The rivalry between Amazon Echo and Google Home continues, even during ongoing mega sale events. Both tech giants are going head-to-head by offering steep discounts on smart speakers, wanting more netizens to welcome them into their homes.
As part of its Summer sale, Amazon is looking to one-up Google by offering a flat price cut on its Echo Dot and Echo speaker. The smaller Echo Dot is now available for Rs 2,999 (discounted by Rs 1,500) and the bigger Echo is taking on Google Home at Rs 7,999 (discounted by Rs 2,000).
In addition, you can grab 10 percent cashback of up to Rs 1,500 using ICICI credit and debit cards or up to Rs 300 on your Amazon Pay balance. This means you grab the Echo Dot for an effective price of Rs 2,700 and the Echo for Rs 7,200.
Well, for those unaware, Amazon Echo is a smart speaker that you can control via your voice. You simply need to direct Amazon’s AI assistant Alexa to play music, make calls, check weather and news, set alarms, control smart home devices, and much more. The smart speaker sports seven always-listening microphones that can catch your voice even in noisy environments.
Finally, it all boils down to your preference. Are you more inclined to welcome Alexa or Google Assistant into your living room?
