Amazon just unveiled yet another device in its Echo range, as the Echo Spot hit virtual shelves not that long ago. What’s new and exciting? Not a whole lot, but it does offer Alexa capabilities in a small package that also boasts a screen and mic, meaning you can use it for video calls. Other than that, it’s another possibility should you be considering adding an Alexa-equipped device to your pad. The compact build and shape makes it a nice nightstand companion, so maybe stop using your phone as your alarm and allow Echo Spot to handle waking you. Then you can fire off questions as it wakes you up—What’s the weather? Is there traffic?—and then some more when you’re drifting off. If someone you know is in the market for an Echo device, the Echo Spot is one of the sharpest yet.
