Whether you just want some tunes as you horbgorble around at home or need to entertain some coworkers at a <span class=\"waslinkname\">music dance experience<\/span>, there\u2019s something for you here \u2014 and best of all, these are on sale.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"caas-list caas-list-bullet\">\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Beats Pill Bluetooth speaker for $100 ($50 off)<\/strong><\/span>: The new Beats portable speaker just came out a few months ago, and we called it a <span class=\"waslinkname\">worthy revival<\/span> of a classic Beats product in our review. It has improved sound, a longer battery life and a rugged build.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Soundcore Motion 300 for $60 ($20 off)<\/strong><\/span>: This sub-two-pound sound-maker delivers a bright, punchy output from 30-watt speakers. We found it to have a crisp high end and fairly thumpy bass when it has walls to bounce the sound off of. Plus it\u2019s waterproof and goes for 13 hours on a charge. This Prime-members-only price matches its all-time low.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Anker Soundcore Motion+ for $69 ($31 off)<\/strong><\/span>: This little guy comes in at just over two pounds and has a bright and bassy output. It can play songs for around 12 hours on a charge and we particularly appreciate the solid build with its metal grille. This Prime-exclusive deal matches the lowest price yet.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Tribit StormBox Micro 2 for $48 ($32 off)<\/strong><\/span>: This is the smallest music box on our list, and we like it because it packs serious sound for its size. The audio isn\u2019t the highest fidelity, but the rubbery strap is perfect for strapping onto a pack, bike handlebar or elsewhere.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>JBL Flip 6 for $80 ($50 off)<\/strong><\/span><strong>: <\/strong>After reading our guide, this is the speaker I bought, and I can confirm this crowler-sized device has great sound quality, is durable as heck and I love that it sounds great on its side or stood on end.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Marshall Emberton II for $100 ($70 off)<\/strong><\/span>: This clutchable model has two 10-watt drivers and passive radiators for 360-degree sound. While it\u2019s not super loud, we found the output to be nicely balanced. You\u2019ll get up to 30 hours of play on a charge and it has a IP67 water- and dust-resistance rating.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Marshall Middleton for $250 ($50 off)<\/strong><\/span>: This is the flagship in Marshall\u2019s waterproof\/portable line. We like the top-notch sound quality and impressive output from the dual woofers, tweeters for the front and back, and passive radiators along each side.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Ultimate Ears Hyperboom for $320 ($130 off)<\/strong><\/span>: At 13 pounds, this UE speaker pushes the boundaries of portable, verging into shelf speaker territory. It made the cut in our guide thanks to its good looks, loud output and ample port options. It\u2019ll play for 24 hours on a charge, too.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>JBL Go 3 for $28 ($12 off)<\/strong><\/span>: The smallest JBL speaker isn&#8217;t on our list of the best speakers, but many other models from the speaker company have earned high praise from our reviewers. This deal is the lowest price we&#8217;ve seen on this pocket sized music machine, just note that only Prime members get the full discount.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"best-october-prime-day-smart-speaker-deals\">Best October Prime Day smart speaker deals<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"caas-figure\">\n<div class=\"caas-figure-with-pb\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"caas-img-container caas-img-loader\"><img class=\"caas-img caas-lazy has-preview\" alt=\"The Echo Dot smart speaker sits on a wooden shelf next to a stack of books. \" data-src=\"https:\/\/wp.worldtechguide.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/the-best-prime-day-bluetooth-speaker-deals-we-could-find-during-amazons-big-deal-days-sale-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Echo Dot smart speaker sits on a wooden shelf next to a stack of books. \" src=\"https:\/\/wp.worldtechguide.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/the-best-prime-day-bluetooth-speaker-deals-we-could-find-during-amazons-big-deal-days-sale-1.jpg\" class=\"caas-img\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"caption-collapse\"><span class=\"caption-credit\"> Photo by Amy Skorheim \/ Engadget<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>I never thought I\u2019d own a <span class=\"waslinkname\">smart speaker<\/span>, but now I ask Alexa for everything \u2014 turn on the smart lights, set a noodle timer, remind me about Saturday\u2019s group FaceTime and, most importantly, tell me the weather today. It\u2019s always a good idea to get these devices on sale, so take advantage of these Prime Day prices while you can.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"caas-list caas-list-bullet\">\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Sonos Era 100 for $199 ($50 off)<\/strong><\/span>: The Sonos Era 100 is our pick for the <span class=\"waslinkname\">best midrange<\/span> smart speaker. The sound quality is excellent, it pairs well with other Sonos devices and there are plenty of useful features \u2014 which should only improve once Sonos resolves all of its <span class=\"waslinkname\">app issues<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Amazon Echo Dot (5th Gen) for $23 ($27 off)<\/strong><\/span>: The Dot is the most popular model in Amazon\u2019s smart speaker family. Though it\u2019s small, it puts out decent volume and music sounds pretty good from its speakers. But where it really shines is acting as your daily smart home assistant.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Amazon Echo (4th Gen) for $50 ($50 off)<\/strong><\/span>:The full-sized model is probably a better option if you plan to use your Echo as a music source regularly \u2014 not surprisingly, its bigger size makes for bigger sound, plus you can pair two together. It\u2019s our recommendation for a smart speaker under $100.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Amazon Echo Spot (2nd gen) for $45 ($35 off)<\/strong><\/span>: The half-a-softball Spot with its tiny display went away for a time, but <span class=\"waslinkname\">came back<\/span> with a new look and a half-moon screen that can display the time, weather and the song that\u2019s playing.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Amazon Echo Pop for $18 ($22 off)<\/strong><\/span>: The tiniest Echo device is best suited to a small space where it would be helpful to have Alexa\u2019s assistance. It\u2019s not built for high fidelity music playing, but will bop out a song as you get ready or make some dinner.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"best-october-prime-day-soundbar-deals\">Best October Prime Day soundbar deals<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"caas-figure\">\n<div class=\"caas-figure-with-pb\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"caas-img-container caas-img-loader\"><img class=\"caas-img caas-lazy has-preview\" alt=\"Sonos Ray review photos\" data-src=\"https:\/\/wp.worldtechguide.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/the-best-prime-day-bluetooth-speaker-deals-we-could-find-during-amazons-big-deal-days-sale-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Sonos Ray review photos\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.worldtechguide.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/the-best-prime-day-bluetooth-speaker-deals-we-could-find-during-amazons-big-deal-days-sale-2.jpg\" class=\"caas-img\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"caption-collapse\"><span class=\"caption-credit\"> Nathan Ingraham \/ Engadget<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>It\u2019s not just you. The dialogue in TV shows is getting <span class=\"waslinkname\">tougher to suss out<\/span>. In my house, a soundbar has made a world of difference. Of course, these long speakers and sets also make movies more immersive. Engadget\u2019s Billy Steele tested out a bunch, putting his favorites in our <span class=\"waslinkname\">soundbar guide<\/span> and, in good news for anyone ready to turn off the subtitles, Prime Day deals extend to a few winning models.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"caas-list caas-list-bullet\">\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Sonos Beam for $399 ($100 off)<\/strong><\/span>: The Sonos Beam is our favorite midrange soundbar. It has solid sound quality, support for Dolby Atmos and is easy to set up. Just note that it only has one HDMI port, so you can\u2019t hook up a console directly to the speaker.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Sonos Ray for $169 ($110 off)<\/strong><\/span>: This is the lowest price we&#8217;ve seen yet for this <span class=\"waslinkname\">recommended<\/span> soundbar, at over $100 off. We like the Sonos Ray because it&#8217;s an affordable option that puts out excellent sound in a compact bar with easy setup.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Sonos Arc for $719 ($180 off)<\/strong><\/span>: In our guide to soundbars, we mention the Arc, noting that it&#8217;s definitely the company&#8217;s best sounding soundbar \u2014 but the price, and the fact that there&#8217;s likely an updated Arc on the way make it harder to fully recommend. Still it got a <span class=\"waslinkname\">positive review from us<\/span> and if you&#8217;re the type to go with the tried and true model over the new one and you want to save a chunk of change, this could be the deal for you.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span class=\"waslinkname\"><strong>Sonos Sub Mini for $343 ($86 off)<\/strong><\/span>: Here&#8217;s a 20 percent discount on the Sub Mini. We gave it good marks in our <span class=\"waslinkname\">official review<\/span>, calling it a Sonos subwoofer that&#8217;s &#8220;more affordable and practical for smaller spaces.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Follow <\/em><span class=\"waslinkname\"><em>@EngadgetDeals<\/em><\/span><em> on Twitter for the latest tech deals and buying advice, and stay tuned to Engadget.com for all of the best tech deals coming out of <\/em><span class=\"waslinkname\"><em>October Prime Day 2024.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to speakers, you often get what you pay for \u2014 which makes Amazon\u2019s October Prime Day a very good time to pick up highly rated (and otherwise pricey) Bluetooth or smart speakers while they\u2019re cheaper than usual.
