Amazon has dropped five new Echo devices
Sometimes life can be hard. You owe it to yourself to make it a little easier where you can.
This could be through making helpful lists, or organising your housework. Or it could be through scheduling your lights, coffee machine, and appliances to turn on and off automatically with the help of a new Echo device.
On a mission to make your life as easy and stress free as possible, Amazon has launched five, yes five, new Echo devices.
Echo Dot is a pretty popular voice-controlled speaker, that now has improved sound and a new design.
You can ask Alexa — your personal guide to the good life — to play music, answer questions, read the news, check the weather, set alarms, control compatible smart home devices, and more. No more pressing stressful buttons for you.
With new speakers with improved sound, a new 10-inch HD screen, a simple smart home setup, and a nice new design, the Echo Show has made some marked improvements.
You can stream content from Spotify and Audible with powerful stereo sound, watch films and TV shows from Prime Video, or make video calls to anyone with an Echo Spot, Echo Show or the Alexa app.
The new Echo Plus has an in-built Zigbee hub so that you can easily set up and control your compatible smart home devices. So making controlling the devices that make your life easier, easier.
Do not stress. Just go ahead and ask Alexa to play music, read the news, check weather forecasts, set alarms and timers, control compatible smart home devices, call anyone with an Echo device, and more. Set up your smart home without a separate hub. There isn’t a lot that isn’t covered.
For those that like their tunes. Echo Sub delivers down-firing, 100W deep bass sound through a 6-inch woofer.
Pair one of these with one Echo or Echo Plus and you can enjoy dynamic music that fills the room. Pair with two of the same compatible Echo devices for rich left/right stereo sound.
For a real step into the future, the Amazon Smart Plug. It works with Alexa to add voice control to any electrical socket. So you can schedule pretty much anything to turn on and off automatically. You can even control them remotely when you’re away.
