Amazon Echo Show Prime Day deals — I found 4 deals with up to 40% off, and one even has early access to Alexa+
My house is kitted out from top to bottom with Amazon Alexa Smart speakers, but I've had my eyes on the Amazon Echo Shows for some time now, and the Prime Day deals mean this is the perfect time for an upgrade.
Right now, there are some of the best deals I have seen on these display speakers, and there's something to suit everyone. My favorite has to be the Amazon Echo Show 8 for just $109 at Amazon with a saving of 27% from $149, and it even has early access to Alexa+.
For a rundown of the best Prime Day Amazon Echo Show deals, keep scrolling!
The Amazon Echo Show 5 is available in three colors to complement any home interior; black, cloud blue and glacier white. The 5.5-inch display is more than enough to show you the latest news headlines at a glance, and if you have other Amazon devices like a Ring Doorbell, you can view the cameras and respond directly from the Echo. There is also a built in 2MP camera that you can use as an interior security camera, and even keep an eye on your pets when you pop out to the grocery store. I love than you can use the display as a photo frame, and select a slideshow of your favorite pictures to pop up in any room. While it is smaller than the Echo Show 8, it still delivers everything you need and more. Despite its size, the sound is still well rounded and dang loud! I love that I can control the music just by asking Alexa, or just tapping the screen, rather than having to rely on my phone.
This is the newest version of the Amazon Echo Show 8 and it has had some major upgrades. There is improved audio, including spatial audio, and room acoustic sensing to get the most out of your favorite music. The processor has been improved for faster responses from the display, making the overall experience so much smoother. As an added bonus, you're also getting early access to Alexa+ when you buy the Echo Show 8. There are only two color choices with the Show 8; charcoal or glacier white, but both are understated. The HD touchscreen on the Echo Show 8 is also bigger than the Show 5 at eight-inches. The camera has also had a major upgrade and is now 13MP, making it easier to stay connected and make calls with other Echo Show users (this is one of my favorite features). Pairing with your smart home hub also couldn't be easier as it supports Bluetooth and WiFi to manage any cameras or lighting you may have by using Alexa voice commands. And perhaps best of all, you can watch your favorite shows by connecting to Prime Video or Netflix, so you can keep up with your latest binge watch while getting on with your day.
This is the iteration of the Echo Show 5 just for Kids. It has all the same features as the regular Echo Show with calling enabled and access to streaming for TV and music. But is also has learn and play functions, so kids can even ask Alexa for help with their homework. Included in this awesome Prime Day deal is a 1-year subscription to Amazon Kids+, which includes kid-friendly songs, shows and audio books. With parental controls, usage limits can be set, and Alexa with also filter any explicit lyrics in songs that are playing. It's a really cool first step into the world of independence for kids.
Okay, I hear ya! This technically isn't an Echo Show, but it does have a cute display screen with the time and weather forecast. At $44, this compact speaker is an absolute steal. I have one on my nightstand at home and I can enjoy pretty great audio while the display screen shows me what's playing. This is a feature I actually love since it's a little like having the vinyl case propped up next to the record player (except not at all). Having Alexa just a shout away when I wake up in the morning is also super convenient. I have set a wake up routine so Alexa wakes me up with music, instantly putting me in a better mood than when I used the harsh alarm from my phone. While you don't get the headlines or vibrant images of the Echo Show models, the Echo Spot is more than enough to have on your nightstand, and it actually makes everything so much easier. It also comes in three colors, black, glacier white and ocean blue, to go with whatever room decor you have.

Google Just Kickstarted a New AI Spending Wave. Buy This Top-Rated Stock to Benefit.
Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks have become some of Wall Street's most powerful growth drivers, as companies invest billions into cloud infrastructure, advanced chips, and generative AI platforms. Google (GOOGL) just lit a fresh spark by raising its 2025 capital expenditure target to $85 billion, most of it aimed at AI servers and data centers, a move that could set off a broader spending wave among its Big Tech peers. One stock particularly well positioned to benefit is Amazon (AMZN). Ranked as one of the top-rated AI stocks with a large U.S. presence by Barchart, Amazon is already a leader in AI-driven cloud services through AWS, powering everything from machine learning tools to foundation models. With Big Tech racing to expand AI capacity, Amazon's scale and early lead make it a prime candidate for long-term growth. More News from Barchart Warren Buffett Warns Inflation Turns Business Into 'The Upside-Down World of Alice in Wonderland' But Weeds Out 'Bad Businesses' Why GOOGL Stock May Be the Market's Next Big Winner Alphabet Posts Lower Free Cash Flow and FCF Margins - Is GOOGL Stock Overvalued? Stop Missing Market Moves: Get the FREE Barchart Brief – your midday dose of stock movers, trending sectors, and actionable trade ideas, delivered right to your inbox. Sign Up Now! About Amazon Stock Founded in 1994 by Jeff Bezos, Amazon has grown into one of the world's most influential companies, built on a foundation of innovation, customer focus, and operational excellence. Amazon's unique ecosystem spans e-commerce, cloud computing, and digital services. Its extensive fulfillment network and technologies such as AWS and custom silicon chips give it a strong competitive edge. The company's ongoing investments in artificial intelligence and automation continue to position it as a leader in both retail and cloud markets. With a market capitalization of $2.46 trillion, Amazon's shares have made an impressive recovery from April's slump. Despite market volatility fueled by tariffs, the stock is still up 6.1% year-to-date. Amazon's valuation remains elevated, similar to other members of the 'Magnificent Seven.' Its price-sales ratio stands at 3.9x, well above the sector median of 1x. However, a trailing PEG ratio of 0.52x makes it about 36% cheaper than the sector median, suggesting some room for upside. AWS at the Forefront of AI Innovation Amazon Web Services (AWS) is central to Amazon's AI strategy. AWS offers a complete AI stack from custom processors to cloud AI services and tools. For example, AWS builds its own AI hardware (custom Inferentia and Trainium chips) and provides managed AI services like Amazon Bedrock (for large language and vision models) and Amazon Nova (a new suite of proprietary AI models). Amazon Is Set to Report Q2 Earnings Amazon will report Q2 2025 (June quarter) results on July 31, after the closing bell. Analysts currently expect second-quarter revenue of roughly $162 billion, up about 9.5% year-over-year. This is near the high end of Amazon's own guidance of between $159 billion and $164 billion. Analysts expect 8.1% growth in earnings per share to $1.33. Amazon's stated guidance was broad, calling for operating income between $13 billion and $17.5 billion, reflecting uncertainties, but Wall Street's view is optimistic. The AWS and Ads segments, fueled by enterprise AI demand and retail media trends, are expected to drive most of this growth. What Do Analysts Say About AMZN Stock Amazon currently carries a 'Strong Buy' consensus among Wall Street analysts. According to Barchart, 47 rate it a 'Strong Buy,' six rate it a 'Moderate Buy' and one rates it a 'Hold.' The average 12‑month price target sits at $254.38, suggesting about 10% upside from current levels. Among notable calls, Morgan Stanley recently named Amazon its top internet stock, pointing to accelerating AWS growth and the boost from generative AI. Baird's Colin Sebastian reiterated an 'Outperform' rating, highlighting the potential of Project Kuiper and raising his target from $220 to $244. Bank of America also lifted its target to $265 while maintaining a 'Buy' rating ahead of Q2 earnings.

The Roku Streaming Stick 4K is one of CNET's favorite streaming devices, making this a worthwhile deal on a device you'll be glad to have. My, how things have changed. When it comes to streaming, the stick I trust the most is my Roku Streaming Stick 4K. This small but mighty streaming gadget has allowed me to be a loyal cord-cutter club member for as long as I can remember. Nowadays, cutting the cord is simpler than it's ever been, and becoming a stream-only household is no longer a farfetched idea. If you ever wished for a place to house all your streaming services and keep track of where you left off in any movie or show, no matter where you are, my favorite streaming device is perfect for the job. And if you've been waiting for a sign to make the jump, here it is. I've had my Roku for a couple of years, and my home entertainment experience has changed drastically. Guests never cease to be amazed and always wonder how I do it and whether it is cheaper than traditional cable. From Peacock to Hulu, binge-watching the latest seasons of FX's The Bear, Love Island USA and NBC's Destination X are made easy. All that's needed is a Wi-Fi connection, an HDMI port, streaming services and the Roku Stick to access an endless amount of entertainment. Right now on Amazon, the Roku Streaming Stick 4K is $10 off, bringing it down to $40. But that's not all. The Roku Streaming Stick 4K Plus is also on sale for $11 off, slashing it down to $29.

Whether I'm blasting music on Spotify or watching the latest season of Top Chef, my Roku Streaming Stick has me covered. It can plug into my TV for a chill night in or into my Epson Home Cinema 1080 projector for movie nights or hosting parties. To get the full movie theater experience, I pair my Roku with the Vizio V-Series 2.0 sound bar. An added bonus is that a couple of years back, at a white elephant party, I was secretly gifted a Tzumi Bluetooth Microphone, and hosting karaoke nights hasn't been the same; guests are always impressed. Do I need a 4K TV to use this Roku stick? In recent years, 4K TVs have become more common, but the Roku Streaming Stick 4K is also compatible with older HD TVs. It offers up to 1080p resolution and upscaling from 720p. This just means that you don't need a fancy screen to enjoy a sharper picture while enjoying the entertainment you love. The Roku Streaming Stick 4K is compatible with HD and 4K TVs and more. Roku Can I still access live TV with the Roku stick? The best thing about this streaming stick for me is that I still have access to live TV. Thanks to streaming services like Peacock and Hulu Plus Live TV, I can watch the Food Network or the DirectTV Stream in real time. You might be thinking, don't all those streaming service subscriptions add up? With bundling options and internet providers offering deals with certain contracts, it can actually cost less than cable. I love the Roku Streaming Stick because it's small and portable, and I've never had any problems with it not working. Occasionally, my Roku will reboot for updates or I'll need to change the remote batteries, but that's a small thing compared with a cable box or satellite service outage.

Dangbei Introduces the 'N2 mini' Portable Projector
Dangbeihas been making waves in theprojectorspace for a while now, having launched the world's first officially Netflix-licensed 4K laser projectorlast year. More recently, the brand introduced theDangbei N2 mini– a portable projector that sits on the opposite end of the spectrum from its flagshipMars Pro 2, both in terms of size and price – adding an accessibly priced yet feature-rich option to its growing lineup. TheDangbei N2 miniis one of the brand's smallest projectors, weighing just under 3.8 pounds and standing about 9.5-inches tall. Yet despite its compact size, it packs a surprising amount of features and functionality, including Dangbei's proprietary, AI-poweredInstanProtechnology – the same that's found in its larger and more expensive models. Unlike Dangbei's other models, though, the N2 Mini runs on a Linux-based smart operating system rather than Google's Android TV. One likely reason for this is to avoid Google's costly licensing fees – a decision presumably to help keep the projector's price accessible. It's worth noting, however, that this doesn't come at the expense of features or functionality. Despite its simple interface, the Linux-based operating system (OS) is both easy to use and visually appealing, and it comes preloaded with officially licensed apps including Netflix, Prime Video, and YouTube. These apps can also be launched with a single click, thanks to dedicated buttons on the projector's remote, and Dangbei says there are over 300 additional apps available to download onto the device – though, naturally, these don't have their own dedicated buttons on the remote. The main body of theN2 mini– the actual projector – sits on a stand that doubles up as a gimbal and offer users 190° of built-in tilt options – including ceiling projection. Simplicity is a recurring theme with the N2 and the gimbal is operated by gently pushing in the preferred direction; there's no locking mechanism, it it simply holds itself in place. TheDangbei N2 miniprojects native 1080p visuals in sizes between 40 and 120-inches, and features 200 lumens of maximum brightness. While this doesn't sound very bright on paper, it performs surprisingly well in daylight and excels in smaller rooms with lower light – think evenings and spaces with drawn curtains. Additionally, the included InstanPro technology means theminiwill automatically resize and straighten the image to give you the best view possible, while offering automatic focusing and keystone correction. Connectivity options include both Bluetooth 5.2 and Wi-Fi 6, with input ports consisting of one HDMI and one USB-A 2.0. There's also a 3.5mm audio output, allowing users to connect headphones or wired speakers if the built-in six-watt speakers don't cut it. Perhaps surprisingly, given its modest audio hardware, the N2 supports Dolby Audio, Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus. TheDangbei N2 miniis available now via the brand'swebsiteand select retailers priced at £199 GBP / $229 USD / €279 EUR.
