Seriously, This Is an Amazing Black Friday Deal – CNET [CNET]

View Article on CNET

There are a bunch of good Black Friday deals from Amazon right now, but I think I’ve found one of the absolute best. It’s not often that you save 62% when bundling two items together and it’s especially rare when that bundle includes two legitimately useful products that I genuinely believe improve every home.

That’s why this bundle that pairs the newest Amazon Echo Dot with the white light Philips Hue smart bulb is the deal to beat this year. The Amazon Echo Dot sees its first discount ever — and a steep one at that —  and comes with a white light Philips Hue smart bulb that works perfectly with Alexa. You’ll be able to screw in the bulb and pair it with your Echo Dot smart speaker for immediate automated lighting bliss.

The new Echo Dot brings with it some great improvements and new features, like the fact that it can act as an Eero extender if you have an existing Eero mesh system at home. Amazon touts this as its “best sounding Echo yet,” making it even better for playing your favorite tunes around the house. It has all the same Alexa smarts built into it to help you control your smart home, convert measurements, set timers and so much more. 

Each year, Amazon offers a similar bundle during Black Friday and Prime Day. Every single time these sell out. All three colors will likely sell out, so we strongly recommend getting your order in sooner than later if you’re interested.
