AMAZON'S Alexa smart speakers get rave reviews, and they're now dirt-cheap too – with the Echo Dot down to just £29.99.
This makes it one of the best Amazon deals from this year's Prime Day, and should be high on the list for any bargain hunters.
Amazon's Echo Dot usually sells for a very reasonable £49.99.
But on Prime Day, this price has been slashed to an incredibly low £29.99 – a genuine steal.
That's a huge 40% saving off the R.R.P, saving you £20 on an Echo Dot.
It's also the lowest price Amazon has ever sold the Echo Dot for in the UK.

The Amazon Echo Dot is a smart speaker powered by the Alexa digital assistant.
Alexa is controlled by your voice, so you simply say commands out loud and she'll answer.
She can perform simple tasks like telling you about the news or weather, setting alarms and timers, or playing music.
But she'll also do more complicated things, like ordering Domino's pizza deliveries, arranging Uber taxi pick-ups, and even purchasing items from Amazon.
Alexa has loads of jokes to tell and games to play, and she'll quickly feel like a part of the family.
And Alexa can also control lots of popular smart home devices too, including Philips Hue lighting and Dyson smart fans.
The Echo Dot is the smallest and cheapest speaker in Amazon's Alexa family of devices.

If you've already got your own speaker system, you can plug the Echo Dot into the back and use them for sound output – while retaining her smart voice controls.
All in all, the Echo Dot is probably the easiest way to upgrade your house to a smart home today.
