As usual, it is Alexa-enabled so users can issue voice commands and initiate calls hands-free. Although, there is currently no official Skype support yet, Amazon promises it will arrive soon. For now, users can contact anyone with an Alexa app, an Echo Spot, or another Echo Show directly.

It can also be used to watch videos with Hulu and Prime video support. It is also possible to set up compatible Zigbee devices without the need for a separate hub. Users can see their front door camera stream with 2-way audio and notifications.

Best of all, there are eight microphones and far-field technology built-in. So users do not need to worry about having to shout over the music blaring to issue commands.
