This Mandalorian smart speaker holder has been designed by [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tarotandreading) retailer Slic3DArt for the fourth-generation [Amazon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amazon-echo-show-5-kids) [Echo Dot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/echo-dot-stand) to help give the smart home technology a touch of science fiction-inspired style. The holder has been 3D-printed and positions the spherical speaker into the top section to make it part of the head of the namesake Mandalorian character. This will make the system more eye-catching in the home and provide a touch of whimsy for users to appreciate each day when using the connected speaker to perform digital tasks.

The Mandalorian smart speaker holder won't impair the function of the system, but will block out the light ring at the base to put a stronger focus on the warrior's helmet.
