Improved sound over other Echo devices, Still the king of smart home skills, Alexa is increasingly capable
Sonos One sounds better, Design looks dated next to 2nd-gen Echo, High price compared to other Echos
Is it possible for a gadget to be both truly wonderful and a little underwhelming? Yes it is - and the Amazon Echo Plus is proof. This is a supremely smart speaker which could easily run your whole home, and is also the best-sounding Echo device ever. Wh...

Abstract: Despite what you may have read, the Amazon Echo was never a do-anything smart home device. Sure it could tell you about the weather and maybe control your lights, but it lacked the under-the-hood hub capabilities that could make all your connected devices...
Built-in smart home hub eliminates the need for a bridge between Alexa and your smart home devices, Seamless pairing with Zigbee compatible smart lights, switches, and plugs, Three color choices (black, white, and silver) available, Multi-room audio featu

Smart home hub integration, Powerful sound
Old Amazon Echo look
It's a shame the old look remains, but don't judge this book by its cover: the Amazon Echo Plus is a powerful smart speaker that will make your home smarter in the easiest way possible...

Zigbee support build in, design remains unchanged, Alexa smarts
Same design as the original Echo
The Amazon Echo Plus in design is more akin to the original Amazon Echo and while is an upgrade from the original model, it's really about making smart home connectivity much easier rather than upgrading things like the design or the speaker.On the surfac...
