Amazon recently released the Echo Show 21, a huge smart display with a slew of features. As the name implies, this smartphone has a 21-inch display. It’s also wall-mountable, just like the previous Echo Show 15.
The monitor has a 1080p resolution, which won’t win any prizes, but the audio quality appears to be significantly improved over prior generations. The Echo Show 21 should be capable of “delivering immersive sound, double the bass and room adaption technology.”
The camera has been updated, with “more than double the field of view and 65% more zoom than the first-generation Echo Show 15.” It also appears that the auto-framing algorithm has been improved. This device might be a beast for video calls, as it now includes enhanced methods for reducing annoying ambient noise.
There is an integrated smart home hub that supports Wi-Fi 6E, Thread, Zigbee, and Matter control. According to the business, the device should be able to modify local settings such as lighting, switches, and plugs. This function initially appeared in the Echo Hub, which was unveiled last year.
The panel can function as a Fire TV, which is nothing new and is compatible with Amazon’s Fire TV remote. However, the Echo Show 21 comes with the Alexa Voice Remote and wall-mounting hardware. The countertop stand is offered separately. The smart display costs $400 and is available today.
The Echo Show 15 has also been updated for individuals with limited wall or countertop space. The new model includes all of the features listed above but in a smaller form factor. This one costs $300 and is available right now.
