Amazon Echo Dot 3 now 99p for Music Unlimited members with Prime
In a bold and massively successful move earlier this week, Spotify’sgave awayGoogle Nest Mini speakers for free to new and existing Premium subscribers. While the offer is no longer available due to high demand, it certainly caught Amazon’s attention – which has now replicated its own version of the deal.
The e-commerce behemoth is now offering new and existing Amazon Music Unlimited members on Amazon Primethe Echo Dot 3 for 99p. This brings the total cost to £8.98 if you’re a new subscriber to Amazon’s paid music streaming service.
Amazon Music Unlimited costs £7.99 to Prime members and £9.99 for non-Prime members, but you cantry the service out for free for 30 days.
Sure 99p isn’t quite as attractive as free, but that does hack a hefty £49 off the £49.99 RRP on the Echo Dot 3 (which, by the way, is onsale for £29.99if you just want the device on its own).
It’s undoubtedly a well-timed offer on Amazon’s part, filling the void for anyone who missed out on Spotify’s deal, while also enticing students to join the Prime ecosystem as the back to school season kicks off.
More interestingly, it provides a real incentive to sign up to Amazon Prime ahead of its Prime Day event, which isrumoured to happen in Octoberthis year.
Head to Amazon tocheck out its Echo Dot 3 dealright now. You can also sign up for a30-day free trial of Amazon Primeto make the most of the offer.
