- Sometimes, waiting a little longer to buy a gift can be a good idea. Amazon (AMZN) on Tuesday announced a new smart home hub called the Amazon Echo Show, which allows users to control their smart homes and other apps with their voices. And along with it, the company announced that it’s cut the price on its older smart home hub, the Amazon Echo, to $150, a $30 savings from its previous price. That’s a good value for a device that’s still considered one of the best smart home hubs available.
