Skype calling coming to Amazon Echo and other Alexa devices

When you arrive at a very new user experience paradigm first, as Amazon has, you have the advantage of a head start and a lot of green field in front of you. Another bundle features the Echo Sub with two new Echo Plus devices for £239.97. That’s because the firm has released a wireless subwoofer, dubbed the Echo Sub. That way you can launch Alexa on your Windows 10 PCs.

“Customers only use a fraction of the features” of a microwave, Amazon said. The point is, the new products provide choice, and in turn, open up even more ways that Amazon can sneak into your life.

Soon, you will also be able to friend, follow, and DATE people all in one place thanks to Facebook Dating, at least if you’re in Colombia. Otherwise, Alexa won’t work. My colleague Cork Gaines put an Echo Dot in his auto for months and called it “the best infotainment system we’ve ever used”.

An overhauled Echo Dot smart speaker boasts much-improved sound and design while keeping the $50 price tag of the original. The device looks even better with a new covering.

The Echo Plus is also getting an update. As a result, the e-commerce giant is launching a live recording Fire TV Recast. The company’s CarPlay software allows an automobile’s dashboard screen to act as a display and a controller for selected features and content on the iPhone.

For the time being, the Echo Sub will only be compatible with either the Amazon Echo (2nd gen) or the Amazon Echo Plus (2nd gen).

The device is up for preorders at $230.

Amazon will also give you the chance to buy an Alexa Microwave. Keep in mind that the Skills option will function only if you have set up your Echo device. To put it simply, it is an Echo without a speaker integration. “The new Echo Dot is now 70 percent louder”. The rumored pricing of the two versions could be somewhere around $300 and $400. You’ll get 30 days free (if you’re a student, you get 6 months), and then it’s $119/year (or $59/year for students).

At the same time that Amazon is introducing new devices, it isn’t leaving behind the rest of the Echo family.

The takeaway: The Smart Plug is a really easy and convenient way to make non-smart devices act like smart devices.

It is your smart security camera that you can install anywhere inside or outside your home. The device can be used for Skype-chatting and costs $229. Those with a dash-mounted smartphone can see the directions displayed as well as hear verbal directions, similar to Global Positioning System devices.

Amazon held a private event today where a series of new Alexa devices were unveiled. Those addicted to the tech used for their needs either the Alexa app installed on their smartphones or via the integrated service provided by a very limited number of vehicle manufacturers. Privacy is taken seriously, and no one will know that you’re dating online without your permission.
