The Echo Plus facilities all of a new higher-end sound facilities built into a new Echo, along with a built-in intelligent home hub that aims to make a product an even some-more essential partial of a connected home.

Interestingly, a Echo Plus looks a lot some-more like a bizarre Echo than a new one – borrowing a same high and slim plasticky build, rather than a swappable cloth covers. It’s a bizarre preference on Amazon’s part, given what looks to be a pierce toward some-more reward in-home products with a new Echo.
