With the possibility of getting an Echo Dot or Echo Pop for far cheaper than usual with Amazon Prime Day, some have been wondering what is the difference.

And even if the difference is small, which is the better smart speaker? Amazon's Echo Dot has proven to be very popular and the online retailer decided to expand its tech family with the smaller and cheaper Echo Pop.

The main, obvious difference is the Echo Pop doesn't have the same 360 degree audio as the speaker is on one side rather than the spherical design of the Echo Dot. But many have commented on how the sound quality for both is very good considering their prices.

Both the Dot and Pop have access to Alexa - the smart assistant that can help you set timers, check your smart doorbell and can speak to other Alexa products in your home should you have them. Favourable Echo Pop reviews have said: "I love Amazon Alexa echo speakers because they're incredibly good value and easy to setup as multi room speakers."

While another added: "Imagine my disappointment when I took it out the box, they have just cut an Echo Dot 5th gen in half. I turned volume up to max, let’s just say the sound does not pop."
