What can an Echo do?
All Echo devices are designed to utilize Amazon Alexa's AI superpowers — it's just a matter of which form you want your Echo to take. Depending on the device you choose, your Echo may simply have an audio output (whether that's music, phone calls, calendar reminders, or news alerts). These devices are known as the Amazon Echo or Amazon Echo Dot (they're both essentially smart speakers). Amazon Echo Show devices, on the other hand, can do all of the aforementioned audio stuff, but they also boast colorful displays of varying sizes to help you visually manage your day, make video calls, and stream entertainment. Think of Echo Shows as tiny and more affordable tablets, essentially.
Most Echo devices are designed to act as smart hubs within your home, but some Echo devices can also be taken on the road. These types of Echo devices include Echo Buds (Amazon's foray into the wireless earbud space) and Echo Auto, which brings hands-free Alexa functionality to the car.
