Amazon's amazing Echo Dot with Clock deals is now out of stock – but here's how you can still get it

After the Echo Dot with Clock? UK shoppers may have been disheartened visiting the Amazon product page for the 2019 smart speaker, which melds the convenience of the 3rd-generation Echo Dot with a handy time-telling display – but despite the retailer claiming the gadget is out of stock until December 27, it looks like there's still a way to get it in the Amazon Black Friday sales (and quickly, too).

The workaround comes in the form of Prime Now – the Amazon app designed specifically for swift same-day delivery – which still has the Echo Dot with Clock available, and can deliver to your home in matter of hours. That's a lot sooner than late December, isn't it?

You will however need an Amazon Prime membership, which in the UK costs £7.99 per month, or £79 for the year.

How to get the Echo Dot with Clock

If you click on the deal above, you'll be taken to the Prime Now page. Delivery will cost an extra £3.99 through the Prime Now app – compared to the free UK delivery we had seen in the main Amazon website – though if you bring your basket total up to £40 with another product (maybe two Echo Dots?) you'll get delivery for free:

"£15.00 or more is required to place an order from Amazon [Prime Now]. 2-hour delivery is £3.99 for orders under £40.00."

Prime Now is a shopping service that now includes Morrisons in the UK as well as Amazon, with all kinds of products from gadgets and toys to your groceries – though not quite the whole Amazon catalogue. The app can also be downloaded from Google Play or the App Store, and is available across London, Birmingham, Newcastle, Portsmouth, Sheffield, Manchester, Leeds, and Liverpool – as well as some areas of Hampshire, Berkshire, Surrey, and Yorkshire. 

If you're in doubt about whether you're in the catchment area, click on the deal above and see if your shipping details are accepted at checkout.

Not in the UK, or don't want to sign up for Amazon Prime? Here are the best Amazon Echo deals to consider instead:

The future of Magic Leap's promising AR efforts dim after layoffs

The Magic Leap Two is now further away than ever, unfortunately. Today in a blog post the augmented reality pioneer announced major layoffs and has decided to cut up to half of its workforce, according to some reports. The original Magic Leap One was supposed to be one of the first mainstream augmented reality headsets when it launched in 2018, but a high price point and lack of interest from developers left the headset high and dry after launch. According to the blog post, Magic Leap says it will be focusing its efforts on enterprise solutions (a statement HTC has made recently as well) and shift its focus away from consumer technology… at least for the time being.  The company has been open about creating a second headset that would offer improved specs for some time, but how that work will now have to go forward without half of the team , according to some estimates, remains to be seen. Is the window closing on augmented reality?  Although it’s just one company, Magic...

Airship acquires SMS commerce company ReplyBuy

Airship is announcing that it has acquired mobile commerce startup ReplyBuy . The startup (which was a finalist at TechCrunch’s 1st and Future competition in 2016) works with customers like entertainment venues and professional and college sports teams to send messages and sell tickets to fans via SMS. It raised $4 million in funding from Sand Hill Angels, Kosinski Ventures, SEAG Ventures, Enspire Capital, MRTNZ Ventures and others, according to Crunchbase .

While sports and concerts tickets might not be a booming market right now, Caine suggested that the company is actually seeing increased purchasing activity “in and around the Airship platform” as businesses try to drive more in-app purchases. He also suggested that both the COVID-19 pandem...
