It was a good week to acquire the latest Amazon Echo devices, as many of them have been discounted to near-record levels. The sale that started over the weekend continued and saw prices reduced at the last Echo, Echo Show 5 and Echo Dot, among others. Apple’s MacBook Pro M1 fell to its lowest price thanks to the coupons that accompanied the sale prices, and the Apple Watch SE continues to sell for $ 259. And until Sunday, Best Buy has a limited-time sale in a lot of equipment, including the latest Samsung smartphones, Surface tablets and OLED TVs. Here are the best tech deals this week that you can still get today.
Amazon Echo devices
Nicole Lee / Engadget
Amazon has extended its gold box sale on Echo devices, which reduces things like the Echo Show 5 to $ 50 and the Echo Dot with watch to $ 45. Although most sales prices are not record lows, they are close. We generally like Echo devices for their ease of use and Alexa’s intelligence, so now is a good opportunity to grab one or two if you want to expand Alexa’s presence in your home.

MacBook Pro M1
Engadget
The latest MacBook Pro with Apple’s M1 chipset has the lowest price ever, only $ 1,150 for the base model. This comes from combining a sale price plus an additional coupon that brings the final price to a record low. We gave the MacBook Pro M1 a score of 84 for its super fast performance, excellent keyboard and trackpad and long battery life.

Apple Watch SE
Engadget
Apple Watch SE models have dropped to $ 259 on Amazon, which is $ 20 less than their normal price. Although it is not an all-time low, it is still a good deal on an already affordable smartwatch. We think the SE is the best choice for Apple Watch owners for the first time and those interested in a complete wearable with solid performance and an easy-to-use interface.
