, and a particularly stylish Deep Sea Blue variety.
The Echo Dot with Clock is selling for $59.99 (opens in new tab) and is available in Cloud Blue and Glacier White, while the kid-friendly version is also $59.99 (opens in new tab) and available in either adorable owl or ferocious dragon varieties.
No matter which Echo Dot you choose to buy for your home, you’ll be getting a new-and-improved Amazon smart speaker that delivers improved audio quality, deeper bass than previous generations, and seamless device pairing. One of the coolest things about the newest generation of Echo Dot smart speakers is that each unit also acts as a range extender if you use Amazon’s eero WiFi — adding up to 1,000 feet of coverage to your existing connection. Not too shabby for a small talking orb! Keep reading for links to preorder the speakers now.
