With Halloween creeping up soon, Amazon released an adorably spooky limited-edition Jack Skellington Echo Dot. Anytime the Echo Dot glows, it'll light up Jack Skellington's smile to give him an eerie Halloween grin. And, while it's a new release, it's on sale for 30% off.
The Jack Skellington Echo Dot comes as a bundle that includes one Echo Dot (fifth generation) inside a removable Jack Skellington shell to transform your Alexa-powered speaker into everyone's favorite skeleton from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
You have the option to choose any of the classic Echo Dot colors — Charcoal, Deep Sea Blue and Glacier White. An opening at the top of the shell leaves the Echo Dot's control features accessible, which is a design element if you're a fan of the tap-to-snooze alarm feature. Note that the bundle is in high demand, so delivery won't be available until November 1 through 15.
Alternatively, the limited-edition Jack Skellington shell is sold separately if you already have an Echo Dot (just note that's it's only compatible with the 4th or 5th generation Echo Dots, and unlike the bundle, it's not on sale. Delivery is also available as soon as November 1). Because the shell is removable, you can swap it out for another decorative Echo accessory or fully remove it to reveal the Echo Dot in its minimal glory. Both the bundle and shell were released on Amazon Prime Big Deal Days 2024.
The Echo Dot is a best-selling smart speaker that has impressed shoppers and GH staffers alike. In fact, the Lab experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute named the 4th generation of the Echo Dot their best overall smart speaker in a recent roundup. They were impressed with the smart speaker's ease of use, optimal sound quality and ability to reach high volume. In our tests, our experts discovered that the sound quality was a bit better than the Google Home. And in addition to playing music, you can call family and friends (if they also have an Echo Dot), ask about the news and weather and set reminders.
