Amazon has released an all-new version of its Echo Spot ahead of Prime Day, the company announced on Monday. The 2024 version of the Alexa-enabled smart alarm clock costs $79.99, but is currently on sale for $44.99 for Prime members.

The company says the latest iteration of the product comes with better visuals and improved audio quality. The device is available in Black, Glacier White and Ocean Blue.

The Echo Spot is designed to sit on your nightstand and features a display that lets you set and view alarms, and see the time, weather and song titles. It also features a 1.73” front-firing directional speaker that delivers “clear vocals and deep bass.”

Unlike the 2017 Echo Spot, the newest version doesn’t have an integrated camera for video calling. This change could be a welcome one, especially for people who didn’t want to have a device with a camera in their bedroom. And while the previous Echo Spot featured a full, circular screen, the latest version splits the front of the device with a speaker.

The device is Alexa-enabled, so you can use your voice to set alarms. You also can ask Alexa to play a certain song, call someone, make household announcements and more.

Like its predecessor, the new Echo Spot can be customized. You can mix and match colors with a variety of clock faces or choose from six different color arrangements: magenta, violet, orange, lime, teal or blue.

Unlike Amazon’s Echo Show products, the Echo Spot’s display is designed to show animations as opposed to video. For instance, when you ask Alexa about the weather, the Echo Spot displays illustrations on the screen to reflect the weather alongside the temperature.

You also can connect Echo Spot to compatible smart home products and set up Alexa Routines to automate daily tasks.
