Amazon Big Deal Days is October 7-8, and Lifehacker is sharing the best bargains, based on product reviews, comparisons, and price-tracking tools.
You have to be careful with sales; retailers will often jack up the prices before the sale to make the discount seem big—but that is not the case with these Echo smart glasses. Amazon really seems to be trying to unload a serviceable-but-unpopular product, so they’re selling ’em for very cheap. The Big Deals day price is $119.99, marked down from $329.99. That’s a 64% savings on perfectly respectable audio sunglasses and prescription-ready frames.
These are Gen 3 Echo glasses that came out in 2023, so they’re not hopelessly outdated, they just didn’t sell as well as Amazon might have hoped. But they’re not bad. They connect hands-free with any Alexa devices, so you can bark out “Hey, Alexa” and use Amazon’s agent like you would on any device—play some music, answer a question, control your smart home—all that stuff, right from your glasses.
Are they as cool and useful as Ray-Ban Metas? Not even close, but nobody is selling Metas for $119. I mean, that’s a low price for a pair of dumb glasses that don’t do anything but help you see better, so if you’re in the market for a second pair of eyeglasses or sunglasses, and/or you use Alexa, I recommend taking advantage of this deal.
