Amazon’s Echo Dot Max reportedly dropped to $80 in early Prime Day deal

Gizmodo reported on Sept. 29 that Amazon had discounted the Echo Dot Max to $80 from a listed $120, a 33% price cut the outlet framed as an early Prime Day deal and a record low. Gizmodo said the sale applied to all three color options — Glacier White, Amethyst, and Graphite — and that the Amazon listing offered free shipping while labeling the promotion a limited-time deal. The deal article also described the Echo Dot Max as a compact Alexa-enabled speaker that doubles as a smart home hub and can act as a mesh Wi‑Fi extender for an existing eero network.
