But most of the time, these indelible snapshots of your life are inhabiting the storage space in your phone rent-free when you could be putting them to use. Obviously, you’ve shared some of these photos on social media so your friends and family could reflect, maybe feel a little teary. A new addition called Custom Sounds, meanwhile, can effectively train the system for alerts by asking the device to listen.How many photos have you taken on your phone? And how many of those do you actually view every now and then? We don’t just mean any old photos, like the kind you snap on a tired Monday morning on your way to work and post to Instagram with the caption: “Wake me up when it's Friday.” We mean memorable photos, valuable photos-from vacations, reunions, anniversaries, holidays, and long weekends. At launch, the offering was designed to detect specific noises, such as broken glass or crying baby, at which point it sends an alert to the account holder.
15 DIGITAL PHOTOFRAME UPDATE
The Show 15 sports an update to the Sound Detection feature that rolled out in beta earlier this year. Given Amazon’s long track record with face recognition, however, the feature will still, no doubt, raise concerns among privacy advocates. The custom-built chip is designed to do much of the processing on-board, which means it won’t send Visual ID data to the cloud. The display is powered by Amazon’s newly announced quad-core AZ2 chip with an on-board neural processor - the successor to last year’s AZ1. I anticipate the feature will become ubiquitous across the company’s various Show products with built-in cameras. Users can delete their profile on-device or via the Alexa app if they have second thoughts. When Amazon announced the feature last year, they were quick to note that it wasn’t using specific facial details for the tracking.Īmazon is quick to note here that Visual ID requires the user to opt-in and enroll their face. Of course, I was also the guy who was supremely weirded out by the Echo Show 10’s face pivot feature, so take that as you will. There’s a physical shutter button on board to cover the camera - but anecdotally, I’d say that if I was staying at an Airbnb with one of these installed, I would be the guy who unplugs the thing and turns it to face the wall. Will be interesting to see if Amazon goes more aggressively after IT departments here. When not in use, it could give you the weather and corporate events or room bookings on the calendar.
I could see a product like this serving as a (relatively) low cost teleconferencing device for companies with a tight budget and numerous conference rooms. The device can be used to video chat, which could ultimately make the product an interesting proposition as Amazon pushing its Alexa for Business offering as a method for incorporating more of its hardware into work settings.

Those will probably do the trick for short clips, but you’re probably going to want to connect to another Echo or Bluetooth speaker if you intend to stream music or watch movies or TV for any length of time.

That last one is coming soon, along with content from TikTok, which you can now watch on a 15.6-inch screen, if that’s your thing. That includes streaming Prime Video, Netflix, Hulu and Sling TV. Really, it’s the dream of something like the cover of Samsung’s smart refrigerators, without having to having to shell out a few thousand bucks for an appliance with some cameras built-in.īeyond that, the device can do pretty much anything you’d expect from an Echo Show at this point, essentially working as a big kitchen TV. That means you can get a whole bunch of different information at once, though a tiling effect or the use of picture in picture, when your in a specific service and, say, a video doorbell alert pops up. One thing the Echo Show 15 has in spades is a whole lot of real estate.

The list also includes smart home controls, including feeds from security cameras and digital doorbells, which are housed as a single widget. This is largely accomplished through customizable widgets, which let you add things like calendar events, to-do lists and recipes - effectively serving as a kind of digital whiteboard or collection of refrigerator magnets. The experience is built around a customizable home screen designed to serve as kind of a control panel for the Alexa home ecosystem.
