Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #1092
Hello there first, let me start off by saying Happy Valentine’s Day, hope you have a wonderful, wonderful day.
Today is Sunday, and we answer questions from the community and we’ve got a great question here today and this is from Barry Smith in the Facebook group.
And if you want to join our Facebook group, by all means, please do so just go to VoiceinCanada.ca/Community.
His question is pretty simple and it says, “Is there a version of the Echo the fourth generation with the Smart Home hub that also has a clock on it?”
Well, very unfortunately, the answer is no, just to explain a little bit to some of the other listeners here, there is the new version, the Echo Dot fourth generation, that is the smaller sphere, that one you can get with a clock in it but it is the smaller version.
The Echo fourth generation, as opposed to the Echo Dot, is the larger sphere, which does have the Smart Home hub in it, but it does not have a clock.
I don’t know if Amazon’s going to ever produce the Echo with a clock
So you kind of have to pick one or the other, you either get the smaller sphere, the Echo Dot with clock, and it has the clock but no home hub, where you get the Echo, the largest sphere with the home hub, but no clock.
So I don’t know if Amazon’s going to ever produce the Echo with a clock that would be very interesting and that would solve your problem very, but unfortunately, the answer to your question is no for now.
So there you go, you’ll have to make a decision there. If anybody would like to purchase one of these, I do have an affiliate link, you just go to VoiceinCanada.ca/ and you type in the name of the device you want.
So for example VoiceinCanada.ca/Echo, or slash Echo Dot with clock and I do earn a small commission if you use that link, however, there’s no extra cost to you whatsoever and so obviously if you use that I thank you very much.
I hope you have a wonderful rest of your weekend and I will talk to you again tomorrow, take care.
