Prime Day is about to get underway, but the discounts have already started creeping in. From Apple products to robot vacuums, you can find a discount on just about anything.

And Amazon has been discounting its own products, including the Echo Show 5. Normally $99.99, you can save $40 on this handy smart home hub at the new price of $59.99. It comes in three colors: glacier white, charcoal, and cloud blue, so you can blend it seamlessly into your home decor.

This device gives you a compact screen for checking things like the weather, catching up on the news, or putting on some music. You can stream from services including Amazon Music and Spotify, or from Prime Video if you want to watch shows and movies.

It also has a built-in 2MP camera. You can use this for video calls or to keep an eye on things at home when you're out. And when you don't need it, the screen can double as a digital photo frame with rotating slideshows. Prime members also get unlimited cloud photo storage for their pictures.

This Echo Show deal is available at Amazon right now.
