Amazon’s Echo Show 21 is making waves in the smart home sector with its all-encompassing features and now you can pick one up for £257.49 ($319.99) — that's a whopping $80 discount off its usual price of $399.99. The 21-inch display acts not just as a smart home hub but also as a kitchen TV, digital calendar, and even a recipe repository.

Equipped with a Matter and Thread controller, the Echo Show 21 offers local control for compatible devices through voice commands or widgets. Its auto-framing camera ensures you always stay in frame during video calls. For those who prefer not to mount it on the wall, Best Buy is selling the adjustable stand separately at £84.99 ($99.99), a discount of £35 (£36). The stand allows for tilting up to 30 degrees and full 360-degree rotation.

The Echo Show 21 stands out with its unique smart home controls, supporting Zigbee, Matter, and Thread protocols. It comes with decent speakers suitable for music and other audio needs. The built-in voice remote can control streaming services or media but lacks the ability to interact with widgets or Alexa skills. A 13-megapixel camera ensures clear video calls, thanks to its auto-framing feature.

The panel is designed for wall-mounting, though an adjustable stand from Best Buy allows flexibility in placement. Whether you’re integrating it into your kitchen countertop or setting it on a bookshelf, the Echo Show 21 offers versatility and convenience in managing your smart home.
