We were surprised to see Prime Day price cuts return this week… to Best Buy. The 60-hour sale started at 10 a.m. PT Tuesday and ran through Thursday evening, and most deals are now gone like whispers in the wind. But a few stragglers remain, so if you missed your chance to buy an Amazon Foire TV Recast, Echo Show 5 or Echo Auto, the window hasn’t fully closed. These current Best Buy prices remain far less than what you’d pay at Amazon proper.
The savings listed are compared to the prices on Amazon at the time of this writing. As always, prices and inventory are subject to change.
Don’t see anything you want here? Don’t worry — more sales are coming, including Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

If you want a display for video chatting, watching Netflix or just using as a smart alarm clock, the Show 5 — the smallest smart display from Amazon — is a great little gadget. Last year on Prime Day, the Echo Show 5 bottomed out at $50. This year, it got as low as $45, and Best Buy is now matching that price if you missed it last week.

The Amazon Echo Auto is a clever little device that ports Alexa into your car, letting the voice assistant speak and play music through your stereo. At $30 off, the Echo Auto is a solid deal for anyone wanting to smarten up their non-voice-equipped car.

If you still pull in live TV over the air, you can record shows and watch them any time with the Fire TV Recast DVR. This version has a 500GB hard drive (a full 1TB version is also available) with two tuners, so you can record two shows at once.

Normally a Ring Video Doorbell runs for $200, and the Echo Show 5 smart display goes for $90. The same bundle is currently selling for $275 on Amazon. But Best Buy is offering the doorbell for $140, and tossing in the smart display for just $10 more. If you’re looking to jump-start a smart home around a video doorbell, this deal is one of the best you’ll find.

Amazon’s entry-level smart speaker is back down to $19, which is as low as these things tend to go. Just keep in mind this is not the new 2020 spherical model — that one hasn’t even been released yet.

Amazon’s biggest, loudest and best-sounding speaker is your choice for a smart speaker that needs to fill a room. It works great with a range of audio from action movies to music. It also supports Dolby Atmos and Fire TV. This speaker is likely to make almost anyone (with the exception of dedicated audiophiles) quite happy.

Amazon’s Echo Flex is a clever little gadget, adding Alexa to a modular smart plug design. The plug itself can attach various augmentations, like an LED clock, a motion sensor or a night light. To get this little device, plus all of Alexa’s smarts, for only $10, is a solid deal.
