Just when you thought you couldn’t get enough Billie Eilish, Amazon this week introduced a Billie Eilish limited-edition Echo Studio—adorned with the young artist’s face staring wistfully back at you. Cover art from Eilish’s sophomore album, Happier Than Ever, wraps around Amazon’s one-of-a-kind smart speaker.
If this is the perfect speaker for your home, then the $229.99 Billie Eilish-themed Echo Studio is available now for preorder and expected to ship in October along with six months of free Amazon Music Unlimited. “I can’t wait for my cutie fans to be able to listen to my new album Happier Than Ever in spatial audio,” Eilish said in a statement.
Once you’ve played the 16-song LP on repeat for half a day, take a break with some other on-brand tasks—automate your day with Alexa by setting up music-inspired Routines—including having the Echo Studio play your favorite Billie Eilish song at a specific time each morning. And stave off boredom by asking Alexa to “play the Billie Eilish Takeover on Amazon Music” or learning “what can I ask Billie Eilish?” Coming soon: special Billie Eilish alarms.
Introduced in 2019, the Echo Studio is Amazon’s appeal to audio enthusiasts who might otherwise pick up a Sonos or Apple HomePod. Its high-end audio chops include Dolby Atmos-like 3D audio, a directional tweeter in front, and a 5.25-inch woofer with a port on the bottom to maximize airflow and bass output. There are also three midrange speakers on the left, right, and top of the device.
