Amazon devices are currently discounted by up to 40% as part of a special online offer that includes its smart speakers, displays, tablets and more.

The company sells a wide range of hardware that is powered by its voice assistant technology, letting you control devices using simple commands triggered by the word “Alexa” – from checking the weather to listening to Spotify playlists.

And that technology is now packaged into a huge variety of products – from the Echo Dot (3rd gen) to the portable and child-friendly Fire 7 Kids Pro slate.

Now is a great time to check them out thanks to the Amazon special offer, which includes up to 42% off the Fire 7 Tablet, up to 36% off its Blink camera, up to 30% of the Echo Dot (4th gen) and up to 23% off the new Kindle Paperwhite model.
