Amazon is probably working on a new echo
with a screen according to a person
familiar with the plans
this new echo is codenamed Knight and
could officially be revealed next month
this follows a flurry of rumors in 2016
that said Knight may use the same
operating system as the fire tablet the
tablet and fire TV already have Alexa
enabled the person familiar with the
plans couldn't confirm to see net
whether or not it was a touchscreen
regardless the screen could feasibly be
used for anything from video chats to
shopping and would give this echo the
edge against rival voice assistance
Google Chrome recently added support for
understanding multiple users something
that the Amazon devices can't do yet the
echo family is getting pretty big and
it's becoming obvious that Amazon wants
to be in every room of your home the
screen echo could live in your kitchen
for viewing recipes and checking the
news then there's the original echo echo
dot and Amazon tap that can hang out in
your living and dining rooms and the
echo look is chillin in the bedroom it's
a camera with Alexa built-in that
dispenses fashion advice based on your
full-length selfies no word yet on
whether the screen echo will be as
judgmental we'll find out more when the
device is official as soon as next month
