Why we like it

The Echo Dot is the perfect compact home speaker to enjoy your free subscription to Amazon Music Unlimited. The Echo Dot focuses on providing vibrant sound with deep base and clear vocals. Control the volume on the speaker itself or ask Alexa to handle it for you. While you're at it, feel free to ask her about the weather or to set a timer on your latest baking creation. The Echo Dot can also be your alarm clock — which is perfect if one of your 2024 resolutions was to charge your phone outside of the bedroom at night.

Why we like it

If you're looking for a do-it-all speaker/screen combo, the Echo Show 10 is the device for you. Mashable's RJ Andersen reviewed the Echo Show 10 and found it to be a great option for those new to Echo devices. While the base serves as the speaker, the attached screen allows you to stream your favorite shows or tunes. The screen can move with you which makes following a recipe in the kitchen seamless and always nearby. When it comes to enjoying your free access to Amazon Music Unlimited, Andersen says the sound quality is "surprisingly good."
