What Is Amazon Echo?

Amazon Echo is a range of hands-free speakers and devices that can be controlled with your voice. They feature a personal assistant called Alexa, who will perform various tasks for you and control various systems.

There are microphones within Echo devices, which feature enhanced noise cancellation and far-field voice recognition, meaning you can ask Alexa a question from any direction, even when playing music, and she should still hear you.

Amazon Echo's personal assistant will respond to the wake word "Alexa". If you have more than one Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Show or another Alexa-enabled device in your home like the Sonos One, Alexa will respond from the device closest to you. She is always listening for your command, but it is possible to turn the microphone off on Echo devices and devices like the Sonos One speaker if you want some privacy.

Alexa will play music, provide information, deliver news and sports scores, tell you the weather, control your smart home and even allow Prime members to order products they've ordered before. She updates through the cloud automatically and learns all the time. The more you use Echo devices, the more Alexa adapts to your speech patterns, vocabulary, and personal preferences.
