For example, you can still hook the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones for sale in Amazon, Best Buyand Aim from $249 ($50 off), which is still the best price we've seen on the wireless earbuds since they made their debut earlier this fall. They're not all that different from last year's QC Earbuds II in terms of fit and finish, but they add a new immersive audio component and improved fins that allow for better stability. Then there's noise cancellation, which, despite fierce competition from companies like Sony, Samsung and Apple, remains second to none.
Amazon's new Echo Hub is on the way, although at this point in 2023, it's probably safe to assume it will no longer ship “later this year.” Fortunately, he Echo Show 8 3rd generation – which is Amazon's first display to function as a full-fledged smart home hub – is still on sale at Amazon, Best Buyand The House Store for $104.99 ($45 off), matching the all-time low it first set during Black Friday.
If you already own a second-generation Echo Show 8, then the latest model is likely to be a tough sell, as some of the more useful display additions (ahem, widgets) are also being implemented on the older model. However, the new Show 8 is snappier thanks to Amazon's AZ2 chip and features a redesigned speaker array with support for spatial audio, making it sound significantly better than previous models. What's more, it is now a Zigbee and Thread edge router, as well as a Matter controller. This means that, once set up, you can use the screen to control almost any smart device in your home.
Now, combine the above with the fact that the third-generation Echo Show 8 adjusts what's on the screen depending on how close you are, and it's easy to see why Amazon's latest Alexa display is now the best.
