[Official] Amazon Reveals $230 Touchscreen 'Echo Show' Launching in June

[-DMP-]

Amazon today debuted an all-new touchscreen Echo device, which it's calling the "Echo Show," following a report from yesterday that said the company was gearing up to debut the new Echo as soon as today. As was expected, the Echo Show is a smart home speaker system that has all of the features of the basic Echo system with an additional 7-inch touchscreen.

With the addition of a touchscreen, Amazon said that users will be able to watch video flash briefings and YouTube, see music lyrics, check on security cameras, swipe through photos, view weather forecasts, make to-do and shopping lists, and more. Far-field voice recognition, eight microphones, beam-forming technology, and noise cancellation allow users to be heard from anywhere in the room, as well as over loud music coming from the Echo Show itself.

Just saw the updated app

Just saw it only works to call or text other Alexa device owners, that means I can only hit up my moms since I got her the Tap

Why would anyone want an intrusive gadget like that

I just hope they dont stop buuilding on the original echo, there is so much potential.. I only like it for the "smart home" functions.. I know one day my "smart home" will turn on me and try to kill me but i think this is the wave for the future
