"Echo audio devices range from inexpensive small speakers to higher-end models like the $219 Echo Studio with immersive spatial sound and Dolby Atmos. There are also numerous third-party speakers with Alexa built-in, including some very high-end audio systems. Amazon also offers Alexa devices with screens ranging from under $60, such as the Echo Show 5 with its 5-inch smart display, to the $400 Echo Show 21″"
"Alexa+ AI Now Alexa is getting smarter thanks to Amazon's own generative AI model, which, although unique, shares characteristics with other GAI models developed by OpenAI, Google, Meta and others. It's available in new Echo devices but may not work with some older models or Alexa-compatible devices from other companies. The new AI version has access to far more information than before and can engage in natural back-and-forth conversations without requiring the wake word ("Alexa") between responses and follow-up questions."
Amazon added its own generative AI model to Alexa, enabling more natural, multi-turn conversations and broader access to information. The AI integration is available on new Echo devices and may be incompatible with some older or third-party Alexa-compatible devices. Echo product lineup ranges from budget speakers to high-end models like the $219 Echo Studio and screen-equipped Echo Show devices from $60 to $400, including a 21″ kitchen hub with Fire TV. Alexa functions on smartphones, PCs, tablets, and Fire Tablets. Amazon also introduced an Echo Dot Kids model with parental controls starting at $34.95.
