The Amazon Echo Spot has reached the UK, Germany and Austria. Well, it’s on Amazon’s site anyway and you can pre-order today, but shipping will start on January 24. You may still want to order now as there’s a promo if you buy two.

One Echo Spot costs £120 in the Uk or €130 in Germany and in Austria but a pack of two is £200/€220 instead. That’s with the code SPOT2PACK.
Last year Amazon enabled calling and messaging on Echo devices in the UK, Germany and Austria. That used to mean voice calls, but the Spot has a camera and a round screen so you can make video calls with it too.

It does everything the cheaper Echo Dot does, complete with a built-in 2W speaker (Bluetooth and 3.5mm out are available if you want more oomph). When not in use, Echo’s screen doubles as a night clock. Or you can use to look through compatible Wi-Fi enabled security cameras
