As proof that Amazon is ready to give Echo Dot smart speakers more or less away, the company has just revived a popular deal from last year: you can get one again 3rd generation Echo Dot for 99 cents when you sign up for one month at Amazon Music Unlimited. If you’re an Amazon Prime subscriber, the total cost is only $ 8.98. For non-subscribers: $ 10.98. Just make sure you follow the instructions below.
This offer only applies to new Music Unlimited subscribers. However, if you’ve been a subscriber in the past (or have run a trial), you may still be able to use it.
The last time Amazon made this deal, I heard from Twitter followers that it was difficult to access through the Amazon mobile app. Your mileage may vary. I made my purchase using the desktop browser.
Music Unlimited is of course Amazon’s answer to Spotify. Typically, it costs $ 9.99 a month for a single user or $ 7.99 a month for Prime subscribers. After your first month, you will continue to be charged this rate unless you cancel what you can do at any time.
The Echo Dot is the third generation model, but not the one with the clock. But it’s still a good-sounding, versatile smart speaker that’s priced at $ 50 (though we’re honest, it almost always sells for $ 30).
