Here's a quick description to recap the Amazon Echo's main features:
This Bluetooth speaker does more than just play your music. It has an array of seven microphones that use beam-forming technology to hear you from any direction and from far distances, even when music is playing. It uses your voice commands to fetch news & information (local radio stations, NPR, and ESPN), music (Amazon Music Library, Prime Music, TuneIn, and iHeartRadio), weather, and more, and reads it back to you. The brains of the operation reside in Amazon's cloud server (which you access via WiFi), so it will be able to be continually updated with better services and information.
- Can be used for Information, music, audiobooks, news, weather, traffic, sports
- 360¼ omni-directional audio
- Compatible with Belkin WeMo and Philips Hue
- Plays music from Amazon Music, Prime Music, Pandora, iHeartRadio, TuneIn
