AMAZON ECHO (4th GENERATION)

The Amazon Echo is the “standard” Alexa device. This one has better speakers than the Echo Dot (i.e. Dolby sound), providing better sound quality when Alexa is “serenading” you! Other than that, functions are the same. It’s also a little bigger than the Dot.

The Amazon Echo Show 8 is the mid-range Echo device with a screen. This allows access multi-modal skills (i.e. audio and video), everything from checking weather and calendars, to viewing security and nursery cameras.
