Amazon Echo vs Google Home: There’s never been a better time to buy a smart speaker

We’d wager that there has never been a better time to go (online) shopping and treat yourself to a shiny new smart speaker. As millions continue to work, exercise, and take lessons at home, there will be ample opportunities to use the always-listening smart assistant to order takeaways, get the latest headlines and weather updates, and call friends and family. And to make things even better, Google and Amazon are offering these intelligent devices at a much lower price – with the gadgets now starting from as little as £29.

Along with the standard speakers being reduced, there’s also the option to save money on smart home gadgets with a touchscreen – such as the Google Nest Hub, Nest Hub Max, and Echo Show series all discounted too.

Whatever you’re looking for to upgrade your home, there is a deal available.

These more interactive gadgets can display a swathe of useful information on their screens such as weather and news reports plus there’s even the option to watch movies or use them as mini karaoke machines.

It’s worth noting that all of the deals above won’t be around for long. Google says its offers end on May 26 and Amazon confirming that the Echo price cut is for a Limited Time only – staying quiet about the actual deadline.

Along with offering discounts on its range of smart speakers, Google has also announced deals on its security systems which even includes a bundle with a Nest Hello and Mini.
