Alexa, you might know, is the female persona inhabiting the Echo, a Wi-Fi-enabled black cylinder about the size of a Pringles can, which you prime to answer your questions or perform services by invoking her name. âAlexa â¦ whatâs the weather,â etc. etc. I was given a $179 Echo last year as a gift, and a $49 Echo Dot â a squashed down version endowed with a lousier speaker but equipped with Bluetooth capability â as another gift for Fatherâs Day.
Amazonâs Alexa-controlled Echo speaker is a wireless speaker. But itâs capable of much more.
