Amazon has turned its Alexa voice-control assistant into a wider platform. And the Echo Show, which is essentially an Echo with a touchscreen, expands what you can do with Alexa and how useful the service is.However, for £199/$230, we'd like to see more t...
Great design, ideal for recipes and news, lots of third-party Skills to add functionality
No Netflix. No YouTube. Weird, unnecessary video calling addition that means there's yet another camera in your house. It's also really expensive, Rating:
