When it comes to Prime Big Deal Days discounts, some of the best are on Amazon’s own products including the Echo devices that are Alexa-enabled. We’ve found one in particular that’s such a good offer we had to share it separately. Of course, we’re talking about the bundle that includes the Echo Show 5 and a Tapo smart color bulb for just $50, normally $115. That saves you about $65 or 56% which is fantastic. But also, since the bulb is Alexa-ready, you can install it in a lamp or light fixture and then control it from your new Echo Show using your voice — after connecting to WiFi, of course. Don’t skip this deal if you don’t have an Echo in your home yet.
Why shop this Echo Show 5 and TP-Link Tapo color bulb bundle?
First, while this bundle’s savings are higher in total, you still save about $20 versus buying both items separately even with the current deals. So, you’re saving either way with this bundle. What makes it so great is that you can begin using your Echo Show 5 right away to control smart lighting. Otherwise, you’d have to purchase smart bulbs separately and make sure they’re compatible with Alexa.
Talking a little more about the Echo Show, it features a 5.5-inch display so you can see alerts, updates, news, and weather — rather than just listening to Alexa audibly call it out. With enhanced audio, including deeper bass and clearer treble, you can watch shows, and movies, listen to music, podcasts, and much more all on the device. But you can also see more with the built-in camera, allowing you to check in on your home remotely. Say you’re on vacation, you can check on your pets. Video calling also allows you to stay connected to friends and family.
As for the smart bulb, the TP-Link Tapo uses 2.4GHz WiFi to communicate. Once it’s installed, connected, and ready to go, you can use your new Alexa-enabled Echo Show 5 to turn it on and off without every touching the switch. It’s all done via smart home tech. You can even use the Alexa app on your phone to adjust settings, schedule on and off times, and more.
Normally, this bundle would cost you $115, but thanks to Prime Big Deal Days it’s down to just $50. That’s a remarkable deal, it really is. This is also a great way to kickstart your smart home if you don’t already have any smart products installed.
