Amazon’s plans for making our homes, lives and even bodies smarter continues at pace, with no less than 15 gadgets just announced at their Autumn extravaganza.
Here’s our picks of the bunch.
Amazon Echo Buds
You’re not a technology manufacturer if you’ve not got a runner in the wireless headset race, and as such Amazon has introduced their effort with the Echo Buds.
5 hours of battery life, noise cancellation borrowed from none other than Bose and support for multiple voice assistants, this piece of kit stands to be the duskier (and more affordable) alternative to Apple’s current fashion statement.
Price: £119.99
Amazon Echo Studio
The Echo range goes Hi-Fi with the Echo Studio, bringing the familiar Alexa experience into the home with its more ergonomic finish from recent iterations and marrying that to some impressive adaptive tech based on location, as well as support for lossless audio formats, Dolby Atmos and 3D spatial audio.
Price: £189.99
Amazon Smart Oven
Sounds wild on the surface but actually one of the most logical implementations of voice-powered tech, the Smart Oven is a glimpse into the future of home appliances.
The sequel to 2018’s Smart Microwave, this effort enables cooking delivery times, can read out recipes as well as take orders for more food whilst you’re in the kitchen.
No-brainer when you think about it…
Amazon Echo Frames
The rumours are true, Amazon’s getting into the wearables-on-your-face game by introducing Alexa-enabled spectacles to ask it plenty of questions and presumably cheat on tests with.
Invitation only and at a cost of $179.99 and then moving up to $249.99, think this is Amazon flexing their technical muscles at what’s possible with intelligent assistants in 2019 as much as anything.
