Confession: my reliance on Amazon Echo devices has reached a level I’m not entirely proud of — and yet I have no intention of scaling back. The sheer versatility of the platform is difficult to overstate: kitchen timers, real-time weather updates, seamless smart home controls that let me switch off the TV without lifting a finger. Alexa+ has engineered frictionless convenience into everyday life, and frankly, it’s working far too well.
Amazon has a well-established track record of aggressively discounting its own hardware lineup during marquee shopping events — and one of the year’s most compelling opportunities is nearly here: Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. Think of it as the definitive warm-up act before Prime Day arrives. While Presidents’ Day offered modest savings, it simply doesn’t compare in scale or breadth to what this event is set to deliver.
Spanning March 25 through March 31, the Big Spring Sale promises significant price reductions across virtually every product category. Last year’s event featured markdowns reaching as deep as 71% off, and this edition is shaping up to deliver comparable — if not superior — value across the board.
Below are the standout Echo deals available to shop right now.

Why we recommend it
For smart home enthusiasts looking to make a meaningful upgrade during the Big Spring Sale, the new Amazon Echo Show 11 stands out as our definitive top pick. Anchored by a vibrant 11-inch full-HD touchscreen display, this device has been purpose-built around Amazon's next-generation conversational AI assistant, Alexa+. What makes it even more compelling right now: it's currently priced at $169.99, which represents the lowest price point we've tracked for this model to date. Budget-conscious shoppers can also opt for the more compact 8-inch variant, available at $139.99.
Our colleagues at sister publication PCMag have weighed in as well. Reviewer Andrew Gebhart recognized the Echo Show 11 as the premier Alexa+ experience for larger living spaces. Notably, Gebhart highlights that the device's 1,900-by-1,200 pixel resolution actually delivers sharper, more refined image clarity than Amazon's considerably more expensive Echo Show 15 and 21 models — a significant value proposition for display-focused buyers.
